The Alpha’s Contract Luna alexia By Lian

When I am done with the airplanes, I turn my attention to the books. While many are about airplanes, there are some written by
Charles Dic kens, Tolkien, and Bram Stoker, and other authors. Some of them are bound in leather or are rare editions. I run the
tip of my index finger across the spines of the books.
Only one caught my eye.
The Asterious Island by Jules Verne. First edition.
It is Alekos favorite story. Mine as well. We read it together many times.
pick it up and open it. I am no expert on old books, but how much is a first edition worth? Moving a finger up and down a page, I
leave a trail of blood behind it. A thousand dollars? I flip a few pages and circle some drawings. More? Should I rip some pages?
Will he even notice it! I love books, and I would have a heart attack To st books torn apart. While Alekos deserves it, the book did
nothing to me.
If Stefan would take me to Carlos for flushing his
is precious ring, Alekos would probably snap my
neck for destroying his book.
After the sacrilege of destroying a few more pages with my bloodied fingers, I put the book on the bed and look around the room.
While I could do more, it is a matter of time before I am found. And I still have to destroy something of Reyes’.
I returns to the door, and I am about to unlock it when I hear the voices of Alekos and Stefan in the hallway. I lean my ear against
the cold surface of the door and

“I will take Giselle to the basement, and after that, we will see how our Angel is doing,” says Allekos. “Wait for me in the living
room
Their Angel? Is this some kind of a joke?
My gaze travels to his bed.
Wait until they discover what I’ve done.
Giselle whimpers and tries to say something, but Reyes snarls at her, his voice low and thick with hatred, “Shut the f uck up! Be
grateful that Alekos is willing to give you one more chance to prove your loyalty to us. During the next gathering, Lords from
other cities will be at our Blood Lodge. Make sure to put that mouth to good use while they are here. Until tomorrow night, you
can perfect your skill with the men of the house.”
“She is not one of the porai girls.” Alekos intervenes.
What is a porai girl? I’ve never heard of that term before.
“The f uck she isn’t. I don’t care that your demon is a Leviathan and is stronger than our Belials, when it comes to things that
affect our bonded, we should make decisions together. Giselle needs to learn never to disrespect our woman, our Lady, ever

again.” Reyes sounds very angry.

Belials? Leviathan? What is Reyes to
Not that it comes as a surprise that Giselle lied about me. From my experience, some women do that when it comes to getting
into men’s pants. My shoulders slump. I would have gladly let her have Alekos if she really wanted him that badly. There was no
need to get in so much trouble.
When they see what I have done, would they take me to the Blood Lodge-probably similar to the Celestial Heaven, where the
Dukes gather every Sunday-and have the service the Lords together with Giselle?

name her the new Lady of the house? She did what she thought was best for her and everyone living in the house. I don’t think it
was only because of jealousy but because of Erat.
“Shut up,” all three men growl at Giselle at the same time. A whimper followed.
I feel sorry for Giselle. Even if she did spread lies about me, I don’t want her to get punished. If not for me asking for Alekos’
help, Giselle would be in trouble night now.
The sound of the elevator opening makes Giselle beg. “Please, I am telling the truth.”

“Get inside!” Alekos orders her.
“Let’s see if our Nena is awake,” Reves suggests to Stelan alter the elevator leaves.
“Didn’t Alekos say to wait for him in the living room?”
“Since when do we do whatever Alekos asks of us?”
“Fine,” Stefan gives in. “But if she is still asleep, we will go to the living room.”
My heart starts pounding in my chest. I am in so much sh it. If they almost drove me to the ester of insanity for only thinking I was
spying for Carlos, what would they do to me now?
I listen as they go to Stefan’s room, and with great care, I unlock the door, open it, and peek into the hallway, Reyes and Stefan
have their barks to me and make no sound as they walk. How can they be that quiet? The floor always squeaks under my feet.
I wait until they enter Stefan’s room to tiptoe down the hallway in the opposite direction, toward Reyes’ room
“Nena?” Reyes” voice reaches me. He sounds... scared? I must be inagining it.

“Reyes, come here! Stefan shouts, “There are blo ody footprints in the hallway.”
F uck! Not only did I cut my hands, but my feet as well. I barely register the pain so I forgot about the blood or the shards stuck in
my damaged flesh, but there is no time to get them out 1 hane to hide.
Someone whistles.
“I don’t even want to know what Alekos will do when he sees his room, Isn’t that the book Nikolas gave Alekos a day before he
was killed?” Reyes says loud enough for me to hear him.
Nikolas gave Alekos the book I destroyed? Sh it. I am in s hit up to my neck.

I furrowe my brows. I vaguely remember a guitar in Reyes’ closet. Well, if I am going to be killed on taken to the Blood Lodge, at
