Roan makes me jump. He is sitting outside the office door when I enter the packhouse. He rises to his feet when he sees me. His dark grey eyes drift down to my blood covered hand.
“You killed him?” His tone is empty, but he continues to stare at me like he had since we first met.
“Yes, he is dead.” I don’t know what it is about this man, but he brings out my irritation just by existing.
“That makes you the last one. Well, you and Jess.”
I don’t like the way he is looking at me and his eyes settle on my stomach. “Do we know what they are?”
“Dane’s heirs.” I mutter back
“You know that is not what I am asking.”
“And still, that is what they are!” I snap. “Unborn members of this pack. Can I ask you a question?”
“Ask?”
“The bitten, the ones changed, whatever you want to call it. How did they end up in your city?”
“The same way as they ended up in the city down the road.”
“How long have you known there were Lycans?”
He stares at me, pressing his lips together.
“You knew. You knew before they started turning up in your city. When you were told, you barely reacted. How long have you known?”
He shrugs his shoulders at me.
‘He’s an asshole!’ Nyx growls
“You didn’t come just because of the contract, did you?”
“In parts, yes. I don't walk away from my commitments. Though I was excited to hear that the great Alpha Dane had finally settled down. I was curious until I heard your name. Neah Kitson. It’s not a name you forget easily.” He rises from the chair.
I frown, taking a step back. “I’ve never met you.”
“But you have. A long time ago. You were little, a few months old. I was ten, maybe eleven. Your parents were in my family’s city. They abandoned you.”

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????...
