Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate Chapter 205
Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell
Chapter 205 She’s Flirting
“I would ask how the horny couple are, but I don’t think I want to know the details really.” Lexi grimaced
as she linked her arm through Bartholomew’s and they made their way inside.
Bartholomew chuckled and patted her hand.
“They’re holed up in the Royal Quarters so I doubt you’ll see too much of them over the next few days.
Whilst Ann is in heat, the doors to their wing are sealed and their guards are posted outside the
entrance to the wing rather than their bedroom, for reasons that I’m sure you’ll understand”
Lexi smirked as she snorted.
“Well, I suppose listening to a free s*x show to get the juices flowing isn’t everyone’s idea of a good
time..
“Lexi!” the sound of two voices shouting out at the same time echoed in the corridor around them. She
laughed at both the low warning in her father’s tone, and the slightly panicked disapproval from Allen
as they both looked at her in admonishment.
“What?” She shrugged nonchntly, “I’m not wrong. You’re both acting as if I implied in some way that
it was my type of thing…” she continued with a smirk as she turned to look over her shoulder and eyed
Allen with a wicked glint in her eye.
“You know, if that’s what you’re into..” she teased as she wriggled her eyebrows suggestively in Allen’s
direction. The look of horror on his face as he nced frantically at her father and spluttered in
objection at her teasing waspletely worth every second of just how irate he would be with herter.
Perhaps having a fated mate wasn’t so bad after all, Lexi thought smugly to herself as Bartholomew
cleared his throat awkwardly.
“Well, I’m not sure this is how I anticipated the conversation going, but we’ll steer away from that now if
you don’t mind, Lexi, dear,” Bartholomew interjected before she escted the situation further. “We
certainly have a lot to catch up on before we proceed with gaining Lord Brarthroroz’s input on the
creature sequestered away in the bowels of the Enve.”
“Am I to expect the usual political intrigue and shameless ploys to snatch power from those who hold it
rightfully?” Lord Brarthroroz rumbled with a tinge of sarcasm in his tone.
“You are as astute as I remember, my Lord. Nothing has changed much since yourst visit.”
Bartholomew replied with a wry grin.
“Does it ever really change when ites to the monarchy and their advisors?” Lord Brarthroroz
snorted as he exchanged a knowing look with Bartholomew.
“Unfortunately not, my lord.” Bartholomew sighed and continued, “But let us not talk about this in the
corridors. The walls have ears and it is best that we are discreet in most subjects when we walk openly
like this. At least there is a measure of privacy in my office.”

After walking in silence for what seemed like the longest time and ascending the sweeping staircase
part way, they pulled to a stop in front of a set of ornate doors. Bartholomew turned to them with a
smile and gestured towards the doors.
“These are the assigned quarters for you all. You may take your pick of rooms in there as this wing is
currently vacant and usually reserved for visiting diplomats. It seemed only appropriate that you be
assigned the finest quarters that were avable as you are, technically speaking, a visiting ruler, and
you are indeed assisting with diplomatic rtions.” Bartholomew beamed.
“After you are all refreshed and settled, do feel free to join me in my office and I will exin the
predicament we currently find ourselves in. There will be guards posted outside this door shortly, and
an omega will wait outside to escort you there.”
Allen nodded as Lexi slipped her arm from Bartholomew’s and pushed open the door without
hesitation, waving goodbye to Bartholomew and making herself at home instantly as she began
opening every door along the hallway and inspecting the rooms within. Allen thanked Bartholomew
before he followed Lexi inside, sighing internally and chuckling quietly at Orvar gushing about Lexi’s
sounds of contentment and excitement as she gleefully explored the rooms beyond.
One thing was for certain, Lexi was certainly going to keep him on his toes with her antics, and he had
a feeling that as much as he would be ufortable at first, eventually, he would learn to ept it.
He walked slowly towards her, his steps deliberate as he watched her fling open yet another door and
squeal in delight before rushing inside, disappearing momentarily before her head re-emerged around
theer of the doorway as she grinned widely at him. “Found it!” She announced happily as Allen’s
face split into a smile that mirrored her own.
Seeing her so happy and excited over such a little thing made his heart feel as though it was about to
burst, and having Orvar prancing around like a lunatic inside of him was not doing anything to subdue
the unfamiliar feeling inside him.
He wanted to go back in time and beat some sense into himself for fighting against his attraction to her
for so long, knowing full well that he had been responsible for missing out on potentially hundreds of
little moments like this, purely because of his own prejudice and fears.
“Oi! Beta boy!” Lexi’s impatient voice came drifting down the corridor. “Did you hit your head? Why are
you looking all spacey like that? Do I need to have youmitted somewhere? Or did I finally manage
to make you lose your mind?” She teased mercilessly.
Allen cleared his throat awkwardly and could feel his ears heat up a little as he realized she had caught
him grinning at her like a fool. “No reason.” He answered as he closed the distance between them a
little uncertainly.
Would she even want to share a room with him? Was it too soon? Would he have more work to do in
winning her affection? His doubts swam in his head as he approached her but Lexi’s eyes shone with a
mischievous light as her arm appeared in the corridor, and she crooked a finger, beckoning him
towards her with a teasing grin.
“Come and tell me what you think of our room.” She smirked as she disappeared inside as soon as she
had finished speaking. Alien’s heart rate began to pick up speed.
‘She’s flirting! She’s flirting Allen! Get in there!’ Orvar squealed excitedly. ‘Shut up Orvar… you’re
making me nervous…’ Allen snapped back, willing his heart to slow down. Thest thing he wanted to
be was a hot sweaty mess when trying to show LExi that he was the perfect match for her. ‘Well, you’re
making me nervous that you’re going to screw this up as well you absolute d’*k! Get in there!’ Orvar
roared in response. Allen swallowed a little nervously as he gingerly stepped through the doorway to
see Lexi standing in front of the enormous bed with a coy look on her face.
“So? What do you think?” she asked in an innocent voice as Allen moved further into the bedroom,
closing the door behind him.
“Well, I certainly didn’t think I’d ever see the day that you asked for my opinion on anything. You being
so independent and all.” Allen answered with a smirk.
‘THAT IS NOT HOW YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO FLIRT BACK ALLEN!’ Orvar roared in anguish inside
him, almost positive that Allen was going to screw this up as well.
Lexi smirked as she lowered herself onto the bed and leaned backward, looking up at him through her
eyshes with a heated gaze. “I mean… I could find out for myself and make my own decision as to
just how suitable this bed is for me… but it’s always more fun with someone else … don’t you think?”
She teased as she slowly moved backward and lifted her legs to the edge of the bed.
Allen’s nerves seemed to disappear instantly as his eyes darkened, and as he leaped towards the bed
Lexi squealed in delight as Allen seemed intent on giving her exactly what she wanted.
