All Chapters of Divorcing My Alpha Husband For His Uncle: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

~Alaric“There needs to be a need to build a larger Silo for grains—” An elder rambled on for the past thirty minutes, and I tuned him out, leaning into my chair with my head propped up against my fist and my elbow braced on the arm of the chair, letting him talk while nodding like I was listening. But I wasn't. Barely. My eyes were fixed somewhere in the middle of the hall past the man currently droning on about grain reserves, and my mind was three places at once, none of which involved grains.These past few days without Althea had been stressful, for both my wolf and me. We had serious work done and about to do.I'd stationed four of my most trusted maids in Althea's quarters before she left, keeping her rooms occupied and moving. They left the lights on at the right hours, meals ordered and returned, so that anyone watching from outside would assume she was still here.And I also was running the guard deaths over in my head instead of listening to grain projections.Luckily, w

~SeraI shifted on my feet, eyeing whatever was going on here, but I said nothing.Gods… I really didn't come here to watch a grown woman heave blood into a bowl, but I kept my face stoic and my mouth shut. Keeping every snide comment in check.She retched again, and I turned away, scrunching my nose, and the sound of it hitting the container made me gag.Oh mother, what did you put me into? I turned to her again, almost failing to hide my disgust. What a weak Luna.Her face had gotten paler, and I almost rolled my eyes when I caught sight of her eyes; of course she's deformed. Mother didn't mention that.Tsk.. tsk.. tsk…I almost smirked at the sheer irony of it. A blind Luna married to a man obsessed with having an heir to the extent of seeking out countless breeders.Poetic. But in a sad, pathetic sort of way.She straightened slowly, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand, and turned her face toward me with an accuracy that shouldn't have been possible for someone who couldn't

~SeraHis room was bigger than I expected. Decorated with dark wood and heavy furniture. It was the kind of space that made you remember who you were talking to the second you walked in.Even his candles were fancy. Tsk. Show off.I hovered near the door, wringing my hands, as I let my shoulders fall. "I do—don't know if it's my place to say this," I said, keeping my voice small and uncertain."Speak." He ordered, his tone leaving no room for arguments. "Nobody will harm you here. Not even me."My gaze dropped, darting around while my fingers pulled at my shirt sleeve, aiming to look distraught, and then I dropped straight to my knees in a soft thud, my palms planted on the floor."Your kindness knows no bounds, Alpha," I praised, head bowed so low it was nearly touching the ground. "But a breeder like me, kneeling in front of you, I'm not even worthy of speaking in your presence."I could feel him getting irritated above me, then his weight shifted, and his breathing sharpened. Good

~AltheaI stiffened at that voice. Then the guards parted, and I was standing face to face with Vespera.Oh Goddess. What was she doing here?I instantly schooled my face, despite the full-blown panic I was feeling inside. "Who are you talking about?"She chuckled darkly, clearly not buying a single word of it as she stepped fully into the room, folding her arms."What is she talking about?" Halter asked, his eyes moving between us, sharp and impatient.My heart was slamming so hard against my ribs I was convinced the whole hallway could hear it, a steady, rapid thud, thud, thud under my skin. I kept my hands loose at my sides, with my face carefully blank, without letting my eyes dart toward the exit too obviously. "Her." Vespera pointed directly at me, her lips curling slowly. "I've been visiting my uncle for weeks now, as you wouldn’t know. And one of the guards mentioned there was an extra breeder nobody could place, where she came from. No record, no family claim, just appeared

~AlaricThis place was a shithole.That was the first thought that came to my mind while walking through the gates, and it didn't improve the deeper I went. People were running in every direction, like they were being chased by something, and their terrified screams pierced the already tense atmosphere. Goddess, what a joke of a pack this was.I pushed forward with my men; the troop I sent to watch over Althea from afar had already done some damage before we arrived, so I scanned everything carefully, taking notes of the dead soldiers littered around.This would teach him not to mess with Darkmoor.I walked in further and found three court maids on the ground near the courtyard with cuts on their bodies that looked fresh, and instinctively, I wrapped my hand around the hilt of my sword.Just when I was about to give out orders to my men, a howl split the air somewhere around us, and I paused, my grip on my sword tightening. The howl came again, sounding pained, settling within me wro
