DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 75
The tension snapped like a breaking wire.“We’ve got a problem!” Aiden’s voice cut through the chaos, and when I turned, he was holding an unconscious wolf in his arms. Blood soaked the side of her neck, stark against her pale fur. The sight sent a fresh wave of fury crashing through me.“Who’s still standing?” I barked, scanning the wolves around me. Most were battered, their eyes wide with fear, but their heads were still high. They were ready for whatever came next—or at least they wanted to look like they were.“I am,” Zane said, stepping up beside me. “What’s the plan?”I didn’t have one, not yet. The creature’s explosion had left us scattered and shaken, and Gideon’s taunting laughter still lingered like smoke in the air. We had to regroup, but every second we waited felt like giving him more ground.“Zane, get her to the med tent,” I said, gesturing toward the injured wolf. “Aiden, take whoever’s still able and form a perimeter. If Gideon sends more of those things—”“They won’

The first scream cut through the air like a blade.I turned, heart pounding, to see Aiden dragging himself out of the trees, his face pale and blood streaking down his side. His breaths came in short, desperate gasps as he collapsed to his knees.“They’re here,” he choked out.The camp erupted into motion. Wolves darted toward him, their movements sharp with panic, but I was already moving, pushing past them to reach him.“Aiden!” I dropped to his side, gripping his arm. “What happened? Who’s here?”“They ambushed us,” he rasped, his voice barely audible over the growing commotion. “It’s not just hunters. It’s—” He coughed, blood flecking his lips. “It’s Elijah’s enforcers. They’ve joined with Gideon.”The words hit me like a physical blow. Elijah and Gideon—two forces I had never imagined working together—had allied. And now, they were here.“Where’s the perimeter team?” I demanded, my voice sharp.Aiden’s eyes flickered with pain and regret. “Gone. They didn’t stand a chance.”I sto

Elijah struck first.The blow sent Gideon flying into the nearest tree with a crack that reverberated through the clearing. Gideon crumpled to the ground but rolled to his feet almost instantly, his grin intact even as blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.“Is that all you’ve got?” Gideon taunted, his voice laced with mockery.Elijah didn’t respond. He lunged again, his movements a blur, and their collision sent a shockwave rippling through the air. Bark exploded from the trees as they clashed, each strike faster and more brutal than the last.“Annabel!” Zane’s voice snapped me back to reality. He grabbed my arm, yanking me toward the treeline. “We have to move!”I wrenched free, my gaze locked on the fight unfolding before us. “If we don’t end this here, it’s over! He’ll kill us all!”“And if we stay, we’ll die in the crossfire,” Zane shot back, his tone fierce.My mind raced, torn between retreating with the pack and taking the one chance we might have to stop Elijah. The wol

“Elijah, stop!” My voice was swallowed by the guttural roar erupting from him.His form twisted violently, flesh warping into something unrecognizable. Black veins spread across his body, pulsing with a sinister energy. His eyes, glowing with a feral light, locked onto Gideon, who stood frozen, his blade still slick with Elijah’s blood.“This isn’t natural,” Zane murmured, gripping his weapon tighter. His usually steady hands were trembling. “He’s becoming something else entirely.”Gideon took a cautious step back, his usual arrogance replaced with something closer to wariness. “Annabel, if you’ve got any brilliant ideas, now would be the time.”Elijah snarled, his voice guttural and fragmented, as though layered with something inhuman. “You wanted power, Gideon. Let me show you what it looks like.”He moved faster than I thought possible, a shadow of fury and claws. Gideon barely dodged, the ground splitting beneath Elijah’s strike. Debris flew in every direction, and I threw up my a

