“What do you need?” Damien and Dane ask in unison.
Raven starts making a list as I watch Mallory drift into unconsciousness.
“Hurry. But be careful, we don't know where Salem is.” She mutters as the men disappear out the back door.
Raven works to clean Mallory’s stomach, prepping it for whatever she needs to do. I find myself unable to move. I was inches away from getting my revenge for what she had down to me and yet6 I couldn't say the words.
“Damien will never forgive me if she dies.” Raven mutters, pushing intestines back in the gaping wound
My eyes flicker up to her, but she isn’t looking at me, instead, she is too focussed on saving Mallory.
If I stop her from helping Mallory, it would put her matebond with Damien at risk. She will hate me for taking away her chance at happiness. I couldn’t lose the one friend I have.
“Can you save her?” I ask quietly
“I think so.” she gives me a tight lipped smile. “The wound higher up has already healed which is a good sign. But I think her stomach is a bit like my leg. I won’t be able to tell until I can get in there properly.”
She sighs. “I know you have issues with her, Neah. I know a million ideas are probably running through your head right now, but this is what I signed up for. Saving people and helping them has always been my dream. Please don’t let me leave her to die.”
‘It’s your choice. I will stand by you no matter what you decide.’ Nyx murmurs.
“Is there anything I can do to help?” It was so hard forcing the words from my mouth.
Raven gives me a small smile. “Give me your hand.”
She takes my hand and places it on Mallory’s neck. “Normally, I would listen to her pulse, but it’s not clear. Her body is going through mass amounts of trauma so you have to trust what you feel. Do you feel it?”

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????...
