Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 194 Are You Ignoring Me?
Allen had spent the morning fielding phone calls with Adam and ensuring that the omegas had everything ready for when Lexi and her father arrived. The conversation with Adam had been a difficult one to say the least. Having to admit that he had indeed been acting like a righteous prick instead of claiming his mate as he should have, was one of the hardest things that he had ever had to do. The constant arguing with his wolf on a daily basis had been more than draining. But Allen knew, as soon as he saw Lexi engrossed in conversation with another man, and loving every second of it, he had to claim her as his. Admittedly, he had lost his cool with that cocky little twat Greyson, but he deserved that… and it felt damn good landing that punch on his arrogant little face. Allen snorted to himself at the memory and the corners of his lips curved upward into a smirk, but it faded just as quickly when he remembered the way that Lexi had pushed away from him, and ran straight to hi
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 195 You're Both Terrible Liars
Lord Brarthroroz refused any assistance with their baggage from the omegas and instead insisted on carrying it themselves as Allen led them up the stairs and through the corridors to the comfortable guest quarters that were reserved for important guests. Allen was positive that Lexi had completely misunderstood his lack of composure when they first appeared and he actually missed her over-familiarity now that she had closed herself off from him. He would give anything to have her gripping hold of his arm and teasing him mercilessly, instead of trailing behind him with that cold, emotionless stare that she had fixed on his back at the minute. "Is everything okay, Beta Allen? You seem as distracted as my daughter has been. Is there something going on between you two that I should know about?" "No!" Allen and Lexi both replied hastily at the same time, with matching guilty expressions plastered on their faces. Lord Brarthroroz chuckled. "You're both terrible liars… but I won
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 196 Two Supposed Mates
Lexi didn't even know why she was crying or how long she had been crying for. All she did know was that she was furious with herself for letting a prick like Allen get under her skin so easily. There was no way that he was her mate, was there? Her father had said that the bonding between daemons and their mates was eternal. You only got one in your lifetime and quite honestly, the thought of being bonded to Allen for the rest of her life… the mere thought of it was driving her slowly insane. She was so confused about her feelings for him. How was it possible to want to fuck someone to an inch of their life…but also want to murder them with everything you had in you? Wasn't that the sort of toxic relationship that she had spent her life trying to avoid? Then why did she feel so empty without him near? She groaned loudly and turned onto her back on the luxurious bed, casting her eyes around the room for the first time she had arrived there. It wasn't bad at all. The furnish
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 197 A Big Girl
Allen could feel his wolf howl in despair the longer she spoke. She had a connection with Greyson as well? 'No! I won't share her! She is OUR mate! This is your fault!' Orvar raged inside him as Allen tried desperately to block him out so that he could organize his own thoughts. He hadn't even considered that she would actually take both of them as mates, but if she couldn't decide, and didn't want to reject either of them… Allen shook his head slowly. "Would you consider rejecting one of us?" He asked tentatively as Lexi stared at him aghast. "And willingly cause that level of pain to the ones who are supposed to be made just for me? Are you insane? I've seen what it does to you wolves. How could you even ask me to reject Greyson?" "I never asked for you to reject Greyson," Allen said quietly. "I'm fully aware that you could choose to reject me as well if you only wanted one mate. Only you can make that decision Lexi and quite honestly, after the way I've treated you,
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 198 Why Me?
