Alpha Nocturne"s Contracted Mate

“I can’t believe you agreed to bringing her with us.” Baldur snapped testily inside Adam’s head.

“It’s not like either her or Maeve would take no for an answer,” Adam snapped back as he readjusted his grip on Ann’s legs and shifted her position on his back.

“You’re an Alpha, Adam… if you can’t control your mate…” Baldur snorted derisively.

“She’s the Alpha Queen for a reason.” Adam replied with a sigh, “If you’re that salty about it, how about we shift and you can have it out with Maeve, hmm? See how she likes you ordering her around.”

Baldur whined almost instantly and Adam could see his tail tucked between his legs reflexively. “Yeah, that’s what I thought.” Adam snorted as Baldur skulked to the corner of his mind and curled up sullenly on the corner.

“Everything okay?” Ann asked softly as she tightened her arms around Adam’s neck.

“Baldur is pissed that I brought you with us.” Adam grunted.

“I told you I can walk,” Ann scowled.

“Yeah, but for how long? You still haven’t fully recovered and besides, that’s not the issue here.” he replied sternly, “Just for the record I’m not happy about you being out of bed either.”

“Right, because leaving her completely vulnerable in her room while Jasper is on the prowl is a smart idea.” Felix interrupted with a snort, “We’ve seen what happened to Aoife, and that was what he had in store for Ann, so with all due respect Consort Adam, I’m going to take your Alpha Queen’s side in this. She’s safest with us.”

Adam and Baldur rumbled unhappily.
