Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Despite his best efforts, Ann did not succumb to Adam’s less-than-subtle efforts to force her into relaxation for the rest of the day.

She agreed to a compromise and didn’t leave the room until lunchtime, still concerned that her absence had put additional strain on Lexi and Allen that they didn’t deserve

They had already been in the Enclave a full day without any input from her, let alone a welcome, and she felt awful.

“Ann, slow down, they aren’t going anywhere.” Adam chastised gently as they swept through the hallways. “I know, I just want to make sure that they know they have my support if needed,” Ann answered absent-mindedly as she poked her head through the c***k in the doorway of yet another room that lay at the side of the corridor but found no sign of Lexi or Allen within.

“Besides, I need to talk with Lexi. I don’t think she fully understands what it means to have Allen as a mate for her position in our society.” She muttered as she sighed impatiently and closed the door, resuming her search with gusto as she strode forward eagerly.

“Don’t you have any idea where they’ll be?” she asked over her shoulder as Adam’s shoulders slumped in defeat slightly and he increased his pace a little in order to catch up with her and walk at her side.

In seconds, Ann had launched herself across the remaining distance and pounced on Lexi’s back, wrapping her arms around her tightly as a surprised squeal left her lips. “HOLY f****g S*HITB*ALLS, ANN.
