All Chapters of My Mate, Please Let Me Go: Chapter 181 - Chapter 190

Amaya POVFor Eli’s fourteenth birthday, we decided to keep it simple — just the three of us with a cake, a birthday song, and a few decorations. I had hoped for something bigger, but this was what he wanted. And honestly, seeing the small smile on his face as we sang made me realize it was perfect.Almost a month had passed since then. I was back at work. Eli had resumed school. And Dante… well, Dante stuck to me like a fly.News spread quickly at the office about our relationship — some even whispered about the truth, that he was my ex-husband. But at this point, neither of us cared.We didn’t hide it anymore. If anything, we made it obvious. Joseph remained professional, just like he promised, though Dante still hated him with so much passion.As for Dante and Eli, their relationship had grown even closer. Sometimes, so close that I started to feel a little left out. They would randomly announce they were going somewhere without me — arcade, swimming, even just grocery shopping. El

Dante POVShe said she was ready.Those four words kept ringing in my head like a damn war drum, pounding louder than the waves crashing around us. Ready to move on. Ready to start again. Ready… for me.I froze at first, staring at her, trying to make sure I hadn’t imagined it. That this wasn’t another cruel dream I’d wake up from with an empty bed and an emptier chest.But then her hands cupped my face, her eyes burning into mine, and I knew it was real.Amaya wanted me to mark her.“Are you sure?” I asked, while Mako snarled in the back of my mind, restless, urging me to stop wasting time.*Do it. Claim her. Now.*But this wasn’t just instinct.Once my fangs imprinted on her skin, there would be no going back. She would be mine… truly, in every way.She nodded without hesitation. Then, to drive the point home, she tilted her head, baring the soft curve of her neck to me.The sight almost shattered me.A strangled sound left my throat, half-growl, half-laugh, because I wanted to scre

Amaya POVA week had passed, and I still couldn’t stop staring into the mirror—tracing my fingers over the mark on my neck, simply admiring it.To think it took more than a decade for me to finally bear my mate’s mark.The bond felt different now. Even more stronger.It wasn’t just something I felt in my chest anymore, it was everywhere, especially in the way my body hummed when he was near.Sometimes I’d catch Dante looking at me like he couldn’t believe it either. Like right now.He was seated on the bed, elbows resting on his knees, but his gaze never left me as I combed my hair in front of the mirror.“How long do you plan on being a house husband?” I muttered, voicing the thought that had been on my mind for a while before turning to face him fully. “You’ve been here for months. Don’t you plan on returning to the pack?”“Will you come with me?” he asked immediately, like the question had been sitting on the tip of his tongue all this time.I froze, caught off guard. “I… I haven’t

Dante POV“Stop looking at me like that,” Cyrus muttered, though the grin tugging at his lips betrayed him.“Like what?” Ryder tilted his head, his eyes filled with mischief. “Like I want to kiss you right here?”“You wouldn’t.”“Try me.” Ryder leaned forward just enough that their noses nearly brushed.Cyrus chuckled under his breath. “Careful. You know I can’t stop when I start.”“I know.” Ryder’s voice dropped. “That’s why I’m leaning in.”They were practically in each other’s laps now, murmuring like I wasn’t even in the damn room.My eye twitched. I cleared my throat once—loud enough—but they didn’t so much as glance at me.They had been at this for more than ten minutes. Ten. Whole. Minutes. And the worst part? I was the one who called them to my office.Ryder had that smug, insufferable look plastered on his face while Cyrus tried to smother his laugh, and it was painfully obvious they were seconds away from kissing.That was it.“Focus on me!” I snapped, slamming my fist down

Dante POV“How long can you keep her distracted?” I muttered into the phone, pacing in the living room of her apartment with one hand buried in my hair while Eli stood in the corner quietly watching me lose my shit.Yeah, today was supposed to be the day. The day I finally proposed to Amaya.Everything had been set down to the last damn detail. Candles, lights, dinner by the ocean… all of it. But of course, the only ocean in town had to be dangerously close to her place, and there was no way I could risk her catching me lurking around. That’s why I roped Briella into distracting her.But then, because nothing in my life can ever go smoothly, we had an issue and everything got postponed until tomorrow. Which meant half the setup was already sitting there, waiting, and now I needed her out of the picture for one more day. Thankfully, Briella had somehow managed to talk her into staying at her hotel.Now she just had to keep her there until the next evening.I dragged my hand down my fac
