“You’re letting him out.” Beta Eric asks and I couldn’t help but notice the slight pinkish tint to his peachy skin.
“It’s your choice.” Alpha Dane mutters to me. “And if you do decide too, there will be conditions that he has to meet.”
“Anything!” Devon beams at us. “I will literally do anything! I’m desperate for some sunlight.”
What if I make the wrong decision? What if I say yes and all this has been complete lies? What if the moment I let him out, he brings Trey straight to us? Choices were not my strong point.
Stepping out into the snow, Alpha Dane grabs my hand, just as Devon mutters something about the sun on his skin being a glorious feeling.
“I am never going in a cell again.” Devon's hand catches mine. “Thank you so much. I promise you, I will be the brother you deserve.” He straightens up in front of Alpha Dane and clears his throat, trying to force his voice a note lower and making himself sound almost serious.
“Alpha Dane, don’t fuck with my sister.”
I see the small twitch at the corner of Alpha Dane’s lips. He wasn’t a man who could be told what to do. He lived and played by his own rules.
“Oh come on.” Devon muses, “I had to do the brotherly thing.”
“I will let you have that one.” Alpha Dane replies, “But I will remind you, that although Neah let you out, I can quite easily put you back in the cell and this time, there will be no benefits.”
“Sure sure sure.” Devon puffs out his cheeks, turning around “Someone’s on a mission.”
I follow his gaze to see Veronica charging towards us. I would just like to make it a few hours without dealing with her.
“Dane, I’ve been looking for you.” Her statement was for Alpha Dane, but her eyes were ogling Devon.
“Veronica, now is not the time.”
“I’ve been speaking to some of the others.” She continues anyway.
“Of course you have.”
“They are worried about her shifting.” She points at me, even though it was obvious who she meant.
Devon snorts.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t know you.” She mutters, a small smile on her face as she uses her biceps to squeeze her breast even higher. She somehow trips, bumping into me and Devon helps her back up.
“You can call me Devon.”
“Veronica.” Alpha Dane steps in, “You said you had been talking to the others.”
Her eyes narrow at me. “We want to know when she is going to shift. We want to know if you are putting us in danger!”
“Who is we?”
“Uh…..”
“You, Veronica, you mean you.” Alpha Dane sighs. He pulls me in against him, draping his arm over my shoulders. “Veronica, you may have saved my life, but you are running out of life lines.”
“I’m only asking a question.” She splutters
His voice drops to that commanding tone of his. “You are questioning my decisions.”
“No!” She was so angry that she wasn’t getting her way. It made me wonder how many things she had been allowed to get away with over the years. Just for a second, I wished that she could experience the life I had. Maybe then she wouldn’t be such a bitch.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West)
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....
This is stolen and as such, a lot of my story is being left out/adjusted. The true version is on Inkitt...
