All Chapters of The Enemy's Deal: It's More Than Just a Contract: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Valerie returned to her room and sat down on her bed. She dropped her bag on the bed and began to look around. She missed her room but she seems to miss Leonard's mansion more.Maybe that was because she could be herself there without anyone pointing fingers at her for being cursed.Yes, she was accused of seducing their Alpha but it was better than being considered a curse and being treated differently in a place that was supposed to be called home.Valerie took a deep breath. With the Pack problem out of the way and her father's recovery going well, she can finally put her mind at rest. It was also time to focus on how to help the people build their houses and go about their businesses before her one-month agreement with Leonard expires, so she can leave the Pack, and return to the Fire Pack to fulfil her promise.Valerie decided to call Luella over and ask her how the people are doing and what help they needed to get their house up and their businesses runnin

Valerie was still asleep when someone knocked on her door. She opened her eyes and sat up."Who is that?""It's Luella. Are you sleeping already? Did I wake you up?" Valerie stood up from the bed and went to open the door. "I am so sorry I woke you up," Luella mumbled.Valerie smiled. "You don't have to worry about that. Come in, please."Luella walked into the room and sat down on the couch. "Have you thought about it yet?" She asked. "I mean leaving for the Fire Pack, as soon as possible."Valerie sat down on the bed. "I haven't thought about it yet.""What are you waiting for? Are you scared of leaving? Or are you worried?"Valerie shook her head. She is not scared of leaving, nor is she worried. She doesn't understand why Luella is so determined to make her leave before her one-month agreement is up."Speak to me, Val? Why don't you want to leave yet?"Valerie took a deep breath. "I am trying to take my time. The Pack still needs me."Luel

"Miss Valerie?" The maid who just walked in, called out. The two maids were shocked. Did Valerie hear their conversation or did she just come in? Valerie realized they might not have noticed her when she walked in which was the reason they were bold enough to talk about her. "G-good morning, Miss Valerie," they stuttered. Valerie faked a smile. She wasn't going to let them know she heard them or they might inform whoever is trying to hurt her and the plan would change. "Hi," she waved, still faking a smile. "Can you get me a pack of cereal and a cup? I will get the milk and water myself." They nodded and quickly went to get them for her. "Add some cubes of sugar too," Valerie added. Although Valerie sounded calm, she was scared of getting hurt. She has also been wondering who is trying to hurt her; one of the maids had mentioned that she would die, although she didn't call her name, Valerie knew she was referring to her. S

"I plan to use studying for a course, as a reason to leave," Valerie answered. Alpha Jason furrowed his brows. "I mean I will tell him I got a scholarship to study a course in another Pack and would be gone for a year. I don't know how to go about it yet though."Alpha smiled. "I think I can help. But I need to ask you a few questions first." Valerie nodded and he continued. "Have you thought about your father wanting to visit you?"Valerie nodded. She thought about it."I will try to prevent him from visiting."Alpha Jason shook his head. "What you need is a place he can't visit even if he wants to."Valerie furrowed her brows. Aside from Fire Pack, does such a place exist?"I will think of a way to prevent him. Right now I need a place I can use."Alpha Jason stood up and went to one of the shelves in his office. He brought out some flyers and handed them over to Valerie."The Waterfall Pack is currently accepting students. And also the Voidspire Ac

Valerie decided to eat her breakfast, now that no one is paying attention to her. She brought out the food Madam Helen had prepared for her; she also added warm milk just like Valerie loves it.Valerie ate slowly. By the time she was done, the person to pick her up had come. He apologized for not coming to pick her up earlier."I did not know you were returning today."Valerie furrowed her brows. "Do I know you?""I am so sorry," he mumbled. "I should have introduced myself.""I am Martins. I am the Captain of the Alpha's ship.""You mean you work for Leonard, I mean the Alpha of the Fire Pack?"He nodded. "I do. I will take you to the ship now."Valerie raised her hand. "Wait."She hasn't gotten something right yet. How did he know her? No, not him. How did anyone here recognize her to have informed the Captain to come over? She decided to test him."I am so sorry. I think you made a mistake. I am not the one you are here to pick."T
