Dane.
“Why is this happening to me?” Jess asks me quietly. Her blue eyes are wide as she stares at me. “Why me?”
“As much as I hate to say it, you were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
"Right." Her voice is hollow and she blinks back the tears
"We can help you."
“Why do you even care?” I hear the resentment in her question.
“Because my mate was just like you. She wasn’t changed, but she was lied to and made to believe she was something else her entire life. When Neah found out the truth, she called herself a monster too.”
“Right.” She didn’t believe me
“You should spend more time with her. Come stay in the packhouse. Eric is there most of the time anyway, especially now his boys have left with their grandparents.”
Her eyebrows knit together, and thankfully the tears have stopped. “You…you won’t hurt me?”
I smile, I had no intention of hurting a kid. “No.”
“Can you find out if my family are okay?”
“Of course.”
She sighs. “What will happen to me?”
“What do you mean?”
“You said that I wouldn’t be able to see my family again. You said you were a Wolf even though you look like a Vampire from the tv shows. You said I’m a Lycan, so where do I go?”
“I suggest that you stay here, become a permanent member of the pack. You will be safe, you will be protected. You will have to learn what it’s like to live here. We have expectations.”
She nods her head at me, her red hair swaying around her face.
“One of those being that you don’t intentionally hurt yourself.”
She hadn’t just been covered in claw wounds. Her arms were covered in old scars too. Ones that happened before she was turned. A pink tinge creeps up her cheeks and she nods her head at me.
“Follow me.” I mutter, rising to my feet. She follows me from the blood splattered room, keeping her eyes low.
“Jess,” I murmur, stopping by my sister and Klaus. “You already know Klaus, but this is my younger sister, Raven.”
“Are you okay?” Raven asks
Jess nods her head and continues to keep her eyes low and her lips pressed together.
“I’m taking her to the packhouse.”
“Are you sure?” I could hear my sisters concern.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West)
Ugh! Just when i went to go press next chapter, the 10 daily chapters were finished🥲 lol totally loving this book. Different from the other shifter books that i've read in a good way....
I'm so happy I found this here! I was reading it on GoodNovel but I deleted the app after learning they take away "watch the ads to unlock chapters" once you make a purchase. It rubbed me wrong they pretty much "punish" you once you give them your money and take away for you to read the chapters for free, so I deleted app. I'm happy I found it here and excited to read it on here!!...
Could it be Eric?...
I am curious though, is Neah's instinct about Mallory correvt though? Is Mallory trustworthy? I am also having my doubts about her...
I love this story...
I wish we could just get all the chapters. I'm dying to know more....
Why is this so good???...
As of chapter 60. I agree with Neah. She is not required to care. Leave the a-holes to their fate....
This is really a good novel.. I liked the slow character developments of protogonists.. specially Neah's courage n Dame's patience!!...
Listen is not enough... what about 15 a day??? Or 20??? Or the rest of them????...
