Dane
“It wasn’t a test.” I murmur.
“What….what was it?” She continues to frown at me.
“He is the best tutor I could find for you. And the only one who I know that will not lay a hand on you. I need to know that you will be able to have sessions with him without me present. As much as I enjoy watching you figure things out. I have a pack to run. And I still need to figure out where Trey and Cassandra disappeared too.”
Her frown retreats.
“Not everyone is out to hurt you Neah.”
“He….he asked me why I was bound.”
“I know. I heard.”
“Is that okay ....I mean, what I told him? Should I… I have told him more?”
“You didn’t lie.” I smile at her. “But I do think it is time for me to have a pack meeting and tell everyone. If you shift, Neah, and I am not around…..” I trail off as I look into her blue eyes. She feared people knowing what she is. She feared their response.
“I won’t shift.”
“Unfortunately, you can’t guarantee that. Devon said there are a lot of similarities. You most likely won’t be able to control the first time. It will happen when you least expect it. And honestly, I thought you would have shifted when you saw Veronica.”
“Oh.” Her blue eyes start to glisten with tears
She hadn’t asked me much about shifting. And from her reaction, I could tell that she hoped to be able to control it so that it would never happen.
“Come, you must be hungry.” I murmur before her panic has a chance to truly take over.
She nods her head and takes my hand, silently walking with me into the house.
“Go on through to the kitchen, I just need to check on something.” I could smell Veronica in my office and didn’t want Neah to be anywhere near her.
‘What the fuck does she want now? We made ourselves clear.’ Aero mutters. He just wanted to be with Neah and so did I. I was very aware that she could come into heat at any moment.
Reluctantly, Neah lets go of my hand and heads in the direction of the kitchen.
The light catches her grey eyes as she grins. “I have seen. I always knew you would be a great Alpha. You just need the right Luna by your side. Are you sure she is the right one?” She twirls with her blonde hair.
“You shouldn’t judge people you don’t know.”
Veronica rolls her eyes at me. “I saw her Dane. She is weak, and full of fear, not fearless like me. A Luna who is fearful is a useless Luna.”
“Like I said, you don’t know her. Now unless you have something of importance to tell me, you can go.”
She frowns and heads to the door. “She won’t make you happy, Dane.”
I watch her to make sure she leaves the house.
‘She’s never going to give up,’ Aero mutters. ‘We would be better off killing her.’
'And when that time comes, I won’t hesitate, but right now, she is not an issue.’
I find Raven in the kitchen with Neah, both of them sharing a tub of ice cream.

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