“Tell me where he is!” Roan snapped just as my nose is filled with Danes' woody scent.
“I’m right here! And I suggest you let go of my mate.” Danes' voice echoes through me. The relief I feel hearing that he is home is unlike anything I have ever felt.
I’m dropped as Roan turns to face my mate. Jenson stands tall next to Dane along with Jess. And then there was Mallory, the girl who had almost beaten me to death.
“You killed my brother!” Roan screeches
“No, I didn’t.” Dane shrugs his shoulders
“I felt his death. Don’t lie to me”
“And yet it wasn’t me. It was a Lycan.” Dane speaks calmly, though I feel his annoyance
“Don’t bullshit me!” Roan screeches, grabbing me and pulling me back against him. His hand coils around my throat and he squeezes as I stare at Dane.
The music stops and I feel all eyes on me.
“It wasn’t Dane.” Mallory mutters as she steps forward with her hands raised. “There are Lycans that have the taste for flesh, it was them.”
“Bullshit!” Roan yells as he squeezes my throat a little more. “They are all dead.”
“Do you really believe that? I believe that Dark Ridge is your brother's pack, right? There is a place before Dark Ridge that has been claimed. The town is owned by Rogue Lycans. Your brother passed through with one of our kind as his prisoner.” she gestures to Jess. “He was never going to make it out of our town alive.”
Her brown eyes find mine as he continues to squeeze my throat. My vision is darkening. Her face was not the last I wanted to see.
“So you killed him?” Roan growls.
“No.”
‘Nyx.’ I whisper as I find it impossible to breathe
‘What about the pups?’ She whispers back.
‘There will be no pups if I’m dead anyway. Just the claws.’
Pain rips through my entire body. I could feel the claws pierce my fingertips as Mallory kept talking to him.
Reaching behind, I plunge the claws into his stomach. His hands instantly let go of my throat as he yells in pain.
My feet hit the ground and as I’m about to run, I lose my balance, landing face first in the dirt.
‘GET UP!’ Nyx screams at me
I couldn’t move.
“YES!” She snaps again, avoiding eye contact. “You shouldn’t have shifted.”
“It was just my claws!” I grumble, but as I study her face, I knew something was off. “What’s wrong?”
She sighs, turning her back to me. “This is going to sound mad.”
“Madder than a man in the pack who is after my twins?”
“The woman with Dane…”
“Mallory?” I spit her name
She nods. “She carries someone else’s scent.”
“Okay.”
“My mates.”
“Salem?” I ask confused
She shakes her head and frowns. “My new mate.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West)
Execcelent! Loved it!...
What about 80? I can only go up to 79...
I am clearly coming late to this book …me definitely one of the more well written ones. I feel like Im reading a series though … like I just finished reading two books and now we are off onto another storyline. Getting used to “splutter” instead of “sputter” as a word, and still trying to work out the “Lycan” logic as Blairs explanation doesn’t really make sense given the initial explanation of how Lycans came to be … I do wish these were in physical form. I do love to flip back and forth on pages to reread previous chapters. So much arder on these apps....
I love this book. I wish there were more chapters. I read this all in a week. I know life outside of writing is more important. I will just sit and wait for more to be released. I will support you always Taylor. Thank you for sharing your talents....
Ooh and thanks to the website techs ☺️...
Whether it's pirated or not doesn't really concern me,, when are we getting the final chapters 🥹...
EclecticCelt sounds like your got massive issues because you can't understand something straightforward...
The last this book was updated was December 2024 not 3 years like someone else claimed. It can't be 3 years when the author started the story in Jan 2024. Now the story can be found on Inkitt...
I have a question. I understand this book is pirated with left out parts or adjusted. Is this version here ever going to be finished. I just want to know what happens....
I recently learned that this story is pirated. To read it legally, go to inkitt.com or the Inkitt app and search for Taylor West. FYI, the Facebook group is highly cliquish, so be warned....
