Anger and disappointment toward Marsh devoured me.
When I finally found him, he was in the middle of trying on a new suit under the service of an Omega. He looked dashing, yet I wasn't in the mood to admire his charm.
A hint of unease flashed across his face as soon as he saw me, but he quickly regained his composure.
"What are you doing here?" he asked.
"I'm here to ask what you're prepping for," I cut to the chase as I had run out of patience.
He avoided my gaze, snapping, "None of your business."
"Is that so?" I sneered, "The pack tailor met up with Emily today. I heard he was making her an evening gown. What's that about?"
"Watch your tone! I am your Alpha!" he snapped.
Then he waved his hand. The Omega got the hint and left with the suit.
Instead of answering my question, he impatiently pushed me away, trying to leave.
"Are you getting ready for Alpha Zander's dinner party?" I kept pressing.
Marsh took a deep breath, finally admitting, "Yeah. Alpha Zander's throwing a dinner party. He invited all packs in Los Angeles."
Shocked, I asked, "Why the hell are you bringing Emily along instead of me?"
"She used to be a member of the Dawn Pack," he defended. "I don't see anything wrong with that."
I shot him a glare. "Why don't you just reject me? Any Luna won't take such a humiliation."
He seemed frustrated and confused at my words. "Why would I reject you? I'm an Alpha, it's perfectly normal for me to have a lover. But you'll still be my Luna, I assure you that. Stop making a fuss."
"You're betraying our mating bond. Can't you feel it weakening?" I retorted.
My wolf hardly responded to me recently.
I guessed Marsh was having the same problem, for his arm movements seemed stiff when he was changing just now.
It meant that his shoulder wound hadn't healed yet, which was strange. As a strong Alpha, he should've recovered long ago.
"Just reject me," I suggested again. "Then you're free to fuck whoever you want."
"I'm not rejecting you," he said firmly. "Never."
"Why?" I wondered.
He just shrugged, acting all indifferent. "Cuz my wolf needs you. Just calm down, okay?"
With that, he shoved past me and left the room.
Realizing he wouldn't take me to the party, I had to turn to Hannah.
"Hannah, I need you to get me into Alpha Zander's dinner party," I said earnestly after she picked up the phone.
She blurted her reply, "How about we attend it together? I happen to need someone to go there with me."
"Don't you want a guy as your date?" I asked.
"You're my priority!" she replied, totally making my day.
********
Three days later, the dinner party was set to take place.
After Marsh and Emily headed out, I rushed to the pack border where Hannah was waiting for me in her car.
Together, we went to the salon she frequented.
She had her stylist do my makeup and helped me change into a white silk evening gown.
Then she changed into a red one with the same design as mine.
The hems of our dresses were in the shape of rose pleats, adorned with sparkling rhinestones like dew on petals.
The two of us looked just like gorgeous roses in full bloom.
All prepped, we came to the party venue, signing in as representatives of the Amber Pack.
Once we walked into the hall, all eyes were on us.
I spotted Marsh and Emily, and obviously, they saw me too.
Marsh looked slack-jawed, while Emily's eyes were ablaze with anger and jealousy.
He wanted to come over, yet gasps of astonishment caught his attention.
Following everyone's gaze, I saw a hunk entering in a tailored suit. His presence stood out in the room as soon as he showed up.
"Gosh! Alpha Zander is so fine. I think I'm falling in love with him," Hannah whispered in my ear.
I nodded in agreement as I sized Alpha Zander up.
He was taller than Marsh, with a straight nose and a sharp jawline, oozing sexuality from every pore.
Although he wasn't bulky, I could totally sense the power under that suit.
And weirdly enough, he looked kinda familiar, but I couldn't put my finger on it.
"Alpha Zander, welcome." Marsh stepped forward to shake hands with him.
However, Alpha Zander just cast a glance at him and took a sip of wine before asking, "Alpha Marsh, where's your Luna?"
Marsh retracted his hand with an awkward laugh. "She's caught up in something and can't make it here." Then he introduced nervously, "This is my date, Emily."
"Alpha Zander, a-a pleasure to meet you," Emily stammered as she gazed at Alpha Zander, her cheeks heating up.
I sneered inwardly, 'Marsh, can't you see your beloved girl is swooning over another guy now?'
Zander frowned and said to his man beside him, "I remember I requested the invited Alpha to come with his Luna, right?"
"Yes, Alpha Zander. I have it written on the invitations."
"So, Alpha Marsh, you brought your mistress to meet me, even though you know her status is lower than mine? Are you insulting me?" Zander's voice dropped, indicating his displeasure.
I tightened my grip on Hannah's hand, while she gave a snort.
"Alpha Zander, I—"
"Save it, Alpha Marsh. I don't wanna waste my time on someone who disrespects me." Zander then bypassed Marsh and walked away.
"Thanks for being here, ladies and gentlemen. I'm throwing this party cuz I have an announcement to make. My company will soon launch a development project around LA, and I believe any pack involved will earn a small fortune."
Zander smiled at the representatives of the other packs.
Marsh and Emily stood frozen, embarrassment written all over their faces.
Suddenly, Marsh's eyes darted to me.

