Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Chapter 191 I’d Rather Avoid Allen

The first meeting of the day had run over schedule by about an hour, and as the

Elders filed out of the room in silence, Adam reached for Ann’s hand and gave it a

squeeze, before he brought it to his lips, placing a soft kiss on her skin.

“You were magnificent, my Queen.” He murmured as Ann giggled like a teenager at

the intimate moment between them.

“I just hope they finally got the message,” she sighed, her disappointment still evident

as they stood and began to make their way toward the next scheduled meeting.

She was satisfied with the agreed-upon actions that the Elders had committed to and

had ordered the measures discussed to be implemented immediately. At least now,

she had a solid plan that she could relay to Alpha Felix so that their Kingdom didn’t

come across as incompetent.

Ann’s phone rang seconds before Adam’s did, and seeing Lexi on her caller display

and Allen on Adam’s, they quickly took a detour to find a smaller side room where they

could talk in private.

“Hey, Queenie, what’s cooking?” Lexi sang brightly from the other end of the phone as

her father’s deep chuckle resonated from somewhere in the background.

“Well, where do I even start?” Ann groaned as she quickly filled her in on the events

that had occurred since she left them.

Lexi whistled lowly.

“What the actual f**k? I leave you alone for a little while and utter chaos breaks

loose… every damn time. Do I need to make myself a permanent fixture over there?”
