Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate Chapter 58


    Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell


    Chapter 58 Fate Was Indeed Cruel


    Adam growled loudly as he pounded into her harder and allowed her legs to fall to his waist and as she


    came undone around him and he released inside of her, he leaned forward, his fangs elongating as he


    sank his teeth into the soft flesh of her neck.


    Ann gripped hold of him greedily as she too did the same and almost instantly, their vision seemed to


    explode in bright lights.


    Theypped tenderly at each of the new marks andy panting above each other for a while.


    Ann couldn’t help but feel an overwhelming sadness that this wasn’t a reality… that Adam wasn’t her


    true mate. Maybe… just maybe… in another life… they would find each other and be happy.


    But it wouldn’t be this one… this life was too cruel beyond words…


    Unbeknownst to Ann, Adam felt exactly the same. Ann was perfect in his eyes and was everything that


    he had imagined that his true mate and Luna would be. But fate was indeed cruel.


    He stroked her cheek softly as he gazed at her flushed face. She was beautiful and everything in him


    wanted to tell her those all-important three words that could change everything.


    But, he didn’t.


    She had been hurt so badly before and had already said that she didn’t want to get her hopes up in this


    rtionship with him. The thought of them ever being apart made him feel irrationally angry and he


    leaned forward to kiss her lips, in an attempt to appease the anger in his heart.


    Ann smiled softly and reached up to run her hands through his hair tenderly.


    “Are you okay?” She asked with a slight frown, searching his eyes for an answer that he couldn’t give


    her.


    He smiled in response but said nothing, and reluctantly rolled off her, as she gasped at the loss of him


    from inside of her.


    With a heavy heart, Adam reached for the two sses of liquid at the side of the bed and narrowed his


    eyes distastefully at them.


    “I guess this is the part where we drink…” Ann said with a nervousugh.


    Adam nodded slowly at her and passed her the ss. “At the same time then?” She asked with a slight


    tremble in her voice.


    It took everything that Adam had in him, not to throw the sses against the wall and flee from this


    ce, with Ann in his arms. But there really was no other alternative.


    There was just too much at stake.

    They brought their sses together in a mock toast and smiled wryly at each other as they tipped the


    liquid into their mouths.


    Thest thing Adam saw was the terrifying sight of Ann slumping lifelessly to the bed, and the utter


    feeling of helplessness and panic that washed over him seconds before he too s*umbed to the


    darkness.


    As soon as Adam’s eyes opened, he jolted awake and sat bolt upright in bed, looking around himself


    frantically as the ghost of the panic that he felt before he fell asleep a*s*saulted him violently.


    He looked across to his side and frowned as he realized that he was back in his own bedroom, and


    Ann was fast asleep still beside him. He reached out and moved the errant strands of hair away from


    her face as he watched the soft movement of her chest under the duvet.


    “N’aaw how sweet. You really do care for her, don’t you, wolf boy?” An amused voice came from the


    other side of the room.


    Adam whipped his head around quickly and his body tensed instantly ready to attack whoever had


    dared to intrude into his personal space without an invite, but he was met with the sound of a chuckle.


    “Rx furball, I just wanted to make sure that you both woke up okay,” Lexi said as she appeared out


    of the shadows that lined the far side of his room.


    Adam heaved a sigh of relief as he narrowed his eyes dangerously in her direction, wary of her intent.


    “Hmm. Papa did say that I shouldn’t tease you too much when you woke up in case you were a little


    grumpy, the sedative sometimes has the nasty side effect of making people hyper aggressive… but I


    figured that was no different from normal Alpha’s so…” She trailed off with a shrug as she examined


    her nails casually.


    Adam remained silent. His head was still a little foggy and it felt like he had spent the previous night


    drinking. Even if he had wanted to reply, it most likely wouldn’t have been too impressive of a response.


    Lexi sighed as she approached the edge of the bed and sat down, staring fondly at Ann’s sleeping


    form.


    “You need to look out for this one, wolfy. She’s more important to me than I can put into words,” She


    said softly with a sigh, a rare look of affection crossing her features before she quickly schooled her


    face back into an expression of neutrality and fixed Adam with a serious stare.


    “The mark will need to be redone from time to time. It’s not a permanent solution, as we mentioned


    previously. As soon as it starts looking a little iffy, then have Ann call me okay?”


    Adam nodded slowly.


    “Is there anything we should look out for?”


    Lexi appeared thoughtful for a minute as her eyes shed in the darkness,


    “Well, I would think it will start to look a little angry around the edges. At the minute, you can get away


    with it, because it’s fresh, but after the mark settles into the usual silvery white scar, then any redness


    should be immediately obvious.”


    “How long do you think until we need to be worried?”


    Lexi snorted.
