Alpha Nocturne"s Contracted Mate

CHAPTER 12 The Rejection

Brad growled lowly as he turned his head slowly and looked around nervously, noticing a fair few pairs of narrowed eyes directed at him. He took a deep breath and rolled his shoulders slightly, forcing himself to relax as he ran his hand through his hair.

The fury still smoldered in his eyes but at least his aggression was under control.

“Listen, about Ada…” He ground out but Lexi was having none of it and lifted her hand to silence him.

“I don’t give a fuck about your excuses and I’m sure Ann doesn’t care to hear them either.” she hissed.

“Ann, please… just hear me out!” He pleaded as he twisted to the side to try and catch Ann’s eye.

‘I think we should listen to what he has to say.” Maeve interjected contemplatively.

‘Seriously? You want to hear him out?’ Ann retorted incredulously.

‘Yes. Then I can decide how much pain I want to put him through when I forcibly castrate both him and his cowardly wolf.’ she snarled, her fangs bared.

Ann sighed heavily and stood, placing a hand on Lexi’s shoulder.

“It’s okay, Lexi. Maeve wants to hear what he has to say.” Ann said calmly.

Lexi snorted in disgust and with a final depreciating sweep of her eyes over Brad, she moved to the side and sat down heavily in her

chair, keeping her gaze fixated on the couple before her.

Brad seemed to relax instantly, his shoulders sagging in relief as he stared intensely into Ann’s eyes.