The sound of distant howls shattered the fragile silence left in Elijah’s wake.I turned to Zane, who was already scanning the tree line, his posture tense. Aiden limped toward us, his face pale but determined. “The enforcers—they’re regrouping. If they’re smart, they’ll hit us hard before we can recover.”“Then we don’t let them regroup,” I said, wiping blood from my face. My mind was racing, trying to calculate our dwindling odds.“They’ve got the numbers,” Zane said, his voice tight. “And we’re barely holding together as it is.”Gideon chuckled from behind us, his blade resting casually on his shoulder. “This is the part where you either fight smart or die dumb. Guess which one Elijah chose?”I spun to face him, my anger barely restrained. “You’re awfully smug for someone who just watched his grand plan fail.”Gideon raised an eyebrow. “Fail? Elijah’s out of the picture, isn’t he? Seems like a win to me.”“Except you didn’t kill him!” I snapped. “You let him escape into whatever he

I saw it in Zane’s eyes before he said anything—the ground under our feet was already crumbling.“They’re regrouping,” he muttered, gripping his sword. His knuckles were white.“We don’t have enough left to hold them,” Aiden added, limping to my side. Blood smeared his face. He swayed slightly but stayed on his feet.“Then we don’t hold them.” My voice came sharper than I intended. “We push back, hard enough that they don’t get up again.”“You think that’s an option?” Zane shot back, his voice cutting through the chaos behind us. “Elijah’s—whatever he’s become—left us wide open. We’ve already lost half our people, Annabel.”My chest tightened, but I couldn’t let them see it. “Losing isn’t an option. Not now.”“Then we need more than desperation,” Gideon interjected, stepping out of the shadows like he hadn’t just left us to fend for ourselves. He looked far too clean for someone in the middle of a warzone. “I can get us that edge, but it’ll cost you.”“I’m done with your games,” I sna

Elijah lunged at Gideon with inhuman speed. I barely had time to react before the two collided, their clash sending a shockwave through the battlefield. Wolves scrambled to get out of the way, some tripping over fallen bodies in their haste.Gideon twisted, dodging Elijah’s claws, and drove his blade into Elijah’s chest. It sank deep but didn’t stop him. Elijah’s hand shot out, grabbing Gideon by the throat and slamming him into the ground.“You always underestimated me,” Elijah snarled, his voice reverberating with unnatural power. “That was your first mistake.”I moved without thinking. My blade caught Elijah’s arm, forcing him to release Gideon. He turned to me, eyes blazing.“You’re really going to challenge me, Annabel? After everything I’ve done for you?”“Everything you’ve done for me?” I repeated, my grip tightening on the hilt of my sword. “You’ve destroyed this pack. You’ve turned us into nothing but pawns in your game for power.”His laugh was low and dark. “And yet, here y

Zane’s yell snapped me out of my thoughts. “Annabel! Move!”I turned, barely dodging a blade aimed for my side. The rogue lunged again, his face a mixture of fury and desperation. His attacks were wild but strong, driving me back step by step.“Is this loyalty to Elijah or a bid for survival?” I asked, sidestepping another swing.He didn’t answer. His only reply was the grinding sound of his blade dragging across mine as I blocked him.From the corner of my eye, I saw Gideon lock eyes with another wolf, one of Elijah’s closest allies. They circled each other, each waiting for the other to make the first move. Zane, battered but relentless, tore into the fray, keeping the fight away from our injured.The pack was hanging on by threads. Elijah’s retreat had left a vacuum, and no one trusted anyone anymore. Even now, allies glanced at each other with suspicion. This fight wasn’t just about who held power—it was about who would live long enough to claim it.The rogue pressed forward, his

