The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 608
“Our souls don’t break.”
“What?” I scoff, “What the hell are you talking about? You have made it quite clear that they do. You have said that too many cracks can tear someone apart, like what almost happened to Neah.”
“Hunters,” he sighs. “A Hunter’s soul doesn’t break.”
“How is that even possible?”
“It’s the way we are born. Maybe it is why I can see souls so well,” he shrugs.
I look over at his glass. He has only had a tiny bit of brandy and slowly swills the liquid around the glass.
“You didn’t think to tell me this before?” I ask.
“Would it have changed anything? You care for my daughter, and as much as I don’t like admitting it, I am grateful. You were the Dad she needed when I wasn’t around.” He knocks back the rest of his drink.
“Even if you are grateful, what happens if Serkan or Thalia find out about her? I know Dottie is capable of something more than what I already know. I feel it in my bones. She is powerful in her own right, and that means she could be useful to them. We already know Cooper got to Kade. We don’t need the same thing happening to Dottie.”
“They won’t touch her if they know what's good for them. Besides, they want Neah.”
“What better way to go after someone than to hurt the children Neah holds close to her heart?”
“They can try,” he sneers and taps his empty glass on the table, lost in thought.
“Is it Dottie’s mother?” I try again, eager for answers. “Just give me a yes or a no. I can do my own research.”
He dips his chin.
“And I guess Dottie’s mother is why you won’t mark Maddie! It’s not anything to do with her being a Lycan, is it?” I press.
Annoyance flashes in his eyes.
“You told me to let go of Raven, to let myself be happy with Samara. Why can’t you do the same?”
“It’s not that easy,” he spits through gritted teeth. “She was a big part of my life and gave me a beautiful daughter. I promised to love her until the day I die.”
“You can’t move on because you haven’t grieved for her.” I stare at him in surprise. He was big on letting people accept death. He encouraged people to grieve, yet he hadn’t, and it had been years since her death.
He gets to his feet, “Thanks for the drink.”

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....
This is stolen and as such, a lot of my story is being left out/adjusted. The true version is on Inkitt...
OMG! This is stolen and the person who has uploaded it doesn't have the authors permission! It's disgusting tou can steal someone's hard earned work! Please come find the true author on FB Taylor west pack and this one will never be finished....
I love this book! It was a sample read for an advertised app that you must pay to keep reading. I wasn't willing to pay for each chapter, so I searched and found this site. Something I'd like to see more of is time passing. We had a little during Neah’s pregnancy, and there was a recent mention that Neah had been in the pack for two years; I didn't know that much time had passed. Until I heard it had been two years, I thought all the events were happening back to back. That's why it would be nice to have a sense of the passage of time—just a thought....
Is there an update when the next chapter will be available?...
