The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 590

Neah

“You still haven’t said anything,” Samara whispers as she eyeballs me.

“She’s talking to Nyx,” Damien tells her.

The longer Samara waits for me to talk, the more jittery she becomes. Shifting her weight from one foot to the other, slurping on her coffee or glancing over my shoulder at Damien.

“Dakota,” I mutter. “She told you that you are my Beta.”

“Yep. Look… I only know what she has told me. Honestly, it’s not the end of the world to me, maybe her, but not me. I’m just grateful to be alive. You are still allowing me to settle in. Letting me live here. Just because she said it’s true, I don’t expect it to ever be something you acknowledge. You have Damien, and he is good at his job. And you have Eric.” She gives him a big smile.

“That’s why you are here, isn’t it?” Damien asks. “Because of this Beta business.”

“I’m trying to figure out some things,” I sigh. I wasn't quite ready to discuss my entire thoughts.

“You are not planning on running off to help the others, are you?”

I frown. “You sound just like Dane, but no, I can’t, and I won’t. I’ve just had the girls. And I’m not Cooper. I can’t just project myself into White Cliffs. Though that would be a useful gift to have right now.”

“Then, at least try and explain your thought process because you are not making any sense.”

“I think I know what she is trying to figure out,” Samara mutters. Her grey eyes hover on me. “I don’t have the answer. I only know what I am told by Dakota. She thinks our fates have always been tied. That even though we never grew up together we were supposed to find one another. A renewed bond for Kitsons, a future for Lycans.”

“Go on,” Damien encourages her.

“Dakota thinks with Neah being Alpha and me being her Beta, our bloodline is stronger and thicker than it has been in centuries." Her eyes shift back to me. "And right now, I wish she would stop talking because it makes me sound like I’m trying to make a decision for you. Which I am not.”

Damien snorts but keeps his mouth closed.

‘Exactly what we are thinking.’ Nyx mutters

‘A bond stronger than a mate bond?’ I ask Nyx. ‘Is that even possible?’

‘Weirder things have happened. Kitson blood is the backbone of Lycans.’
