All Chapters of Claimed by My Ex's Alpha King Uncle: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

"Did a truck run you over?""Ah!" I screamed, hands clenched against my chest as I struggled to catch my breath. "You fucking scared me, Koralie." I spoke, voice weak."What's up with you?""I really need to change my password." I ignored her, slumping slowly onto the couch as I winced in pain.Every part of me ached. Every inch of my skin.I'd dropped Dane off at his house, hoping he'd get enough rest from all he had been through, then come home to an empty house, rest enough and possibly recover before heading to work… even though I knew deep down that it would be impossible.He had warned me about his primal fever, but if I were to do it all over again, I would willingly give myself to his beast.As long as it made him feel better."What the hell happened to you?" Koralie yelled, brows furrowed as she sat next to me on the couch, her gaze trailing across the wounds on my arms and legs.I shifted uncomfortably, adjusting my clothes, but Koralie slapped my hands off."Fuck, ouch!" I

Dane’S POVGoddess, no!I ran my hands through my hair, head spiralling, gaze fixed on her on the bed. Naked, weakened and scarred.All because of me.For three days, I had lost my sanity. Done terrible things to her. Things I'd have never imagined doing."Fuck!"I buried my head between my palms, guilt washing over me like a constant shower.The one person I had sworn to protect with my life was lying on the bed, weak from having endured everything I'd done to her in my state of insanity."Hmm…" A silent whimper left her lips. Her eyes twitched.I stood still, rigid.My mind wandered. Whether to run out of the room or to stay and face her. But how would I live with myself when she opened her eyes and saw the monster who had inflicted all those wounds on her?If so much as a flicker of fear crossed her face, I knew I wouldn't be able to live with myself.I'd be miserable."Dane?" Her soft voice called, weak but clear enough.My heart dropped to the bottom of my chest, pounding hard ag

"You're back!" Zoey mumbled from beneath the heavy weight of files stacked in front of her face as she walked into my office with Vivienne following behind, carrying nothing."I wonder why you get to take days off whenever you please." Vivienne rolled her eyes, picking a single file from the pile Zoey struggled to carry.I watched her flick through it, roll her eyes and place it back on Zoey's pile."You know you could've just helped with these, right?" Grunting, Zoey rolled her eyes before dropping them on the table with a loud thud.I exhaled.So much work to do."Well, that's your job, not mine." Vivienne sneered.She might have become a better person and taken accountability for her previous actions, but it hadn't changed her character in any meaningful way.Only that she was now a little more tolerable, having stopped being an outright bitch."Where were you off to this time?""Somewhere." I answered.

"Axel!" Charlotte cried, immediately rushing towards him.She wrapped her arms around his, crocodile tears streaming down her face embarrassingly."I'm scared, Axel." She whimpered, but before her words could land, Axel removed her arms from around him and tossed them away. She almost lost her balance.Embarrassment settled over her, but she tried to mask it by dropping to the floor and bawling her eyes out.Not even Axel was falling for her old tricks anymore.Took them long enough.The call connected as Axel put it on loudspeaker."Axel, what a surprise." My heart lurched the moment I heard Trevor's voice. I exhaled deeply.I had known they would stoop this low. I had prepared for it all, yet hearing that man's voice through the phone made my stomach drop."Come over right now." He spoke, his voice slurring."What happened?""Your precious daughter is here causing havoc. Perhaps she needs to be reminded o

"Let's get married!"Murmurs erupted from everyone gathered in the room. Their eyes widened in disbelief, gazes shifting between Dane and me.Searching for any kind of reaction from him.Perhaps waiting for him to ask if I was in my right state of mind. And heck, to hell with a right state of mind.Dane was right.No one would dare mess with me if I were wedded to him. Not Trevor. Not even Charlotte.Perhaps if I hadn't hidden it all along, Bridget would never have died. Perhaps they would no longer have the nerve to demand an apology from me after killing my grandmother.A dull but relentless ache lingered within me, but I forced my feet to stay firm on the ground.I wasn't going to let them see me weak. Not anymore."What is she talking about…" Before Fiona could finish, Dane moved closer to me, his eyes never leaving mine as he took my hands in his and squeezed gently."Are you ready?" Tho
