The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 319

Raven

“You really couldn’t find anything?” I mutter in confusion. It had been twenty four hours since the fire.

Dane shakes his head at me. “We’ve looked but there doesn’t seem to be anything that caused the fire. Whoever did it, covered their tracks.”

“No scents?”

“The after smell of the fire is still strong, it wiped out any leftover scents.” Damien adds. “I expect whoever is responsible, set it and then legged it.”

“So there is still a chance it can be Blair?”

“We are not ruling it out.” My brother tells me and then he smiles. “It’s nice to see you involved in pack stuff again.”

I shrug my shoulders. “Jenson is dead, I have to be useful somewhere.”

“You know that is not what I’m saying! What I am saying is I’ve missed having you hover around the house, finding you in random places eating ice cream. Neah misses you too.” He smiles at me, though I don't return it.

I sigh. I had missed a lot of what had happened with Neah. Usually she would tell me everything, but we had barely spoken since I had been at my brother's bedside. I had missed watching the twins learn to walk too. “Well, I’m here now. When is the funeral?”

“Tonight. It’s a full moon and I think it’s the perfect night to say goodbye to him before we go on a packrun.”

I hadn’t been on a full moon run in months. “Are the Lycans taking part?”

“Some of us.” Damien confirms, “But there are many, like the Everwood crew that don’t do it.”

“Blair’s family?” I wanted to check that I knew who they were talking about. I still thought it was weird that they were here, but apparently Hunter Abraxas had verified them. “Is that wise?”

“Eric’s not going. He will be staying in the house with Mallory, Neah and the twins.”

“Oh, Mallory doesn’t want to go?”

Dane opens his mouth but Damien answers for him. “She’s decided not to. Her and Neah have been getting on really well and she wants to help Neah with the twins tonight.”

“Neah lets her near the twins?” I try to keep the surprise out of my tone.

“I never thought I would say this.” Dane smiles. “They get on well.”