Allen escorted Lexi and her father to the patio area just at the back of the dining room after dinner was finished so that they could relax a little. He apologized profusely as he excused himself, explaining that he had to make a few phone calls but would be back soon. "He rarely seems to have any time for himself." Lord Brarthroroz observed dryly, as Lexi snorted in response. "Duty first, always..." she said bitterly as she glanced around the area. It hadn't changed much since she was here only a few weeks ago. The Omega's had set up the area nicely with fairy lights intertwined with the honeysuckle that spiraled up the posts of the wood pergola, and across the latticed roof. The lanterns that hung from the ceiling would definitely provide a nice ambiance after sunset, but that was still hours away. An Omega hurried out from the hall and placed a tray holding a colossal jug of fresh sangria and three glassed on the table in front of them and grinned broadly at them. "If yo
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 199 Accept Or Not
Allen had stood at the doorway not wanting to intrude on the conversation but his heart ached for the fact that he couldn't soothe Lexi's sadness and conflicting emotions. He understood completely though. She was having the same feelings of doubt and disbelief that he had shared initially, but the difference was, she hadn't rejected them outright and instead, listened carefully to her father's advice. In hindsight, he should have spoken to someone about his misgivings when he realized that Lexi was his mate. Adam had made it clear that he would have been happy to talk to him about this when they discussed the whole situation in depth, but he had been so busy with Ann and the problems that they had been facing that he hadn't wanted to add to the burden they faced. He had been so lost in thought he hadn't noticed Lexi glance across and spot him in the doorway. "Do you want to join us Beta boy? Or are you gonna stand there eavesdropping?" She smirked, her expression changing i
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 200 More Haste Less Speed
As soon as Allen felt Lexi's resistance disappear he felt a peace that he hadn't felt in a long time. He wanted her as close to him as possible, his skin against hers. He wanted to trace every curve of her body with his lips and hear her moan in pleasure, no, scream his name in ecstasy. The mere thought of her underneath him was driving him crazy and his erection was pressing uncomfortably against his zipper. He needed to readjust, but he didn't want to let her go. He couldn't bear the thought of her leaving him alone again. Without thinking twice he moved quickly, gathering her in his arms and holding her tightly to his chest as she flung her arms around his neck, pulling him closer to her as if her very life depended on it. It was difficult to make his way through the dining room and up the stairs with Lexi's exuberant actions in his arms, but after a few close calls and a stumble over the top step, he finally made it to his room. He had heard the whispers and giggles as
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 201 Little Royal Pups
Neither one of them ventured out of the room for the rest of the day, both of them enjoying the pleasure of each other's company in every way that they could think of. Lexi had lost count of the number of times that she had found herself begging Allen for more, and he happily indulged her every whim. The omega's had been generous in providing for their needs while they had been holed up in the bedroom, knocking briefly on the door once before leaving them to it, letting them know that there was a meal left outside of the door for them once they came up for air. Lexi was quietly impressed at how the pack seemed to run as a well-oiled machine, with the lower ranking members excited to see their leaders happy, without even the barest hint of jealousy from anyone… at least in Lexi's case anyway. She was almost disappointed in a way. She hadn't been able to stick up for Ann when she had a tough time here initially thanks to Narcissa's coven's meddling, and she had secretly hoped

As their convoy of cars and moving vans rolled up the driveway, Ann's stomach twisted uncomfortably as her anxiety set in. Regardless of what her babies were doing to her insides, the effects that her heightened emotions were having on her far eclipsed any discomfort that her pups were causing. She took a deep breath as she tried to calm the anxiety that knotted her insides and made her heart ache painfully. As far as she knew, her father was still living within the palace and she still wasn't sure that she could forgive him for everything that she had been put through because of his choices. In the worst-case scenario, she could always extend the palace to encompass two main living areas so that she wouldn't have to deal with tolerating his presence. She didn't even want to think about how she would explain to her children that they couldn't ever meet the incredible woman that her mother was because her father had an affair, broke the mating bond, and allowed his mistress and

"Right, I think that's the last of them," Adam grinned as he jogged through the huge doors of the Enclave's entrance hall to where Ann was pacing restlessly and Bartholomew was watching with mild amusement. "Finally," Ann sighed as she rubbed her belly with a grimace, "At this point, all I want to do is get my home back to what it used to be." Adam leaned forward and planted a kiss on Ann's forehead. "Are they making things difficult for you?" He asked gently, rubbing her back. Ann reached for his hand with a scowl and placed it palm down on top of her belly and grimaced as another flurry of movement rippled under her skin and Adam blinked in surprise. "Are they fighting in there?!" He asked in shock. "With two stubborn Alpha's for parents, I wouldn't put it past them." Bartholomew chuckled as he made his way over to them, smiling kindly. Ann lifted her gaze and her face softened as she looked at the kindly face of the old man that had been there for them through so muc
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 300 We'll Find Him
When Coral had returned with the Omega that worked as a nanny to the nobles, the baby boy was handed over to her and she waddled off happily, cooing at the baby in her arms as it gurgled happily back up at her. Coral began to work through updating the schedule for Ann as she dictated, adding additional notes that she shared with Allen's device. He would see to their schedule tomorrow as he had several days worth of reports to hear from Adam as to what had happened within the businesses and the Dark Moon Pack while he was away. Lexi made her way back to her room with both Allen and Greyson following behind her. She paused outside her door and turned to them both with a smile. "Sorry to disappoint boys, but I don't feel like getting frisky right now. Quite honestly, I just want to soak all of this crap off me." They nodded at her as she looked at them thoughtfully. "We really should sit down and have a discussion about how this is going to work between us all, you know." she
