All Chapters of The Alpha's Contract Mistress: Chapter 91 - Chapter 95

The outdoor swimming pool was shielded with a see-through glass slide. I worked the mechanism so the glass slide retracted. The smell of chlorine filled the air. The blue water glowed under the moonlight. I took off my clothes, before diving in. I broke through the surface, running my hands through my wt hair. I watched her take off her shorts. I should look away but I couldn’t stop staring. I’d always thought she was good looking, so much so that all those scars couldn’t dent it.‘Could you quit staring at my ass,’ she said through the mind link.I sank into the pool to give her some privacy, soon the water parted as she dove in, a cocky smirk on her face. We both resurfaced. ‘You’re right, this is fun.’ “Race you to the end,” I challenged before swimming to the other side of the pool. But I’d been partial, I was a good swimmer, and I’d learnt that from years of training. Katalier was an okay swimmer, and though she was aware of that, she’d never say no to a challenge.I slowed

ELOISE’S POV“Nice, isn’t it?” My father questioned, as I walked into his apartment.“It is,” I agreed.

Perhaps a change of environment is what I need to finally start healing and moving on.” He admitted.I took his hands, “We are in this together, never forget that.” But he gave no response to that and that’s all it took for me t

All this time, I’d been completely oblivious, but suddenly I could see it. The looks, filled with hatred, the way parents pulled their children away from me as I walked past, the murmurs that followed me—none of them bothered to hide the fact that I was the subject of their hushed discussions.The anger I’d earlier felt had faded, and I couldn’t help but go over the woman’s words. What had she wanted to say before Gideon cut her off? What exactly had I been blind to all this time?I should have noticed the pack’s sudden coldness the day of my arrival, I should have noticed the accusation in their eyes, but I didn’t. I was too caught up in my life and my problems, I didn’t care to look deep enough. Now though, I was looking and I didn’t like what I saw. The hallways out of the building seemed to stretch on and on, an unending walk of shame. Scrutinized by judging eyes, I felt myself grow smaller with each step I took—and there was the overwhelming urge to hide away behind Gideon. “Oh,
