Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Chapter 72 Nothing But A Trap

Almost instantly Ada’s face seemed to darken at the sound of her mother’s footsteps

know how Alpha’s are, Ada. They don’t share, and very rarely do they accept the

spawn of their partner if it isn’t theirs by blood. Especially in your circ*umstances…
