Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle by Aurora Starling

"Baby, please don't be mad at me," he said, lowering himself to his knees in front of me. "I love you so much and I just wanted you to be mine... officially.' "Was marrying you not enough?"

He raised his brows.

"Is that what you are worried about?" He asked me, seemingly puzzled. "Marking me? You don't have to mark me back. The bond will still work either way."

I shook my head as tears spilled from my eyes.

I did this in the way that I did. But I'm not sorry to claim you. I'm not sorry to brand you as mine. My wolf is content now and that makes me happy. I know your wolf feels left out, but she doesn't have to because whether she is here or not, she is ours as well. My wolf didn't just mark you, but her as well. He might not have met her yet, but he's already in love with her and that's a crazy feeling for me to have. I just found
