Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell
Chapter – 201 Little Royal Pups
Neither one of them ventured out of the room for the rest of the day, both of them enjoying the pleasure of each other’s company in every way that they could think of.
Lexi had lost count of the number of times that she had found herself begging Allen for more, and he happily indulged her every whim.
The omega’s had been generous in providing for their needs while they had been holed up in the bedroom, knocking briefly on the door once before leaving them to it, letting them know that there was a meal left outside of the door for them once they came up for air.
Lexi was quietly impressed at how the pack seemed to run as a well-oiled machine, with the lower ranking members excited to see their leaders happy, without even the barest hint of jealousy from anyone… at least in Lexi’s case anyway.
She was almost disappointed in a way. She hadn’t been able to stick up for Ann when she had a tough time here initially thanks to Narcissa’s coven’s meddling, and she had secretly hoped that they might rear their ugly heads again so that both she and her father could put them in their places.
She supposed it was a good thing though really, not having to worry about being stabbed in the back at every turn… unless you were Ann. Lexi marveled at how calm and collected Ann was in public while she faced the clean-up from her father’s incompetency.
If it had been her in such a high-ranking position, Lexi was sure that she would have just kicked everyone out of their positions, or exiled them for the fun of it They were supposed to protect the vulnerable and the less fortunate in their positions, not stand idly by and watch people suffer as they lived in the lap of luxury.
“Penny for your thoughts?” Allen murmured as he moved a stray strand of hair from across her face. “Who says I’m thinking about anything,” Lexi grinned impishly up at him.
“Your face tells me everything that I need to know. The frown, the pursed lips, the dangerous glint in your eyes that looks suspiciously like you’re planning a brutal murder…” Allen listed off on his fingers in a teasing tone.
Lexi snorted.
“I was just thinking that I wouldn’t want to do Ann’s job even if you paid me.”
“No? Well, I suppose it will eventually be the same for you with your father, won’t it7 When he… steps down from the throne won’t it become yours?”
Lexi looked at him for a long time before she answered. Truthfully she hadn’t really considered this and she certainly had never brought the conversation up with her father. She had already lost her mother at a young age, and she certainly wasn’t ready to confront the possibility of losing her father as well.
“That’s not something we’ve discussed actually, and besides, I’m not sure I want to be in charge of a horde of Daemons and their antics,” Lexi answered truthfully.
“I can just see you as a demon princess, you know,” Allen said as he gazed down at her sincerely.
“With a long flowing gown and sparkly little tiara?” Lexi snorted in amusement, “f”k off Allen. I’m hardly dainty. You’re more likely to see me with a pair of demonic wings and a big stabby sword. I think that’s far more suited to my personality, don’t you?”
“I think a cactus is far more suited to your personality actually,” Allen teased as he rolled off the bed to dodge the slap that Lexi sent his way, “It matches your personality perfectly. Prickly and painful.”
“Oh really? Such a c*oc*ky little bastard now you’ve got your d**k wet aren’t you’” Lexi shot back with a smirk, “And what about your personality, hmm?”
“Ah, but we aren’t talking about me, are we?” He laughed.
“You might not be, but maybe it’s something we should discuss. I mean, if you get any more self-righteous Allen, I’m seriously going to think about persuading Adam to have you committed to a retirement home with all the other old, retired wolves so you can sit around and grumble about how despicable and dreadful things are now.” Lexi teased mercilessly. “Hey! I’m not that old you know…” Allen scowled as she laughed outrageously on the bed.
“No? You could have fooled me Beta boy. Perhaps I’ll treat you to a pair of slippers and a pipe so you can sit in your rocking chair and play chess with them too.” “You’re brutal you know’” Allen grumbled as the sound of his phone vibrating sounded from the bedside table.
“Ah, saved by the phone. Such a pity… I have plenty more where that came from” Lexi giggled as Allen rolled his eyes and grabbed his phone from the side.
As soon as he had read the message from Adam, he sighed and sank down on the edge of the bed, typing out a quick reply.
“Is everything okay?” Lexi asked in a softer voice. She had seen a new, wild side to Allen that she craved with every fiber of her being, but as soon as he switched back into serious work mode, she felt the tinge of disappointment and apprehension in the pit of her stomach.
“Yeah, everything’s fine, don’t worry.”
“Well, your face says otherwise.” Lexi mimicked his tone with the same phrase he had used on her only a few minutes earlier.
Allen chuckled and turned to face her, taking herby surprise and pulling her close to plant a kiss on her lips. “I promise you, it’s nothing to worry about at all Lexi. Ann has gone into heat so she and Adam will be out of action for a few days. We’ll be heading over in the morning to support them however we can.”
“Heat7” Lexi frowned, “So, wait a minute, Ann and Adam are pretty much gonna f”k until it’s out of her system and we have to take on their workload?” Allen roared with laughter, and it took him a few minutes before he was able to recover his senses long enough to answer her properly.
“It’s a little more complicated than that, but essentially yes,” he answered finally, clutching his sides to try and stop the ache from laughing.
“Well, it’s alright for some…” Lexi grumbled. “Chances are you’re going be an Aunty soon,” Allen said with a knowing smile.
“Wait, what? Are you f’”g serious” Lexi replied.
“Deadly serious. Now she’s in heat, it’s her most fertile time. I can guarantee that we are going to have little royal pups running around our feet very soon.” Allen said with the biggest
smile on his face that Lexi had ever seen.
