Semua Bab A Contract With An Alpha: Bab 91 - Bab 100

SELENE“Are you threatening me?” Evelyn asked, her gaze locked on mine.I smirked. “It sounds like that, right?”Then I snapped my fingers lightly in front of her face. “Then maybe it’ll happen in reality. Just be good, okay?” I said, tapping her shoulder with two fingers.Her body flinched.And then, like a puppet whose strings had just been cut, Evelyn collapsed.I didn’t move. Didn’t blink. She hit the floor with a dull thud, her limbs limp, head rolling sideways as her eyes fluttered shut.A second of silence.Then chaos.“Beta Evelyn!”Two figures sprinted down the hallway. Her maids, Vivian and Clara, skirts lifted, eyes wide with panic.They dropped beside her, voices choked with terror. “Wake up! Please, Beta Evelyn!”“She’s not breathing right,” Clara gasped.Then both women turned their wide, accusing eyes on me.“What did you do to her, Luna?” Vivian shouted, voice cracking.I didn’t answer. Because I didn’t know what to say. My mind was spinning. I looked down at Evelyn, h

SELENE“Selene is in charge of everything. Not her, she doesn’t have the right to arrange gatherings like that.” Zarek’s voice cut through the tension like a blade.Luca hesitated, his eyes flickered to me immediately. “You know I can’t stop her, Alpha,” he said, voice low but steady.Zarek didn’t move, he didn’t speak for a moment. The air around him shifted, calm, but laced with quiet warning. “Selene,” he said, turning to me now. “You should do something.”I tilted my head slightly, a smirk tugging at my lips. “There’s nothing I can do, Zarek. You and I both know how Evelyn is.”His jaw clenched as he let out a slow breath, like he was holding himself back from snapping. Then, without another word, he reached down and laced his fingers through mine, pulling me gently but firmly toward the door.“Where are we going?” I asked.“To put an end to this circus.”He didn’t let go of my hand as we walked. The warmth of his palm grounded me, even as my nerves buzzed under my skin. When we s

SELENEMira stepped forward again, that same false softness in her eyes, but there was steel beneath it.“Alpha,” she said, voice velvet. “I didn’t get to finish what I wanted to say. About Lucien.”Zarek’s jaw twitched. “Speak.”Mira’s hand brushed against his. Deliberate. Calculated. “We can only speak in private… or your office. This isn’t a matter for the training field.” She tilted her head slightly, her voice quiet but strong. “I’m only trying to help you, Zarek. You need Lucien’s information, right? And now I’m offering to give that, even though he is… was my Alpha.”Zarek didn’t answer right away.Her next words were whispered like a confession. “I don’t want him anymore. I’m willing to see him fall.”The silence that followed was long enough for tension to rise like smoke.Then Zarek gave a clipped nod. “Fine. Let’s head into my office.”He turned toward Luca. “Keep everyone busy. I’ll be back soon.”Luca gave a short nod and shot a quick glance at me—more protective than que

Mira stormed out of the mansion, her heels striking the stone like gunshots. Her eyes burned with fury, shoulders tight, lips twisted in humiliation. The stares that followed her weren’t kind. Whispers were already blooming like wildfire behind her back.She shoved the heavy doors open and nearly crashed into Evelyn.“What happened?” Evelyn asked, startled.“You brought me here to be trampled on and humiliated,” Mira snapped, voice sharp as glass.“That wasn’t the plan,” Evelyn said quickly, eyes darting to the open doors behind her.“You should’ve known what would happen,” Mira hissed, brushing past her. “You think I’ll just let this slide? I’ll make Selene and Leila pay for this. Watch me.”Before Evelyn could respond, Mira slid into her car and slammed the door. A moment later, tires screeched across the gravel as she sped off into the night.Evelyn let out a shaky breath, her face tense. Behind her, Clara and Vivian stood with folded arms, eyes sharp.“What are you going to do now

SELENEI smirked. “She’s trying to avoid this conversation.”Leila paused in her pacing and turned sharply to face me. “No,” she said, lifting her hand like a warning. “Uncle Maximus is our family, Selene. So saying we shouldn’t trust him is… honestly, it’s just unexpected and so wrong.”I didn’t respond right away. I watched her closely. The way her jaw tightened. The way her hands hovered, restless, as if unsure whether to fold or fling something. She looked frustrated, not because she thought I was wrong, but because she couldn’t believe I’d even say it.“Unexpected,” I repeated quietly, letting the word sink between us.Leila crossed her arms, her eyes narrowed like she was trying to figure out if I was joking. “Yes. It’s unexpected. And honestly? It sounds like paranoia.”I didn’t flinch. “It’s not paranoia if it’s already happening.”She dropped her arms and threw them back up again. “Happening?” Her voice climbed. “Selene, what are you talking about? Uncle Maximus has done noth
