My Step Uncle is my Mate Chapter 71
I walked into the living room, expecting to see Daniel and my mother engrossed in their usual morning routine. But instead, I was met with a scene that made my heart skip a beat.Daniel was standing by the window, his face pale and shocked. My mother was sitting on the couch, her eyes wide with a mix of fear and confusion. And standing in the doorway, looking like a shadow from the past, was a man I had never seen before.But Daniel's reaction told me something was off. He looked like he had seen a ghost."Chase?" Daniel whispered, his voice trembling with shock.The man, Chase, took a step forward, his eyes scanning the room as if taking in every detail. "Daniel," he said, his voice low and rough from disuse.I felt like I was in a dream, unable to process what was happening. Who was this man? And why was Daniel reacting like this?My mother was the first to speak up, her voice shaking with anger. "Who are you?" she demanded, pointing at Chase. "And what's going on here?"The man’s e

As Daniel pushed open the door, we all expected to see Chase, the impostor, sitting on the bed or standing by the window. But what we saw left us all stunned.The room was empty.Completely and utterly empty.My mother's eyes scanned the room, her brow furrowed in confusion. "Where is he?" she whispered.Daniel took a step forward, his eyes scanning the space as if expecting Chase to materialize out of thin air. "I don't understand," he muttered. "He was just here."I felt a wave of panic wash over me. Where had Chase gone? Had he escaped? And why?The real Chase, who had been standing behind us, stepped forward, his eyes scanning the room. "This is impossible," he muttered. "He can't just vanish into thin air."Their words went over my head as my mind reeled with the fact that he was right here one second, and wasn’t here the next. He hadn’t left the house. His window was closed, and even if –hypothetically– he had jumped out the window, he would have sustained serious injuries becau

_Chase’s POV_I paced the tiny, dimly lit room of Laila’s cottage, my chest heaving with each ragged breath. I balled my hands in fists yo keep from slamming it into her all or furniture. The air was thick with tension, and I could feel my anger simmering just below the surface.I was fuming. I was livid."Why didn't you think this through?" I demanded, my voice low and menacing. It was a question I'd asked multiple times already, but Laila's nonchalant response only fueled my frustration."I got the facts right... mostly," she said, her tone light, almost flippant. I laughed, a humorless sound that sent a shiver down my spine."Do you have any idea what you've done?" I bellowed, my eyes bulging with rage. Laila's expression remained serene, but a hint of amusement danced in her eyes."Oh, please. I got you out of there just in time. You would've been toast," she said, her voice as calm as a summer breeze.I took a step closer, my heart pounding in my chest. "And whose fault would tha

Chase's POVI stood outside Natalie's apartment building, my eyes scanning the area for any signs of trouble. I had been watching her for days, studying her routine, and I knew she was alone tonight. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what was to come.I entered the building, my movements swift and silent. I reached Natalie's apartment door and knocked, my heart pounding in my chest.The door opened, and Natalie stood before me, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Chase!" she exclaimed, her voice husky with emotion. I smiled, trying to appear nonchalant. "Hey, Natalie. Can I come in?"Natalie stepped aside, her eyes never leaving mine. "Of course," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.From her reaction, I could tell she hadn’t heard anything suspicious, and more than it made me relieved, it made me wonder. I entered the apartment, my eyes scanning the room for any signs of danger. But it was just Natalie."Natalie, I need to talk to you about something," I said, my vo

I sat at the small café, nursing my coffee and trying to focus on Hailey's conversation. But my mind kept wandering, consumed by thoughts of Chase and the mystery surrounding him. I couldn't shake the feeling that I was missing something, that there was a piece of the puzzle that I hadn't quite grasped yet.It had been a whole week, and still no news about him. Almost like he had never existed. Like I had conjured everything up in my mind.While Daniel and my mother had fallen into a routine of getting to know Daniel’s real brother, after giving up their search for Chase, I seemed to be trapped in a whirlwind of my own emotions.It didn’t help that Daniel gave me weird glances and asked me subtle questions that suggested that I knew something.I had tried to reach Chase, but all to no avail. I had gone to his penthouse an unhealthy amount of time in the past week, but he never showed up.The silence was eating at me, and rather than getting better, I felt my heart break a little more

Pain. I felt pain all over my body like I had been run over by a speeding truck. Multiple times.I tried to open my eyes, but my lids felt very heavy. I tried to move, but I couldn’t.Taking in a deep breath of air, I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. I was in a bedroom, but it wasn't mine. The room was dimly lit, with only a sliver of light peeking through the curtains. I tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my head, making me wince. I fell back onto the pillow, trying to remember how I got there.As I struggled to recall, a scent wafted through the air, familiar yet distant. My heart skipped a beat as I recognized the smell of Chase's cologne. I tried to sit up again, this time more slowly, and that's when I saw him. He was sitting in a chair beside the bed, his eyes fixed on me with a mixture of guilt and concern.“Easy,” a deep voice said as I tried to sit up.My eyes bulged out of their sockets as I stared at the man that made me feel like I wa

