Novel & Cerita Bound By The Contract

My brows furrowed in confusion as I reached for the document again because of the words below our signatures that caught my attention. I leaned against the wall, reading the clause beneath the signatures. “By signing this contract, Party B(Renee) agrees to be bound to Party A( The Alpha Devils) according to the terms and conditions of the contract until death severs the pact. Party B’s right to freedom is now transferred to the signatories” The air stopped and for a second, it felt as if I had suddenly been plunged into this nightmare. Or, was I going blind again? My mind drifted back to the day they made me sign the contract. From what was read out to me, the contract would be invalid after

“You’re the one who kept me here.” Luca’s gaze darkened. “And I’m starting to regret it.” She lifted her chin. “Then let me go.” He stepped closer, and for the first time, she saw something unreadable flicker in his expression. “No.” Raven’s stomach twisted. “Why not?” Luca held her gaze. “Because you’re mine now.”

she gave off a dry chuckle. "I'll keep you updated Tammy" Mr Claude said as he stood up to leave. Before proceeding to leave, Mr Claude drew closer to Tammy, reached out to take her hands with a warm smile. Tammy, with a look of empathy allowed her hands to be held and their eyes locked, he said to her, " Thank you Tammy, for allowing this union to happen. You, my dear have done us both a huge sacrifice. Your father must be really proud of you". After being said, he left.

He just held me. "Sleep, Jade," he whispered into the top of my head. As I curled into him, listening to the steady thrum of his heart, the terrifying truth settled in my bones. We had crossed the line. The contract was a ghost, and the man holding me was the only reality left. There was no going back. There was only this.

Then she looked at the protection clause in the contract. Any threats to Ms. Grant or her immediate family will be neutralized permanently. Nina picked up her phone with shaking hands. The number Victor had left rang twice. "Ms. Grant." His voice was cold despite it being 4 AM. Like he'd been expecting her call. "Have you made a decision?" "I have questions." "Ask them." "The protection..." she hesitated. "How does it work? What does 'neutralized' actually mean?" "It means anyone who threatens you or your family will be dealt with swiftly and permanently." He said firmly. "You don't need to know the details. You just need to know it will stop.".

“Maybe Aaron needs to find an alternative. We don’t have much time. His father wants the inheritance to be settled before his 75th birthday. That’s… about eight months from now.” “There’s still time,” Bella replied softly. Lucie chuckled. “Time is only for those who are useful. For machines that function.” Bella turned her head, her eyes red. “Why do you always call me a machine?” “Because you signed a contract to be used. Not to be loved,” Lucie replied without hesitation. Silence hung between them. Then Lucienne stood up, straightening her coat. “Oh, and one more thing,” she said before leaving. “Do you think you’re the only one bound by a contract? Aaron is too. And my contract with him i

Ethan replied, popping a spring roll into his mouth. "You did that?" "No," he grinned. "But it sounds more dangerous than fake dating a woman who has strong opinions about fonts and eats ice cream straight from the carton." Layla pointed her spoon at him. "Watch it. That woman also controls your online image now." Ethan held up both hands in surrender, still smiling. "Fair. But can we talk about how you actually made us a contract?" "Fake Relationship Contract," Layla corrected, reaching into a folder and sliding out the paper like it was an ancient scroll. "We need boundaries. Rules. Expectations. This isn’t just make-believe—it’s a strategy."

“Where are her files?” I blinked, panicked. “What? No, no… you already gave me a job, I can’t take more—” “So here’s how this works,” she cut in, locking eyes with me. “You accept my help and keep the job. Or you refuse my help and lose it. Simple.” she said with a smile that wasn't so sweet. My lips trembled. I couldn’t even form words. Finally, I whispered, “Th… thank you so much, Mrs. Loretta.”

Julian looked at her and gave a small nod. “Thank you,” he said, but there was something off about his tone. Even though this was everything he had worked for, everything he had wanted, he didn’t feel as satisfied as he expected. A strange feeling settled in his chest, something he couldn’t quite understand. Sophia noticed the change in his expression. He looked deep in thought, almost distant. She hesitated for a moment before speaking, choosing her words carefully. “Our contract will soon end,” she said softly, her voice steady, but there was something else in it—something almost uncertain. “Just two months left.”

I needed to see it for myself before I jumped to conclusions, not that it mattered much now. It didn’t take me long to find the contract. It was sealed in a large yellow envelope. I unwrapped the string and slid the papers out, scattering them across the desk. My breath hitched painfully when I saw it. There it was. Written clearly on the fourth page of the contract, slipped in amongst the other clauses. “Upon being marked by Alpha Dominic, I understand that my symptoms will improve only for each day we stand together. Any breach of contract will result in immediate regression of symptoms. I understand that only Alpha Dominic may decide when the contract will officially terminate.”
