Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Chapter 108 Disappointed in the Alpha

Adam considered Lexi’s words carefully. She was right, of course, and she had already done a thorough job of searching the places that Ann should have been, had she genuinely taken whoever had appeared in front of her car to the hospital.

With no trace of Ann on any of the security footage from the hospitals they had visited, or in the parking lots, Adam had pulled in a favor from a contact within the traffic administration system.

Allen was on his way over to review the security footage as he sat here with Lexi discussing their next move. He wanted to be out looking for her but if she managed to escape and return home, he didn’t want anyone else to be the first face that she saw.

His wolf growled possessively at the mere thought and the sound rumbled from his chest unwillingly.

Lexi flicked a sly glance toward him and a small smirk played at the corners of her mouth.

“Are you okay there loverboy?”

Adam nodded curtly at her, a little embarra*s*sed at the familiarity that she kept addressing him with, but trying not to offend her.

“Yes, sorry about that. I’m not entirely sure why, but my wolf seems to have shaken loose from whatever bound him inside of me just recently.” Adam shrugged apologetically. “His reactions can be a little, unpredictable…” Adam continued, not wanting to say that his wolf bordered dangerously on feral by all accounts.

“Interesting,” Lexi smirked with a glint in her eye.

“I’m glad you find it all so fascinating…” Adam growled back sarcastically.
