All Chapters of Claimed by My Ex's Alpha King Uncle: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

"Aurelia…" Dane broke the long minutes of silence that had stretched since the beginning of the drive, turning to get my attention."Hm…?""We've successfully placed Bridget to rest. I'm sure she's in a much better place now." He spoke, choosing his words carefully, his eyes focused on mine without wavering.But my chest heaved for reasons I was scared to mention.Reasons I had always known would one day come, but hadn't prepared my heart for."I believe we should commence with the wedding."The sentence finally fell, each word like a heavy bomb detonating in my chest.It was bound to happen. We were mates. After all, I had been the one to make the proposal to him in the first place, and he had agreed without hesitation.He had done nothing but support me, even before I had made the proposal, proving himself over and over again.But why did my heart sink at the thought of it? The wedding."Dane…""Is there something bothering you?" He asked. "Something you're not telling me?"Like a b

Aurelia's POV"Is it me or is it hot in here?" I fanned my palm across my face, hoping to cool the heat burning my cheeks.Bowen glanced through the rearview mirror. "I'll increase the air con.""Thank you." I muttered.My face was still flushed from the memories of my intense moment with Dane. So intense that I wondered if I was the same girl who had been dishevelled over her family issues barely an hour before.Ever since I had come to understand the bond I shared with Dane, my body had completely changed.Craving him more than ever.Feeling every part of him even more intensely.A kiss feeling like a thousand butterflies dancing in my stomach, always wanting more of him.It was all too much, but I loved every bit of it.If Tyson hadn't interrupted, I would have spent the next few hours exploring my darkest fantasies with him.But what could have been so urgent?The warmth in my cheeks subsided as the memory of Tyson's stoic face and the shift in Dane's aura flashed through my mind.

My gaze fell on Koralie, walking into my apartment with her brows knitted, her eyes darting between the fuming Amelia and me.Amelia withdrew her hand, taking a few steps back. But the rage on her face couldn't be concealed. Without a word, she walked out of the apartment, forcing Koralie to quickly step aside at the door."Who the fuck was that?" Koralie asked, peeking her head outside to get another look."A friend…" The lie tasted bitter on my lips."Oh, really?" She rolled her eyes. "That interaction doesn't look very friendly to me.""Let it go.""Hell no!" Koralie yelled. "A threat was just inside your apartment and you want me to let it go?"I knew Koralie wasn't going to drop it. She never did.She was always quick to defend me against anyone she perceived as a threat. But if she kept pushing, I would have no choice but to tell her the truth about Amelia.Something I couldn't afford. Not yet."What's that in your hand?" I asked, changing the subject as I reached for the paper

Aurelia’S POV"Where am I?" I cried out, heart racing like a drum.I couldn't move.The last thing I could remember was trying to drive out of the parking lot when a heavy hand clamped against my face and everything went dark.Everything was still dark — only now I could feel the presence of more than one person surrounding me.The hairs on my skin rose as I screamed for help, yet could only hear the sound of my own voice echoing."Let me go!" I yelled, a hint of pleading bleeding into the words. Begging for mercy.Heavy footsteps approached me, thudding raggedly on what sounded like a concrete floor as my wolf paced restlessly within me.Whoever was approaching stood right in front of me now, silent, yet goosebumps spread across my skin the moment their heavy breath fell on me.I swallowed.I could feel their hands reaching out for me as I shook in my seat, yet no matter how much I moved, the ropes held me perfectly still.Their hands held my trembling head, loosening whatever had be

"No!" Amelia's screams could be heard from outside the hall. "She will never be the Luna…" Her voice faded.Leaving just Dane and the sound of my thudding heart.I froze on the spot, eyes looking straight into his, holding nothing but complete seriousness. His gaze wandered over mine and with each passing second, a crease formed at the corner of his eyes."Dane… I…""Marry me, Aurelia." He repeated, his voice steady while his chest rose and fell rapidly."I…""What is it, Aurelia?" He asked, his breath shaky. "Don't you want to be with me?""It's not that, Dane.""Then WHAT IS IT?" His tone sharpened and for the first time since he'd asked the question, he shifted his gaze away.Staring blankly at a distant point, eyes reddened but not just with anger. Something else floated beneath it. Sadness."Why didn't you tell me, Aurelia?" He spoke, nostrils flaring."I couldn't.""For heaven's sake, why didn't you tell me that Amelia was after you?" He yelled. "Why would you keep something lik
