Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Chapter 117 I Won’t Fight to Keep a Male

Ann stared blankly at the open door in front of her.

She had already tried to break free with Maeve’s help, but Narcissa had sauntered to the doorway and sniggered as she strained against the bonds helplessly. Eventually, Ann had given up and Narcissa returned to whichever room she had appeared from.

It was quite clear that even with their combined strength, there was no way that she was going to be able to get out of things this way.

The hope she had felt at the prospect of Adam figuring out where she was had all but disappeared. Perhaps Narcissa was right about the male shifters… particularly wolves. After all, her father had betrayed her mother, Brad had betrayed her, and now Adam…

‘Don’t you f*uc*king dare start thinking like this Ann. What happened to the confidence you had only a few days ago?’ Maeve snarled angrily inside of her.

Her initial disbelief and misery had soon disappeared and had yet again been replaced by the fierce, uncompromising Alpha female that took no prisoners. ‘I thought I had found somewhere that I could be happy, yet all it has led to is betrayal.’ Ann replied softly.

‘So another man stuck his d*ic*k inside your fake sister. So what? Do you think you need a man to complete you? To give you some sense of worth?’

‘No , it’s not that… I really fell for him, Maeve… and…’

‘Oh cry me a river, Ann… your feelings are entirely irrelevant. You fell for a man that you signed a contract with. You agreed to be his Luna and his partner. You didn’t agree beyond that even with your fake mating mark.’ She answered calmly before sighing and softening her tone.

‘Look, I know it hurts Ann, but we don’t need a man to complete us. He may feel like home, but he is not, not truly. WE are all we need. WE are not the same as the other female’s, Ann. I refuse to roll over and beg for affection or attention from an Alpha. If he wants me then he will chase me, and if he stops then I will let go. I will not fight to keep a male, Ann, I know that we are worth more.’ 3