I walked out of the house, feeling like I was leaving a part of myself behind. The tears I had held back in front of Chase now streamed down my face as I made my way to the bus stop. I couldn't believe I had been so blind, so trusting. The man I thought I knew was a stranger, a liar.As I waited for the bus, I couldn't shake off the feeling of betrayal. I felt like I was drowning in a sea of uncertainty, unsure of what was real and what was a lie. I thought about all the moments we had shared, all the laughter, all the whispers of sweet nothings in the dead of night. Was it all a lie?The bus arrived, and I got on, finding a seat at the back. I stared out the window, watching the world go by in a blur. My mind was a jumble of emotions, anger, sadness, and confusion. How could he do this to me? How could he lie to me like that?I thought about all the times he had held me in his arms, all the times he had comforted me at my lowest. Was it all a lie? I felt a pang of sadness, realizing

_Chase’s POV_I stared at the phone, my heart racing with anticipation. It had been days since I last saw Elodie, days since I hurt her with my lies. I couldn't shake off the feeling of guilt, of regret. I had to make it right.Last night, I could hold myself back. It felt like my wolf was going to rip out of me and go in search of her.I had been miserable without her.After seeing her again, even just for a little while, after taking in her scent again, I knew I had to be with her no matter what.Then her parting words, those words struck a chord of realization inside of me that made me realize what I’d been feeling for her all these while.I loved Elodie.I took a deep breath and dialed her number, my fingers trembling with anxiety. The phone rang, and I closed my eyes, praying she would answer."Hello?" her voice was hesitant, unsure."Elodie," I whispered, my voice cracking with emotion.There was a pause, and for a moment, I thought she would hang up. But then she spoke, her voi

My Step Uncle is my Mate Chapter 164
I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my reflection. My 21st birthday, and I felt like a whale. Seven months pregnant, and I was huge. I puffed out a sigh, running my hands over my swollen belly, as I was told to expect popping soon since my babies had Alpha growth.Pups, they called them."I look like a hippopotamus," I muttered, feeling tears prick at the corners of my eyes.Chase appeared behind me, his arms wrapping around my waist. "You're the most beautiful woman in the world," he whispered, his lips brushing against my ear.I rolled my eyes. "You're biased."Chase chuckled. "Maybe, but it's true. You're glowing, Elodie. You're perfect."I turned to face him, my eyes searching his. "You really think so?" I sniffed my tears back.Chase nodded with a boyish grin. "I do. You're carrying our child, and that makes you even more beautiful to me."I felt a lump form in my throat. Chase had been my anchor throughout this pregnancy. He'd moved his work home, spending every day with
My Step Uncle is my Mate Chapter 163
_Chase’s POV_I sat beside Elodie's hospital bed, my eyes fixed on her pale face. It had been a week since she'd been admitted, and still, she lay unconscious, her body hooked up to machines and oxygen tubes. The beeping of the monitors and the hiss of the ventilator were the only sounds that broke the silence. My heart ached with every beat, my soul torn apart by the sight of her fragile form.I reached out, taking her hand in mine, feeling the warmth of her skin, but it was a faint warmth. I’d tried to reach her wolf a number of times, but she too was very weak.It was like grasping at smoke. She was there, somewhere, deep within her, but she was weak, so weak. I poured all my energy into the connection, willing her to respond, to stir, to come back to me. But there was only silence.The hospital had provided a bed for me beside hers, and I'd spent every waking moment by her side. I woke up every morning with her hand in mine, and slept every night with her fingers intertwined with

Chapter 162_Chase’s POV_I paced back and forth in front of the barrier, my mind racing with every possible scenario, most of which I’d rather not recount lest they became real. Elodie had been in there for what felt like an eternity, and I was starting to lose my mind. I tried crossing the barrier again, but it was like running into a brick wall. I was pushed back, my body slamming against a nearby tree."Dammit!" I cursed, my fists clenched in frustration.Laila approached me. I’d seen more empathy in her eyes in the last few minutes than I’d done in my entire life, and if it were under any other circumstances, I would have laughed and asked her if she was losing her touch."Chase, calm down. You're going to hurt yourself,” she placed her hand on my shoulder, and from her misty eyes, I could tell how hard she was trying to control her tears.I turned to her, my eyes blazing with anger. "Calm down? You want me to calm down? Elodie's in there with a man who’s capable of doing……God k
My Step Uncle is my Mate Chapter 161
My mind was a jumble of emotions as I stood there, frozen in shock. But as I gazed into the face of the man before me, a memory long buried rose to the surface. I was a child again, sitting on my father's lap, listening to his deep, rumbling voice as he read me a bedtime story. His eyes sparkled with amusement, his hands making animations, and his smile was warm and gentle. I felt safe, loved, and cherished."Elodie, my little star," he whispered, his breath tickling my ear.His voice cut through the daze, and I felt like I was dreaming. I wanted to believe I was dreaming. But as I looked into his eyes, I knew it was real. He was really there, standing in front of me, unchanged since the day he...since the day he died.I stumbled backward, my mind reeling. It couldn't be. My father was dead. I had mourned him, blamed myself for his death. The pain and guilt had haunted me for years.But there he was, not a day older, not a single strand of gray hair. His eyes, his smile, everything wa