Olivia's POVI ignored him.The party got even livelier as Alpha Zander's deep and authoritative voice sounded again."However, I'll only pick one main partner for this project. And that's exactly why I'm here. To scope out and choose the right fit."I noticed Marsh's face turned sour, a hint of anxiety flashing in his eyes.Apparently, he was eager to get in on this deal with Alpha Zander.But the awkward greeting he just pulled didn't do him any favors.Literally, he himself threw a rare chance down the drain. I guessed he must rack his brains trying to make up for it.The guests around me were still engaged in heated discussion. After all, the collaboration with Alpha Zander would bring them anything they wanted—wealth, power, status, etc.Just then, an Alpha around Marsh's age stood up.He took his date's hand and approached Alpha Zander, introducing himself, "Nice to meet you, Alpha Zander.

Olivia's POVAs Alpha Zander's voice just fell, I heard the guests gasp in surprise.Marsh's face darkened. Clearly, he wasn't expecting Alpha Zander to back me up in public.Emily froze, the smirk dying on her lips."Well, Alpha Zander—" Marsh stammered, trying to explain, but Alpha Zander just waved his hand, signaling him not to continue."I've made myself pretty clear," said Alpha Zander, his voice dripping with authority.Emily squeezed out her reluctant apology through gritted teeth, "Since that's the case, I'll apologize for what I've done."With that, she walked toward me with her wine glass in hand.Noticing the flicker of annoyance in her eyes, I took a step back, but it was too late.She had pretended to trip over her dress and spilled the wine all over my white gown.The crisp sound of the glass shattering on the floor made the crowd kick up a low buzz of surprise.The deep red stains on the white fabric stood out, like a pristine canvas marred by a sudden, violent stroke

Olivia's POVMy thoughts were a whirlwind as I left the lounge.Alpha Zander's offer had caught me completely off guard.I gotta make a choice, but it wasn't easy.With heavy steps, I descended the stairs and paused at the landing.I called out to my wolf, trying to discuss with me about what had happened."Elara, what do you think about Alpha Zander's offer? As long as we become his Luna for a year, we'll get our freedom and power back," I whispered.After a moment, Elara's voice sounded in my mind, sounding a bit raspy."I'm not sure, Olivia. Marsh is our mate. Perhaps we should figure out a way to win him back instead of leaving with someone else.""I used to have the same idea, and I've tried. But he's clearly obsessed with Emily. And I don't wanna waste my time on an unfaithful mate," I sighed."Have you thought it through? If we reject Marsh, we might not get a second chance mate."Marsh's blatant betrayal and our weakening mating bond had left my wolf weak and insecure.I sooth

Olivia's POVMorning light slipped through the gaps in the curtains, gently caressing my face.I awoke from my bed, immediately feeling a pang of hunger.So much had happened last night. I'd only had a couple of drinks and barely eaten anything.Now, this emptiness in my stomach urged me to get up.After freshening up, I made my way to the packhouse's dining area.Entering the dining hall, I hoped to find some solace from my acquaintances in the pack, but what greeted me was indifference.The guards who had fought alongside me carried trays past me.They merely glanced my way, one of them offering a slight nod.None of them initiated a greeting.The respect they once held for me was gone.I knew it was because of Marsh.His affair with Emily had hurt not only our mating bond but also my prestige within the pack.I walked into the dining area where an Omega was busy flipping eggs behind the buffet counter, spreading butter on toast.I approached with a smile.

