The Alpha’s Contract (Taylor West) novel Chapter 147

I swing my legs over the bed and push myself up. It took more effort than I expected but as soon as I am up, I made my way out into the hallway. Now I had thought about food, I realised I was starving.

Heading towards the stairs, my legs give out from under me, plummeting me down each step. My head hits something and everything goes dark.

“Ow!” I mutter, stretching myself out. My hand automatically goes between my thighs. No blood, thank fuck for that. These pups were stronger than expected.

There’s a knock on the front door.

“Come in.” I mutter from the floor.

“Shit. Are you alright?”

Unfamiliar dark eyes appear and a hand slides into mine, helping me up.

“You must be Damien?” I mutter, noticing his neck tattoos while rubbing the back of my head. If I had a wound, it would have probably healed by now anyway.

“I am, though this was not the way I intended on introducing myself. You should get checked out.”

“I’m fine.”

“You are pregnant though. I can smell it.”

“I will be fine.” I spit out the final word

He nods his head at me as I sit on the bottom step. “You may think so, but you should still get yourself looked at. You are the female Alpha.”

I roll my eyes at him. “Is that why you are here? You are looking for someone to lead you?”

“I’m looking for the only person that can lead us.” His dark stare is intense. If I didn’t know better, I would say he had learned it from Dane. But something tells me it was the way he always looked at things, even when he was human. “And I want to offer you my protection.”

Nyx snorts and I almost do too. But his face is serious. “From what?”

“Whatever is coming.”

“What is coming?” I ask
