The Alpha’s Contract Luna alexia By Lian

Chapter 182
– Kate –
“I’ll stay here for a couple of days. There is something that I need to look into. The signal here is bad. Some of the rogues had
run into the road and knocked down a cellular site, Sebastian updated Kate. “Uncle Gabriel and the other warriors will return to
the pack earlier.”
“Why won’t you return together?” Kate asked on the phone.
“Kate, I – the full details – now, but something is wrong with this rogue group that we have taken down,” Sebastian said. His
words were already choppy, but Kate could still grasp what he meant. “I need to look further into it. Don’t tell anyone – I don’t
want my investigation disrupted.”
Kate hesitated for a moment, and then she replied, “Okay. If you say so. Take care.” “Bye” The call ended there. Kate wasn’t
even able to say goodbye properly.
“The signal must be that bad, Kate muttered.
Knowing it would take a few days for Sebastian to return, Kate busied herself to meet the new doctor she
hired for the pack. Because she would rather trust someone from Taplean, she asked a witch doctor from her father’s nation to
help fill the position.
Her father’s
trusted healer, Morgan, arrived the other day, introducing a male doctor named Gonzalo. The same doctor is a werewolf and had
trained with Morgan.
At the hospital, Kate introduced Morgan and Gonzalo to the other medical staff and patients.
“This is our new head doctor, Gonzalo. He is one of the leading werewolf physicians from the Stone Blood Pack, my father’s
former pack, Kate said to everyone who crowded around them. “Gonzalo has years of experience being a doctor and is adept at
using Taplean’s healing potion.”
Some of the nurses were excited because Gonzalo was quite a catch. He was tall and with dark hair and green eyes. Since he
belonged to the Stone Blood Pack, training was stern, and Gonzalo took part in the warriors’ training, too. Thus, he was very
lean.

“Then, this is Morgan. She is a half-witch and is the best healer in Taplean. She is like a second mother to me, Kate introduced
with a smile. “Morgan will be staying here for a few days to help everyone adjust since -”
She stopped herself from mentioning Cas sandra’s name because she knew the pack was still hurting from her being gone.
Chapter 182
Forcing a smile, Kate said, “Anyway, let’s welcome Morgan and Gonzalo.”
The next day, Kate implemented a community check-up in the less fortunate neighborhoods of the pack. It was also an excellent
way to introduce Morgan and Gonzalo, so Kate ensured they met the people who loved Sebastian.
Kate assisted and did the introductions throughout. Adriana, her maid, helped. While children and mothers lined up for the free
check-up, Kate received a picture message from an anonymous number.
It was an image of Sebastian’s back looking into a distant elevated rock formation, and Monica was leaning on his shoulders.
Seeing this, Kate could not help but tighten her hold on the phone.
Just what is this sender trying to imply? She asked. Her hands trembled as she excused herself to a private area of the
community and called the unknown number, but unfortunately, whoever this was ended the call.
The strange thing was how this person got her number! Because the unknown number refused to answer her call, she sent a
text message. She wrote: [Who are you? What does this picture mean?]
The unknown individual replied: [Just a concerned person. Your husband is cheating on you.]
Kate gasped as she covered her mouth. She refused to believe it and thus called Sebastian’s phone. Sadly, he was out of reach.
There was no other picture, though, and recalling how Monica often cried on anyone’s shoulder lately, Kate concluded this was
nothing. At least, her heart did not want to accept it.
Suddenly, memories of Xander came flooding back in her head. She muttered, “No, Sebastian would not do this to me. He swore
he would never betray me. He is at least scared of my father.”
In the afternoon, Gabriel and a few warriors arrived. Kate welcomed them in the packhouse, and the maids served snacks and
refreshments.

Kate had also brought Gonzalo and Morgan, introducing them to the warriors who had arrived. Soon, the warriors excused
themselves to leave for their homes, leaving only Gabriel.
In the living room, Gabriel welcomed Morgan and Gonzalo with a smile. He said, “It’s nice to meet both of you. We sure need a
helping hand around here.”
Gabriel smiled at Kate, saying, “Thank you for the hard work, Luna Kate. We are
Chapter 182
fortunate to have you.”
“I’m sorry, I must excuse myself. I better head up to rest,” Gabriel said.
Just as Gabriel was walking to the foot of the staircase, Kate remembered someone was missing. She asked, “Where is Monica,
Uncle Gabriel?”
“Sebastian requested that she stay behind with him. I’m unsure why he wanted to remain there, but he is the alpha. Sebastian
knows what he is doing. Maybe he wants Monica’s help to dig for more information about the rogue group,” Gabriel replied with a
smile. He waved at Kate and said, “I’ll see you tomorrow, Kate. I think I will rest until the evening.”
He smiled to Morgan and Gonzalo’s way, saying, “It’s nice to meet you again. Hope we can have more time to talk tomorrow.”
“Oh- okay,” Kate stuttered in her reply. She faked a smile, but deep inside, her heart was aching. The fact that Monica and
Sebastian were together made her uncomfortable.
While Kate was still taken aback, Morgan and Gonzalo waved at Gabriel. Morgan said to Kate, “He seems a very nice man.”
Kate smiled at Morgan. The half-witch was nearly two hundred years old, but she still looked young with green hair and emerald
eyes. Kate said in response, “Yes, Uncle Gabriel is nice. He is like a second father to Sebastian.”
Because Kate was uneasy that night, she sent Morgan and Gonzalo to the hotel near the hospital. Overnight, she tried to call
Sebastian as much as she could, but there was no luck. Sebastian was out of reach.
Before closing her eyes that night, she wondered, “Could there be no signal? Or could Sebastian be avoiding me?”
Once more, her mind was filled with recollections of Xander avoiding her calls. The worst part was how she wouldn’t know
anything if Sebastian had betrayed her, for they had not marked each other.

“Luna? Are you there?” Kate awoke to the sound of Adriana knocking on her door.
Kate got up and opened the door lazily. Adriana was heaving. She bitterly said, “Monica is back.”
Adriana clenched her jaws and reported, “She is talking to one of the maids, Milna, and she said that she and Alpha Sebastian
are getting back together. She claims that they are
true mates.
Chapter 182
“I- I don’t know what to believe, but I hate her!” Adriana claimed.
Kate felt a knife had stabbed her chest. She asked, “Is is Sebastian home? How come I don’t feel his presence nor smell him?”
“He isn’t home, Luna. That’s also why I doubt her words. How did she return alone while she claims that Alpha Sebastian is still
back at Vikewood?” Adriana said. “Then, she told Milna not to tell anyone about it, but of course, I was listening from outside the
kitchen. I think Monica even felt my presence.”
Kate closed her eyes. Then, she remembered her first conversation with Sebastian. Before signing an agreement with
Sebastian, he swore he would not mistreat her. He said, “I know exactly who you are. I am not stu pid to anger your father when I
have worked hard to help him over the years!”
But what if fear and respect for her father were not enough? If feelings were involved, could Sebastian truly betray her?
