Betrayed By My Ex: I Married His Uncle
(Trigger warning: this book has some elements of dark romance with an unhinged ML)
"Would you give me your surname or better take mine then? Will you be the lucky man?" I blurted out having no idea of what I was saying. My head was already in the clouds and blinded by his smile. It calmed the storm in my mind.
He laughed. Those dark abysses were truly alluring when they sparkled.
His fingers grazed my cheeks, wiping off my tears, before cupping them in his callous palms. "If you love my surname so much."
A foolish smile graced my lips, oblivious of the fact that he wasn't joking. "You can't back down now, hubby. You just got a wife."
I thought I lost everything when I walked away from Sinclair. I never imagined I’d end up as Alaric Von Duvall’s wife.

Chapter: 258 - The end Alaric’s POV The reception was grand. The entire resort was booked for the event. I spared no expense in making it perfect. The reception felt like stepping into a different world.The lights were warm, reflecting off the chandeliers above like tiny fragments of glass scattered in the air. The hall was filled with voices blended together with the clinking of glass. The air felt alive. The decorations were mind-blowing, but without her in the centre of it all, it looked bland. She was the brightest thing in the room. Not even the brightest chandeliers measured up to her smile. Cassandra and I had changed our outfits. Her wedding dress had too many layers to freely move in. I changed from the navy blue tux I wore at the wedding to a tailor-made suit that matched the dress. My cufflinks were made with emeralds matching her jewellery. She wore an emerald dress that caught the light every time she moved. It fit her like it was made for her alone, and for a moment I jus

Chapter: 257 - I DoAlaric’s POV Sunshine left me nervous last night. She cried for hours before finally falling back to sleep. By the next morning when I asked her what happened she claimed it was the pregnancy hormones Maybe I was just being paranoid but I felt it was something else. My eyes were locked on the doors. The chapel was filled. I was a bit nervous and still worried about last night but I knew this wasn't the time to worry.. On cue, the doors were pushed open. The music started, here comes the bride and the bridal procession started. Everyone stood up watching them match in. Lysander was even included as the ring bearer but my eyes were locked on the woman at the end. My Sunshine, I couldn’t look away even if I wanted to. She was breathtaking in that dress. The diamonds sewn on it sparkled under the lights. Our eyes met across the room, and I could see her smile under the veil. It was really happening. Even though we had been married for almost 4 years I still felt nervous ab

Chapter: 256 - The DreamCassandra’s POV "Are you saying you are Reborn?" I asked a question that seemed completely ridiculous but he didn't seem to be joking. "As crazy as it seems." He replied. I sat up adjusting the blanket over me and met his gaze directly. His expression was calm but I could sense the turmoil in his gaze "What happened in that life?" I asked out of curiosity. He gave me a small smile and his gaze turned a bit distant. "I know I should keep this to myself but it feels like a weight I have been carrying..." he started his voice off. "In that lifetime, you got married to Sinclair. We met for the first time at the wedding. You were the happiest bride ever, completely oblivious that Sinclair was having an affair with Aurelia all along.." My heart clenched at his words. "You gave everything into the marriage. You even gave up photographing. You had a daughter, a cute girl named Sienna. "Suddenly, something flashed in my mind. The day I found that lake and the image of the little g

Chapter: 255 - Wedding eve Cassandra’s POVAlaric’s mouth stayed hot and greedy on my breast, sucking hard enough to make my back arch off the bed. His tongue swirled around the sensitive peak while his other hand moved to the neglected one, massaging and rolling the nipple between his fingers until both felt heavy and aching, still begging for more. He switched between them without mercy, licking and sucking until I was trembling beneath him. His bulge pressed hotter against my thigh with every passing second, the thick length throbbing like it had its own heartbeat.My folds grew slick and needy, clenching around nothing. I twisted my fingers into his hair and tugged, my voice coming out half-moan. “I want to feel your muscles,” I begged He playfully pinched my left nipple, the sharp pain sent a white-hot flash straight to my core. I gasped as my head spun from pleasure. Then he sat up, still kneeling over my waist, and gave me that wicked half-smile.“As you wish, sunshine.” he chimed. He reached bac

