Shifting back to human form, he quietly asks if I’m okay and pulls clothes from the bag.
“Why are we up here?”
“Like I said, this is where Alpha Dane told me to bring you if I needed to get you to safety”
Why hadn’t Alpha Dane ever mentioned it to me?
“When?”
“Hmm?” He is still looking out at the grounds and not paying attention to me. I hadn’t heard anything apart from those footsteps outside my bedroom door. I hadn’t seen any other Lycans and the growing pit in my stomach was making me feel sick.
“When…when did he tell you?”
“Yesterday. When you were in the hospital.”
I didn’t know if he was lying or telling the truth. I just knew this was wrong. Being here, everything felt wrong. And where was Alpha Dane? He must be feeling my panic. I wish I could link him.
“Hungry?” Devon asks, as I lower myself to the floor.
“No.”
“Are you sure? You haven’t really left your room all afternoon.”
He had been watching?
“I’m fine.” I murmur, glancing over to the forest. Hoping that some of them would come back. Alpha Dane, Klaus, Beta Eric, anyone.
“Suit yourself.” He mutters.
I could feel his eyes on me, waiting for me to move. If I don’t fight, maybe it would buy me some time, maybe he would leave me alone.
“You gave me quite a scare.” He mutters, biting into an apple. “That fucking bitch drugging you, that was never the plan.”
“Plan?” I pull my knees to my chest and keep my eyes low.
“Alpha Trey’s plans were nearly ruined.” He takes another bite of the apple
Alpha Trey, he was working for him all along
“Are you….are you even my brother?”
“Nope. I just have a very strong resemblance to your family. Alpha Trey made sure of it, he knew it would be the only way for you to believe me.”

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????...
