Alpha Nocurne's Contracted Mate

Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Chapter 48 The Elders

“To start with I’m wondering why my council of Elders has time to sit around listening to idle gossip and the bullsh*t that the tabloids spew.” He sneered as a look of uncertainty crossed Tomas’s face.

“Secondly, I’m wondering who the f*uc*k has the audacity to question my mate bond with the woman that they bound to me and bound to the pack as their Luna. Just who the f*uc*k do you think you are Tomas?” Adam growled menacingly as he advanced toward him.

Adam allowed his wolf to surge forwards and sit side by side in his vision and the color drained from Tomas’s face as the rest of the Elders backed away hurriedly.

Without wasting a second Adam snarled furiously and his arm snapped out in front of him, his fingers taking hold of Tomas’s neck and propelling him backward until his back connected with the wall.

“Have I not always done things by the book, Tomas?” “Yes, Alpha!” He squeaked.

“Did I not wait for the appearance of my Luna before I took a woman to bed?” Adam snarled furiously. “Yes, Alpha!”

“Then why the f*uc*k would I lie about this?” He questioned dangerously as Tomas struggled against his vicelike grip.

With a snarl of rage, he picked Tomas up and threw him back towards the group of Elders huddled together in fear.

“If you ever Luna again, I’ll do more than threaten you, do you understand?”

The majority of the Elders nodded furiously and apologized profusely whilst throwing furious glares toward Tomas who was struggling to get up from the position that he had landed in.

With a final furious glare, Adam turned to make his way to his room, where Ann waited for him, but a trembling voice from behind him stopped him in his tracks.
