The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 548
He stares back at me. “I know that. And that is why I am confused by her reaction. Now she refuses to speak to me. I have no idea if Quinn is okay. I don’t know what is happening up there. Though I do know they are alive.”
“Why is she refusing to accept what you are saying?”
“Your guess is as good as mine. And I don’t think I’m going to know until she is here.” His tattooed hand wraps around the mug and he takes a long swig.
“Remind me how you knew you were mated to her.” I press
‘Shit, do you think she tricked him?’ Nyx whispers. ‘Just like Cooper did it to the others?’
‘We are about to find out.’
He rolls his eyes at me, “I was coming back from a run and she was just walking up the road. Her scent hit me like a tonne of bricks. She denied it, but in the end, she couldn’t fight it.” He stops and looks at me. “Why are you asking me this, when you already know? Do you think I’m lying?”
“Curiosity.” I mutter. “You had a set of twins?”
He dips his head again.
“What happened to the other one?”
“Thalia….” He closes his eyes. “She was at home with Jarret, alone. I had taken Quinn to run some errands. The boys were a year old but Jarret was acting more clingy than usual. He wanted Thalia and no one but Thalia. If I hadn’t taken Quinn with me, we might have lost them both.”
I drag out a chair and lower myself into it. Quietly waiting for more.
“She was exhausted. Jarret hadn’t been sleeping, but the healers could find nothing wrong. Serkan said it was probably a phase.” He shakes his head. “I shouldn’t have gone out.” He lets out a heavy sigh and closes his eyes. “Jarret had finally settled and Thalia fell asleep. An alarm went off and when I raced back, our house was a ball of orange flames. Thalia escaped with just a burn mark up her neck and face. Jarret didn’t survive.” His face hardens. “You wanted to hear the story, are you happy?” He stares at me. “Is that what you wanted to hear?”
“I’m sorry.” I mutter. I couldn’t imagine losing any one of my children. But what if the story he is telling is wrong? He wasn’t there at the time. He only knows what he has been told.
‘Then there is his mate.’ Nyx tells me, ‘She can control fire, but she burns?’
‘Are you saying she shouldn’t?’ I ask her, confused.
'A bit of a weird ability to have if it can hurt you, don’t you think?’
‘You think she killed her son?’ I was about to ask what kind of parent would do that, but I already knew the answer to that.
‘I think there is a lot we still don’t know.’
I silently wished that Klaus was still here. Not because of him being a Witch Hunter, but because he could research it. He would know where to look. I will ask Dane to link him. Maybe Klaus had discovered some things on his journey already.
“Are you talking to your Lycan?” Silas asks. “Your eyes went dark.”

Just loving how you keep trying to block me swnovels...
Hi Taylor, I found your book by accident. I really enjoy your writing, but I must admit that there’s a little more sex than I am use to, most likely because of my age 😁. I was wondering if you have released them in ebook ? I have read some of your notes to your readers and I know that you have written other books but I can’t find them in ebook format. I live in Sweden and have enjoyed reading this story as the dark nights get longer and longer. I am looking forward to re-joining Dane and Neah’s story. Thank you for sharing your marvelous talent.

Why are you ignoring the DMCA the author sent?...
I'm so glad it's being posted here, I don't have the income to pay 250 in order to unlock all the chapters. However, whenever the physical book comes out, I'll be the first to buy them. I love the story, love the way it is written (typos and all) I just cannot pay all of that money, the app is ridiculously predatory....
book 2: Bonds that bind us...
I don’t see the name of the new book. Could you please resend it?...
