The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

Chapter 0349



"I'm more concerned with the guy thinking he is better than everyone else." Dane murmurs

"I wouldn't worry about it. You have more than enough people here to protect everyone." I shrug my shoulders.

"What if he is already here?" Neah asks. “Lycans have been arriving in groups for days. Some have even said they found each other on the way here. What if that is what he did?"

"There is no one here by the name of Cooper." Damien mutters. He had been keeping a checklist of everyone.

"You heard her, 'if it was even his real name."" Neah scowls

"I wouldn't worry too much, every asshole shows themselves eventually." I turn to walk away and Damien stops me.

"Where were you this morning?"

"Do I really need to answer that?"

"Dottie was looking for you."

"I was watching."

"She didn't need you to watch, she needed you to be present."

"I saw you Damien. You wanted to punch Ryken into the ground, how do you think I would have handled it? My guess is, you already know the answer. Now if you will excuse me, I have some business I need to attend to."

I walk off across the grounds, disappearing behind Mallory's burnt out home and dip into the forest.

It's not long before I could hear Madison talking to someone.

She tells someone with a heavy sigh, like she had been repeating the
