Rachelle grinned brightly at her son's excited reaction while little Crown Prince Claudian V clapped his tiny hands repeatedly inside her arms.

"See?" she said proudly before turning toward us. "Even Cloudy agrees."

The little prince nodded enthusiastically despite clearly not understanding the full conversation. "Go see Grandmama!"

I almost choked.

Meanwhile, Enoch looked one sentence away from fainting. "Wait—" he started weakly. "We can actually go there?"

"Of course," Rachelle replied casu

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 178: The Wedding I Deserved

    Two weeks had passed. It was remarkable how much life could change in merely fourteen days.The Waevalon Kingdom no longer whispered about attempted assassinations. No one spoke of trade negotiations or House of Valmere's downfall in hushed voices behind fans and champagne glasses.The trials had begun shortly after Marcelo and Seraphine's arrest. Their crimes against the Crown, the Caelthorn Trade House, and the Waevalon Kingdom had become impossible to deny once the royal military finished presenting the evidence Lucretius and Enoch had painstakingly gathered. The confessions, financial records, testimonies, and correspondence spoke louder than any defense ever could.Justice had finally begun doing what grief never could. It allowed people to breathe again.As for me, I had stopped counting how many mornings I had awakened without reliving the past first. There were no more dreams of betrayal. No more wondering whether footsteps outside my bedroom belonged to an assassin. No more w

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 177: My Closest Friend

    The silence between us stretched until it almost became tangible. Neither of us spoke.Neither of us looked away.The man standing behind those iron bars searched my face as though desperately trying to place a memory that refused to belong to him. Perhaps, there had once been a time when that gaze would've made my heart race.When I would've mistaken his attention for affection... When a single smile from him could have brightened my entire day... Now, I simply looked back.Without resentment. Without longing. Without love.It was a strangely liberating realization.The heavy iron gate closed behind us with a deep metallic clang. The sound echoed throughout the detention grounds before gradually fading into silence. Only then did I realize I had been holding my breath.I heaved out a sigh. The cool evening breeze brushed against my face, carrying with it the familiar scent of pine drifting from the forests surrounding the Golden Eclipse territory. It washed away the stale air of the

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 176: Once Loved

    The path leading toward the eastern detention grounds stretched quietly beneath the afternoon sun. Unlike the livelier sections of the Golden Eclipse Pack, this part of the territory remained almost unnaturally silent. The training fields had long since disappeared behind us, replaced instead by towering pines whose branches swayed gently whenever the wind wandered through them.The only sound accompanying us was the steady rhythm of our footsteps against the stone pathway.My fingers remained comfortably intertwined with Lucretius'. Or rather... he refused to let go. Not that I minded. His hand had always felt like home.For several minutes, neither of us spoke. The silence between us wasn't awkward. It rarely ever was. It simply existed, allowing each of us to become lost in our own thoughts without feeling the need to fill every quiet moment with conversation.Eventually, I glanced sideways. Lucretius hadn't looked away from the path ahead once. His expression remained calm. I smil

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 175: Familiarity Bond

    "Long live Alpha Lucretius!""Long live Luna Euphyllia!"The voices rose together until they became one.The cry echoed across the entirety of the Golden Eclipse Pack, rolling over the castle walls and spilling into the surrounding forests where even the birds startled into flight. It wasn't merely applause or celebration. It was a vow, spoken by hundreds of wolves who had gathered within the castle grounds to witness the completion of the Luna Ceremony.The ceremony itself had passed in a blur. The ceremonial vows. The blessing beneath the Moon Goddess' altar. The ancient rites that had welcomed every Luna before me.Then, the final blood pact.I had barely recovered from the warmth that spread through my chest when our blood touched the sacred stone before the entire merupted into celebration.Now, standing beside Lucretius upon the grand terrace overlooking the assembled pack, I found myself momentarily speechless.Below us stretched a sea of familiar faces where warriors wearing t

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 174: Going Home to Another Place

    The carriage ride from the capital to the Golden Eclipse Pack would take five hours.Five hours.Not days.Not weeks.Just five hours.And yet, from the way Enoch stood outside the Caelthorn residence that morning with his arms folded across his chest and the most dramatic expression I had ever seen on his face, anyone would have thought I was being sent across the continent.I stared at him. He stared back and sighed loudly.I narrowed my eyes. "Brother."He sighed again. Even louder this time.Beside me, Lucretius looked suspiciously entertained while pretending to inspect the carriage. Father stood a few steps away, watching the scene unfold with the quiet amusement of a man who had no intention of saving me.Traitors.All of them.Enoch finally looked away first, though he did it with the expression of someone who had been gravely wronged by fate itself. "So this is it," he muttered.I blinked. "What?""My little sister is finally leaving the Caelthorn residence."I stared at him

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 173: My Idiot

    The Caelthorn residence had never felt this peaceful.The afternoon had long since melted into evening, leaving the sky painted in shades of amber and violet beyond the gallery overlooking the estate gardens. Lanterns had already been lit throughout the courtyard below, their warm glow illuminating servants as they busied themselves preparing tonight's dinner.Father had insisted upon a small celebration. Nothing extravagant. Nothing befitting nobles.Just family.After everything that had happened, he claimed the household deserved at least one evening where nobody spoke of investigations, politics, or treason.For once, I intended to listen.A crystal wine glass rested comfortably between my fingers as I leaned back against the broad warmth of my husband's chest. His arms circled my waist lazily from behind, one hand resting possessively over my stomach while the other held his own glass of red wine.Neither of us had spoken for several minutes.We simply watched.Below us, servants

    Before the advancement ceremony for the military soldiers who had been promoted, we held the mourning ceremony for our lost soldiers.It was brief, solemn, and heavy with the kind of silence that pressed against the chest. Names were read where some unfamiliar, others spoken with a pause that betra

    "Lady Euphyllia, you haven't eaten yet."His voice came from the doorway, as though afraid that even sound might bruise me.I didn't turn.The wind outside my balcony was louder than I remembered, clawing at the stone railings, tugging at the curtains like restless fingers. Below, the cliffs stretc

    The taste of him still lingered faintly on my tongue when Lucretius finally carried me back onto his lap, his arm caging me, my face resting on his chest as if I belonged nowhere else. My cheeks were flaring and my lips swollen after that. His praise from earlier softly echoed on my head like a bro

    The faint morning light spilled through the curtains when I stirred awake. My body was heavy, but my thoughts were heavier. My chest felt so tight from crying to exhaustion last night. My last clear memory I had was the cruel laughter, Redmund's cold words, Lilith's malicious acting... and then...
