All Chapters of Contractually Yours, Alpha: Chapter 501 - Chapter 510

My mind flashed back to the woman I had met in the woods all those years ago. If I could turn back time, I would have asked her exactly how her mate had broken her heart. Had he cheated on her? Had he beaten her? Or had he said the very same words Alexander Blackwoods had just said to me?“How dare you.” I growled at him. He was my first, the only man I had ever been with. “How dare you ask such a question, Alexander?” My voice sounded so cold; I couldn’t even recognize it.Alexander sat beside me as I shook with fury. “The healer had warned me when I began taking the doses of wolf’s bane. I didn’t listen; I was so obsessed with the idea of growing some kind of immunity to it. She was right in the end; it rendered me infertile—at least until I stopped my daily doses. And even then, we aren’t sure things will return to normal. With the amount of wolfsbane in my system, I am incapable of impregnating you, Kaida.”“I’ve only been with you.”“No. Just stop the act. I felt it… I felt it th

I didn’t know how to feel. While I had been venting about not being ready, a small part of me had already accepted the pregnancy—the challenges that came with it. For those few hours when I thought I was pregnant, I couldn’t deny a strange fascination with the idea of a life growing inside of me. Her news should have brought relief, but strangely, it didn’t.It was midnight. I didn’t know exactly how I had ended up at the door of our apartment. Letting out a sigh of resignation, I stepped inside. Maybe I did need to talk to Alexander.I found him seated in the exact same position I had left him, but this time, a bottle of liquor was in his hand. Even from here, I could smell the harsh smell of wolfsbane. My eyes widened, and I rushed to him."What are you doing? Are you trying to kill yourself?""Well, that would just mean one less person for anyone to worry about."“Are you crazy? You are the Alpha king!”He smirked; it was humorless. I had never seen him look so scary and at the sam

Kaida had been given medication to help her recover faster. I watched her sleep, my mind drifted back to the moment she told me she was pregnant. Very few things took me by surprise, but the news did. The first emotion I felt was… hope. For a split second, I wondered if the healers had been wrong—if the wolfsbane hadn’t rendered me infertile after all. But then came the internal conflict—there was a big possibility that the child could belong to her former beta, Aric.I should have told Kaida about my inability. I couldn't believe I had never stopped to consider how she would feel about not having children. I mean, there was a chance, but only if I stopped consuming wolfsbane and allowed my body to heal from years of damage.For years, I had taken daily doses of wolfsbane—a habit born from the day it nearly killed me. I had sworn then that I would never let that happen again. I was fully aware of the fact that I was risking my life every day by taking the doses, but I couldn’t stop.

"I heard sounds coming from this room. Who's in there?" I asked him.“Come.” He said, avoiding my question.“No. I want to know who is in there.”A flicker of annoyance crossed his face before he walked toward me. Maybe he knew his sudden disappearances and reappearances were already unsettling me—but I doubted he cared. Maybe he just didn’t feel like doing it this time.He took out a key from the pocket of his jeans and unlocked the door; his eyes remained on me. It took all my strength to tear my gaze away and look into the room. There, locked up in the room, were three girls— they were around my age, though the one in the middle seemed a few years older. They looked afraid, but no tears ran down their faces, even though they were chained up like animals. Maybe I had imagined the sounds after all."You kidnapped them," I said, totally mortified. I shouldn’t be surprised by his actions, and yet, I was. I was surprised because I didn’t want to believe that the Trian I knew was gone; d

I woke up feeling disoriented. His words kept replaying in my mind: “I am supposed to kill you; that was the plan, yet you still live.”I should have known that was the plan. Without me, the Encounter would never take place, and the Empresses would never fulfill their ‘life’s purpose’—to kill the Demon Overlord: him.Yet, somehow, I still hoped; I still believed that the man I knew was in there somewhere. I was wrong. I couldn’t waste any more time; each minute—each second—spent doing nothing counted. I couldn’t let this happen; I had to do something and fast.He was not in the living room or kitchen by the time I came down; I was pretty sure he wasn’t in the house, but he would be close by; running away now would be a stupid decision. I needed a weapon, and kitchen knives wouldn’t do.I went up the stairs to his weapons room and was surprised to find it open; the Nexus Amulet was still there. The only difference was that the windows were shut—perhaps to keep me from tossing the jewel
