The Alpha’s Contract by Taylor West

Chapter 0565

I sense Xavi is nervous. I knew his story, he had told me exactly what happened to him. How he was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. He was exactly like me. A Witch Hunter. Though at the time of his curse, he had been drunk and unable to focus, celebrating the killing of another Witch. Before he had a chance to do anything, she cursed him to live forever as a Wolf.

"Are you worried?" I ask him

'I've been a Wolf for six years. A part of me has forgotten what it's like to live in Human form. To walk on two feet. To not have to hunt for every gram of food. To be accepted for what I am, who I am. I am worried, but not for me. I don't want her to do the same to you. You have a family waiting for you."

"I have learned alot about myself." I remind Xavi. He had been with me every step of the way as I sought information. I had also learned a lot about Witches. Some from him, some from the hidden secrets of my past. "I wouldn't have been able to do it without you."

'I'm not exactly a good Witch Hunter am I?' He mutters, closing his eyes

"I think we are stronger together."

He falls asleep as I listen to the rain bouncing off my van. What exactly made a good Witch Hunter? The last one I killed came back to life. But this one wouldn't. I'm not suffering because she decided to curse my mate.

*Do you see what I see?" I ask as I climb up on top of the van, trying to get a better view.

In the distance, up the cliff, I see what looks like the pointed roofs of a castle.
