last update publish date: 2026-09-10 15:00:07

The heavy silence that followed Ezekiel’s declaration was so absolute, so suffocating, that it felt as though the very air in the grand throne chamber had turned to solid ice.

"That's my child in her belly," Ezekiel repeated, his voice cutting through the stillness like a poisoned blade.

Rosalie felt the ground vanish beneath her feet. Her breath caught violently in her throat, her eyes widening i

tears the couple apart. I loved the chapters that were about individual growth and strength and them facing things together.

Ok. If we get 15 chapters where the stone (which is obviously magically altered) reveals the baby is Ezekiel’s, I’m going to stop reading. I open this app everyday to read the ONE chapter that is added bc I really love this storyline but I’m tired of this type of content obstacle that

  • Claimed By My Mate's Uncle   42. The Unbroken Will

    The vaulted subterranean chamber shook as if the earth itself were splitting at its seam.Pinned against the air by Morana’s thick, cosmic violet chains, the Demonic Witch shrieked, a sound so foul, raw, and high-pitched that it cracked the surrounding obsidian pillars into falling rain. The ethereal links burned into her scaled skin like molten silver, locking her limbs in place and neutralizing her dark flight."Release me, you ancient whore!" The Witch spat, her voice layering into thousands of echoing abyssal rasps as dark purple gore dripped from her scaled jaws."You had your era, demon," Morana declared coldly, both of her hands thrust toward the ceiling, her glowing violet aura burning like a dying star as she poured every ounce of her remaining sorcery into holding the binding. "Now face the King of the North!"As

  • Claimed By My Mate's Uncle   41. The Blood-Stained Dawn

    The sky over the Northern border did not open with sunlight; it tore open like a dying wound.Just as the first pale light of dawn attempted to bleed through the mountain pass, a deafening, demonic war horn echoed across the icy peaks. The cold morning air instantly turned pitch-black as a colossal, rolling tide of shadow corruption swept over the pine forest."DEFEND THE PERIMETER!" Commander Garrett’s roar shattered the morning quiet, echoing across the frost-covered encampment.Before the vanguard shifters could even draw their steel, the forest line exploded.Thousands of dark, unnatural horrors poured out from between the freezing trees like an avalanche of nightmare flesh. Monstrous, six-legged shadow chimeras leaped through the snow, their obsidian claws rending the earth. Behind them marched endless ranks of skelet

  • Claimed By My Mate's Uncle   40. The Deceit

    A silent, shimmering violet rift tore open across the frozen, ash-strewn crags at the edge of the Western Wastes.King Asher and Witch Morana stepped through the spatial tear onto the dark, cracked earth. The bitter wind whipped across the jagged rock faces, carrying the suffocating stench of brimstone, dried blood, and ancient rot. The moment their boots touched the desolate soil, Morana raised her slender hand, her fingers weaving an intricate, soundless cloak of ancient glamour around her frame.In a single heartbeat, her glowing violet aura vanished into thin air. Her physical frame faded into the surrounding gloom, and her divine magical signature dissolved completely from the icy atmosphere, leaving her entirely invisible to any demonic senses that searched the crags.Asher stood alone at the edge of the high ridge, looking down into the vast, shadow-dren

  • Claimed By My Mate's Uncle   39. The Missing King

    Dawn broke over the Northern border camp in a cold, hazy wash of gray light. Frost coated the heavy canvas tents, and the distant howl of mountain winds signaled the worsening weather rolling in from the icy peaks.Inside the royal command tent, Estrella stirred under her heavy fur blankets. The feverish burn in her veins had receded just enough to allow her consciousness to stabilize. Her heterochromatic eyes opened slowly, blinking against the pale morning light filtering through the thick fabric.Through the newly forged mate-bond in her chest, she felt a strange, terrifying sensation, an empty, echoing silence where Asher’s fierce, protective warmth usually hummed.Her heart gave a violent thud against her ribs."Asher?" Estrella rasped, her voice weak and dry.She pushed the heavy furs

  • Claimed By My Mate's Uncle   38. The Midnight Gambol

    The heavy canvas of the command tent shuddered as cold pine gusts scraped against the Northern border, carrying the damp, metallic scent of approaching snow.Inside, the atmosphere was suffocating. A thick oak war table sat at the center, its surface covered in parchment maps of the Northern mountain passes, weighted down by silver daggers and ink-stained stones. Assembled beneath the dim, flickering lanterns were Former King Dominic, Commander Garrett, Scholar Killan, Alpha Eldric, and Witch Morana.At the head of the table stood King Asher. His broad, bare chest was wrapped in fresh white bandages, his dark golden eyes fixed on the strategic lines drawn across the parchment.Suddenly, the tent flap was thrust aside. A Northern scout burst inside, his heavy leather armor dusted with frost, his face white as chalk and drenched in sweat. He fell to one knee, bre

  • Claimed By My Mate's Uncle   37. The Retreat

    The air in the obsidian courtyard tasted of ozone, ash, and dying iron.Pinned against the stone wall by thick, writhing tendrils of black magic, King Asher thrashed against his bonds. His Alpha eyes blazed like twin suns of golden fire, but the shadow magic wrapped around his chest and sword-arm only tightened, threatening to crush his ribs. Beside him, Former King Dominic bled heavily from a gouge in his side, Commander Garrett was suspended in mid-air by liquid shadow, and Alpha Eldric lay impaled on the frozen stone.At Asher’s feet, Estrella gasped for air, dark veins of black magic pulsing violently along her neck. Blood trickled from her lips, staining the pale stone beneath her.Hovering just inches away, the Demonic Witch rested her dark-scaled claw beneath Asher’s chin, her sulfur eyes glowing with triumphant, cruel delight.
