~Alaric

Nothing. I groaned, running a hand through my hair for the nth time this morning. I'd gone through every record, every document, every source I had access to regarding my nephew's death, and what I had to show for it was a desk full of papers that said absolutely nothing useful. No inconsistencies. No gaps, nothing that looked like anything other than what everyone had already said before.

Which, somehow, made it worse. I pushed back from the desk and dragged a hand down my face. I coul

  • Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle   52. Sera's Plan

    ~Sera~HOURS EARLIER~I pushed my door open, and my mother was already waiting for me in my room, which told me she already knew why Alaric had called me earlier.She always knew, somehow. But I didn't care. As long as she provided me with a solution to this fucking mess."You're not going with her," she said, before I'd even fully stepped in."Well, that's the assignment; I must go with her.” I deadpanned, rolling my eyes in annoyance. "Forget the assignment." She crossed the room and closed the door behind me with a sharp expression, the way I recognized from every important conversation we'd ever had. "This is your chance to get rid of her."I frowned. "What are you talking about? What chance?”"The pack she's being sent to." My mother's lip curved, as if she were satisfied with the information she was about to share. "Alpha Halter. Do you know who his niece is?"I tilted my head, not knowing where or who she was hinting at."Vespera Darkmoon."Something in me went still and pleas

  • Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle   51. Investigations

    ~Alaric“There needs to be a need to build a larger Silo for grains—” An elder rambled on for the past thirty minutes, and I tuned him out, leaning into my chair with my head propped up against my fist and my elbow braced on the arm of the chair, letting him talk while nodding like I was listening. But I wasn't. Barely. My eyes were fixed somewhere in the middle of the hall past the man currently droning on about grain reserves, and my mind was three places at once, none of which involved grains.These past few days without Althea had been stressful, for both my wolf and me. We had serious work done and about to do.I'd stationed four of my most trusted maids in Althea's quarters before she left, keeping her rooms occupied and moving. They left the lights on at the right hours, meals ordered and returned, so that anyone watching from outside would assume she was still here.And I also was running the guard deaths over in my head instead of listening to grain projections.Luckily, w

  • Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle   50. Compromised

    ~AltheaI've been compromised…And thrust into the unbearable life of a breeder.But for the other breeders, I don't know what fate awaits them.Now, soaking in a warm bath they put me in, which I barely noticed. My mind was already somewhere else entirely.Halter was Vespera's uncle.That was the thing I kept circling back to no matter what else was happening around me. Vespera's uncle.Which meant the moment Nolan realized I was no longer in Darkmoor- and he would surely do- it wouldn't take long for that information to travel from him to Vespera.And then, I'd be in serious trouble. And another part of my problem: Sera was still missing. It was eating at the back of my mind. Was she taken against her will? Did Alpha Halter get to her? Is she in trouble?I don't know, and that's the worst!I needed to wrap this up. Fast.I already had what I came for. The dead breeders, the breach of contract, the blind Luna, everything that told me something deeply wrong had taken root here long b

  • Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle   49. Blind Luna

    ~AltheaThe scream cut through the floor again, and my muscles tensed; I bit my lower lip, thinking of a plan, my chin tucked down.Nobody in that hall so much as exhaled, as they flinched towards each other, whimpering.I stumbled over frantic thoughts, unaware that the woman behind me had grabbed a fistful of my cloak at some point, until I felt the fabric pulling tight at my shoulder. But I didn't shake her off; instead, I pulled her in closer.The screaming outside went on for several seconds, then it stopped abruptly. The silence that followed was suffocating and charged, worse than the screaming itself.Then out of nowhere a staggering stench hit my nose, almost making me retch. My stomach twisted as I unintentionally looked sideways without fully turning my head, only to discover that one of the breeders near the front had peed herself.She was staring at the floor, her face completely empty of color with a dark stain spreading slowly down the inside of her shaking legs.A snee

  • Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle   48. Strip Them

    ~AltheaAs if he sensed my discomfort, he turned around, eyes sweeping across the crowd, and my stomach lurched so hard I nearly stumbled on the spot. I dropped my head quickly, letting my hair fall over my face, and praying to every deity that existed that he hadn't seen my face in that half second.I peeked over my hair, letting out a breath as I watched him dismiss the guard he was talking to with a wave, before saying something low to a man beside him, then started walking away without looking at any of us twice.The man he spoke to approached us, before clearing his throat. "I'm Alpha Halter's Beta. Follow me.”Immediately the breeders moved, nudging me forward also, and I moved with them, keeping my head down while pulling my cloak closer around me, but inside me? It was a mess. The nerves were crawling up my skin, and I could feel my back sweaty and clinging to my dress.I glanced back. About to tell Sera my predicament, but she wasn't behind me. My brows furrowed instantly.H

  • Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle   47. Vespera's Uncle, What Are The Odds?

    ~Althea"Is that why you also suspected Alpha Caiden?" I asked. "Because of Vespera?"Alaric said nothing. He just watched me silently, and even his silence has its own kind of answer. So I nodded slowly, more to myself than to him."It wasn't him," I confirmed, “we were together, and why would he want to hurt me?”With that, I turned about to walk away. "I'm leaving tomorrow," I told him over my shoulder. "You have until then, Alpha, to find whoever is behind this and sort out Nolan. That's the deal."I heard him shift behind me, surely not liking the way I handled it. Then I paused, not planning to, but because there was one more thing I needed to say, and I was going to say it while I still had the nerve.I turned back to him, just slightly enough, and lowered my voice so it stayed between us."I know you were testing me," I held his intense stare, "With the mission. With all of it. Seeing if I was fit enough to be your Luna.” He arched a brow, surprise and amusement clearly dancin
