The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 493

“How long have you been following us?” I ask as his footsteps crunch on the ground.

Brax steps up behind me “Long enough.”

“I was going to kill her.”

“And if you had, it may just screw things up between you and Neah.”

I spin around to look at him. “Neah understands more than you will ever know. I was going to kill Eris for her, for us, for our family. Letting her go would have been a mistake.”

“We all know that.” He walks to Eris who is still slumped against a tree. Using his fingers, he carefully closes her eyelids. “But Neah is pregnant and she is going to need you. And this way, you don’t need to lie to her. Besides, Neah already knows that I will do what I need to do, to ensure that she and her babies are safe. That was the deal right?"

“I wasn’t going to lie.”

“Okay.” He mutters, pulling Eris over his shoulder. “Let me deal with this, you head back.”

I take my time going back to Neah. I wasn’t sure why Brax thought I would lie to my mate. I had no intention of lying, that wasn’t the agreement between Neah and I. I just needed to kill Eris first. At least now, she was another problem cut from our lives.

‘Dane, come to mine!’ Eric links me

‘What’s the problem?’

‘Um, it’s a little too complicated for me to explain. Just hurry.’

Eric is outside with Luca and Logan when I arrive. “What’s happening?”

“Evrin.” He points to the house and I hear a crash come from inside. “Mall is trying to contain him.”

“He’s shifted?” I ask as there is another crash along with Mallory telling Evrin to stop.

Eric nods at me

I walk inside to a house looking like a tornado had ripped through it. Furniture was uprooted, broken dishes scattered the floor. Clothes and food had been flung around the room.

I hear Mallory upstairs, talking and trying to calm my son down. It’s met with growls and footsteps pounding across the floor.

Evrin tears down the stairs towards me, throwing his Lycan frame at me. His arms lock around my neck as he buries his nose against me. His breaths are heavy and his heart races but as I hold him, I feel his body grow heavy and he slowly starts shifting back.

A frazzled Mallory descends the stairs, staring at me. “Is that really all it has taken?”
