Craving my father-in-law のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 71 - チャプター 78

Valen’s POVI watched Veyra walk past me. She was practically running and crying. It was obvious that Gina did not entertain her either. As she ran away in shame, she looked back once, hoping I might call her name and tell her everything was okay. But I just stood there, letting her go. I watched her as she kept running and crying till I could not see her again. She had obviously entered her car and driven homeI stood there, not daring to make a U-turn immediately. I was going to wait a few more minutes until I was sure that she was not going to come back. So I stood and waited. It was about thirty minutes. When I was sure that she was not going to come back, I made my U-turn and went back to Gina’s house. As I was going to Gina’s house, I had a big smile on my face. He smiled. A smile that was not going to go so fast."Is she gone?" Gina asked in excitement, running towards me and throwing her hands around me when I walked back inside."Yes. And she believed everything.."Gina lau

Valen’s POV"I am so sorry for everything I did. I should never have doubted you,” Veyra whispered against my lips. "I don’t even understand myself lately. I missed my mental health check up twice. I think I need to go back and ask for more medicine. Gina posted something about mental health and I resonated with it. I don’t want my mental health issues to spoil our relationship…”"Shh. Stop talking about that. Everything is going to be fine. Even though your head is unstable, you are still my baby and I still love you.”She nodded, accepting my words completely. “Thank you…”"I have another surprise planned for tomorrow," I told her. "Something that will make up for today."Her face lit up. "Really? What is it?""Would I be able to call it a surprise if I tell you what it is?” I smiled at her. If only she knewShe laughed, “I agree, but I cannot wait!” she yelped in excitement"Good. I am working to make sure that it is going to be very unforgettable. It is different from the one I pl

Valen’s POV“Valen, we need to start getting ready too,” my wolf said after I hung up on Gina. “We need to prepare like every other person too.”“Yes,yes,” I replied. “Let me call for the servant in charge of my clothI called for the servant who takes care of my clothes. He came running immediately."Alpha, you called for me?""Yes. How is my suit coming along? Is it ready?"Marcus smiled proudly. "Almost finished, Alpha. The tailors are just putting the final touches on it. It will be perfect for tonight.""Good. I want to look like the Alpha I am.""Of course, Alpha. You will look amazing."After Marcus left, I went to my mirror to practice. Gina had told me to work on my speech, the one I would give before I crushed Veyra in front of everyone. I stood there, watching myself, perfecting every word. Every pause and every expression was perfect. I wanted to see the exact moment when Veyra's you realise that she has been playedI was still practicing when another servant knocked on m

Third Person LimitedSalvatoreThe wind howled outside the fortress walls like a living thing—restless, angry, relentless. The sound reverberated through the stone corridors of the stronghold, rattling windowpanes and stirring the flames in wall sconces. Inside the war room, Salvatore sat behind his large oak desk, unmoving, a shadow among maps and ledgers. His elbows rested heavily on the desk’s surface, his fingers rhythmically tapping against the edge, creating a sound that was steady but unthinking. His eyes, sharp as a predator’s and dark as midnight, stared blankly at the battlefield map spread out before him.Colored pins pierced through various points across the map—markers of skirmishes lost and won, key resource routes, ambush sites, suspected enemy hideouts. The map looked more like a bleeding carcass than a strategy guide. But none of that held his focus now.What haunted him—what clung to the edges of his mind like a thorn embedded under skin—were the scout’s words.“They
