The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 408
“Do you always like being alone?”
“Yes.”
A small crinkle forms on his forehead. “Never been concerned about finding a mate?”
“No.”
“Isn’t that what all males want? To find their loved one and settle down.”
“Not me.” Now that my eyes could focus on the smaller details, I could see my comment frustrates him. “Life for me has never been about finding a mate. I was raised differently. What I like is knowledge.”
“Power?”
“No, knowledge. I like to know things, figure things out, find little secrets hidden among life.”
“That explains all the books.” A small smile flickers at the corners of his lips. “What else do you like to do?”
“Why do you want to know?”
“If you need to give it a name, call it curiosity.” He had twisted his body around to face me properly. His scent of leather and tobacco is strong, but it was a trick. A trick that I wasn’t going to fall for.
“I like to help people.”
“But you don’t want to help me?” He cocks an eyebrow at me.
“You found me in the hospital, what kind of help do you think I offer?!”
“You are right. But you could help me and I could help you.”
I roll my eyes
“Not open to that yet. That’s fine, but you will be. You will want to help me, because that’s what mates do.”
“Is that what you said to all the others?”
He laughs to himself, spinning back around in the chair and propping his feet up on the coffee table. “I don’t think I have enjoyed anyone’s company as much as yours, mate.”
“Stop calling me that.”
“I will call you mate until you finally see the truth.”
Cooper surprises me by going back to sleep. He could probably tell I was almost at full strength again and he had done nothing apart from block the front door. Pulling my wrists open, I’m able to break the rope. Quickly and quietly, I get to my feet, checking the windows for another exit.

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...
OMG! This is stolen and the person who has uploaded it doesn't have the authors permission! It's disgusting tou can steal someone's hard earned work! Please come find the true author on FB Taylor west pack and this one will never be finished....
I love this book! It was a sample read for an advertised app that you must pay to keep reading. I wasn't willing to pay for each chapter, so I searched and found this site. Something I'd like to see more of is time passing. We had a little during Neah’s pregnancy, and there was a recent mention that Neah had been in the pack for two years; I didn't know that much time had passed. Until I heard it had been two years, I thought all the events were happening back to back. That's why it would be nice to have a sense of the passage of time—just a thought....
Is there an update when the next chapter will be available?...
