All Chapters of Divorced, Now Mated To His Billionaire Uncle : Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

I glared at Alpha Marcus, gulping down hard. "What do you mean I'm not leaving this mansion until we come to an agreement?"His smile was as cold and lovely as frost on a windowpane. "Well..."He spread those sturdy hands of his. "...maybe because my future depends on it."I raised an incredulous eyebrow. "How does keeping me prisoner, just like you've done to my brother, affect your future?""That's none of your business."I didn't know which was more provoking – the fact that he just eyed me with disdain or how he stepped further inside, making himself feel at home like he owned the place.Well, technically—he did.I had to bite back my retort."And what about my brother? What happens to him after I accept this so-called diabolical deal?"Alpha Marcus's gaze locked onto mine. "If you agree to my deal, I'll see to it that he's set free."Whoa... now, that was easy in a not-so-easy way. I pondered his words and weighed my options.Caleb's freedom was paramount, but I couldn't trust th

I felt like there was a lump stuck in my throat as I watched HIM approaching alongside his assistant.What the heck was Beta Jarred doing here?My face flushed as he finally got to the bench, his face lit up with a smile."B– Beta Jarred." I stuttered, hurriedly standing up and bowing slightly.However, the Beta quickly held my shoulder, forcing me to raise my gaze to him."No, no, no. Stop that!" He seemed shocked but at the same time, amused. "You're Luna now. There's no need for the exaggerated show of etiquette."My blush only increased as I nodded my head, proceeding to sit down.Shit, what was wrong with me? Was I shy?As much as my wolf protested against my confusing feelings, I couldn't help myself. I'd had a liking for Beta Jarred for a while now.Anyway, the Beta gestured toward the free space of the bench beside me before asking with the most polite tone ever. "May I join you?"I gulped but ended up nodding profusely, giving him a little too much space to sit comfortably.H

The approaching voices brought me back to my senses— mostly, at least.I quickly ducked, dragging Beta Jarred along with me as we hid in a nearby rose bush."You're certain you saw her come this way?" Luna Catherine's stern voice asked someone as the sound of leaves being crushed by footsteps became even closer.A male voice, probably a guard's, responded. "Yes, ma'am. I spotted the Moon's Chosen heading this way."What the heck? Why was Luna Catherine looking for me?My face heated up with rage as I attempted to come out of the bushes and give that wicked lady a piece of my mind when Beta Jarred held me back, his hands on both my shoulders."Don't..." He said in a commanding tone that managed to still sound polite.Gosh, even when he was trying to sound domineering he still managed to come off as kind."Would you shut up?!" Former Luna Catherine suddenly barked at the guard, startling me. "How dare you call that measly maid the Moon's Chosen? Do you want me to lock you up for treason

"There's no need bringing my father into this, Mother." I turned my back against her, walking away to my balcony.Once I got there, I placed my hands on the handrails, my gaze scanning the estate below.The guests and members of the pack who'd been invited for the ceremony had already begun trooping out, murmuring among themselves like a swarm of annoying hornets.Everyone from the nobles and rich folk within the pack to the simple maids and low-class members had something to say about the revelation of the Moon's Chosen, which I was able to hear even from this height."Can you believe Alpha Marcus rejected his mate? This pack is doomed!" One of the noble women clutched her pearls as she spoke to a friend of hers."Can you blame him? When in history have you heard of an Alpha being mated to a simple maid? The mere thought sounds traitorous.""I feel bad for the little brat, though." A male werewolf of the upper class chimed in. "She's so beautiful even as a maid. If only she were from

"What do you mean by 'my safety', Elder Gita? Is there someone planning to kill me?" I asked, arching a curious eyebrow.I didn't put much thought into the pack's spiritual matters and left it all to Elder Gita... But that didn't mean I wasn't a believer.On the contrary, my strong belief in the moon goddess and her ways was what made me confused about WHY the Moon's Chosen ended up being an ordinary maid.Anyway, Elder Gita cleared her throat, still standing in front of my desk with a somber expression on her face."There's no one after your life... Yet, Alpha Marcus." She blurted, looking grim. "But there will be consequences if you continue with your decision to reject your mate. Ashley was made the Moon's Chosen for a reason and rejecting her will make her incapable of helping this pack and showing her true potential."True potential?What the heck was this old woman talking about?"The Moon's Chosen of this pack and other packs from throughout history have always been young women
