2026-09-27 16:03:11The heavy air inside the obsidian shrine shattered with a terrifying explosion of sound.
Queen Vespera did not wait for them to strike first. She threw her head back, her bone-white hair whipping around her face as a guttural, demonic screech tore from her throat. Thick torrents of liquid black shadow surged out from her sleeves like writhing, living vipers. The dark magic flooded the stone floor, spreading out toward the entrance in a

Claimed By My Mate's Uncle 1. The Sparring of Seduction
15 years later...The morning sun filtered softly through the tall arched windows of the royal dining hall, painting the polished mahogany table in warm amber light. The palace was quiet, holding its breath before the grand festivities set to unfold at dusk.Asher stepped through the heavy double doors, his presence instantly dominating the vast room. At twenty-five years old, he had grown into a remarkably tall, athletic Alpha, standing even taller than his father and broad-shouldered enough to surpass his warriors in physical strength. His sharp, sculpted jawline, dark hair, and striking golden eyes gave him a gorgeously dangerous, regal allure that made him an imposing force throughout the realm.At the head of the table sat King Dominic. Though time had brushed his temples with silver and lined the corners of his eyes, the old Alpha King remained a powerful, revered presence. Beside him sat Queen Rosalie, her beauty softened by the gentle passage of years. A few silver strands gle
Claimed By My Mate's Uncle 172. Under the Starlit Garden
The quiet embrace in the study gave way to the joyous sounds of celebration as night fell across the kingdom. Lanterns of spun glass hung along the sprawling garden pathways, casting warm, golden light over low wooden feast tables set directly on the soft green grass. A grand banquet had been prepared, bringing together the entire royal circle and their closest companions under the clear, star-filled sky.Everyone was gathered around the central table, which groaned under the weight of roasted meats, fresh orchard fruits, warm loaves of baked bread, and spiced autumn wine.At the head of the banquet sat King Dominic and Queen Rosalie, their hands intertwined beneath the table as they watched their family. Beside them sat Killian, whose easy laughter rang out over the clinking of goblets. Across the table, Garrett sat with his arm wrapped around Anna’s waist, while little five-year-old
Claimed By My Mate's Uncle 171. A Harvest of Peaceful Years
Five years had passed since the shadow of the Western Wastes was shattered, bringing a golden age of absolute tranquility to the realm. The royal palace, once heavy with the tension of war council meetings and clashing iron, had transformed into a haven of warmth, laughter, and blossoming life.The afternoon sun beamed brightly over the grand royal gardens, turning the sprawling lawns into a glowing sea of emerald grass and colorful spring blooms. Soft summer breezes rustled the leaves of the ancient oak trees, carrying the sweet scent of jasmine and freshly cut grass across the stone courtyards.Sitting under the broad shade of a towering white pavilion in the garden, Rosalie relaxed into a plush velvet settee, a warm porcelain cup of floral tea held gently in her hands. She wore a simple yet elegant gown of forest green, her long, dark red hair cascading down her back in loose, glossy waves.
Claimed By My Mate's Uncle 170. The Long Road Home
The immediate aftermath of the battle was heavy with silence. Outside the ruins of the obsidian fortress, the unnatural frost had completely melted into the dirt, but the victory carried a quiet, solemn price. While the healers and royal guards moved swiftly to tend to the wounded, five courageous Alliance warriors lay motionlessly under white cloths, having given their lives to hold the outer perimeter against the dark constructs.Wooden coffins were hastily prepared from the fallen timbers of the mountain pass. With heavy hearts, the surviving soldiers gently lifted their fallen brothers into the coffins, securing them onto the rear supply carriages for the journey back to the capital.Near the front of the encampment, Dominic, Eldric, Killian, and Garrett sat on wooden crates, their bare torsos wrapped in crimson-stained bandages. Morana moved between them, her silver-and-violet magic flari
Claimed By My Mate's Uncle 169. The Fall of the Demonic-Witch
The sudden, blinding blast of Morana’s violet magic caught Queen Vespera completely off guard.Focused entirely on trying to crush Dominic and Killian under her shadow ropes, she didn't see the wave of lethal light until it smashed directly into her side. The strong violet fire scorched through her liquid shadow robes, burning the dark runes etched into her translucent skin.Vespera let out a high-pitched, agonizing shriek as her dark magic barrier completely shattered under the combined weight of Morana's counter-spell and Dominic’s burning Alpha light.That single second of distraction was all the opening Dominic needed.With a terrifying, vengeful growl, Dominic’s massive black wolf leaped forward through the clearing smoke. He closed the distance in a fraction of a second, his powerful paws slamming on

The heavy air inside the obsidian shrine shattered with a terrifying explosion of sound.Queen Vespera did not wait for them to strike first. She threw her head back, her bone-white hair whipping around her face as a guttural, demonic screech tore from her throat. Thick torrents of liquid black shadow surged out from her sleeves like writhing, living vipers. The dark magic flooded the stone floor, spreading out toward the entrance in a blinding, suffocating storm of black and violet fire."Hold the line!" Dominic’s Alpha roar reverberated through the hall, vibrating the stone pillars beneath their feet.He didn't hesitate for a single second. The deadly threat to his son burned in his veins, igniting his royal blood into an untouchable inferno. With a loud, bone-snapping sound, Dominic shifted mid-air. His human form vanished, giving way to his massive, b

Dominic dismounted the beast in one fluid, predatory movement. His massive hand wrapped around her arm, tugging her down with him. The moment her bare, bruised soles made contact with the freezing cobblestones of the courtyard, Rosalie's knees turned into compl

The thick, copper taste of Dominic Varkov’s blood coated Rosalie’s tongue, a metallic brand that felt like a permanent iron shackle around her soul. The ancient incantations chanted by the trembling High Priest still echoed in the freezing night air, vibrating
Claimed By My Mate's Uncle 4. Forced Marriage
The silence of the clearing was deafening. Thousands of eyes were pinned on Rosalie Ashford, but she only had eyes for Prince Cassian. There was so much pain in her teary eyes as she pleaded with her eyes, but he didn't offer her a single glance.The silver threads of the mate bond were still puls
Claimed By My Mate's Uncle 3. Her Precious Hope
Rosalie stood in the center of her cramped attic. Her eyes were fixed on the broken mirror in front of her. She has freshly showered, and her skin glows.Stepping out of her ragged clothing, she stared at the beautiful dress she had stitched out of torn dresses of Carolina.Rosalie put on the dress
