The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 331

Neah

Eric hadn’t said anything for a while. He had sat completely still the entire time, holding my hand as we waited for some news from Klaus.

It had felt like hours, maybe it had been. I wondered if Dane had felt this way every time I had ended up in here. Wondering if he was never going to hear my voice again.

And somewhere along the line, I had become concerned about Mallory's survival.

I watch the room like a hawk, waiting for the slightest change. Klaus must be nearly done, though I still wish that Raven was here to help. She is good at what she does.

The door finally opens and Klaus steps out in a gown that is soaked in blood. I pull Eric off the floor and to his feet as we wait in silence while Klaus moves towards us. “She is alive. Just.” He lets out his own sigh of relief

‘Thank goodness for that.’ Nyx whispers.

“Thank you Klaus.”

“It wasn’t easy, but she is a fighter. She didn’t want to go.”

Eric’s hand tightens around mine. “Her heart stopped.”

“And we got her back. She is very weak though and she has lost a lot of blood. I will have to see if any of the Lycans are a match to help her.”

“Me.” I mutter

“No, Too risky.” Klaus mutters

“Can I go see her?” Eric mumbles

“Of course. Just give the nurses a couple minutes to clean up in there. She is out cold and will be for some time.”

“I will tell Damien.” I will do it in person rather than through a link. “I will ask him to come over and get checked.”

I wait until Eric is given the all clear to go and sit with his mate. I decide to head over to the house. I had a feeling Damien had gone to question Raven about why she wasn’t helping. I wanted to know why too.

Something feels off as I enter the packhouse. It almost reminded me of the day the boys were killed in Dane’s office. It just had an eerie feeling to everything.
