Josie’s POV

The building felt unnaturally quiet after the chaos of the gala, like the entire city had paused to catch its breath after the violence that shattered the night. I stood behind the one way glass inside Alexander’s private security level, my arms folded tightly as I stared into the interrogation room below. The man who had fired the gun earlier was tied to a metal chair bolted to the floor, his expensive suit wrinkled and stained with sweat. The arrogance he carried in the ballroom h

  • Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle    Chapter 28: The Price of Jealousy

    Josie’s POV The ride back from the park was silent. Not the comfortable, a type of silence that sometimes settled between Alexander and me after a long day, but a thick, heavy quiet that pressed against my chest with every passing minute. Lily sat happily in the back seat, humming to herself while finishing the last of her ice cream, completely unaware of the storm quietly building in the front of the car. I kept my eyes on the city passing by outside the window, though I could feel Alexander’s presence beside me like heat radiating from a fire. He hadn’t raised his voice. He hadn’t shown anger in the park either. But that calm warning he gave me before we left echoed over and over again in my head. “Block the number!” It wasn’t a request but an order. And the part that made my pulse quicken wasn’t the command itself but the promise that followed it. “You’re going to learn why I don’t like other men touching what belongs to me.” The words had been spoken quietly, but they carried a

  • Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle    Chapter 27: The Stranger

    Josie’s POVThe afternoon sun hung low over the park, painting the lake with streaks of gold and amber. Lily’s laughter echoed across the playground as she chased a group of children around the bright red slide, her voice light and carefree in a way that felt almost fragile considering the storm quietly brewing around us. I sat beside Alexander on the bench, trying to enjoy the peaceful moment even though his words from earlier still lingered in my mind, someone else is involved now. He hadn’t explained what Chris discovered, and the silence that followed only made my curiosity grow sharper. Alexander leaned forward slightly with his elbows resting on his knees, his gaze never straying far from Lily as she played. Anyone watching us would assume he was simply being protective. But I knew Alexander well enough now to recognize the subtle shift in his posture. He wasn’t just watching Lily. He was watching everything, the walking paths, the benches, the people passing by with their dogs

  • Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle    Chapter twenty six: A Quiet Return

    Josie’s POVThe person wasn't clearly visible so Alexander demanded that Chris should find out who it was.The penthouse had been unusually tense for days; Ever since Alexander began dismantling Sarah’s family empire piece by piece, the atmosphere had shifted. Chris moved through the building with increased security, the staff spoke in hushed voices, and Alexander spent long hours inside his office coordinating strategies that slowly crushed his enemies without a single public confrontation. Yet that morning, something different filled the air. I heard the elevator doors open while I was in the living room reviewing documents, followed by a small burst of laughter echoing down the hallway. A familiar, cheerful voice cut through the quiet tension. “Uncle Alex!” Lily’s tiny footsteps raced across the marble floor before I even had time to stand. She ran straight into the room and launched herself toward Alexander, who had just stepped out of his office. For a moment the powerful, inti

  • Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle    Chapter twenty five: Ashes of an Empire

    Josie’s POVWar, I realized, didn’t always begin with explosions or gunfire. Sometimes it began quietly with a phone call, a signature, a whispered order that moved through powerful circles. Three days had passed since the interrogation, yet the name that shooter had whispered still lingered in my mind like poison slowly dissolving through my bloodstream, Sarah’s family, The same family who had helped her craw her way into the Hart social circle years ago. The same family who smiled politely at charity galas while secretly building a web of influence beneath the surface. They had thought they could strike at Alexander from the shadows, using pawns and disposable criminals to weaken him before anyone realized what was happening. What they didn’t understand was that Alexander Hart didn’t respond to threats like ordinary businessmen. He didn’t argue, negotiate or issue public statements. He destroyed people. I watched it unfold over the next week like a carefully executed chess match. Al

  • Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle    Chapter twenty four: Ashes and Promises

    Josie’s POV The morning of Victor Hale’s funeral arrived, The cemetery gates were already crowded when our car pulled through them. Black sedans lined the long gravel road, and men in dark suits stood in small clusters speaking in low voices one could barely hear. Victor had spent fifteen years working beside Alexander, and judging by the size of the crowd, he had earned the respect of nearly everyone in the business world. I stepped out of the car slowly, adjusting the sleeve of my black coat as the wind brushed lightly across the open grounds. The scent of damp grass mixed with the faint fragrance of flowers arranged near the freshly dug grave ahead. For a moment I simply stood there, observing the scene unfolding around us. People glanced in our direction the moment Alexander stepped out beside me. Some nodded respectfully. Others lowered their eyes. Alexander Hart, his presence commanded attention. But today he wasn’t here as a CEO or the feared titan of the Hart empire. Today h

  • Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle    Chapter 23: Alexander’s Justice

    Josie’s POVThe room outside the interrogation chamber felt thick after the man finished speaking. I remained behind the one-way glass, staring at the trembling shooter who had finally broken under Alexander’s quiet pressure. Just minutes ago he had acted like a man who believed he was untouchable. Now he looked like someone who had realized too late that he had stepped into the wrong battlefield. His breathing was fast, almost frantic, and every few seconds his eyes flickered toward Alexander like he was trying to measure the chances of survival written on that cold, unreadable face. The confession still echoed inside my mind. Sarah’s family. The name itself carried a dark weight. I had already known Sarah was dangerous, but hearing that her entire family had orchestrated the accident, the surveillance, and the chaos at the gala made the situation far more complicated than it first appeared. They weren’t simply targeting Alexander’s business reputation. They were trying to weaken t