Chase's face contorted in rage, his eyes blazing with fury. "I'll never let you go in there alone!" he thundered, his voice echoing through the night. My heart broke at the desperation in his eyes, and I rushed back to him, wrapping my arms around his waist."Chase, please," I whispered, burying my face in his chest. "I'll be fine. I promise."But he was beyond reason, and his body trembled with anger. "You're not going in there!" he shouted, his voice hoarse. "I won't let you!"He lightly pushed me away, his eyes scanning the warehouse as if daring the lone wolf to come out. "You want her?" he yelled, his voice carrying across the distance. "You want my mate? Come out and face me, you coward! If you think you're man enough!"The others tried to calm him down, but Chase was unstoppable. He paced back and forth, his eyes blazing with fury, the veins on his neck and forehead pulsing so hard I feared they would erupt. I tried to reason with him, but he wasn't listening."Chase, please,"

As we stepped out of the office, the crisp night air enveloped us, carrying the scent of damp earth and the distant howl of feral wolves that made my heart squeeze painfully. "We'll need to be discreet," Chase said, his voice low. "Let's shift."I nodded, the pain momentarily giving way to a thrill of excitement. My wolf stirred within me, eager to be free. I closed my eyes, focusing on the transformation. My body began to shift, my bones snapping, my muscles stretching. My senses heightened, and my skin itched as my fur grew.But as I opened my eyes, I realized everyone was staring at me. Laila's eyes were wide with wonder, and even Gideon's gruff expression softened. I felt a flush rise to my cheeks, but Chase's gaze was the only one that mattered. His eyes shone with pride, his face radiant with awe."Elodie," he whispered, his voice husky. "You're...breathtaking."My wolf, pure white and majestic, stood tall, her fur glistening in the moonlight. I felt a surge of power, of freedo

_Chase's POV_I stared at Elodie, my jaw clenched, and I felt myself about to snap in half with frustration. How could she be so stubborn? Didn't she understand the danger?But as I looked into her eyes, I saw something that made me pause. A fierce intensity burned within them, a determination that told me she would do this with or without my permission.I recalled my conversation with Laila earlier that evening, her words echoing in my mind."Chase, we've tried everything. We've lost so many pack members. This is the only way to stop the lone wolf," she'd said, her eyes solemn."I won't risk Elodie's life," I'd growled.Laila's expression had been somber. "I understand your concerns, but we can't keep running. We need to take a stand. And Elodie...she's the key. I don’t know how, but she is."I'd rejected the idea, but now, looking at Elodie, I realized that Laila might be right.The past 24 hours had seen more pack members go feral. The lone wolf's poison was spreading, and I knew w

I woke to darkness, the silence a heavy blanket that wrapped around me. My eyes adjusted slowly, and I made out the familiar contours of our bedroom. But it was the figure sitting beside me that made my heart skip a beat.Chase.His eyes, piercing in the dim light, locked onto mine. My panic, residual from the day's events, dissipated under his gaze."Hey," I whispered softly as if speaking too loud would break whatever spell his eyes had put me under.A soft smile creased Chase's face, but his eyes told a different story. They were dark, troubled.I pushed myself up, my movements cautious, my wolf senses on high alert. Chase's gaze never wavered, his focus solely on me."Hey," he replied, his voice low, husky.I reached out, my hand brushing against his jaw. His stubble prickled my fingertips, sending shivers down my spine."Couldn't sleep?" I asked, my brow furrowing.Chase shook his head, his eyes evading mine. "Just watching you."My smile faltered, sensing something was off. "Cha
My Step Uncle is my Mate Chapter 156
_Chase’s POV_I held Elodie tight, her body trembling against mine. The room's stunned silence was a distant hum, my focus solely on my fragile mate.As the reality of what had just happened sunk in, Elodie's strength began to wane. Her legs buckled, and I swept her into my arms, cradling her like a child."Elodie, love, stay with me," I whispered, alarm coursing through my veins as her wolf grew weaker by the second.Her eyelids fluttered, her gaze unfocused. "Chase...""I'm here, baby," I replied, my voice shaking.Laila approached, her brows pinched together in concern, and her lips curled downward. "Chase, we need to—""Not now, Laila," I growled in a double voice, my wolf rising to protect our mate.Laila squinted her eyes at my tone, and I could almost hear the retort at the tip of her tongue, but she said instead, "Take care of her. We'll discuss the details later."I nodded, the pulse in my neck straining to burst, already striding out of the conference room.Elodie's head lol
