The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 358
Neah
I push myself upright too quickly and feel the blood rush to my head.
‘Nyx, are you good?’
She groans back at me and I leave her alone. As long as I could still hear her, she was still with me.
“Neah, stay still.” Dane tells me
“No…it’s fine. I’m almost healed.”
He reluctantly holds out a hand to help me as I get on my feet. I think he knew that I was going to get up regardless and there was no point trying to stop me.
Dane continues to hold on to me as we make our way across the road towards the three dead Wolves, like I was somehow going to fall face first into the ground any second.
The Wolves were interesting, even after death, neither one of them had any scent. How had they masked it from us? Especially Brax, he had always been able to single out the different species. However they had done it, it must have been recently.
“We need to get them out of the road.” Dane tells Eric. “If someone comes along here, it will draw too much attention. We don’t need any more unwelcome visitors at our gates.”
He hadn’t said anything about them being part of Black Shadow, but he is livid.
“Wait.” I mutter as Eric grabs the nearest man. “Have you searched them? They might have some information about why they did this or who they did this for.”
Brax stares at me "You're expecting me to find a phone number?"
"I don't know, maybe!" I retort
“The problem isn’t them, Neah." His eyes shift to Dane. "The problem is how many of your Wolves have turned against you.”
“They wouldn’t.” I snap. “They didn’t turn against Dane. It was me and you that they tried to kill.”
Eric checks them anyway, but ultimately finds nothing. Brax and Eric move the bodies from the road and into the trees as Dane guides me back in the direction of Black Shadow. His anger is rolling off of him, though he keeps his eyes forward.
“Dane?”
“I didn’t want you to come out here. You could have…..”
“The problem is, a lot of things are changing. There are now more Lycans in the pack than there are Wolves.”
“You think the Wolves feel threatened?”
“It’s a possibility. It might only be a few that have fallen victim to his lies.”
“But Cooper is a Lycan. If they have a problem with Lycans, why would they work for him?”
He stops me and cups my face. His crimson eyes searching my own. “Do you trust me?”
“Yes. You know I do.” I mutter, confused. “Why?”
“When we get to the road that leads up to the gates, I’m going to carry you in. I need you to pretend you are out of it.” He looks me up and down.
I frown, “You’re testing them?”
“You know I have my own ways of weeding out the unloyal ones. All I ask is that you don’t make a sound and you stay in the house, unseen for a few days.”

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....
