The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 551
Brax
White Cliffs was north, that was the extent of my knowledge. Somewhere I had never been before, but then I never had a reason for a visit, there were always enough Rogues down south.
I flip open the notebook with Silas’s directions and information. And still the castle was not at all what I was expecting.
Stretched out across a cliff and surrounded by a concrete wall that is easily twelve feet tall, maybe more. Clearly the wall was not just designed to stop people getting in, but people getting out.
I glance down at the image Silas had drawn. It was exactly the same, turrets and all. It wasn’t until he told Damien and I that a spell had been put on this place, that it began to make sense. Hiding it from plain sight. Thankfully, I wasn’t blind to it.
Heavy gates sit closed, but surprisingly no one guards them. Between us is a fast flowing river that leads to a waterfall at the cliff side. The water crashes down onto the rocks below. Even standing here, I knew the sea below was rough, stopping people from arriving on boats, just like Samara had told everyone.
A single drawbridge that is closed, stops me going any further. It wasn’t going to be easy to get inside, but like anything, there would be a weak point.
My eyes move back to the castle. Silas could have warned me that the people here lived in medieval times.
I could hear people. Happy people. Not a single sound of someone who is in trouble. Music plays and the smell of a roasting hog is strong in the air. It takes me a second to realise they are celebrating something.
Behind me, footsteps are slowly and quietly edging forward. Turning my head slightly, the footsteps stop.
“How did you know I was behind you?” A female calls out. She brings her hand up and a little ball of fire appears, hovering just above her palm. So much for her not using her ability in years.
“Put it away Thalia.”
“How do you know my name? And how did you get through the barrier?”
“Silas.” I mutter his name and the ball of fire disappears as she drops her hand.
“You have spoken to Silas?” She seems to have forgotten the other question that she asked.
“More than you.” I turn to face her properly. Tight curls hang down to her shoulders, a fringe stretches down to her lilac eyes. Though there is no scar on her face like there had been in the photo. She didn’t even look as though she had been touched by fire. But then why would she.
“You don’t know anything, Hunter.” She spits

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?...
