Married My Ex’s Alpha Uncle

Silver's

POV

hospital, probably wondering where I was.

"Are you sure this is a good idea?" Rebecca asked as she sat cross-legged on my bed. She was watching me warily as I roamed across the room. When my phone was at a decent charge, I called her and told her that I had gone home. I completely forgot she was at the She came over right away once I told her where I was.

"Shirley told me that they were mates; I'm not sure what else to do," I muttered, giving her a pointed look.

Once I was alone in my room, I cried all that I could. I only stopped crying once Rebecca showed up and even now, my eyes were puffy and filled with moisture. I just felt so numb and out of it, I wanted this pain to stop already.

"But what if she was lying?" She asked, her brows pinched together.

"And if she wasn't?" I asked in return. "I don't want to be the reason to come between them. I feel stupid enough to be put in this position. He's been hanging around her so much lately that this is the only thing that makes sense. He will barely touch me, Rebecca. Do you have any idea how that makes me feel?"

"Oh, Hun," Rebecca said, standing to her feet. "I'm so sorry."

I nodded and gave her a sad smile as I grabbed some more of my clothing and took it to the suitcase that sat on my bed.

"Are you sure that you don't mind if I crash with you?" I asked her.

She gave me a strange look.

"Of course not; but I live in your father's pack. Are you sure you're okay with that?" She asked.

I nodded and licked my lips.

"I'll have to be," I muttered. "I don't really have a choice right now. The worst part is I'm going to have to tell my father about this if I want to stay in his territory for the time being."

She nodded and wrapped her arms around me, pulling me in for a tight embrace.

She glanced at her phone, and I could see the worry lines creasing in her eyes.

"My cousin, Marco, will be here any minute. Did you tell the guards that we were expecting him?" She asked.

I nodded; a nervous pit filled my stomach.

Marco was a lawyer, a very famous

and talented lawyer. Even though he

technically lived in my father's

still

territory with his family, he was used amongst different packs. Rebecca called him on my behalf earlier asking him for a huge favor.

As if on cue, there was a knock on my bedroom door. I looked at Rebecca who gave me a reassuring and yet kind of sad smile. I nodded at her and took a deep breath before walking to the door and opening it.

One of the maids stood before me; she kept her head lowered like I was some prized possession that she couldn't even look directly at. I didn't let it bother me though; I stood and waited for her to tell me her message. "Luma, your guest has arrived. He's waiting downstairs, being screened by the gammas," she announced.

I smiled my thanks to her and motioned for Rebecca to follow me out of the room and down the stairs.

Walking down the grand stairs, I saw Marco standing in the middle of the foyer being searched for by the gamma warriors.

"He's all clear,' one of them said as he stepped back.

"Marco," I greeted as I took the last step.

He gave me a painfully handsome smile, revealing the dimples in his cheeks. The family resemblance between Marco and Rebecca. They both had the same silver eyes and freckles around their noses. Marco had dark hair and olive skin though and Rebecca had blonde hair and fair skin.

Marco was once married and had two kids with his wife, but he got divorced a couple of years ago and now has joint custody of the kids.

"Silver, it's good to see you again,"

Marco said, dosing the distance to give me a tight hug. I missed this; Marco was always like a brother- me, and was grateful for his protection and friendship. He glanced at Rebecca and smiled. "Becky," he greeted.

She groaned at the nickname he used for her.

"Don't call me that, Marco. You know I hate that," she muttered, folding her arms across her chest.

This only made him laugh as he released me and pulled her into a hug.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

"I've been so busy with work lately that I barely got time to see you," he murmured, hugging her even tighter. "I missed you, Cousin."