Damian hit the ground hard, the impact jarring every bone in his body. His wolf surged forward, dulling the pain as he rolled to his side, instinctively shielding Annabel. Dust swirled around them, choking the air.“Damian,” Annabel croaked, gripping his arm.“I’m here,” he said, helping her sit up. She was bruised but alive. Relief flooded him for a fleeting moment before the sound of footsteps—calm, deliberate—drew his attention.Elijah emerged from the shadows, his figure illuminated by a faint glow emanating from strange markings on the cavern walls. His confidence radiated like a predator circling its prey.“You’re persistent,” Elijah said, his voice low and measured. “But persistence without power is just stubbornness.”Damian rose to his feet, his claws already extending. “You talk too much.”Elijah tilted his head, unbothered. “And you’re too impulsive. That’s why you’ll lose.”Annabel struggled to stand, leaning against Damian for support. “You don’t need me to stop him,” she
DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 189
The sound of Elijah’s laughter echoed through the darkness of the collapsed cave. It taunted Damian as he tried to focus on Annabel’s weak breathing. His wolf senses adjusted to the pitch-black surroundings, honing in on the faint heartbeat that kept him grounded.“Elijah!” Damian’s voice was raw, a command that ricocheted off the rocky walls. “Face me!”The only response was the steady drip of water from somewhere deeper within the cavern.“Damian,” Annabel whispered, her voice a frail thread. “Don’t—”He knelt beside her, carefully loosening the ropes that bound her wrists. “We’re getting out of here,” he said firmly. “Stay with me.”“You don’t understand.” Her eyes fluttered open, dim but focused. “This is what he wanted. He’s not here to fight. He’s here to break you.”Damian stilled, her words striking something deep within him. But before he could respond, the ground beneath them trembled, a reminder of the unstable cavern.“Then he failed,” Damian growled. “Because I’m not givi
DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 188
The forest stood still in the aftermath of Elijah’s escape, the silence almost mocking. Damian stared at the empty space where Elijah had disappeared with Annabel, his breathing uneven. His claws dug into the dirt, his body trembling with the effort to hold back the wolf clawing for dominance. Kara staggered forward, clutching her injured side, but her gaze never left Damian.“Damian,” she rasped, her voice tight with pain. “We can still track him.”He didn’t answer. The pack around them waited, the weight of his next decision pressing like a storm ready to break.“Track him?” Damian’s voice was low, almost too calm. He turned to Kara, his eyes alight with fury. “Do you think he’s stupid enough to leave a trail we can follow?”“We can try,” she shot back. “Sitting here won’t help her!”Damian’s snarl silenced her, but it wasn’t just anger; it was despair. He ran a hand through his hair, pacing in circles like a predator in a cage. Finally, he turned to his second-in-command, Jacob.“S
DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 187
Damian’s growl echoed through the silent room. His fists slammed against the worn oak table, splintering its edge. "You let him get inside your head?" His glare bore into Annabel, who still looked pale and shaken from fainting. Her silence, far from submissive, was deliberate—a choice to observe before reacting."I didn’t let him do anything," she replied, her voice hoarse but steady. "Elijah’s power isn’t something you simply shut out.""Don’t defend him!" Damian’s voice cracked, a mix of fury and pain. He paced the room, hands clenching and unclenching. His wolf stirred beneath his skin, desperate for release. "Do you even know what you've done? You handed him the one thing he needed—us divided."Annabel winced. She hated that he was right. Elijah’s manipulation had left fractures between her and Damian, widening a rift that already felt unbridgeable. She drew a shaky breath, steadying herself before she spoke again."I made a mistake," she admitted, her gaze meeting his. "But I did
DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 186
Damian’s claws dug into the quarry floor, his stance protective as he stepped in front of Annabel. The beast roared again, its guttural sound echoing across the rock walls. The figure beside it moved with eerie calm, their smile never wavering as they studied the three.“Annabel,” the figure said smoothly, ignoring Damian and Elijah entirely. “I’ve been waiting to meet you.”Annabel’s heart slammed against her ribs. “Who are you?”The figure chuckled, tilting their head. “I have so many names, but for now, call me the one who holds the leash.” Their hand gestured lazily toward the beast, which snarled, saliva dripping from its jagged teeth.“Doesn’t look like you’ve got much control,” Elijah said, his voice cold. His eyes flicked to the beast’s hulking frame, scanning for weaknesses.The figure’s smile faltered for a moment before sharpening again. “It obeys enough. And when I’m done with it, it will obey her.”Annabel’s blood ran cold. “What do you mean?”The figure ignored her quest
DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 185
The beast emerged from the shadows behind the hunters, its form larger than any wolf Annabel had ever seen. Its massive shoulders brushed tree trunks as it stalked forward, its yellow eyes glowing with an unnatural light. The hunters froze, their weapons shifting uneasily in their hands.The leader cursed under his breath. “What is that thing?”Damian didn’t respond. He stepped protectively in front of Annabel, his claws extending again. Elijah’s stance mirrored his, though his eyes never left the creature as it growled, low and rumbling, shaking the air around them.“They didn’t bring it,” Elijah said quietly, his voice calm but taut. “That’s not theirs.”The scarred leader gestured sharply to his men, who reluctantly repositioned, their crossbows trained on the beast. “Stand down!” he barked at the wolves they controlled. “Focus on the target!”The controlled wolves whimpered but obeyed, forming a wary line between their masters and the newcomers. Annabel gritted her teeth, gripping

