The Alpha’s Contract

Chapter 0580

"Amelia?"NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

She doesn't acknowledge us.

*Amelia Kitson?"

The rocking stops and she temporarily looks up at us.

*Amelia, we are here to help you." I tell her.

She shakes her head and pushes herself further back against the wall. Like she is trying to make herself disappear.

'Didn't you tell me that everyone got their abilities back after Cooper was killed?' Xavi asks

'Yes.' I stare in through the metal bars at the frail woman

'So if Cooper did this, the moment he died, she should have had her Lycan back?'

'Not necessarily. We don't know what else has been done to her.' I frown. They could have done anything to her.

Her skin was thin and looked as though it had been pulled tight over her thin frame. The raggy clothes she is wearing are barely staying together. Her hair is matted and her eyes look excessively big for her face, yet at the same time, they are sunken.

Amelia covers her ears. "No, no, no." She taps her chest, "Amy,"

'Maybe Amelia is a trigger to her.' Xavi suggests

I look in through the door and study her. Crazy. That had been the word Indy had used to describe her. She had gone crazy. I hadn't believed her, though not entirely. Being locked up for years in this tiny hole would probably do that to a person. Even Dane would have killed them rather than letting them suffer for this long.

On the floor of her cell are rat carcasses, a pan with a dribble of water. A bucket lingers in the corner.

"Amy. We know what Thalia is." I whisper. I point to Xavi, "She cursed him to never be able to shift." I gesture to Orion, "She cut out his tongue. I know she is helping your father. Your father wants to kill your niece. We want to help you!"

"No father." She mutters as her hair falls over her face. She rocks side to side. "No father."

'What does she mean?' Xavi asks

*Serkan. Your father....

*NO FATHER!"

'I don't understand," Xavi mutters, "You said he is."

'Neah is her niece. Serkan is Neah's grandfather. I know. I did her family tree.' I study her. Why was she saying he is not her father?

"I need you to keep watch." I had to link Dane. Maybe there was something that I didn't know.

I wait for Xavi to position himself. Orion joins him as I search for the connection between me and my Alpha. Dane?'

'Klaus!' He sounds relieved. 'It's so good to hear from you.' His familiar voice rumbles through my head. 'Are you okay? Are you in trouble?"

I'm in White Cliffs with Brax.'

There's a pause. "How the fuck did you end up there?"

"It's a long story but I'm here now and we found Amelia Kitson.

'Neah's aunt?' He scoffs. 'Silas said she was wiped from history. She's dead.'

'I'm looking at her now. She is very much alive and is being held in a dungeon. Everything is not as it seems here. The people in White Cliffs are under some sort of spell. The dead lay in the streets with no smell and the living are unable to see them. No one is allowed to leave. Thalia has more control and Amelia...Well, she is not completely with it and she keeps saying her father is not her father.'

'Klaus, you need to get out of there!' I hear his concern

'Not until the Witch is dead and the curse is broken on my mate.'

There is another pause 'Your mate?

'Yes.'

He doesn't ask any questions about Xavi. 'There's not much I can do from here. I can't leave Neah, she has just had twins. Girls. He announces proudly

'She's had them?' She wasn't due for another couple of months.

'It's a long story, but she is safe. We need to focus on you. I'm not sure what I can do to help from here. We did run into Serkan a while ago. He mistook me for my twin. Brax and Damien went after him in a car chase but he disappeared and hasn't been seen since.'

'Can Neah link him?"

'That's the problem.' He murmurs. 'She can find no connection to him in any shape or form. It's almost as though he doesn't exist. But I have seen him with my own two eyes. I killed his chauffeur. If you are with Brax, I'm sure you are aware that Serkan is a Rogue."

'I am."

*NO FATHER!"Amelia screeches from her cell as she stares at me.

'Silas was made to believe that he and Thalia are mated.' Dane continues. 'We have finally got through to him, but we don't think it will last.

Yes I know. His real mate filled me in.' I reply

'His real mate? What's her name?'

'Indy. Maybe it will help him.' I don't know how much it would help, but it was worth a try. This Thalia had done a real number on people. What has Silas told you about Thalia?'