Chapter: 254 - Pregnant Cassandra’s POV The arrangements for the wedding were flawless, Alaric was giving his best to give me the best wedding ever. It was already the best day ever and I honestly thought it couldn't get any better until the night of the wedding ceremony. There was a party hosted for the guests, but halfway through the party I felt out of it and left. My guts told me to try a pregnancy test I bought, I wasn't expecting to be pregnant but it struck me like lightning I was sitting on the toilet staring back at 2 pink lines, which felt like a dream. It took a good 5 minutes for me to process what I was staring at before I bolted. My bare foot struck the floor as I ran laughing at the test kit. For our wedding, we chose to host the entire thing at a private resort exclusively booked for the event. The bridal room was in a small Villa reserved for Alaric and me. The wedding was to be held by noon and it was still pretty early in the morning The bathroom doo

Chapter: 253 - Yes Cassandra’s POV Alaric’s hand stayed wrapped around mine as we stepped onto the rooftop. He paused briefly, then bent down and set Lysander on his feet. One of the bodyguards approached quietly and led him toward a small table set a little distance away. Lysander didn’t resist at all. In fact, he looked far too pleased with himself, glancing back at me with a grin that made it obvious he knew something I didn’t.“Enjoy your front row seat,” Alaric told him lightly before turning back to me.I narrowed my eyes slightly. “You two are definitely plotting something,” I said suspiciously. He only smiled and laced his fingers through mine, guiding me forward.The moment I took a few steps ahead, I froze.The rooftop had been completely transformed. It didn’t feel like a building anymore. It felt like stepping into something out of a dream. Roses covered almost every visible space, deep red ones lining a long aisle that stretched ahead of us. Soft lights were woven around the

Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta
*****
"As long as you can make him pay." I bravely said between my cries.
A playful grin appeared on his lips, amused by my pain. He was the devil, but I didn't care. It was a risk I was ready to take.
"Anything, including giving yourself to the devil." He chirped
That should have been a warning telling me to turn back, but instead, I nodded at him. "Only a devil can handle another devil." His grin grew wider, a laugh escaping his lips.
Those evil lips parted, and each word left me more dumbfounded: "For starters, strip right here and now." My mouth fell agape taken back by his request. It was beyond my expectations; I was still lost in a dilemma when the devil spoke again.
"I don't have all day, Mrs Romanov." He urged me.

Chapter: 263 - The end MIKHAIL'S POV Mishka was barely keeping her anger in check; her lips were twitching, although she still had a smile on. I always wanted children but the first one ended up being too similar to me. A living menace. At barely 5, he was already showing signs of his abilities, not just the alpha tendencies, but he inherited Brielle's powers too. We were scared the first time he disappeared because Brielle didn't show her powers until she was in her twenties Zoltana informed us that it was because Elena had sealed Brielle at birth. She suggested we should do the same for Andrei but his mother thought it was a good idea to let him keep it. He was just 5, and it was very dangerous. A child could teleport and control shifters, but she insisted that if he grew up with the powers, he would have better control. "Do you still think we should not seal him?" I taunted her. She smiled at me, stubbornly refusing to give in. "I will search for him. You should change for the ba

Chapter: 262 - our perfect story ADELINA'S POV I shattered completely, melting with just that one stroke but I knew it was far from over. "If you break the rope, It is over." Mikhail threatened me knowing that I was capable of doing that. It was torture yet it felt so good. At this point, I didn't even know the line between pain and pleasure. My knees and elbows were on the bed supporting me. His grip is tight on my waist. He cussed under his breath then withdrew from my pussy. My fists were clenching so hard, refusing to let go. He pulls out halfway before his thrust back again. He was like a beast whose leash had been broken. He went feral, each stroke pulling deeper into the hell of lust. I moaned without a thought and our sounds blended perfectly. Mikhail didn't slow down, not even when I begged for him to free my hands. Our skin slapped against each other when even I accidentally moaned out his name instead of alpha he squeezed my bosom. He didn't know I loved it or maybe he did because I moaned Mikha

Chapter: 261 - Play ADELINA'S POV Mikhail was kneeling between my legs, his cock was fully erect, veins running around it. Bulging and ready to devour me He sensed my gaze and held it in his grasp. A haggard breath escaped his lips. No matter how many times I have seen it, it always leaves me breathless It was perfect, every inch of this man was just perfect for me. I swallowed a lump in my throat. My mind trailed back to what it felt like to have him in my mouth. Dear goddess, I loved that. My tongue ran across my lips just imagining it. "You don't have to imagine. I'm all yours." A familiar voice boomed in my mind. My eyes popped out, he had a silly smile on his face. "You can hear my thoughts," I screamed in my mind. Mikhail leaned in, his teeth nibbling my ears, slowly kissing his mark..his voice came again in my mind. "The bond has been completed, of course, I can hear your thoughts, and you can mind link any member of this pack." My cheeks flushed, realising my tho