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 299 Kindred Spirits
"Well, I certainly wasn't expecting that." Ann said a little breathlessly as she looked between Lexi, Allen and Greyson. Adam shared the same concerned expression as she did at the revelations that Eromaug would clearly stop at nothing to get his hands on Lexi. "You're absolutely sure that your father is willing to ally himself with us?" Ann asked as the baby in her arms began to stir and protest at the noise and unfamiliar surroundings it had found itself in. Lexi snorted loudly. "Of course he is. How could he not when his daughter is your right hand woman?" She winked. "We should put it to the council first." Adam said somberly as Lexi groaned loudly. "I'm sure they'll be thrilled at the opportunity," She muttered sarcastically as Ann laughed. "I think we should get hold of Bartholomew so that he can help us find a way to ‘tell' the council of our alliance, rather than ask for their permission." Ann mused thoughtfully, "He's pretty knowledgeable about who supports us,
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 298 Save the Baby
Ann and Adam stood on the front steps of the Enclave, eagerly waiting for the return of both of their Beta's. Adam chuckled as Ann fidgeted with her hands and struggled to stand still, her gaze fixed on the curve of the driveway. "They'll be here soon, don't worry." He soothed, wrapping his arm around her as she nibbled on her bottom lip. "What if something happened though?" She worried as she rubbed her little bump in an act of self soothing. Adam's eyes glazed over slightly as he linked with Allen and then grinned down at his anxious wife. "Allen said stop worrying, it's not good for the baby. They'll be here in seconds." "But…" As promised, the front end of the transport pulled around the corner of the driveway and Ann let out a sigh of relief. "See, my Queen? Nothing to worry about." Adam chuckled as he watched them pull to a stop in front of them. As soon as the door opened and Lexi's head emerged, Ann broke away from Adam and bolted down the steps towards her.
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 297 Because of His Obsession
Lexi knew that she was still conscious, but the pressure that engulfed her head, and the rigidity of her body teamed with the almost distant voices of protest from Allen and Greyson let her know that she had no control over what was happening right now. The initial black curtain that had descended was suddenly filled with hundreds upon hundreds of memories from her childhood, all played out in glorious technicolor and accompanied by sounds and smells that made her heart ache with familiarity and her breath catch in her chest. There was no way that she could catch each and every memory at once, but she could see it clearly. The bond that both she and Eromaug had shared at an early stage was filled with love and an intensity that she had known only with Allen and Greyson. By the time the images had begun to fade in her mind's eye and her vision returned, she was overwhelmed with emotions. As she sat there trembling, clasping her hands together tightly so that she wouldn't cry wit
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 296 Things Changed
Lord Brarthroroz guided Lexi over to one of the chairs around the table and gestured towards the flap of the tent. "Make sure no one enters for the time being, Steve." He said with an air of resignation to his voice as he took a seat next to his daughter. Steve nodded expressionlessly as he moved to the open flap, released the material to close it and ducked through to stand outside. "You two should sit as well," Lord Brathroroz advised as he gestured to the seats across from Lexi, "This isn't easy for me to talk about." He continued with a grunt. Greyson and Allen moved to comply and took their seats next to each other, both of them focused on Lexi. Lord Brarthroroz sighed as he turned back to his daughter and cupped her face fondly. "Before I start, I want you to understand that before your mother and I had you, neither of us realized just how deeply we could love and the desire to protect you from harm eclipsed everything else in our lives completely." He said gently a
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 295 You Know That I Love You
It hadn't taken their force long to clear the halls and clean up the bodies that were left behind. The losses had been minimal on their part and considering the forces that they had thought they would be up against, their plans had meant that they had been far better equipped than the coven itself. The Coven had left very few prisoners alive, and the ones that were still breathing were in pretty bad shape. Lexi and the other healers and medics had done what they could but there was no growing back limbs…no matter how proficient of a shifter you were. Lord Brarthroroz had stationed huge numbers of his daemons within the winding passageways and caverns that the coven had previously inhabited and returned to the surface with his portalmancer Steve at his side. He strode angrily across the makeshift camp to the command tent and paused at the entrance, glancing across at the medical tent where Lexi had been working. Currently, she was cleaning her hands off as her mates watched
Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate CHAPTER 294 You Disgust Me
She stood and with one last look at the lifeless body below her, turned her attention to the chaos at the other side of the room. Narcissa had no problems keeping the attacks of the wolves at bay and Lexi could feel the emotions of the past few minutes bubbling wildly inside of her as she stormed towards her, her eyes blazing furiously. Her father was still making little headway against Eromaug, but she wasn't concerned about his survival, he was more than capable of taking care of himself against his bastard of a brother. Narcissa on the other hand…she had a lot to fucking answer for. Lexi strode through the fighters battling the twisted Daemons that had emerged from the shadows, throwing her magick lazily towards the monstrosities as she passed, a sneer curling at her lips as the shifters watched her in terrified awe. It wasn't long until Narcissa noticed her approach and her face split into a sneer that matched Lexi's as she swept her arm in front of her, knocking the ma
