All Chapters of Accidentally Fell For My Ex's Uncle. The Dark Alpha: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Remi POV"Say something," Jade said.I said nothing."Remi."Still nothing.The pot was still boiling behind me. Steam rising. Rain on the window. Everything exactly as it had been thirty seconds ago before my best friend told me she was here to take my husband."Remi please say something," Zaya said. Quieter.I picked up the pot. Carefully. Wrapped it. Found a guard outside the kitchen door."Take this to the Dark Alpha's chambers," I said. "Tell them it's his tea. Don't spill it."The guard took it. Left.I watched him go."You're sending it through a guard?" Jade asked."I'm not ready to see him.""Remi—""I'm not ready." I turned around. Faced them both. "Give me a minute."They gave me a minute.I paced. Kitchen wasn't big enough. I went to the window. Came back. Went to the window again.She's processing, Parrot said. To nobody. Just noting it."I can see that," I said."What?" Zaya asked."Nothing."Be reasonable, Parrot said. Hear them out before you—"I am being reasonable."

Nero POVI woke up before dawn.First thought — no pain.Second thought — still no pain.Third thought — when was the last time I woke up and the first thing I felt wasn't the venom?The tea cup was on the table beside me. Someone had brought it in .Her tea. Her specific blend. She'd sent it through a guard.She was Still furious with me but Still making sure I didn't suffer.I held the cup for a moment and drank.Then set it down carefully.Idiot, I thought. I have been such a complete idiot.The morning was different.I couldn't explain it exactly. The venom was still there. The black lines hadn't disappeared overnight. But something had shifted.Future Remi's hands. The quiet. The first real sleep I'd had in longer than I could remember.Today.I was going to find remi. Get on my knees if I had to. Apologize properly. Not the half-apology I was usually capable of. A real one.She deserved that. She deserved considerably more than that.First the apology.How hard could it be.Ka

Nero POV"We are really doing this."Abel was standing at the arena entrance. Looking at the crowd through the gap in the gate."We are really doing this," he confirmed to himself mostly."You can still go home," Kade said."I'm not going home. I'm just noting it." Abel rolled his shoulders. Stretched his neck. "We are really doing this."I looked through the gap.The arena was full.Not fourteen wolves. Not a handful of nervous pack members hoping for the best.Full.Every seat. Standing room at the back. Nobles in the upper section. Elders in the front row beside the fourteen who'd been at training — Cian right in the middle, sitting forward, already watching the gate like he'd been waiting for hours."They came," Kade said quietly."They came," I confirmed.Word had traveled fast. Faster than I'd expected. By mid-morning the whole palace had known. By eleven the arena staff were pulling out additional seating. By noon there was no additional seating left."Don't hold back," I told

Remi POV"You should have told her….You skipped it."Manuel's voice. From the front of the group."I didn't skip it." Mitch Slightly defensive. "I categorised it under secondary implications and prioritised the primary data points which were the Olandria bloodline connection and the creature origin sequence and—""Mitch.""The secondary category was clearly labelled—""It's not secondary.""In my organisational system—""MITCH."Silence.I looked between them from the back of my horse. We'd been riding for three hours. The Moonstone palace was far enough behind us now that I could feel the distance in my chest. That specific stretch. Like something being pulled."What did he skip?" I asked.Manuel turned in his saddle. Looked at me with the expression of a man who had been trying to have this argument quietly and had failed."Tell her," he said to Mitch.Mitch adjusted his clipboard. Cleared his throat."The creatures," he said. "Their original creation. From my research into the cave

Remi POV"Grandma."She looked at me. Still holding both my hands. The way she'd held them since I was small enough to fit entirely in her lap."I need to ask you something," I said. "Something important.""I know." She squeezed once. "I could see it the moment you walked in."Manuel stepped forward."Grandma." His voice was different. Careful. The voice he used when he needed something and knew it. "I need to ask you a direct question. As your Alpha. And I need a direct answer."Grandma looked at him.Not afraid. She'd never been afraid of Alphas. I'd watched her look at them my whole life with that specific expression — respect without submission. The look of someone who had lived long enough to know the difference between power and authority."Ask," she said."The older Olandria cross," Manuel said. "Not Remi. An older one. Connected to this bloodline." He held her eyes. "Who is she? And where is she?"The room went very quiet.Isolde looked up from where she'd been hovering near t
