“You said the nurse was upstairs.” Damien presses, “Checking on your mate.”
“Sienna is upstairs, she is Kira’s best friend. She is seeing if she can find any clues as to where Kira might have gone. Sienna was here with him when I was working on the gate.” He nods at the pup in his arms.
“So you lied about her labour in the hopes that what?” I demand. “I wouldn't notice when your mate doesn’t appear.”
“I don’t know. I didn’t think that far ahead. I’m going to look for her.”
“Tracking her down? That’s not going to be ideal with a pup in tow. In fact it’s fucking stupid.” Damien shakes his head
“Um,” Mako’s brow knits together and creases appear across the top of his nose.
“You haven’t thought about that either?” Damien asks
“I could manage. I could look after him while looking for Kira.”
“No you couldn’t, though it was a good thing to bring him here. He’s going to need it when he is older.” Damien tells him.
“Are you saying what I think you are saying?” I ask. Though I'm annoyed that he hadn't mentioned it before.
‘Well Brax could have warned us.’ Aero sneers.
'So could Damien!' I mutter
Damien nods, “That pup is a Lycan.”
“WHAT?!” Mako lets go of the pup, like he was dropping a grenade. Damien flings himself forward, catching the pup before he has a chance to bounce his tiny head off the floor.
Footsteps move upstairs and Sienna appears, leaning over the bannister. She freezes. She would have already known we were in the house so why was she acting like she had just been caught red handed?
Damien straightens up, the newborn cradled against his chest as he glares at Mako. "You shouldn't have done that."
“GET DOWN HERE! I growl at Sienna.
She keeps her eyes on me, but fiddles with her pink hair as she slowly moves down the steps. I point to the spot next to Mako. She side steps around us, her heart racing as I throw the scrunched up paper down at their feet. “Which one of you wrote this?” I demand.
They glance at each other. “Kira” They both speak in unison.
“Bullshit.”
“It’s Kira’s!” Mako mutters
Damien steps back as I squat in front of Mako and grip his face. My nails create crescent moons in his skin. “Kira has done work for me. I would recognise her handwriting anywhere. So I will ask you again, who wrote this?”
“With some guy, I think his name was Coop or Cooper maybe. We were supposed to be joining her. He promised us a better life. A life away from the Lycans.”
I laugh. “You both have a problem with Lycans, yet you are willing to run off and join one.”
They stare at me, both with their jaws hanging open.
“He’s a Wolf?” Sienna protests.
“No, no he is not. But it’s great to see where your loyalty lies.”
“She was packing!” Damien comes back down the stairs with the pup still cradled with one arm and two backpacks dangling from his free hand.
“I figured as much.”
“What are you going to do to us?” Sienna pleads.
“I think you already know the answer to that.”

The readers' comments on the novel: The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West)
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....
This is stolen and as such, a lot of my story is being left out/adjusted. The true version is on Inkitt...
