~ODETTE

Camille suddenly blinked hard before forcing an obviously fake smile onto her face.

"O— of course not," she stuttered. "I was so worried sick about you. Thank the goddess you are okay."

I wanted to tackle her right there, but it would not be a very good impression at my first royal breakfast.

Rafael suddenly cleared his throat and this reminded the entire room to show their respect. The nobles rose and all bowed to us.

"Your majesties," they chorused.

That was when Rafael moved aga

  • Claimed by my Ex's Ruthless Uncle   39. THE COWARD

    ~CAMILLEI ran until my lungs burned.Branches scratched my arms and face as I stumbled through the woods. The hunters surrounded me while the terrifying roars of the black feral bear echoed from somewhere behind us.My heart refused to calm down.I could still see Adrian riding away.The way he never once looked behind him."Your Highness, this way!" One of the hunters shouted as he grabbed my arm before I could trip over a fallen branch.I nodded and I forced my legs to keep moving.Luckily for us, the echoing roars of the black feral bear had begun to fade. I survived despite getting abandoned by Adrian.By the time we caught up to Adrian, the forest had already grown dark. We had seen a firelight ahead and that was what we followed. We ended up in Adrian's camp.Several tents had already been set up and some of the men were gathered around a fire. The moment Adrian saw me emerge from the darkness, his eyes widened."Camille!"He rushed toward me immediately.For a second, I almo

  • Claimed by my Ex's Ruthless Uncle   38. HUNTING WITH THE PRINCE

    ~CAMILLEI wrapped my arms around Adrian's waist as the horse carried us deeper into the woods.I was beaming with excitement. The hunt was taking place and I knew that Adrian would come up on top. He always did. Adrian turned slightly and smiled at me. "You look pleased.""I am enjoying myself," I replied.“That is exactly how it should be. With me by your side, you will always be happy,” Adrian replied and I couldn’t miss the pride in his voice. “I trust you completely, my love,” I whispered as my smile grew wider. That fool Odette didn’t realise what she easily gave up. Sadly, she wouldn't get to understand what she had missed because she’d die soon anyway. “Will we be able to get the best game?” I asked out of concern."Of course." He spread his arms confidently. "Look at the men I brought with me. Every one of them is a skilled hunter. There is no way anyone here can beat us."I looked around at the men riding with us.So far, they had already killed several black feral rabb

  • Claimed by my Ex's Ruthless Uncle   37. THE HUNTED

    ~ODETTEI landed hard on the ground. More pain exploded on my ankle and I groaned in pain. Rafael stopped and turned to face me. He looked surprised to see me on the ground. "So you are capable of feeling pain." I raised my brows at him. "What? When did I give you the impression that I do not?" I looked down at my ankle and tried to touch it but I winced the moment my fingers touched it. So I gave up. Rafael came closer and squatted before me. "Aren't you a healer? Shouldn't you be able to heal yourself?" "It doesn't work that way. There are rules I need to follow," I explained. He furrowed his brows at me and reached out to examine it himself. "Ah!" I cried. "Be gentle, it hurts." He stopped and looked at me. "This is new. I have gotten so used to seeing you act tough and unbreakable that it's strange for me to see this side of you." I blinked at him as I realised that I had indeed fallen out of character. My wolf stirred within me. When did I become so comfortable around

  • Claimed by my Ex's Ruthless Uncle   36. THE STARTING LINE

    ~ODETTE"People of the Wolf kingdom," Tiberius began as we all stood before the tall trees that made up the woods. "The time has come for us to send our children in to continue the age old traditions. The one who brings back the best game whether in quantity or in quality will be crowned winner and in the eyes of the goddess, seen as deserving of the Wolf throne." Rafael stood tall by my side, his aura alone enough to scare away anyone from coming to stand close to us. Everyone avoided being on our side. They were all too afraid of what would happen if the demon got unleashed. But Rafael didn't seem bothered by any of this. He seemed to be focused on me instead. It was as if I was the only thing in his world and I could swear I caught him inhaling my scent at one point. "Now listen attentively as I list the approved animals for the hunt," Tiberius continued. "Shouldn't you listen to what he has to say?" I asked Rafael who was watching me closely. "If we don't bring anything ba

    ~ODETTERafael kept his emerald green eyes on me. He was so close that it made my wolf dance at the depth of my core. He looked down at my lips and I believed he was going to kiss me. He started breathing heavily the next minute. And I saw him struggling to control himself.There was a sort of fear within him. He was scared of giving in. He did not want to surrender to me. Perhaps because he hated the feeling of surrendering— of being vulnerable to someone else besides himself. I saw the storm in his eyes. There was a battle going on in his head and I was the cause of it. So I did the one thing I could think of, the only way I knew that might end the storm. I leaned closer and eliminated the distance between us. I kissed him. For the second time since I met him. But this time, it was different from the last time or the first time he kissed me. I felt something, an urge. . . It surged to life from the depth of my core. And I could not explain what it was. What did it want me

  • Claimed by my Ex's Ruthless Uncle   34. COME WITH ME

    ~ODETTEThe hall went crazy. "The demon Prince wants to go too?" "That's dangerous!" "What if he loses control and goes on a killing spree?" Whispers of all the terrified people filled the hall. I could almost see the terror in them. Their faces had gone pale, as white as ghosts. Yet no one had the courage to rise and come forward to lay their complaints to the king directly. They were too afraid of him. "Father," Layla's voice suddenly cut from behind me. 'I do not think allowing Rafael to participate at the annual Hunt Festival is a good thing." As she spoke, Rafael rose from his feet unbothered by her opinion and came to kneel before me. "No offense but Rafael already carries a demon within him. Sending him out there where blood is inevitable is like feeding a monstrous flame," Layla explained her point. The hall seemed to agree with her because the murmurs seemed to quieten down. Rafael gently took my hand, almost as if no other person existed in the hall. "Will you com