Chapter: 260 - Heat ADELINA'S POV Ophelia was far from the proud lady I knew a year ago. She looked like she had aged years in just this short time. "What do you think you are doing?" Mikhail asked her calmly. His composure only triggered her. Her grip tightened on Kai's hair. The boy whimpered trying to fight the tears. His eyes were pleading, Bianca broke down in tears, completely with Petra at her side, trying to hold their mother together. Ophelia glanced up, "They wouldn't let me come. So I had to force our way." She said then a smile tugged her lips. "It's our marking ceremony, Mikhail. Why are you about to mark another?" My fingers curled, her eyes were dead. It looked like she had lost her mind. Ophelia had escaped a year ago, the entire time Mikhail had been trying to find her but she was constantly off the grid. Failing from the position of an alpha's daughter to a fugitive rogue must have messed up her mind. Mikhail's jaw clenched, he was relaying instructions to the

Chapter: 259 - Mating Ceremony ADELINA'S POV I took Mikhail's advice and left the reception early to catch some sleep by the time I woke up. My room was already swamped with maids waiting on me. I stretched my hand yawning. "What time is it?" I asked. "11 pm your majesty." A maid answered. The title was a bit unsettling, but I will have to get used to it with time. My heart skipped a beat. "11pm ..." I rushed off the bed, cursing. "You should have woken me," I whined, now I was going to appear late for my own coronation. "I'm sorry but we were instructed not to disturb your sleep." A maid explained as they got into action. I face-palmed myself knowing who gave that instruction now I was going to make a bad impression by coming late "Will I be ready on time?" I sighed hopelessly. "We have an hour to prepare so we can make it." The maids assured me.. We were running on time, luckily we finished on time. The gown they slipped over me was unlike the wedding dress earlier that day. This one was simpl

He always looked perfect in everything he wore. I gracefully started my procession, my steps slow but deliberate. A feeling of Deja Vu hit me as memories of that day flooded my mind. It wasn't the same. Today was going to be different. We reached the altar, and Lawrence gave me a faint smile before he handed my hand to Mikhail. The faint Sparks erupted, and Mikhail grasped my hand, then pulled me forward. "You're breathtaking Mishka." He said his voice was husky. "Just don't ruin the wedding." I joked, his gaze hardened taking my words seriously. At this point, I was turning into a sadist, enjoying stressing this man. "That is an uncanny thing to say on your wedding." He sneered. I shrugged holding the flowering tightly. "You can't blame me. After all, you are a man filled with surprises." It was a deliberate retort. He s

"Why did your feelings suddenly change?" Xander asked me looking completely lost. There was no way I could say it was because if I stayed with him, I might die. His cold eyes were piercing through me but it didn't make me fret.
I averted my eyes knowing my next reply was a big lie. "I love someone else now, and I can't stand you anymore. Since we would be together for two months, our parents' promise will be honoured." Then he froze unable to believe my words.

Chapter: TRAPPED WITH THE RUTHLESS ALPHA CHAPTER FOUR - THE ROMANOV BROTHERSADELINA'S POV I was completely blown out of my mind when I heard him. Mikhail Romanov was a mystery to me. A seasoned businessman who suddenly popped out of nowhere and stormed the entire business world. There was very little about him online but there were rumours of how ruthless he was when taking out his competition and how much underground connection he has. When I said I was ready to do anything in my mind, the most degrading thing that crossed my mind was to be his servant at his mercy, but it never crossed my mind he would tell me to strip in a public event. I bit my lower lip in between my teeth, not only because of how nervous I felt in his presence but also thanks to the Bullet wound in my arm. "You must be joking, that can't be a request." I blurted. Thinking he would laugh out, saying it was a joke, but he didn't budge one bit. He stood tall with his hand in his pocket and his eyes keenly observing me. His lips p

