Semua Bab Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle: Bab 31 - Bab 40

~AltheaThey both turned to me at the same time, Nolan's pissed-off expression changing the moment he saw me, and being replaced by what looked like calculation behind his eyes.I gave him a fleeting look before locking eyes with Alaric, whose hands were still bunched in Nolan's collar, his jaw so tight it looked like it hurt."Please, excuse us," I requested quietly. "I'll talk to him."Alaric let go of Nolan immediately, shooting me a fierce look before crossing over to me in three steps, positioning himself between us without even thinking about it."No," he exclaimed, his eyes filled with finality like that was the end of it."Alaric," I reasoned with a low voice meant for just his ears, hoping he'd trust me in this, "There's an empty room right there, and you'll be right outside the door. If he tries anything, anything at all, I'll scream, and you'll hear me."So many unreadable emotions crossed his face. I held his steel gaze unwavering, even though my heart was slamming so hard

~Nolan"WHO THE FUCK BROUGHT ME HERE?!"My blood boiled as I threw everything on the side table to the ground in a fit of rage; the ceramic mug shattered, and the tray clanged loudly against the floor.I was on my feet in seconds, pulling at the sheets they used in covering me, with my chest heaving and eyes wild, scanning the unfamiliar room.Darkmoor. I'm still at goddamn Darkmoor. So they brought me to their fucking infirmary?!The realization hit me like a bucket of ice water and then immediately turned into something burning under my skin.I clenched my fists beside me so hard my knuckles went white, and I stood there in the middle of that room shaking with compressed fury.Then the pain hit me all of a sudden, like someone had driven a sharp knife directly through the center of my skull, a splitting pain so sudden and violent that it made my vision go completely white.What the hell..?I staggered backward, hitting something, and one hand shot out for the bedpost, gripping it ha

~AlaricMy hand was already around his throat before he realized I'd moved. One second I was sitting in that chair watching him utter those words, and the next I had him by the neck against the wall, and the look on Nolan's face as the color drained from it was the first thing in the last several hours that had felt even remotely satisfying.His mouth had just formed her name into that despicable sentence, and that was all it took. He'd barely even finished the words- that snide, careless remark about whether she'd died- and something in me that was already on edge just broke, bypassing every rational thoughts I had, and now I was standing here with my forearm pressed to his throat watching his eyes bulge, while also trying to locate the part of myself that was supposed to care about that.But I couldn't find it. My wolf was completely silent. So, this one was all me.I stared at him for a moment, genuinely surprised at my own reaction, and then I reached for a fact that made all this

~Althea"Caiden." My voice came out rough and barely there, but it came out nonetheless, and that alone eased out the knot in my chest.Caiden looked up from the chair immediately, and before I could say anything else, he was already at the door."Doctor! She's awake!" He yelled into the corridor before returning to me.I lay there blinking at the ceiling while the room filled with movement. The doctor rushed in, checking me over expertly, asking questions I answered as best as I could, since my head was throbbing really hard and painfully.After some minutes, he declared me fine, said he'd be back with medicine, and left.Caiden dropped back into the chair and stared at me for a moment. "I thought you weren't waking up," he confessed lightly.The memories came back to me in a rush, and I let them set in: the corridor, the black blood, the maid's blank face, and then I opened my mouth and took a deep inhale before saying a word. I wasn't even sure if what I said made any sense, but he

~Althea"Shut up!" I snapped, "Take your trash, leave my pack, and let me deal with my people myself.”Then I got closer, invading her space as a small smile pulled at my lip. "Oh, I'm sorry. You wouldn't understand what that means, would you?" I tilted my head slightly in fake pity. "Because you're not even Luna."The air around us tensed as Vespera's nostrils flared in anger. Her brows twisted, and her hands fisted at her sides, with her shoulders bunched upwards. That softness she'd been wearing since peeled back completely, and was replaced with something uglier.Ahhh, there she is."You dare speak to me like that?!!" she screeched, all her acts dropping instantly as she let her ugly personality show."I just did," I said simply, shrugging. "Now, let me remind you of something," I placed a palm on her shaking shoulder. "You're standing on my grounds right now. Not Darkmoon's. Not yours. Mine. And whatever authority you think you're carrying through that gate with you, you can take
