The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 558
“And you are lucky.” She folds her arms up and sits on a rock. “Thalia comes and goes as she pleases, just like Serkan. They can cross it no problem, but anyone else. " She shakes her head. "We will meet death unless we have permission. You are the first that has tried to get across and the only one that has been successful. I don't know how, but you are lucky and even luckier that I came out when I did. That river, it speeds up at night. The water becomes your enemy. Going faster and faste until it's a blur. Look if you don't believe me.”
I nod my head glancing at the water, “I see that.”
“Can you help us?” She asks. “Can you help us get away from this place?”
“If you tell me what this place is and how I can get in. I might consider it.”
“Why would you want to get in?” She frowns in confusion. “I mean Thalia is why you are here, right? But you can just leave. Just walk away.” She lowers her hood. “People don’t get to leave here. Silas….this was a chance for him, though he didn’t know it and I am so happy he is alive.”
“I came to get Silas’s son.”
Orion straightens his spine as Indy looks at him, her eyebrows knitting together. “It didn’t break.”
“Are you talking about her spell?” I ask
She nods her head at me. “There is no easy way to say this. Silas doesn’t have a son. He never has.”
I drop the shorts before I finish pulling them on. “What are you talking about?”
She closes her eyes as I roll mine and yank the shorts up.
“What do you mean Silas doesn’t have a son? He has twins, one died.”
“No. It’s a spell. I’ve been trying to break it for a few years. To bring him back. She has made him see things that just aren’t there.”
“Scars?”
She bobs her head.
“A house fire, the death of a child?”
“Yes. All of it.” She looks heartbroken and her soul flickers like mad as she talks about him.
“Shit. She’s not his mate. You are.”
A single tear trickles down her face as she nods and Orion pulls her in for a hug.
“If they were sleeping together, it would have killed you.”
Indy shakes her head, “Serkan didn’t like that Silas and I were fated and wanted it stopped. Everything about his life with her is in his head, none of it is real. She doesn't let him touch her. She just needs him for something. I don’t know what. I do know that he didn’t return after the latest run. I heard rumours that he was going after someone special, but I didn’t know who. The delay in him returning has sent Thalia into overdrive. She is angry. More people are getting hurt each day. I thought if he was away, it would break the spell. He would remember his life with me.”
“Yes.”
“Show me.”
“I know you won’t tell me anything, but please can you just tell me if he is okay.” Her golden eyes plead with me.
She gives me a small smile and her soul lights up again. “He never did like how I shut away one side of me. But I am not a teenager. I'm twenty five.”
“Speaking of you means you are in his head somewhere even if you are buried deep below the surface.”
“Do you really think so?”
I nod. “Now I need you to help me knock the wicked witch off of her perch.”

Execcelent! Loved it!...
What about 80? I can only go up to 79...
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 ☺️...
Whether it's pirated or not doesn't really concern me,, when are we getting the final chapters 🥹...
EclecticCelt sounds like your got massive issues because you can't understand something straightforward...
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....
