Semua Bab My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me: Bab 41 - Bab 50

As soon as we finished breakfast today, Lucretius offered to take me on a stroll around the Golden Eclipse Pack so I could get familiar with it as the Luna of the pack.He showed me the facilities first, such as the training grounds, where his pack warriors trained in the wide expanse of fields. I watched as their movement was calculated and disciplined.It was way more impressive than what I could remember back in my pack."This is why the Golden Eclipse Pack stands unmatched in the north," he said. His hands were shoved to the back of his trousers as we walked. "Our warriors are trained not just in strength but in strategy. They don't act without purpose."I nodded silently, watching the pack warriors bow as he passed. His presence alone commanded obedience.Which made me wonder... which of them were considered his elite ones? The one I remember, he told me that he knew I would be marrying their Alpha.He led me next to the trading hall. It was a large marble structure where merchan

The cheers of the pack still echoed faintly in the distance, even the wolves howling, as Lucretius's hand remained firm at my back as he guided me away from the crowd.We were walking in a path with faintly glowing lanterns as the sun had already set. I could even see the countless fireflies steering us to a nearby lake."Shouldn't we stay?" I asked softly when we were already a little far from the ceremonial ground. "They're celebrating." I pointed out.Although I didn't want to bring it up and I was already tired from socializing, I wanted to point it out to him that they might be looking for us.And I didn't want to feel bad that their Alpha and Luna weren't here to celebrate with them."They will celebrate until dawn," he said when he watched me sitting down on the grass, his head slightly tilting with interest. "You've done enough for today. You need rest."The moment I removed my heels, I moaned and stretched my arms before sitting on the grass, agreeing with his statement. I di

The next day, Lucretius left early in the morning to meet the wedding organizer, and the packhouse was alive with preparations for tomorrow's second wedding. It would be held in the ceremonial ground where I officiated as Luna.While they were occupied, I was handling the paperwork from the military, which was delivered by a messenger before Lucretius left. He asked me to take care of it, instead of joining him to meet the wedding organizer.As much as I wanted to help him finalize the preparation for our second wedding, I could tell from his tone that he preferred that I handled things on his behalf with the help of Joaquin, his Beta. Even told me that he wanted to surprise what could be the outcome tomorrow, which I did not honestly look forward to because we had already gotten married, but he said that I would love the arrangement he had made.By midmorning, a knock came at the study room."Luna," Isolde announced, bowing as the door creaked open while I was arranging some document

Romina's amused voice broke between us before I could even gather my thoughts. "This is such a romantic to watch! Oh, love is in the air!"My head snapped at her, heat rushing to my cheeks so fast I almost dropped the bouquet. "R-Romina!"I nearly forgot that she was still here. I could have sworn that I thought it was only Lucretius and me at this moment. My wolf senses didn't even help me detect her.Was I so preoccupied with Lucretius because of his sweet kiss and gesture?Lucretius didn't even look flustered. Instead, he turned slightly, his expression unreadable except for that smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. And that only deepened the embarrassment I felt.I thought Romina would excuse herself, but as soon as she crossed her arms and playfully raised a brow, I knew that I must brace myself for another blow of humiliation."Oh, dear brother-in-law, do you know how long she's been waiting here? Since before supper. She refused to eat until you came home. I told her you mi

We returned to our chamber after that, and my body was still on fire even after taking a bath. I stole a quick glance at Lucretius, who had already finished his bath and was lounging on the balcony, half-naked in just his pajama pants, while I had just finished my own bath and was heading to the walk-in closet.Frowning, I had the urge to touch myself, but it felt disappointing if Lucretius wasn't watching me. I silently castigated myself for thinking about what happened at that time. That was why, to my frustration, I skimmed through my wardrobe and found a thin nightdress that was almost see-through.I wore it, which hugged my body, and my perky tits were pressing. Tonight, I felt bolder because of what he did at our dinner.I wasn't going to let him get away with it. I had had enough of him teasing me so badly and wanting me secretly.I even let my hair loose as I reached for one of my perfumes, testing out which of them would make Lucretius go wild when he smelled me. I picked the
