Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Chapter 97 Because of You

Both Adam and Ann were f0rced to cover their eyes as soon as they stepped out into

the glaring sunlight that greeted them when they exited the long winding tunnels of

dull light that the Elders called their home.

Once their eyes had adjusted to the sudden intrusion of light, Adam turned to grin

widely at her as he pulled her into his chest.

“I’d say that went quite well, wouldn’t you?” He smirked as he planted a kiss on her

forehead.

Ann chuckled and grinned up at him, masking the emptiness that she felt inside at the

whole ordeal. “It could have been a lot worse, yes.”

“I say we go and celebrate. I’m thinking fancy restaurant, champagne, the whole

his mark on.

Ann grunted in response, willing herself to ignore the shiver that made her weak at the

knees as he pressed against the fake mark.

“I need to message Eva first, and then, we’ll see,” she replied finally, wrapping her

arms around his broad waist and inhaling the deep masculine scent of him.

Why did he always smell so damn good? It was kind of addictive.

Adam sighed as he stepped back and took hold of her hand, pulling her towards the

waiting car.

“Okay, well, in any case, let’s head home. I’d rather not hang around here any longer

than necessary. We can decide there at least.”

As she leaned against his shoulder in the back seat of the car, Ann pulled her phone

out and sent a message to Eva.

They had already discussed the plan multiple times, all she had to do was to give the

word.

“It’s done.”

The message was short, sweet, and to the point. Eva wasn’t stupid, she knew the drill
