The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 335
“Can she come back?”
“When a soul has completely left, no.”
I raise the gun, my finger on the trigger. I couldn’t see anything but her. The voices around me were echoes.
Images of how we met replay in my head. How I saw her from the gates. How I followed her into the forest and watched her talk to herself, though that turned out to be her Wolf. The first time I kissed her. How her skin was so soft under my fingers. The way she would snore yet insist she didn’t. She had opened herself to me and now, I could feel her slipping.
My lungs grow tight until I can barely breathe. She is supposed to be my mate for life, but she had lost herself in her grief. She had been forced out. She had given up on us.
I drop the gun and back out of the room. She was dead. She was gone. It wasn't her.
Neah shouts something about not letting Raven out of their sight. She appears in the hallway seconds later. “You shot her.”
“It’s not her.” I look up into my Alpha’s blue eyes. Somehow, through it all, she had kept a level of calmness. She had seen something that we hadn’t. “What do you think we should do?”
“Abraxas said she was gone. Do you feel it?”
I nod. I had never had a need to curl up in a ball and hide from the word. I always faced it head on. But losing a mate was like nothing I had ever felt. It is painful. It is full of sorrow. And everything no longer feels straight forward.
“She gave up.” I slam my fist against the wall. “She fucking gave up after everything!”
Neah doesn’t say anything. She lets me hit the wall over and over without so much as a flinch.
When I stop, my busted up knuckles are already healing which just irritates me more. I turn to face Neah. “Why haven’t you said anything?”
“I’m not feeling what you are feeling.”

Just loving how you keep trying to block me swnovels...
Hi Taylor, I found your book by accident. I really enjoy your writing, but I must admit that there’s a little more sex than I am use to, most likely because of my age 😁. I was wondering if you have released them in ebook ? I have read some of your notes to your readers and I know that you have written other books but I can’t find them in ebook format. I live in Sweden and have enjoyed reading this story as the dark nights get longer and longer. I am looking forward to re-joining Dane and Neah’s story. Thank you for sharing your marvelous talent.

Why are you ignoring the DMCA the author sent?...
I'm so glad it's being posted here, I don't have the income to pay 250 in order to unlock all the chapters. However, whenever the physical book comes out, I'll be the first to buy them. I love the story, love the way it is written (typos and all) I just cannot pay all of that money, the app is ridiculously predatory....
book 2: Bonds that bind us...
I don’t see the name of the new book. Could you please resend it?...
I think it very cool that you have trigger warnings!...
Stolen the latest chapter even though it refers to you. What a surprise!!!...
