Semua Bab A Contract With An Alpha: Bab 101 - Bab 110

Leila walked out of the office and let the heavy door close behind her with a soft click. Her heels echoed down the hallway, matching the tempo of her heartbeat. She didn’t turn back. She didn’t hesitate. But every step she took felt heavier than the last.When she reached the garden, the sun was already dipping, staining the sky with amber streaks. And beside the garden, Evelyn was standing there.Feeding the fish. Like she had no care in the world. Like she didn’t just get named the silent threat in the room.Evelyn didn’t turn when Leila stepped closer. She just tossed another pinch of food into the water, watching the fish scatter and gather again in a frenzy.Leila folded her arms tightly. “Do you have anything to tell me?”Evelyn glanced over her shoulder, her smile lazy, mocking. “You’ll have to be more specific, darling.”Leila’s expression didn’t change. “Did you threaten the healer?”Evelyn chuckled, soft and bitter. “I’m offended. You make it sound like I was subtle about i

Orion let out a light chuckle that didn’t reach his eyes. “Can’t a man eat a double portion in peace?”Zarek raised a brow. “Two plates. Still hot. Still untouched. One of them has Leila’s favorite food.” He looked over slowly. “Did she come here?”Orion didn’t blink. “Leila? Your sister? I don’t really know. But you know if she came here, she’s free to.”Zarek took another step closer. “So you didn’t see her?”“I see a lot of people,” Orion replied evenly. “But not always the ones I want.”Zarek tilted his head. “I’m not in the mood for word games tonight.”“I’m not playing any.”Zarek’s eyes darkened a little, nose lifting slightly. He sniffed the air once—then again. The mood shifted. Something in his face twisted for half a second. Recognition.His voice dropped. “Her scent is here.”Orion didn’t flinch. “She might’ve stopped by earlier. I wasn’t around.”Zarek stared at him, saying nothing for a long second. The silence felt like it weighed a thousand pounds. Then he stepped towa

“You and Orion better stop playing with me,” Leila said firmly, voice low, dangerous.Evelyn smirked like she couldn’t care less. “Come on. I didn’t even know you were fucking your brother’s best friend. I only found out when I walked in and saw you two screwing in his damn room.”Leila’s eyes narrowed. “And you didn’t think to walk out?”“Why would I?” Evelyn folded her arms. “Free show. Plus, you were enjoying it. Moaning like you hadn’t touched a man in years.”Leila stepped forward. “Won’t Zarek ask you why you’re suddenly playing messenger girl between him and Orion? Why were you meeting up with him behind everyone’s back?”Evelyn shrugged. “Let him ask. At least now we’re both dirty. We’re both in shit. So as long as we both stay out of trouble, your secret’s safe with me…” She leaned in, smirking. “…and mine should be safe with you.”Leila’s jaw clenched.Evelyn’s voice dipped. “It’s not like you didn’t enjoy his dick.”Then she turned, heels clicking against the stone path, wa

SELENEZarek turned sharply, his brows furrowing in alarm as I clutched my stomach and doubled over slightly.“Ouch,” I gasped again, squeezing my eyes shut. “My pup… it hurts—Zarek, something’s wrong…”His hands were on me in seconds. “What do you mean something’s wrong? Where exactly? How bad is it?”I shook my head, keeping the act going. “It came out of nowhere—just this sharp pain, like something twisted inside—Zarek, please.”“Selene, sit down.” His voice was firm, but his hands trembled as he guided me to the couch. “Easy. Don’t move.”I collapsed into the cushions, gripping his forearm like I was barely hanging on. His scent wrapped around me, grounding me even as guilt twisted tight in my chest. But I couldn’t let him leave. Not tonight. Not with Leila unconscious just a few rooms away.Zarek crouched in front of me, eyes scanning my face, then my stomach. His hands hovered, unsure if he should touch.“Where’s the pain now?” he asked, voice tight. “Is it sharp? Dull? Does it

SELENE“SELENE!”We all flinched.The voice rang out from the hallway like a whip.“Alpha Zarek,” Clara said under her breath, stiffening.My heart skipped a beat, but my voice was calm. “All of you need to leave. Now.”Vivian looked at me sharply. “Through the door?”“No,” I shook my head, already moving. “The window. If Zarek sees me alone with Leila, he won’t question it. But if he finds Evelyn or her maids here, he’ll start digging. And none of us want that.”Evelyn folded her arms. “And why should I listen to you?”I turned to her with a slow smirk. “Because Zarek will blow up at me, sure. He always does. But we always settle. You? Your name alone pisses him off. You keep stacking crimes on that name, Evelyn, and one day—he’s going to wipe your bloodline off this pack like it never existed.”She flinched.Vivian grabbed her arm. “She’s right. We need to go.”I turned to the two maids, eyes narrowed. “And you two… I’ve been busy lately. Haven’t had the time to do proper checks. Bu
