"You don't have a son." She repeats
“Dottie you can’t say things like that.”
“But it’s true.” Her eyes don’t leave mine. “I see him.” She points at me
Clearly I had given her more credit than what was required. Possibly, she was a little nuts.
“Darkness?” Damien asks her an edge of concern to his tone.
She shakes her head. “Just sadness and it’s all empty.”
“I can’t listen to this!” I snap, getting to my feet.
Dorothy grabs my wrist. “Look for the light!”
Pulling my arm free, I leave the house, slamming the door behind me and step out into the evening sun.
‘I don’t understand her,’ Lyall mutters, ‘Is she some kind of Witch?’
‘She’s Brax’s kid, so I’m assuming a Hunter, but she is young, she doesn’t even have her Wolf yet. How can she say we don’t have a son? I’ve already lost one, I can’t lose another.”
I hear the door of the house open and close. Light steps make their way towards me as I turn my face to the sky.
“Are you okay?” Samara asks quietly
I turn to look at her. A fresh mark sat on her neck, one that had already healed. She casually presses a hand to it and smiles, “He marked me earlier when you were out of the house.”
“Thalia’s sits a little lower on her collarbone.” I murmur. The funny thing is, I don't actually remember giving it to he., “Are you happy?”
I nod. I was more than confused. There was no evidence and it was starting to sound like I had fallen into a trap. Maybe they were trying to get information from me. But then why bother bringing me here, to the pack I was born in?
Then there is Dorothy, surely they wouldn’t use her for something so low? I don’t think they would, I see how much Damien and Samara care for her. I’ve seen the other children go to a makeshift school.
And then there were the gaps in my mind. The lack of memories surrounding me marking Thalia. Heat, the twins birth.
‘I think if it was a trap, they would have tried to kill us by now.” Lyall tells me. I didn’t want to admit it, but everything they were saying was just…..
“She knew Cooper, right?” A woman with her hands in her pockets steps out from behind a tree on the outskirts of the forest. She looked similar to Neah except the short dark hair and brown eyes. “Your mate knew him?”
“Silas, this is Blair.” Samara sighs. “Eavesdropping?” She tuts and her arms quickly fold up over her chest.
“If you must know, Ryken told me to wait here. You and your big mouth make it hard for me not to listen.” She sticks her hand out to shake mine “Blair, Neah’s half sister.”

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