Chapter: TRAPPED WITH THE RUTHLESS ALPHA CHAPTER THREE - TYRANT OF THE BUSINESS WORLD MIKHAIL'S POV I hated crowded places, especially ones filled with humans, but this was what I could not escape if I wanted to make sure I stood at the Pinnacle of the business world. Twirling the wine glass in between my fingers, my eyes glanced around the hall, looking for anything that could pique my interest. "What do you think about the corporation? Mr Romanov." An annoying voice chattered in my ears. I glanced at the middle-aged man who had been trying his best to strike a deal with me, but it was not a profitable venture. "I will think about it." I politely declined, even though we both knew I was not going to give him a second thought. How boring? A sigh left my lips for the hundredth time today. I was bored out of my mind. Maybe I should have attended the wedding even though my beloved brother didn't invite me. It would be fun to see the unfortunate human he tricked into marrying him. The unfortunate soul I would have t

Chapter: TRAPPED WITH THE RUTHLESS ALPHA CHAPTER TWO - THE BLOODY BRIDE ADELINA'S POV The best day of my life slowly turned into a scene from a nightmare I could not wake up from. Sitting in a white pool lace of my long princess wedding dress, my face was pale, and I froze. "Papa," I said again but it came out like a whimper this time around. The flower bouquet in my hand was on the floor. I grabbed my face with both hands, shaking my head over and over again, thinking it was a nightmare, but it was real. All that was on my mind was to reach my father's side, but Viktor had other plans. He firmly held my arm. "Where are you going, Mrs Romanov ?" He asked me. I did not care about that title. All I wanted was to run to my father's side. Why did Viktor shoot Dad? We were his allies. No matter how I think of it, my head could not think of a reason why. "This is a wedding present from me to you." He grinned at me. Everyone was in shock because of the sudden gunfire. Soon, it sank into my father's men's heads that thei

Chapter: TRAPPED WITH THE RUTHLESS ALPHA COMING SOON CHAPTER ONE - A BLOODY WEDDING ADELINA'S POV The happiest day of a woman's life was meant to be the day she gets married to the love of her life and I thought it was true. I had never felt this genuinely happy in my life before, despite all the resistance of us being from rival mobs. Finally, I was getting married to Viktor, the Mafia boss of a rival Russian mob today. Although my marriage was not purely based on love, the main goal was to join two of the biggest Mafia underground associations. My fiance, Viktor, owned one of the richest and most dangerous Russian mobs; my father agreed to this marriage to seek his protection as our group, despite its large size, is nothing compared to Viktor's association. The soft organ melody echoed through the large sculptured walls of the old cathedral to the outside, it was loud enough to reach the environs. Stepping down from the car I made my way towards the large doors of the ancient cathedral. The doors swung open

Chapter: 274 - Forever be his little red/ the end(Xander's pov) The soft sound of running water echoed from the bathroom; I pushed the door open entering the bathroom filled with steam with a thick scent of Lavender oils. It smelled like heaven, my little heaven. I got rid of the towel wrapped around my waist and then brushed my hand through my hair before my eyes drew to the glass walls of the shower. A silly grin graced my lips as I made my way towards the shower, where I could see Karis's figure from the glass taking a shower. I couldn't help but smile wider; I slowly walked towards the shower, the only place where I was sure the children wouldn't disturb us because Xavier sometimes cries to sleep with his mother. My life was pitiful, fighting with my children over my wife's time and attention; maybe we should have stopped with the twins. I stopped in the shower; Karis's back relaxed, sensing my presence. "I thought you weren't coming," she said, rubbing her hair with her back against me. "So you were expecting me." I c

Chapter: 273 - Forgiven myself (Xander's pov) SIX YEARS LATER The cool spring breeze blew, carrying a little scent on wet soil. It was another spring again and 15 years after Alessia left this world. I placed a bouquet of flowers on her tombstone, along with several others, which have been kept here. A lot has happened these past years, and I have been so busy I barely had time to visit Alessia aside from her death anniversary. Karis and I are hosting a small get-together to celebrate. Mum and Dad loved the idea of getting old friends and family together. "Alessia, it's been a while, and we all miss you, but you are in a better place now..." I started my one-sided dialogue with my sister. I had a feeling she was listening. Honestly, everyone was fine these past years, at least from what they told me. Skyler was getting better. At least he wasn't hallucinating again, but his condition was permanent. Either way, he was doomed; he deserved it. It was crazy, but I think I am ready to forgive
