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

click-clacking away from the office and disappearing down the corridor. Her pouty lips

Ann laughed suddenly, an ironic sound that seemed harsh in the quiet of her office,

wrapped around your little finger, but he was supposed to be mine!” Ada hissed

“Now that wasn’t very smart, was it? Don’t you think you’re being a little greedy? You

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…