Damian’s eyes locked with Elijah’s, the air between them charged with unspoken challenges. Annabel stood in the middle, her hand raised as though it alone could stop the inevitable.“Elijah,” she said sharply, her voice cutting through their silent exchange. “We can’t do this now. Not here.”But Elijah wasn’t looking at her. His hybrid features were sharp, predatory, and utterly focused on Damian. “He’s afraid to act,” Elijah said with a calmness that made the insult sting harder. “That’s why he hesitates. He knows if he crosses me, he won’t survive.”Damian stepped forward, his tone like steel. “You’ve underestimated me before. How did that work out for you?”Annabel’s frustration boiled over. “Enough!” She turned to Damian, her expression pleading. “This isn’t the fight we need to win right now.”Damian’s jaw tightened, but he didn’t break eye contact with Elijah. “You think he can be trusted to stay in line? Look at him.”“I’m right here,” Elijah interjected, a cold smile spreading
DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 183
Damian’s shout came too late. The rogue leader’s massive jaws clamped down on empty air as Annabel twisted away at the last second, rolling to the ground. Elijah lunged, his claws slashing in an arc that forced the beast back, buying her a moment to scramble to her feet.Annabel’s breath came in short gasps. Her eyes darted to the pack, holding their line against the remaining rogues. “We can’t hold this forever,” she muttered, gripping the silver dagger she’d taken from Damian.“You don’t have to,” Elijah replied. His voice was eerily calm, but his gaze stayed locked on the rogue leader. “This ends now.”“Care to share the plan?” Damian growled, sidling up beside them. Blood streaked his face, and his sword was slick with gore.Elijah smirked, but there was no humor in it. “Keep it busy.”Damian swore under his breath. “Brilliant. Why didn’t I think of that?”Before Annabel could say anything, the rogue leader let out a guttural snarl and charged again. Damian moved instinctively, ra
DEAR EX, I AM YOUR UNCLE'S MATE Chapter 182
Damian barely dodged the blow, the rogue’s claws swiping past his ribs. He twisted, bringing his blade upward in a brutal arc that caught his opponent beneath the jaw. Blood splattered, but there was no time to celebrate the kill. Another rogue was already charging.“Elijah!” Damian yelled, blocking the next attack with a grunt. “A little help would be great!”Elijah stood motionless, his sharp eyes fixed on Annabel. She was kneeling just behind them, her shoulders rising and falling with labored breaths. Her connection to the barrier was gone, but the remnants of her effort left her pale and trembling.“She can’t hold much longer,” Elijah muttered to himself.“Neither can I!” Damian barked, shoving the rogue back with a kick.Elijah’s expression darkened, and with a low snarl, he finally moved. He intercepted the next attacker with blinding speed, slamming the rogue into the ground with a sickening crunch. His hybrid strength was terrifying, even to Damian, but right now, it was the
