The Alpha’s Contract novel Chapter 534

Neah

They continue to stare at me. We had all been focussed on why Serkan wanted me, that we hadn’t considered the smaller detail of the role Cooper had played.

“Silas saved the people Cooper had imprisoned.” I frown, trying to piece it together. “He said Cooper had been a pain in his ass. Cooper told Eris stories about Silas. Almost like he wanted the information to get back to us.”

“He also told her that Silas was an Alpha.” Damien mutters

“What if Cooper wasn’t talking about being an Alpha of White Cliffs?” I mumble, glancing up at my mate. “What if he was saying that Silas shares your blood. He carries Alpha genes just like you, Raven and Jenson. We all know that Cooper was very good with his words. They always had a different meaning.”

“He’s my twin. Whether he was raised that way or not. He still carries our family’s blood. So yes, it could be what he was talking about.”

“You think Serkan is using Silas in more ways than one?” Damien asks

I puff out my cheeks. “I was raised on lies. Led to believe that I was something entirely different. It wasn’t until Dane noticed there were errors in what I was telling him that we started to pick apart my past, but I never lied. It was my truth. It was what I was raised to believe. What if it is the same for him?”

I don’t give them a chance to answer “Silas already told us that he was trained to learn everything about Kitsons so that he was ready for the day he found me. When I turned down the invitation, Serkan changed the rules.”

“And he didn’t like that.” Dane adds

“But then there is Cooper. The one man who was capable of blocking his connection to me. If Silas knew of him, I would put money on Serkan knowing him.”

“Silas could be lying.” Samara shrugs her shoulders

“Then you have the added question of how did he know who you were when he had never met you before.” Damien tells me. “You came out of the bathroom at the restaurant and called you family.”

“I think he saw me with Dane. He said he could smell my power.”

“It’s not hard.” Damien smirks. “I don’t believe you have reached your full potential yet, either.”

“Can you link Silas?” I ask Dane.

"But...?"

"Originally, it was my idea and it was only an option. I am grateful for you being onboard, but Damien is family. If something happens to you, Damien will more than likely go Rogue.” I was certain of it. He had been so much happier with her than he had been in ages. I wondered if he had talked to her about that part of his life.

"Plus you have only just started training."

“But you can’t go.” she protests

I glance over to Dane who is watching me with a raised brow. Even if I wanted to, I don’t think I stood a chance of going.

‘You would be right.’ His voice echoes inside my head.

I ignore him as Nyx delights in his need to protect me. Returning my attention to Samara. “Instead of going to him, I want him to come here. If he wants me that badly, he can come for me himself instead of sending someone else to do the job.”
