Alle Kapitel von Betrothed to My Alpha Mate's Son: Kapitel 61 – Kapitel 70

As soon as I finished my task, I returned to my quarters and let my bed succumb to drowsiness after the whole day of sprinting to every flower shop in the capital. I woke up after draining this exhaustion and stared at the ceiling, recalling the Peruvian lilies that I had made some bulk orders just for the arrival of Luna Queen Rachelle. I understood that she and Alpha King Claudian were our esteemed guests. Still, the royal military was making a good impression on the Luna Queen of the Waevalon Kingdom since Luna Queen Rachelle Simon-Alexander was once in the royal military in their kingdom. She was considered in their kingdom as the first female who had been allowed to be in the military when their laws only allowed men to enter there or any other profession. She proved herself and rose from private to battle commander until she became one of the military's generals. Since then, she became an inspiration to the other kingdom that they already allowed other women to join the royal

I froze at the realization before I immediately got up from his bed. However, Cretheus quickly halted me in my arm and returned me by lying on the bed again. "R-Release me this instant!" I wriggled under his hold, but he pinned my hands on either side of me, making me feel helpless, primarily because he used his body to staple me. "Cretheus, you—"Cretheus emitted a menacing growl, one that sent shivers down my spine, as his sapphire-blue eyes blazed with anger. "Who in the fucking hell marked you? When did you have that?" Then he checked my other shoulder and gasped in horror when he saw another mark. "What the fuck..." "It's none of your business!" I spat, using my wolf strength to push him away, but with Cretheus' build, I had a hard time doing it.He smirked bitterly. "None of my business?" he parroted in disbelief. "You are my fucking mate, Kasumi! How can you allow another man—men to—"I chimed in. "I told you I didn't want you as my mate! I'm not accepting you as one of them!

"So, he confronted you..." I paused as I looked into Theodore's eyes after he told me that he had gone to see Cretheus as soon as they arrived in the camp. He told me that instead of discussing what the royal soldiers were being dispatched to pursue the rogues, Cretheus, being an asshole, had engaged with him in a deep conversation."Yes. It is bound to be that way anyway. I am not surprised Uncle will be mad," he said while caressing my cheek with his thumb.We were just done from our secret lovemaking to the forest. We had to do it quickly because it was the patrolling time. I was planning to leave, but Theodore was so clingy that he begged us to stay for three minutes before the patrollers would pass by in our direction.And I wasn't even complaining because I was purring from his touch while he was doing the same because I kept nuzzling my nose to his cheek, showing how much I missed him. I was smiling like an idiot, knowing his wolf couldn't keep himself from me. And I was more

"Cretheus...?" I blinked, not believing that the person in front of me was really him. Not only that, why did my heart flip from my ribcage when I knew that my wolf was tamed by the incantation jewelry? My heart shouldn't react like that, but it really happened unexpectedly. Cretheus pierced his attention on me, making me hold my breath upon noticing his expression clouding darkly at this moment. Then, he switched his attention to Minato and squinted his eyes. "Minato Ikeda..." he mentioned his full name with pure distaste. "Are you trying to harass her?" Minato chuckled and sighed. "Cretheus de Rosa, long time no see." But then, he creased his forehead when it looked like something had made him remember something. "And what do you even mean that I am harassing her? I am not. Isn't that right, Kasumi?" I pursed my lips into a thin line, wanting to say that Cretheus was right, but I couldn't trust how he would react. "He is right. We are just catching up because of our clans." Thi

ThaddeusThe whole tent was obscured with deafening silence while Theodore and I had Kasumi sit beside us while my uncle sat across from us. The tension kept rising every second we stayed here, and I respected Kasumi's feelings on what she felt today.I only suggested that she leave because I noticed that it never went well between them. Even though Kasumi knew that Theodore and I already accepted that Uncle Cretheus could be part of her life, it was still up to her if she wanted him to be with one of her mates.While I was on my mission, I was highly positive that Uncle Cretheus could take her heart just as my twin brother and I did. But arriving here and learning that there was still no progress between them made my heart sink.
