Chapter 168 Life Has to Go on

Ann made her way back to her bedroom in silence, her mind whirring with all the

thoughts that stemmed from today’s revelations. Necromancy wasn’t something that

Ann was at all familiar with outside of movies and horror stories. To think that Narcissa

and Ada were complicit in its use infuriated her beyond words.

As soon as she entered the room and the door closed behind her she threw herself on

the bed, sighing heavily.

Title of the document

What a way to start her reign as Alpha Queen. Being forced to fend off a possible

invasion spearheaded by the wicked stepmother and stepsister. Ann snorted to herself

softly. It was almost as if her life was embroiled in the midst of a fantasy novel.

She grumbled loudly to herself as she pushed herself up and reached for her phone. If

anything strange had been happening then it was sure to be in the news, right?

Ann scoured as many sites as she could for any possible clue but as far as she could

tell there was nothing that would point to any attacks that were out of the ordinary for

their kingdom.

There was the odd feral attack on some of the smaller packs that sat on the edges of

the kingdom, marriage announcements for a few newly mated pairs but no sightings

of strange monstrosities, and nothing that screamed terrorism from the Excidium

coven anywhere amongst the headlines.

As she threw her phone on the bed in mild frustration, the door to her bedroom

opened and Adam entered with a wry smile.

“Pretty eventful day so far, right?” He said as he shut the door behind him.

Ann rolled her eyes and snorted.

“You could say that yeah. I don’t know what’s going on between those two but I wish

they would either make peace with each other or jump into bed and get it out of their

system.”

Adam chuckled and made his way over to her, bending slightly to kiss her forehead.

“You’re catching up with the news?” He asked as he took a seat next to her, glancing

at the discarded phone as he slipped his hand up the back of her shirt to rub her back

soothingly.

Ann nodded as she closed her eyes appreciatively and leaned backwards against his

shoulder, enjoying the soothing sensation that his touch and their bond brought.

“I was hoping that there might be something that might point to suspicious activity or

something, but there’s nothing out of the ordinary.” She murmured.

“They’re smarter than that Ann. I don’t think there will beany rash moves from them.

They a re clearly playing the long game and with Narcissa’s little scheme being

exposed, it clearly forced their hand. If anything, I think any indications of an attack

will be far more subtle.”

“You know, I seem to keep saying this a lot, but I wish our lives were a little more

simple sometimes.” Ann sighed ruefully.

“Don’t I know it.”

“Did you sort everything you needed to with Allen?” she asked half-heartedly as his

hands made their way around to her belly, his fingers stroking little circles across her

skin.

She was fast becoming distracted by the sensations he was sending through her

body, the electrifying jolts of arousal coursing through her without mercy.

“I did. He has his orders for the company’s active projects, as well as a few other

administrative tasks within the pack that I want reports on, and he’s also been

reminded of the conduct that I expect from him whilst going about his business as

Beta.” Adam murmured as he placed his lips softly on the nape of her neck and

worked his way slowly over the sensitive surface of the skin there.

“Adam… you’re going to distract me from my duties as Queen if you carry on…” Ann

whispered breathily as she forced herself not to give in to the lustful urges that Maeve

was begging her to sate.

“I disagree, my Queen, ” He replied playfully as she felt his lips stretch into a grin

against her skin.

“I don’t think you can argue this one with me, Adam. How am I supposed to focus on

anything when you’re filling my head with the thought of you inside of me…” She

moaned, breaking off at the end as Adam nipped the area where his mark sat,

sending shivers of anticipation down her spine.

She could feel the wetness between her legs, soaking into her panties as her core

throbbed with the need to be filled.

Ann allowed Adam to gently push her backward onto the bed as he maneuvered

himself above her and slipped his hand back up her top, his eager fingers searching

for her n**‘**s that had hardened considerably under his touch.

“Oh but I can argue this, “Adam chuckled lightly as he rolled her n****e between his

fingers and drew a gasp of pleasure from between

her lips. “If anything, I would argue that ensuring the conception of your heir is of the

highest priority.” Ann’s eyes flew open as she stared up at him with wide eyes.

“Adam… do you really think now is a good time? With everything…” Ann replied

hesitantly, her mind suddenly flooding with images of horrific outcomes for her yet-tobe-conceived child if the coven ever managed to get their hands on them.

Adam smiled down at her gently and stroked her cheek tenderly.

“Ann, war or no war, life has to go on, and what the Kingdom needs is a stable

monarchy. I promise you that I will keep you and our child safe, no matter what it

takes. I want this for us… I thought you did too.”

Adam’s voice was filled with emotion, a subtle edge of pleading danced in his words

as Ann felt her stomach flip and let herself drown in those bottomless eyes of his.

She didn’t need to answer him with words, there was no need. She simply wrapped

her arms around his neck and pulled him down towards her, their lips crashing

together in a passionate embrace.
