Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell
Chapter 209 The Dubois
Lexi’s stomach sank at his words and she could practically feel the pain radiating from him as he
spoke. “I didn’t even know you had a sister..” She murmured quietly as Felix’s head shot up and he
glared at her with an anger that quite frankly chilled her to the bone.
“I don’t Lexi, not anymore.” He growled furiously before downing what was left of his whisky and
slamming the glass down on the table in anger.
Lexi’s heart sank as her heart broke for him She had always regarded Ann as a sister and a lump
began to form in her throat as she pictured the possibility of losing her.
“Allen… I’m sorry… I didn’t know…” Lexi stammered quietly, suddenly at a loss for words.
“Yeah… well… there’s nothing to be sorry about. It won’t change anything. It is what it is.” He snapped
gruffly as he raised an arm to signal the omega for a refill.
Lexi fully understood now why he hadn’t wanted to discuss this with her. It was painful for him
obviously, and it was obvious the Dubois family had something to do with her death She could have
kicked herself
This was one time that she really shouldn’t have pushed for more details She snorted quietly to herself
in disdain. She had wrongly thought that Allen was just being difficult, and that perhaps he still
continued to underestimate her, but ironically, this time, she was the arsehole.
She shifted awkwardly in her seat and brushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear as she swirled the
wine in her glass thoughtfully.
“I’m sorry Allen. If I had thought for one minute that it was something like this that you didn’t want to
discuss, I would have waited. I wouldn’t have pushed so hard for you to tell me. You don’t have to
continue if you don’t want to.” Lexi said finally in a hushed tone as the omega approached the table
with a bottle in one hand and an ice bucket in the other.
Lexi watched her pour him a new glass and add the ice, but when she was about to turn and leave,
Lexi reached out and took hold of her arm.
“You can leave the bottle and the ice bucket if you wouldn’t mind.” She said as the omega bobbed her
head and hastened to do as she was told, placing the items carefully on the table before her before
scurrying away again.
Allen eyed her carefully as he took another sip from his glass and this time, placed it carefully on the
table. “I think both of us need to learn to trust one another when things are said.” Allen said with a faint
smile, “As it is, I’ve started telling you now, so I may as well finish.”
He took a deep breath and exhaled heavily as he tilted his head backward, staring at the ceiling for a
long time before returning his gaze to meet Lexi’s, the unshed tears sparkling in the corners of his
eyes.
“I didn’t know it at the time, but as they carried me off the combat field, with Alora clutching onto my
hands desperately as she sobbed and I clung to what little consciousness remained, his protests
quietened as he became fixated on her as he was dragged away.” Allen continued
“Alora was your sister?” Lexi asked softly, seeing the tenderness in his eyes as he recalled the memory
of her.
“Yes,” He nodded gently as he fiddled with his glass on the table before him. “She was such a little
thing, almost thirteen years and full of an insatiable curiosity about everything.”
Allen paused as his face hardened and Lexi waited patiently for him to continue. She wouldn’t rush this,
or force it from him. If he was telling her now, it would be in his own time.
“She waited patiently in the corridor whilst I underwent surgery for the bones that had been misplaced
during the hammering I took and were protruding through the skin in places. They had to work quickly
to ensure that the natural healing abilities we possess as wolves didn’t fuse the bones in the positions
they were in.” He explained as he saw a flicker of confusion in Lexi’s eyes, and as she nodded in
understanding, he continued.
“As soon as I was brought out of the theater, she was at my side again. Our parents had been away on
diplomatic matters, so she felt duty-bound to be there for me. If she had just stayed home, and not
attended the tournament as I had told her …” He trailed off bitterly as Lexi’s hand found his and her
fingers curled around him tightly, the touch of her skin spreading an almost euphoric feeling of
calmness through his fraught emotions
“You can’t blame yourself. . I don’t know everything but… it certainly doesn’t sound like you were at
fault for whatever happened.” Lexi offered in commiseration as Alien’s face which had begun to relax
only seconds earlier, hardened instantly again.
“I don’t blame myself, Lexi. I blame Jasper. He was the one who incapacitated me in order to have
some small revenge on Adam, and when that hadn’t quite sated his lust for power, he chose to pursue
a vile and abhorrent act that the Goddess herself will punish him for when his wolf is called home.” He
snarled, his canines bared in fury as Orvar’s presence flashed in his eyes.
“The f****g coward waited until I was sedated in the evening and asleep again, before sneaking his way
in and enticing my sister away. In her innocence, she followed him, knowing full well that he was a
diplomatic visitor and a son of the king, so what harm could possibly befall her?” He snorted almost
regretfully, “She didn’t stand a chance, Lexi. As soon as he had got her deep enough into the woods,
he took her innocence…”
Allen’s voice cracked and he took a moment to compose himself as Lexi covered her mouth in horror
and Allen continued, his voice deadly and his eyes glowing with the murderous rage that rippled from
him ominously.
“He r***d her Lexi. Jasper r***d my twelve-year-old little sister and destroyed her body and spirit in
unspeakable ways before he left her for dead. They found her the next morning, during a patrol of the
perimeter barely clinging to life. She barely had the strength to utter his name and identify him as her
attacker, before she lost consciousness.” Allen finished, his chest heaving with emotion as Lexi wept
silently.
“She never regained consciousness, and my parents never got to say goodbye before she left us…” He
finished somberly as he stared into the bottom of his glass for a few moments, clearly deep in thought.
Without another word, he lifted the glass to his lips one more and drained the contents, crunching the
ice between his teeth as he reached for the bottle and poured more of the fiery liquid that smothered
his emotions into his now empty glass. “That’s why I detest the Dubois, Lexi Jasper or Felix, it doesn’t
matter to me, they are still blood relations and cut from the same cloth. Jasper went unpunished and
continued to live with his little brother thanks to the King’s immunity from punishment whilst in
diplomatic attendance, whilst I lost the light of our family, my little sister, and spent years blaming
myself for her death.”
