All Chapters of The Alpha's Unwanted Plus-Size Bride: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

"I am handing in my official resignation to the Whitlock Moonfang Dominion, Luna Elowen!" Stacey turned to face me after a tense silence, her fingers digging into her leather binder.My eyes widened as I pressed my palms flat against the wooden desk, my human body stiffening. "You worked through three moon cycles to earn your place in our territory’s treasury. Why discard it now over one bad audit?"Errors happen to every wolf and human in the pack, but walking away from the territory isn't the solution! Correct the ledger and keep your ground!Anxiety spiked through my chest when she remained silent. "Give me the real reason, Stacey.""I am taking a mate from the southern borders soon," she whispered, her voice laced with heavy reluctance. "He wants me grounded within the domestic den to care for the pack's next generation.""You do not even carry a pup yet!" I pushed back, the instinct to protect my own kind flaring. "You can still manage territorial accounts after taking the mate b

Lucan Blackmoor paused at the threshold of the grand hall, his dark wolf eyes narrowing as he fixed his cold gaze on me. "Here is a truth your human mind needs to accept, Elowen: some territorial bonds are simply not worth fighting for.""What are you trying to tell me, Lucan?" My chest heaved, my human heart dropping like a stone into a bottomless pit of absolute despair."I have pack matters to settle," he growled, severing the communication link before I could demand another word. I stood frozen in the alley, staring blankly at the roaring mob of angry wolves gathered outside the fortress gates.My communication crystal flared in my hand, glowing with Seren Hollowmere's signature rune. I accepted the link instantly. "Where are you right now?""Standing near the perimeter of the Alpha Dominion District!" I rasped into the crystal."Stay exactly where you are!" Seren barked over the link. "Do not let those feral pack members scent your human blood! I am coming to haul you out of ther

"If not for the stunning, silk-clad noble female standing at his side, he would have been swarmed by eager unmated wolves looking for a powerful connection," Seren murmured, her voice dripping with tension as we froze near the edge of the market square.What in the mother moon's name brought Garrick Whitlock all the way down to the coastal borders of Silver Tide Haven?The female beside him possessed a waist as slender as a reed, wrapped in a shimmering forest-green gown. She moved with effortless grace—poised, regal, yet radiating an undeniable power that commanded the attention of every passing shifter in the crowded plaza. Holding his arm with practiced ease, she looked like an absolute queen walking alongside an ancient warlord.It was obvious he had escorted her here for private pack business. Instinctively, I reached out and took Seren’s hand, my knuckles turning white as I pulled her back into the shadow of a stone archway. "Let us head back to the cottage now."Seren’s appetit

“A human who cannot even shift into a beast has no right to hold the sacred title of Luna!” Garrick Whitlock’s voice crashed through the quiet room, his heavy palm slamming down onto the sandalwood table so hard the porcelain cups rattled. “If you had an ounce of wolf pride left in your body, Elowen, you would sign the severance scrolls and leave Caelan Thorncroft before he publicly strips you of your rank.”I didn't flinch. My hand rested firmly over my swollen stomach, protecting my unborn pup from his oppressive Alpha aura. “My marriage to Caelan is none of your business, Alpha Garrick. I appreciate your concern—if that is what you call this poisonous interrogation—but keep your hands out of my life. Since we share the same bloodline, I am begging you to leave me in peace.”Without waiting for his response, I pushed myself up from the silk cushions, turning my back on the high-born elder and his pristine companion. “Thank you for the tea, Lady Celine. It is late, and my human body

“I am going back for lunch at Peakville Estate,” I state plainly, stepping away from the carriage door. “Mrs. Eriksen is already expecting me.”Garrick sneers, his sharp wolf senses locking onto the faint scent of silver-blade salve clinging to my skin. “If my guess is right, you will lose your appetite the moment you step foot inside that courtyard. After all, Caelan has been confined at the Silvermoon Grand Healing Temple in Silvermoon Capital for half a moon, and you have not shown a single spark of concern for your mated Alpha. What kind of male can tolerate such cold indifference from a human?”He steps directly into my path, his towering frame casting a dark shadow over me, his broad shoulders blocking the coastal breeze.I shift my heavy frame back, my human heart thudding against my ribs as I glare up at him. “I certainly cannot savor a meal with an Alpha who treats his own blood like an enemy.”“You can ignore my presence,” he replies, a lazy, arrogant grin touching his weath
