Contract Beta Chapter 43
Eric-“I will do everything I can.” I vowed to both of them.Looking at the cage, I didn’t see a lock or anything I could break into. From the looks of it, the cage was dropped over her. There had to be a weak point of entry though, somewhere so I could get in and release her.I could sense both Leilani and her wolf looking at me. The hope I saw in both of their gazes made me feel a bit of pressure, being that I didn’t want to let either of them down. More than anything, I couldn’t believe I had finally met her wolf.Desmond was practically leaping up for joy in my mind. Which only made me wonder if this was how he acted when he was a pup. It seemed weird to even think that he was once a pup, considering I have only known him as a full-grown wolf.It was something I was going to have to ask him about sometime. For right now, I needed to focus on getting our mate out. I wasn’t sure what kind of metal was used to cage her, but it didn’t look like anything I have seen before.There had t

Leilani- My back and front burned from squeezing through the bars, but I wasn’t about to let Eric know about it. I watched as Eric’s wolf seemed to be dancing around. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust that something was attacking, I just didn’t see anything.“This was why I didn’t want you here.” My wolf spoke to me, causing me to remember that I was in the cage with her.Turning towards her, I could see the way the barbed wires dug into her flesh. Maybe while I was in here, I could help get her free of them. I didn’t care how bad it hurt me, I had to do something to help.“Because I can’t see them?” I asked, keeping my attention on the wires, and trying to locate the best one to start with.“No, but that makes it worse. I don’t understand why you can’t see them. I see them just fine.” She responded.Finding a wire that seemed the easiest to get to, I reached out to touch it. Just like the cage, it burned my fingers. Looking around, I saw the tools Eric had brought with him, still in the

Eric-The snicker on his face was filled with contempt. It was clear that nothing I said or did would lessen the hold of whoever he was sent by. I could see it in his eyes that he wasn’t being controlled, he was doing so at his own accord.“Does it matter who sent me? You do not belong here, so I am here to end you.” The male snarled.“Why don’t we belong here?” I heard Leilani ask from the cage.I was glad she was still in there because I didn’t want to take any chances. He may be held captive right now, but the strength he showed me was nothing short of amazing. It wasn’t like he was the first shifter crow I have faced, yet he was far the strongest.In fact, I was sure that he had the help of a witch making him stronger. If it hadn’t been for the serpents to lend a hand, I had begun to think I was in over my head. I still wasn’t sure where they had come from though, although I suspected Leilani was responsible.“Little hybrid, you do belong. It is the wolf that doesn’t.” He responde
Contract Beta Chapter 46
Leilani-I hadn’t expected for Eric to just take off like he did and attack. I still wasn’t sure what I was supposed to do. Maybe I needed to try to figure out how I made the snakes appear and try to do it again, or maybe something else that wouldn’t make me completely useless.Jumping down from my wolf, I watched as Eric took on my old pack so effortlessly. Maybe I could just watch, get some ideas or something. There wasn’t much I could go off though, since I have yet to shift into my wolf.“Stop worrying about things and focus. You will find your answers within.” Violet spoke.The second she stopped talking, she took off towards the pack to give Eric a hand. I was far enough away that I wasn’t in their way or in danger. If my wolf and my mate could do this, then so could I. I hope.Lowering myself to the ground, I sat with my legs crossed. I needed to focus, although it was a bit hard to do. My mind was racing with the possibility I have placed Eric, my wolf, and myself in danger. T

Leilani-When we arrived in the north field, this time I wasn’t attempting to sneak around. I wanted Archer to know I have come for him. After the last encounter with him, I wasn’t sure it would be a welcoming visit.“So, explain to me why we are about to release a dragon?” Eric asked as we made our way toward the volcano.“Because he needs to know that I am not going to leave him here. Apparently, long ago my soul was cursed by a witch, for loving you. Except it wasn’t you exactly, it was a version of yourself. According to,” I paused, not sure how to explain this without it sounded strange.“Let’s just say it was me, but from long ago. This witch, the one you mentioned earlier, had also been in love with you. Back then I was just a witch, and each time I had died, I had been reborn. It wasn’t until this time I was reborn as a werewolf, but because of my soul, my powers came with me.” I wasn’t sure if I was making any sense to him, but he didn’t interrupt.“Once I fully accepted the

Eric-Gathering around the dragon outside, everyone was trying to wrap their heads around there being a dragon here. I, on the other hand, was still reeling about everything that has happened recently. The dragon was one thing, but to find out that your mate has been your mate for centuries, was a lot to process.It wasn’t that I didn’t believe her, it was just a lot to take in all at once. I figured that her being a part witch would be that she knew a few spells or something, not some powerful high priestess or whatever they were called. I had watched her handle the dragon effortlessly, not to mention how she took on her old pack.It had been mind-blowing, to say the least. Looking over at her, as she talked with her dragon in the backyard of the packhouse, I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to think. I mean, she had a pet dragon for crying out loud.“Are you okay?” Brook’s gentle voice filled my head as she stepped next to me.Taking my gaze off Leilani and her dragon, I looked over

Leilani-After I finished talking, I directed my attention to Cordelia, wanting her to answer the question I had asked before telling everyone what had happened. From the first moment I met her, I already didn’t trust her. Now I was almost sure something was going on with her.I asked the question again, yet she still didn’t answer. If we were going to find a way to break this curse, I wasn’t sure it was a good idea that Cordelia was here. Actually, I wasn’t sure it was a good idea that any of the witches were here.“I want them all gone.” I told Eric, speaking directly into his mind through our link.“Are you sure that is a good idea? We could probably use their help.” Eric responded.“I’m not sure what kind of help they could give us. Plus, I don’t trust them one bit. When I woke up, you were still stuck there. I had asked them to get you out of there, but everyone claimed they didn’t know how. I still don’t know how I did it, but thankfully I knew the words needed to get you to wak
Contract Beta Chapter 50
Leilani- Tate and Eric showed up as we were all laughing about my cooking abilities or lack thereof. Instead of gathering in the living room, we sat around the table in the dining room, so Brook could continue to cook. I wanted to hear more about my past, but now everyone was here, it was time to get down talking about what was really going on. Tate told Brook that their daughter, who I assumed was Bailey, was asleep. At first, I thought they just left their daughter alone, but then he mentioned a babysitter, but I didn’t catch her name. I was willing to let them continue to talk about their daughter since it was nice seeing how at ease, they were with each other. Catching a glimpse at Eric, who was sitting next to me at the table, I found he was looking at me with a strange look on his face. It made me feel slightly uncomfortable, but I let it go when Tate turned his attention to me. “So let me get this right, both of your parents were werewolves, but because of a curse placed on
