By the time Lexi, Allen, and Lord Brarthroroz arrived at Bartholomew's office, Adam was already there.
"Alpha." Allen greeted him seriously with a nod of his head as they filed in, Lexi and her father taking seats at Bartholomew's sweeping gesture, indicating for them to take their pick of any of the chairs that sat before him.
"Thanks for coming so quickly," Adam said gratefully as he and Allen clasped their forearms and took their respective seats opposite one another.
"Well, seeing as how you seem intent on getting my bestie knocked up so quickly, someone has to help you handle things," Lexi smirked as she lazily examined her nails.
Adam smiled wearily in her direction as he laughed lightly.
"It's not like I have a choice in it. You try ignoring the primal urges of the souls inside of us and let me know how well you do."
Lexi snorted loudly and fixed him with a no-nonsense stare.
