The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 386
Blair
My heart races as the two men tower over me, they weren’t in the cell with me and yet it felt like they were taking up all the space.
Dane with his strange crimson eyes, watches me as Abraxas talks but I don’t even hear him over the rush of blood that’s happening inside my head. I do nothing but stare back, trying to make sense of his mouth movements, still, nothing sinks in.
The more I try, the more my head hurts and my lungs feel like they are working overtime. A panic attack Sammie had called it moments before I agreed to have the drip bag removed from my arm.
Abraxas clicks his fingers, “Are you even listening?”
I wanted to say no, tell him that his words are not sinking in, but nothing moves. My muscles fail me in every way possible. I was pretty sure I would piss myself if there were any fluids left in my bladder.
Sammie had said that we have a fight or flight mode embedded in us. It’s only now with no Lycan that I would learn the true meaning of it. But what did it mean when I found myself unable to move or speak to the men who had put me here?
“......... fear.” I only catch Abraxas’s final word. Somehow and somewhere, it seemed like I had forgotten what he was capable of.
I force myself to lower my head and take a few deep breaths. Is this how everyone had felt moments before I killed them? Did they feel like everything was moving in slow motion as they faced their death? Or were they paralysed with fear?
The back of my eyes burn as I try to hold in the tears. I was already weak enough without them seeing me in a blubbering mess. Something that I would have laughed at if it were anyone else.
The cell door is pulled open and Dane moves towards me. He grabs my elbow and rips me up onto my feet.
“What…what are you doing?” I croak.
He smiles at me, but it looks forced, or maybe it has a hidden meaning. It’s pointless for me to try and guess, he wouldn’t tell me anyway.
A tear breaks free and I wish I was able to wipe it away without them seeing but with my hands still bound together, it's impossible and instead it runs freely down my cheek.
Abraxas brings a chair into my cell and Dane forces me on it. Abraxas holds a cup to my mouth, the cool liquid tickles my lips but I turn my head away. Poison would be a slow death even without my abilities.

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?...