Zander's POVFrom Olivia's reaction when she saw me at the dinner party, I knew she thought it was the first time we'd met.I read shock and confusion in her bewildered expression.But actually, we'd crossed paths before, not at some meticulously planned event, but by sheer chance.The moment I first saw her was etched indelibly in my memory.It was at a werewolf school in Los Angeles, a place that groomed future leaders of wolf packs.Olivia stood out even among a crowd of exceptional students.Her beauty and charm were hard to resist.My wolf felt a strong pull towards her.Every time I got close to Olivia, my wolf seemed more excited.But if that was the attraction between a pair of destined mates, then why didn't Olivia feel the same about me?She only saw me as a stranger who went to the same school as her, which made me uncomfortable.However, that was only part of the reason I didn't approach her.I stayed away because I was afraid.I was certain I'd lose control around her, wh

Olivia's POVI drove the newly bought car back to the Dawn Pack.Marsh and Emily seemed not back yet, while I wasn't in the mood to look for them.I went upstairs to take my luggage and loaded it into the car.After it was done, I went back to my bedroom and fell into a deep slumber.A while later, Hannah's call awoke me from sleep."Sweetheart, long time no see. How about we have dinner together?""Hannah, we just met at noon." I rubbed my forehead with a chuckle. "And we're attending Alpha Zander's banquet tonight.""Speaking of which, Alpha Zander seems to pursue you, right?" Hannah asked."Maybe, he sent me flowers today," I said, casting a glance at the bouquet. "But I don't want a relationship now. My priority is to get away from Marsh.""Alpha Zander is in charge of the Blackthorn Pack, which totally puts Marsh in the shade. Are you really not interested in him?" she smiled."Let's talk about that after I get my company back." I quickly got off the bed to freshen up."Alright,

Olivia's POVAs the final notes of the dance music echoed through the banquet hall, the crowd gradually melted away, leaving the place a mess with scattered cups and plates as well as murmurs.Zander walked up to me, whispering, "Have you signed the papers?""Not yet," I admitted frankly. "But I will leave the Dawn Pack and head to San Francisco with you.""Leaving the Dawn Pack does not mean you have to wander like a rogue. The Blackthorn Pack is spacious where you can live comfortably," Zander offered, and his brows slightly furrowed.When I looked at him, warmth welled up inside me. "Alpha Zander, I appreciate your kindness. But I won't end up being on the streets. I have my own plan and place to go."Zander did not insist. Instead, he took a step back and smiled, "I got it. My car will depart early tomorrow morning. Let's meet at the hotel entrance and set off.""I will be there on time," I said."After you leave the Dawn Pack, we will discuss how to get rid of Marsh and get back

I could guess some of Alpha Justin's thoughts.Compared to that, I cared more about the bidding plan for the land we were bidding on tomorrow.I rejected the plan proposed in the meeting just now. Morgan didn't dare to oppose me as he used to.I was the daughter of the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack. The entire Wonder Group was affiliated with the Red Moon Pack.

Alpha Marsh's POVI had just finished the meeting when I saw Jeffrey standing at the door, looking at me cautiously.I gave him a cold look and said, "Go ahead, what's the matter?""Mr. White just called me. Alpha Justin wants you to return to the Dawn Pack immediately."I glanced at Jeffrey, "I see."With that, I stepped over and entered the elevator.I had a pretty good idea why Alpha Justin wanted to see me.I had anticipated part of it, but not the other."So you're saying you want me to mark Olivia again and let her continue to be the Luna of the Dawn Pack?" I asked in surprise.Alpha Justin glared at me, "Why? Do you really want that Lily to become the Luna of our Dawn Pack? She doesn't even have the bloodline of a Beta."I naturally had no intention of mating Lily. But I thought it was absolutely impossible to mate with Olivia again."Let's not discuss the new Luna for now. What you said about me re-

