“Go ahead,” I mutter, “It can’t hurt.”
As Klaus reads to her. I watch for any signs that she could hear him, but there is little more than a finger twitch here and there. But it did seem to be bringing her peace. Her mnd wasn't so hectic.
Footsteps echo in the hallway as feet come running towards us. Klaus and I quickly move to the end of Neah’s bed, blocking her from view just as Devon crashes in through the door.
“Is she okay? Please tell me she is okay!”
I take a step to the side so that he could see her.
“Who the fuck did this? Was it that fucking blonde bitch?”
“Yes.” Klaus answers when I find myself unable to answer. Devon's reactins are strong, similar to how I would protect my sister
“I will kill her!”
“You are a little behind. Dane already had her killed.” Klaus tells him
He moves around me to get closer to Neah, taking her hand in his. “Why won’t she wake up?”
“We don’t know.” Klaus mutters while watching me. “She has had an antidote, all her vitals are good. I think that after years of abuse, her brain has shut down, just temporarily, to recover.”
“Where’s Eric?” I mutter,
“He went to check on his boys. Today, made him realise alot of things."
My eyes narrow, “Why didn’t he answer me when I linked him?”
“We ran into a spot of trouble.”
“In the city?”
“It looks like you were right. He is creating more Lycans. They were waiting for us.”
As the light catches his skin, I notice old stains of blood that hadn’t been wiped away properly.
No one from my businesses had informed me that they were having problems.
“Where too in the city?”
“Eric called it the Southbank, you know, down by the river that passes through. We were attacked, we killed as many as we could. There was no sign of Trey or Cassandra anywhere.”

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????...
