The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 438

“He was counting on you turning up.” I tell her. “If anything, he was annoyed that you hadn’t. He has enough syringes full of drugs to wipe out more than the people in this pack. Essentially, he could turn us all Human.”

“Was it intentional for it to wear off so quickly? Was that what he wanted?”

“I don’t think so. He seemed surprised when he realised I wasn’t drugged anymore. Hence stabbing me.”

“It’s because he is a Hunter.” Brax shrugs his shoulders like it’s no big deal.

“What does that have to do with anything?”

“Oh come on, Mister Research.” Brax rolls his eyes at me, “Are you seriously telling me you have created her whole family tree, going back centuries, but you haven’t even bothered to look up your own ancestry?”

“Well, I have been a little preoccupied.”

“You are a fast healer, right?”

“I guess so. I always just put that down to being lucky.”

Brax rolls his eyes at me. “You are a Hunter. As much as that word should not be connected to you. It is. Hunter’s are fast healers. We heal like Alpha’s because we are our own kind. Have you ever seen me with a wound?”

“That’s why the drugs didn’t stay in his system long?” Neah scowls

“Bingo.”

“But there is also something else you should know about Hunters.” His eyes flicker around the grounds. “That maybe we should discuss inside.”

He gestures to the door and Neah is the first through it. She leads us into the office and takes Danes' seat behind the desk. “Well?”

“This is information I never thought would come in handy.”

“Spit it out Brax.” I snap. I was done with this. I need a good sleep and a space to clear my mind.

“If you haven’t done research on yourself. I’m guessing you haven’t done much on Hunter’s in general?”

“I haven’t needed too. Generally if I ask you, you will tell me what I want to know.”

He sits on the corner of the desk, much to Neah’s annoyance. “Hunter’s don’t just hunt Rogues.”

“What?”

“Actually, that is the wrong phrase. There are Hunter’s that don’t hunt Rogues.”
