The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 368
“More than any of us.” Klaus confirms
Maybe if I had spent more time around Raven, I could have seen what was coming before it was too late. Or maybe, this was how it was always meant to be. The higher powers worked in fucked up ways. That was becoming more and more obvious.
“How long will she sleep for?” I ask
“Possibly a few hours. As you are probably aware, it will be different for her now.”
“Good, I have somewhere I need to be.”
“I think you should stay.” Klaus blocks my way
“You said she isn’t going to be awake for a while and I need to make some fucker pay for this!”
“Who?” He challenges.
“I don’t know yet. But I will find out soon enough."
“Let Damien and Dane get answers. I’m sure someone saw something.” Klaus tells me, his words full of optimism. He really wouldn't have survived as a Hunter.
“I can’t just sit by her bedside. That’s not how I operate.”
“And what do I say to her if she wakes up?”
“Tell her that I’m going to kill the person who did this to her.”
I push past him and fling open the hospital doors. Everything is dark and the pack is quieter than usual. There are still some Wolves and Lycans plodding around, but not much else was happening.
Jogging down to the gates, I wanted to see who was on guard duty, but I also wanted to go out and check where Damien had found her. Maybe there were some tracks that had been missed. Maybe I could see something they couldn’t.
Ryken is standing at the gates. His attention focussed on the area outside the pack while the Wolf faced inwards. It was better than what I usually saw. Normally Wolves would stand chatting to each other.
“Ryken?!” I call out, but he doesn’t move from his spot.
“Hunter!” He growls back. "Is the girl okay?"
“Yes, seen anything?”
“No.”
“You didn’t see Madison either, did you?”
“No? Because I would say by the level of avoidance that you are trying to master, you actually have a lot to say.”
“I didn’t see anything.” He grumbles
“Not a very good guard are you?” I muse. He was trying to hold his ground, but was also preparing to get himself out of here and away from me. “I will have to let Dane know. He wouldn’t want someone as weak as you on the gates.”
“I just mean….”
“What the prick is trying to say is that he has an issue with me being on the gates.” Ryken remarks. “That’s what we were discussing when Dane and Damien came down here and saw the girl. I have told them both.”
“Lycans shouldn’t work the gate.” Emerson snarls at me
“Is that your decision?” I muse “Or maybe you are just saying that because you know a little more about what happened to Madison.”
“I don’t know what happened to her.”
The annoying thing was, he was telling the truth about Madison, but he was definitely hiding something.

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....
