Claimed And Marked By Her Stepbrother Mates novel Chapter 735

Chapter 735: 735-Mating Was A Sin On Mate Full Moon Night

Author’s POV:

"Darcy, what’s wrong?" Her husband, Lord McQuoid, entered the room. They had gotten married just a few months ago. Although wars were happening outside their packs, they still managed to keep their relationship strong. The two had been fated mates for a very long time. They were also high school sweethearts too.

Darcy came from a large pack. Her father was an alpha king, whereas Lord McQuoid had only been the alpha of a much smaller pack on the verge of collapse. Though the land was rich, it bordered the most dangerous part of the rogue community. Whatever monsters lurked there were bound to destroy it eventually. They had already gathered the remaining pack members and moved them to Darcy’s father’s territory. Her father had since transferred his crown to Lord McQuoid, making him the new alpha king.

"You’ve been quiet for a while," Lord McQuoid said as he reached her, gently placing a hand on her shoulder. And he wasn’t wrong. She had been unusually silent.

But Lord McQuoid didn’t have to wait for an answer. He glanced over her shoulder and saw what she was holding. It was a pregnancy test.

She slowly lifted her head, eyes brimming with tears.

"Darcy, no," he whispered, already looking devastated by the news.

"But why not? We were trying so hard. Look—it finally happened," she said, standing up quickly to hold his hands. She could sense the panic in his eyes.

"But Darcy, we’re not supposed to conceive on the mate full moon night. You know it’s cursed. It’s not something to celebrate," Lord McQuoid warned her, reminding her that one mistake could bring great consequences.

"Who says it’s a cursed night?" she asked.

"The Moon Goddess. Don’t we know that?"

"But people celebrate this night with dinners and parties," Darcy argued, trying to reassure him. To her, it felt like a blessed night. They had tried to conceive before without success. But the moment he climaxed inside her on the mate full moon night, she got pregnant. To her, it was a divine sign.

"Darcy, people celebrate it so they don’t have time to mate. It’s only a few hours, and we couldn’t even control ourselves during that short window," Lord McQuoid hissed, stepping away from her and pacing the room. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

He didn’t want to bring up how she had gotten him drunk that night just so they could sleep together. If he had been sober, he wouldn’t have gone through with it. But he also knew that reminding her of this would only make her cry again like she always did when confronted. She had been spoiled all her life, a daddy’s princess, and always got her way.

"You’re not getting it. How can it be a cursed night if it gave us a child? Every doctor said I could never conceive. They said it would be nearly impossible, but look, that night made it happen. Doesn’t that mean something?" she argued, her voice sharper now.

He stared at her, his heart aching. The child growing inside her was his, and calling it a curse over and over was tearing him apart.
