Semua Bab Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate: Bab 51 - Bab 60

　　As the haze cleared around the two figures in front of them, Lexi squealed and ran forward, pulling the towering figure into a hug as the man beside him looked on with an impassive expression on his face.　　"Papa! It feels like it's been forever since I saw you properly!" Lexi squealed as the easily eight-foot-tall figure bent slightly and wrapped his arms around her warmly.　　"It's good to see you, little one." The man rumbled as Lexi stepped backward and turned to grin at Ann and Adam.　　"Guys, this is Papa, Papa, this is Adam and Ann." Lexi beamed excitedly.　　Lexi's father cut a truly imposing figure, broad-shouldered, bulging muscles as far as the eye could see, and an expression that threatened an untimely death as he stared impassively towards Adam and Ann.　　"Ann, I have heard a lot about you over the years and I would like to thank you for providing Lexi with the stability that I could not give her. My realm would simply not have been safe for a child of mixed blood," Lexi's

　　"Adam, please. It's not going to go well if you're disrespectful in his home. Imagine how you would react if someone growled at you in your own home. You would be absolutely furious! You were very nearly going to put an end to a longstanding member of your Elder Council for daring to question you. Be reasonable. Please." Ann pleaded softly as she placed a hand on his arm.　　He seemed to instantly relax and took a moment to school his emotions properly. Ann was right. This could be the first step to securing better relations with at least this realm of Daemons. Who knew what benefits that it might bring his Pack? He couldn't afford to risk ruining this because of his temper.　　"I'm sorry, Lord Brarthroroz, I'm still a little on edge," Adam said finally with a half bow towards where the Daemon Lord stood.　　Lord Brarthroroz waved his hand dismissively and shrugged.　　"It's fine. If it wasn't I would have reacted, but your apology is appreciated non the less. Now, the door to your left

　　"Not actively... he's tried... but..." Ann tried to explain as she glanced across at Lexi in annoyance and noticed a strange expression on her face as she looked thoughtfully at Adam.　　Lord Brarthroroz didn't let the conversation go further though as he cleared his throat loudly and spoke.　　"So a large amount of concealment is going on then, around both Alpha Nocturne and yourself it seems. I must say, this is all very curious. I don't know of any active plots among the renegades that are going on in your realm, and the lords are not willing to move against your realm again."　　"Do you think we can help them with this too, Papa?" Lexi asked suddenly.　　"It will require some reconnaissance on my end. I want to know exactly who I'm dealing with. It may be Witches but this has the taint of daemons behind it. There is clearly something more going on here." Lord Brarthroroz frowned.　　"Can't we just kill the bitches and get on with it?!" Lexi exclaimed suddenly, hitting the side of the

　　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.　　They lapped tenderly at each of the new marks and lay 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 beau

　　"Stop looking at my Luna." Adam snarled angrily as Allen stared at him with disbelief.　　He twisted suddenly and broke free of Adam's grip before he darted a short distance away from him and stood looking between the two of them.　　"Since when did you get so possessive?" He asked, eyeing him warily.　　Adam responded with a snarl as Allen's eyes drifted to the obvious mark on his neck and he pointed excitedly, with his eyes wide open in stunned disbelief.　　"When... What… Wait! You're marked! What?! Are you..?! No…" He stuttered as a myriad of emotions and questions fluttered across his face.　　Ann chuckled and made her way over to Adam with the sheet still wrapped tightly around her. Adam growled warningly and pulled her into his side and wrapped his arm around her as he scowled at Allen dangerously. 　　Ann rubbed her fingers backward and forwards gently over the back of his hand, hoping that he would be calmed down a little by the sensation. She half wished that by some miracle, tho
