‘We can take her.’ Dakota mutters as they walk away.
“No. That will just add fuel to the fire that I’m already trying to extinguish. Besides, she is Neah’s half sister.”
‘But they don’t get along.’
“Maybe not, but I don’t want to risk being kicked out.” I groan
‘Because you want to be with Damien!’
****
Damien didn’t come back for hours and since he has been back, he has barely spoken a word to me. He didn’t seem angry. But he sits at the small table in the kitchen, an arm resting on the top as his fingers drum the wood.
“Is Dorothy coming back tonight?” I ask quietly. School would have finished a couple of hours ago. And at least she would break the tension that seemed to be surrounding us.
“Sleepover.” He mutters as his dark eyes find mine.
“That’s nice.” I wasn’t sure what I should say. Being around him made me nervous, but it also made my heart flutter. “She didn’t mention it this morning.”
I was trying so hard to keep the conversation light. Maybe he had changed his mind about me being here. What if Blair had said something to him.
“I asked if she could stay with Mallory for the night.”
“Oh.”
“So we could have the place to ourselves.”
“What?”
I roll off the sofa and smack my head on the coffee table as I hit the floor.
“Ow!” Looking around, I realise I am alone. Damien had never returned and it was dark outside.
I feel the warmth of my blood trickle down my forehead and quickly get to my feet. Why did the dream have to seem so real?
Moving upstairs to the bathroom, I look in the mirror and scan the small inch long cut. It was already healing, which was weird to watch. I had never been able to heal until Cooper's power over me was broken.
Using a cloth, I wipe away the blood and groan. It had been a long time since a man I liked had invaded my dreams like that.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West)
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....
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?...
