The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 424
“My escort?”
“He wants to keep a specific eye on you. Not my choice, but I do not get a say in the matter.”
“Who?” I ask quietly, already fearing the answer.
“The Hunter. So I suggest…”
“I do everything he asks and answer his questions.” I answer quickly
He nods. “You will be over in the gardens today, checking the fruits and veg and doing some weeding.”
“I can do that.” Though I wasn’t quite sure how I will feel with Abraxas breathing down my neck.
“Here,” Mum holds out a paper bag for me. “I made you some lunch.”
“You didn’t….”
“I know. I will see you later.”
A new feeling was bubbling up inside of me and I was certain I was going to cry again but not from anger or sadness. From something else entirely
“Thanks.” I whisper, but she had already turned away.
I open the door to see Abraxas rubbing his temples. “So you didn’t try to run then? I was counting on it.”
“So you would have another reason to kill me?” I ask
“Maybe. Though it does seem like you are catching on. Let’s go. I hope you have green fingers.”
I follow him to the gardens, rows and rows of different plants that multiple people were working on. They all look up and glare at me. Abraxas nods to a woman with long red wavy hair. She slowly makes her way towards me with a bucket of small tools.
Pulling off a glove she holds her hand out to me. “I’m Maddie.”
“You’re the woman they talked about. The one that was stripped of her abilities?”
“No, not a chance. I’m still healing from Cooper.”
“I hope he gets what’s coming to him. To do this and take away who we are, it’s worse than death.” I sigh.
“I’m sure they will find a way to deal with him. Neah is pretty smart and so is Dane. They always win.” She gives me a big smile.
“I really hope that they win this one.” I was still so unsure.
I work for hours, letting Maddie show me how to do certain things. Not once did Abraxas stand over me, but he always stayed where he could see me.
He walks me to my new home in silence. I wanted to say something, anything, but ultimately decide to keep my mouth shut.
He knocks on the door and waits for Ryken to answer. As soon as he does, Abraxas walks away without a single word and that’s worse than when he does speak.

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....
