The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 298

Neah

Damien knocks on the door and gives me a tight smile. I knew he was only following me because he was concerned, but it did make me feel a little uneasy.

Eric’s mother, Athena opens the door with Logan in her arms. “Neah, perfect, come with me.” She grabs my wrist and pulls me through to where Eric’s father, Sebastian, is encouraging Evrin to walk.

I watch my son take a few steps before dropping onto his bum. Sebastian cheers and both Evrin and Logan clap in excitement. I can only imagine what Eric’s parents were like when he went through his firsts.

A smile stretches across my face and everything that I was worried about falls away. Logan had mastered walking a couple of days ago and now Evrin could join him. Though they were still both early walkers. Abraxas had said it's their Lycan gene.

Sebastian and Athena didn’t care that the boys were Lycans either. Insisting that the boys were just like any other baby. And somewhere along the line, they had become the unofficial grandparents to my sons.

I didn’t mind, neither Dane or myself had parents.

Logan and Evrin loved seeing them as much as Sebastian and Athena did. And they are more than happy to take the boys without a single question.

I swoop Evrin up into a hug, breathing in his delicious cinnamon scent. He buries himself against me as Damien asks me if I feel better.

I had briefly forgotten he was here with me. “Yes.”

Athena takes my hand and smiles. “Is it bad again?”

“Nothing that my boys can’t fix.” I give her the same answer every time she asks. I knew she was only asking out of kindness. I also knew that if she thought my boys weren’t safe with me, she would call Dane and she hadn’t done that yet. Hopefully she will never have to do that.

“Any news on the Lycans?” Sebastian asks Damien.

“Last I checked, they were still in the training hall with Dane and the others.” He replies

“The Hunter hasn’t shot any then?”

“No. I think if he had, you would be the first to hear it.” Eric’s parents lived closest to the training ground.

“None look dead.” Athena is looking out the window. “However, they are on the move.”

Sebastian joins her. “Looks like those cabins are going to be put to use after all.”