Landon's POVSoon, Wendy led me upstairs."Ms. Johnson," I said.I have been Alpha Justin's Beta for over twenty years, so I couldn't help but carry a bit of his condescending pride in my voice.Olivia let out a light hum. "Landon, the honor is all mine with your visit."Alpha Justin used to look down on Olivia. That somewhat influenced me.Even though Olivia's status has changed. She's no longer the person she was before, but we were used to belittling her.So, my attitude towards her now wasn't much better.Olivia used to treat me with great respect. It was the first time she's spoken to me in such a manner.A wave of dissatisfaction welled up in my heart. But thinking of Alpha Justin's instructions, I suppressed myself. "Ms. Johnson, Alpha Justin needs you now. Go with me."Olivia looked at me. The smile on her face faded instantly. "Landon, you certainly have a way with words. You're in my company now and you

Olivia's POVMy words made Emily's face stiffen for a moment.But she recovered quickly.After a slight intake of breath, she spoke again， "Alright, maybe I've misunderstood you."She continued, "Let's talk about the apology. Could you please let us off the hook this time? Lily is very unstable right now. You might not know that she became a vegetative state to save Alpha Marsh, lying in a hospital bed for nearly five years. Before she went into surgery, Alpha Marsh personally promised her that he would mate her. But now that she's back and lucid, she found out you were once Alpha Marsh's mate, which made her think wrongly and lie about you."Emily's expression changed slightly as she went on, "Besides, why Alpha Marsh made you his mate back then, I think you know very well. The past is the past. Now, you and Alpha Marsh have separated. You don't need to be stuck in the past. Lily did wrong, but the doctor said she has depression. Please understand

Olivia's POV"Lily's got her heart set on joining the Dawn Pack. Alpha Justin is so angry that he's in the hospital now. I doubt even if she groveled, she couldn't get into the Dawn Pack!"I gave Hannah a faint smile and said, "Don't be so sure about that."People like Alpha Justin, who's all about the bottom line, might just let Lily in one day.But what does it have to do with me?Nothing. Really.I pushed my chair back, got up, and headed to my room as Hannah called after me, "Hey, Olivia. What's up?""Get changed. I'm heading to work."I'd taken a day off yesterday, missing out on hundreds of thousands of dollars.Hannah, the lady of leisure, found my words boring.She, with all her free time, couldn't grasp the joy of working.I came out dressed and saw Hannah still there, tsking, "Why are you still here?""Your guest room bed is super comfy.

I knew full well that the internet would be in chaos when I woke up this morning.When I woke up today, I felt much better.I glanced at my phone and saw two missed calls, one from Blanche and one from Wendy.My WhatsApp was also filled with unread messages, mostly about the posts.Blanche initially sent text messages. But about an hour later, after probably seeing my new Twitter, she sent several voice messages, then.I couldn't help but smile helplessly. Last night, I was provoked by Alpha Marsh and, coinciding with a cold, my reaction was a bit slow. I didn't think it through and posted on Twitter.Hunter and Blanche are aware of the situation now.Last time when we went to the Dawn Pack, they were still polite. But only a few days later, Lily showed up to falsely accuse me.Hunter was furious when he heard about it and immediately asked his assistant

Alpha Marsh's POVI didn't expect Lily to make such a request. I couldn't help but frown.It was Lily who pushed me away, saving me from the car accident.But I never considered making her my mate.I never said that what she did was unnecessary. As an Alpha, my wolf would have me dodge the danger at the speed of light.Saying that would make me seem heartless.Perhaps seeing my continued silence, Lily couldn't help but speak up, "Alpha Marsh, have you fallen for Olivia?""No.""Then why don't you mark me? Why don't you make me your mate?""Because I don't like you.""If Olivia is your second chance, would you mark her again?""No.""Olivia won't be your second chance either, Alpha Marsh. I can tell she truly doesn't want to love you anymore."I glanced at her.Lilly said this with a strange, triumphant smile, looking at me.I didn't know what made her think she won. I didn't know

Olivia's POV"The villa in Elephant Hill, if I remember correctly, should be worth over 90 million dollars now, right? The apartment in Cloud Garden should also be worth over 30 million dollars. Your asset appreciation in the past three years, even if calculated at 3%, would be at least 4 to 5 billion dollars. Rounded up, that's at least 150 million dollars. So, all in all, you have given me at least 300 million dollars."You are so generous."Marsh frowned, "I know you're not willing to accept this."
