Alpha Nocturne's Contracted Mate

Alpha Nocturne’s Contracted Mate by A E Randell

Chapter 260 Mistake

Felix could feel Jasper scrutinizing his face for a reaction as he made his way over to the mini-bar and

poured himself a shot of whiskey.

He needed something to steady his nerves and settle his wolf who was howling in rage at the certainty

that Jasper had killed their mate.

Felix turned to face Jasper and downed the glass in one gulp, savoring the spread of the fiery liquid as

its warmth spread down his throat and radiated outwards, allowing a feeling of calm to settle over him

as he fixed his brother with a steely gaze. “Ann isn’t dead, Jasper.” He said calmly as Jasper’s face

creased in confusion.

The reaction from him was instantaneous.

“No, that’s not possible.” He laughed as he shook his head, “I know for a fact that she is no longer

living, if you have heard differently then they are merely covering it up to buy time for a new Alpha King

to succeed the throne and prevent unrest.”

Felix felt as though he had been punched in the gut. His wolf had been right. He had known that Jasper

was a cold hearted, sadistic killer, but to kill your own brother’s mate…that was beyond

comprehension.

“I’ll ask you again Jasper… where were you last night?” Felix growled as his wolf fought furiously to

take control.

Jasper shifted uncomfortably on the spot, his confidence wavering for a fraction of a second before his

arrogant mask was reinstated. “Such touching concern for the enemy little brother. Whose side are you

really on?” He snapped in an accusing tone.

“They were never our family’s enemy Jasper,” Felix snorted derisively as he began to approach him

slowly, “Only yours. You brought their hatred on yourself with your own actions, and our family has

been fighting to overcome the damage that you have wrought for years.”

“Why am I not surprised that our family continues to take the cowards way out instead of taking what

should be ours. Ann is dead, and by the time I’m finished, Adam and Allen will join her.” He hissed

furiously as he began to back away from Felix’s predatory movements.

The fact that Felix had not sided with him immediately had pissed him off already, but the suggestion

that Ann was still alive after he had ensured that she would stay dead infuriated him even further. It was

as if his own abilities in the art of murder were being challenged directly and he didn’t like that one bit.

“It’s over Jasper.” Felix hissed as he closed in on him, intending to secure and detain him as quickly as

possible so that he could ensure he repaid him a thousand fold for the devastation that he had wrought

on his precious Aoife.

“f**k you Felix,” He sneered as he lunged for him, a flash of steel catching Felix’s eye as he twisted

sideways and managed to avoid the thin dagger that Jasper had produced from somewhere within his

clothing and now wielded in his hand effortlessly, almost as if it were an extension of his own body.

“I’ll f*****g kill you for what you did to her!” Felix roared as he lunged for the arm that posed the most

danger, slamming his hand repeatedly against the cabinet as Jasper fought to break free.

“Why are you taking their side in this! We are blood Felix! I can help you become more than you ever

dreamed of!” Jasper spat angrily.

He simply couldn’t fathom why his brother had no interest in dominating those weaker than him. In his

mind, it was their birthright. “By taking the lives of innocent people? By murdering and violating anyone

that so much as looks at you the wrong way?! You’re f*****g psychotic! Aoife deserved better than the

fate you handed her!”

The shock that hit Jasper was enough of a distraction to enable Felix to finally disarm his brother and

as the knife clattered to the floor, Felix turned and slammed his fist into the side of Jasper’s head, the

impact sending him staggering backwards a few steps.

“What the f**k are you talking about?” Jasper hissed as he hastily backed away, grabbing everything he

could lay his hands on and launching it in Felix’s direction in an effort to slow him down.

“You didn’t murder Ann, you sick bastard, you murdered my wife, my mate! It was Aoife in that bed, not

Ann!” Felix roared as he barrelled towards his brother.

The mask of confusion and incomprehension on Jasper’s face gave way to one of delirious delight as

reached for the door of the bathroom and swung it out into Felix’s path, stopping him in his tracks as it

collided painfully with his head and he roared in fury.

“Seriously? I managed to get rid of that freak?” Jasper asked excitedly before breaking out into

laughter,

“Oh Felix… that is the most incredible news! You don’t understand just how much better this has made

my day. This is a thousand times better than killing that b***h of an Alpha Queen.”

Felix roared furiously and lunged for his brother’s infuriating face but suddenly found himself flung

across the room by an unseen force as Jasper chuckled darkly.

“Oh baby brother… you should have seen how she squirmed when I forced my fingers inside of her

t*ight little p*uss*y… I can certainly see why you insisted on b*urying yourself i*nside of her.” He

smirked as Felix raged helplessly from where he was pinned halfway up the wall.

“I won’t kill you just yet Felix, after all, where’s the fun in that? I want to watch your descent into

madness without your mate by your side, I want to revel in leading you on a hunt that you will never

see the end to… I want to take everything from you…and watch as you realize that with each life I take,

I become more powerful than you could ever imagine!” Jasper laughed manically.

“Take this as your only get out of jail free card, baby brother. Next time we meet, It will be because I

allowed it and on that day, I will take great delight in peeling the flesh from your very bones and savor

every last exquisite scream of delirious agony.”

Felix grimaced as the pressure on his chest increased, briefly terrified that his torso was going to be

crushed by this unknown magick that his brother seemed to have acquired. But, as quick as it had

appeared, the pressure vanished.

When Felix raised his head from the position that he had landed on the floor in, he roared in fury as he

realized that Jasper had disappeared too.
