Claimed By My Ex's Uncle 의 모든 챕터: 챕터 101 - 챕터 110

Harley’s P.O.V.A pleasant smile stretched my lips as I trembled, both with nerves and excitement. Sliding my hand into Carlos's wide palm, I accepted the lovely invitation, and we stepped into the rhythm, moving across the polished marble floor. The band played a romantic song, creating an ideal situation for our dance. But my heart raced so wildly that everyone must have heard it. I tried to keep my composure, acting cool. However, the pressure of a keen audience got on my nerves, making it hard to focus on my alpha mate.Carlos noticed my unease too. He leaned closer, his voice dropping to that husky timbre that never failed to flutter my heart.“Forget others!”He whispered, his lips grazing the shell of my ear. “Just look at me, Princess!”I lifted my eyes to his, clinging to him as if he was the only anchor in this sea of music and movement. The sight of Carlos’s composed face indeed calmed the storm in my chest instantly, the circle of guests fading into the shadows at the ed

Harley’s P.O.V.The question hung in the air, awkward and heavy. The smile slipped from my lips instantly.Why did it even matter?Why did he need to know that? He was just a vendor, a stranger selling jewelry pieces in the market. But the expectant look on his face made my throat tighten. Carlos’s voice cut through the tension, low and clipped.“We are a couple. Just sell your necklaces.”The vendor’s expressions shifted instantly from polite to solemn. He shook his head.“It’s not like that, Sir. These are the sacred tokens, only for those chosen by the goddess Sanguis. I can’t sell them until the bond is fated.”His words struck deeper than I was ready for. My fingers trembled around the amber stone, the glow of it suddenly burning behind my tears. I wasn't a chosen one! I was just me. An omega who had stumbled into a love that should have been impossible. Carlos wasn’t destined to be mine. I had stolen him from nature with the help of Cupid’s love. Although I had understood t

Harley’s P.O.V. “What’s wrong with him?” The three vampires who had fought under Carlos’s command also came closer after hearing my questions, their expressions blank and almost detached. One of them lowered his head. “I didn’t know anything beyond my sire’s orders.” His sire, of course! A sigh escaped me as the pieces fit together in my head. Sired vampires were basically humans turned into vampires by the masters, bound to their will, and tied to their blood. Every pure-blooded vampire had the ability to create obedient servants who were eternally loyal and often completely hollow inside. As arguing with those custom made puppets would be pointless, I shifted, trying to push myself up. My limbs felt heavy, but not as weak as before. The medicine had given me enough strength to move my aching figure without any help. “Fine!” I muttered under my breath, brushing dirt from my hands as I got to my feet. It was better to go back to the safety of Laynox mansion instead of staying

Harley’s P.O.V.As soon as I heard myself, I bit my tongue hard, regretting my stupidity. Carlos was also shocked. His golden eyes searched mine, the faintest crease forming between his brows. “What did you just say, Princess?”“N-nothing.” I stammered, heat rushing up my neck.“Just a slip of the tongue. Forget about it.”But before I could retreat, Carlos curled his arm around my waist, drawing me back to his chest firmly.“But I have heard you loud and clear, Princess.”He said, a questioning note lingering in his voice.“You asked about our own pups.”My heart lost its rhythm for breath as I looked away, unable to meet his gaze. Instead, my eyes fixed on the floor, unfocused, as an old memory surged up like a wound re-opening. Xander’s voice echoed in my head, cold and cutting. “Our child? Are you insane?”He cast a dirty glare at my body before scoffing.“A woman like you shouldn’t dream of children you can’t have, Harley. You are infertile.”That was my ex's answer when I tri

Harley’s P.O.V.Derek slumped down in front of the fireplace the moment I locked the door, his back hitting the carpet with a soft thud. The flames flickered, casting an orange light across his face as he exhaled shakily. He pulled off his gloves, rubbing his palms together, and stretched them before the fire.“Damn!”He muttered, a tired grin flickering across his lips. “The weather is so cold in Grafburg. This city is like a freezer.”It was a fact that the wind was chilly here, but that wasn’t my concern. I needed answers, and Derek took his sweet time before replying.“I broke through the border security to get here, Harley. That’s why guards are following me.”My breath hitched, “You did what?”The words tumbled out of me in disbelief. Grafburg’s borders weren’t just guarded. They were sealed tighter than a royal setup. No one could ever cross in or out without clearance, especially not a werewolf, as shifters were banned here.My pulse pounded in my ears as I crouched beside h
