Semua Bab One Nightstand With My Ex's Uncle : Bab 141 - Bab 150

142LUCAS’ POV.I left the garden, right after Emily, and made my way to John’s room. I wasn’t going to try to calm him, or strike a deal like Emily thought. Instead, I was going to threaten him. If he really wanted to go against me, then he was to go ahead and try shit.In any kind of battle, I was definitely going to win.I knocked on his door hastily, but there came no response, so I opened it. The room was cold, and deserted. He wasn’t there.My next destination was the Raymond mansion, hoping he didn’t go there to tattle off to his father first. Although, I doubted he’d do that. He’d probably want to think about it, and decide the best way he could use it to his advantage, and he was likely to try to threaten Emily with it also. Try to order her around.However, the lights of the mansions were off. Then, it hit immediately. He had probably gone to await Emily in her room.My feet didn’t waste any time in rushing back to my mansion. Before John did anything irrational in his drunk

144LUCAS’ POV.“Court? You don’t mean that? What do you want to fight for in court?” She asked, looking at me with her brows raised.“A divorce.” I replied, and she shook her head.“How do you hope to win against John in court? You know how he manipulates people, and wait, what are we fighting for? Can partners of the Alpha Marriage be divorced? It’s a blood contract that was signed, it can’t be broken.” She said.“I know. The couple will no longer be called a couple in name, but the both of them can no longer sleep with, or love any other people, but our case is different. We can still love each other because for some reason, I’m not dying, even though I’m daring to have a relationship with you.”“I thought we agreed it’s because you and John are related by blood?” She asked, folding her arms.“We don’t know that. Will says, centuries ago, a man once died by sleeping with the wife of his twin. There has to be another reason, and Tray just told me about a library that keeps old, forg

146EMILY’S POV.“Have a seat.” Alpha Raymond said coldly, as I stood fixed to the spot. Not even Lady Genevieve was smiling. She looked like I had done something wrong.Although I could remember her telling me that if I wanted to have an affair with Lucas, then it was a secret that had to be kept between the three of us alone. She knew that her siblings wouldn’t accept it.I walked across the soft plush rug, and sat on a sofa that was definitely meant for me. It managed to be opposite them all. A place where they could stare hard at me. Mugs of tea lay on the center table between us, and a few shadows played in the room, due to all the lights not being fully turned on.“You should stop whatever crazy thing you’re planning on doing with Lucas.” Came the chill from Alpha Raymond.“Look. Let’s not waste our time.” Lady Mira interrupted. “I never really wanted you in this family. I mean, why would I want you as a wife for John when there are other great ladies out there? Ladies with a be

148EMILY’S POV.Time moved so fast. When was it that I had filed the request for divorce? It didn’t feel like up to a month, yet the date had come fast, bearing down on me like a heavy weight.Had it been a regular marriage, then I was sure to be able to get a divorce, but due to the fact that the Alpha Marriage was involved, if I didn’t win, then I’d have to stay in the marriage.Reasons were because they felt the need to protect whomever I might try to sleep with, and in the process kill them. If my reasons weren’t solid enough, or life threatening, then according to the old Werewolf law, I would not be allowed to leave the marriage I had willingly entered.And proving that I had been forcefully pushed into it was going to be hard without evidence.With a racing heart, Lucas and I entered the courtroom. He looked at me, and gave a nod, and I gave one in return. The only people present were the family, the judge, and the lawyers. It was the private trial I wanted.After the judge wa

150EMILY’S POV.I ran to hug Lucas, and he hugged me in return. I couldn’t believe I was finally free. John couldn’t claim me as his wife anymore, and the nightmare I had been thrown into was fast turning into a daydream.It was just so hard to accept that I was finally free from John. He had no right to touch me whatsoever, or claim me. The rush of sweetness just made me so happy. I couldn’t help, but show it.“I told you we’d win.” Lucas said, beaming down at me.“I thought it was going to be a long draw, but it was quite short.” I replied.“John couldn’t risk denying when Katie was there. She probably has more recordings of their conversations, with John’s dirty deals in it. He had to stop before she revealed something that could actually be a real problem.”“Thank goodness. By the way, where’s Katie?” I asked, looking around.“She got a call, and left quickly.”“Oh, I see. I guess I’ll have to meet her later.”~When we returned home, I was all smiles, I couldn’t help it. It was
