บททั้งหมดของ A Contract With An Alpha: บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

SELENEZarek was in his office when Elder Ronan, Evelyn’s father rushed in without knocking. He didn’t even send a message he was coming.“Elder Ronan.” Zarek said firmly.“You locked my daughter up?” Elder Ronan said, he didn’t sit down.Zarek nodded nonchalantly.“You should have informed me first,” Elder Ronan spat, His voice echoed through the room, sharp and full of authority.“Now you’re showing your true colors.”Zarek stood behind his desk, his expression was calm, but the tension in the room said otherwise. Leila leaned against the bookshelf beside me, her arms crossed, she didn’t say anything.I stayed silent too, I dare not speak at that moment.“Ronan,” Zarek said firmly, “your daughter poisoned a maid. A maid, Ronan. Before that, she hit another maid to death, and I did nothing. I didn’t say anything. But this?” He stepped forward, his eyes narrowing. “Should I just stand by and watch her kill more people because I owe her something?”Elder Ronan slammed the table in anger

SELENEAfter the whole incident, Evelyn went to the balcony and sat down there alone, Zarek walked to her, he didn’t sit, he just stood and watched the view with her.“Why are you here?” Evelyn asked, her voice low.Zarek turned his gaze to her. “I am sorry I doubted you.” Evelyn smiled firmly. “It happens.” She said then she stood up, she picked up the cup of wine from the table then she walked away.Zarek watched her as she walked out but he didn’t stop her.After a few minutes, I walked into Zarek’s office like I was a ghost, I didn’t knock.“I saw you two.” I said firmly, my voice barely above a whisper.Zarek closed the document he was glancing at. “I was only apologizing for doing that to her.”“I know, it’s your job to comfort her because she has been through a lot.” I said firmly, as I gently sat on the couch in front of him.Zarek smiled softly. “Don’t pity Evelyn. Her friends were right about her. She isn’t innocent.” “But today she didn’t do it and she was framed.He nodd

SELENE“I’ll be right back,Leila,” I whispered to her, leaning in close so she could hear me very well.Leila nodded, not looking up, because she was having a conversation with a few ranked wolves from the northern packs. “Just don’t get lost, I don’t want Zarek to lock me up.”I gave her a faint smile, adjusting the edge of my gown as I walked through the crowd. The ballroom shimmered with gold and candlelight, packed wall to wall with every Alpha, Beta, and ranked wolf in the kingdom. It was the Lycan King’s celebration party, after all, and nothing less than an empire sized spectacle would do.I barely made it halfway to the restrooms when I turned to the corner and then I mistakenly hit someone, it was very fast. The maid was holding a silver tray.“Oh my God—” I blinked, the arm of my dress was splashed with red wine. “I’m so sorry.”The girl was a maid. Young, probably not older than nineteen, with wide brown eyes and a pale, startled face. “No—I’m sorry, my lady, please forgive

SELENEAfter I was moved to the room, the Lycan king had left and Zarek didn’t come back. After a few minutes I heard a knock on the door and then I turned my gaze to the door. It was Leila.“Leila, nice to see you.” I said with a wide smile.Leila tilted her head and then she smiled. “This is favoritism just so you know, the Lycan king really loves you.” “I know that’s right.” I said smiling. “So is there any lead?” I asked Leila, folding my arms to my chest as I leaned back on the couch.“Not yet, but I’m sure Zarek will find out who did it.” Leila crossed her arms, glancing toward the window. “He’s been furious since that incident happened. He just kept pacing around his room like a damn wolf in a cage.”I swallowed hard. “He’s upset?”“Selene…” She sighed. “He almost killed one of the guards who didn’t listen to him.”“He is really angry, and why would he be mad? He was the one who offended me right? If he had spoken up for me, this wouldn’t have happened.” I said firmly.Leila

Evelyn paced her room in anger, her fingers curling into fists at her sides. Her heels were sounding against the marble floor.“She managed to get out again,” Evelyn muttered, her voice low and firm, barely above a whisper but filled with anger.Kimora sat gently near the window, her arms crossed, watching Evelyn. “The witch told you not to do her any harm,” she said calmly, her tone filled with quiet warning. “She said it would backfire on you if you tried anything reckless. Just… let her be.”Evelyn stopped walking, her eyes gleaming with anger. “No. I won’t.” Her lips curled into a snarl. “I’ll try one last thing. If this doesn’t work, I swear I’ll end her myself, through her food. It’ll look natural. And it will be untraceable. Even Zarek wouldn’t notice, I am going to end her life though the maids, one of them should be willing to betray her for money.”Kimora didn’t reply. She just sat there, frozen, staring at the woman she had once admired. The woman she had vowed she would be
