She sticks her tongue out to the corner of her lips, deep in thought. I was just grateful she wasn’t mad at me anymore.
“Do you have any idea why he is doing this?”
“At this point, I think tormenting everyone is his game. He told Mallory he wanted to bring death and a load of other crap. But the one thing I know about him is that he likes to play games. This has to be a game.”
“Could he be working with someone else?”
“The other Rogues are dead.”
“Dane has enemies left and right. And now the contracts are well and truly completed with other packs, what’s to say there isn’t someone else helping him.”
“Rogues are not pack creatures. They wouldn’t even work together to take down a kill.”
She puffs out her cheeks, “It must be hard for you. Living here, in a pack.”
“Actually, no.” I sink onto the bed next to her. “I spent years working alone, being a hitman for people to hire. Being a Rogue was freeing, but I felt like I was missing something. Then I found Mallory, she helped to free me from that life. But being welcomed into this pack and finding you, it was like coming home.”
She smiles at me and opens her mouth to talk but we are interrupted with Mallory opening the door.
She is half hidden by the door frame and is visibly shaking. It wasn’t like her at all. She was pretty much unafraid of anything
She holds her shaking hands up, blood dripping from each of them. “I….I’m….I’m sorry.”
“Mallory?”
“I….I went down.” She turns slowly, looking back down the hallway from the direction she came. “I was…I was too late.”
She steps in the room. I see her top isn’t just coloured red, instead blood is dripping from it. “I tried,” she whispers.
“Who Mallory, who is dead?”

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????...
