Marsh's POV
I found Olivia's gaze extremely uncomfortable. She had never looked at me like this before, and her words made me even more uncomfortable.I frowned, and my tone instantly turned icy cold. "Do you think I would fall for your trick of playing hard-to-get?"Warwick sighed when he heard me. "Marsh, that's a bit too much."Olivia looked at me and smiled. "Playing hard to get? Alpha Marsh, what makes you think that I am still infatuated with you?"She said, her face turning cold, before I could speak, she added, "Marsh, in case you didn't hear me before, let me make it clear to you again. We have already rejected each other. And I'm not a landfill, so you're not for me."Olivia finished speaking and glanced at Warwick. "If you still don't understand, I suggest you ask Warwick. I think he understands what I mean."As soon as the words fell, Olivia turned around and left.Warwick took a breath and glanced at me. "Marsh, is Olivia callingOlivia's POVZander took the necklace back and immediately put it around his neck.He put the necklace back on himself after I wore it for over three years.I stood there, looking at the necklace on his collar, and after a while, I asked, "What about now? Are we even?"Zander didn't say anything. He approached me and stopped just a few centimeters in front of me. He then looked down at me and said, "No, Olivia."He said, reaching out and lifting my chin, then bending down to kiss me on the lips.After he was done, Zander licked his lips and said, "You still owe me, Olivia."He curved his lips, his deep eyes filled with a playful smile, alluring and captivating.Marsh's POVWhen I had just walked out, this was the scene I saw.I stood there, my gaze sweeping over the two people in front of me. When it landed on the necklace around Zander's neck, I felt as if my eyes had been pricked by a needle.I remember that necklace. It had a
Zander's POVI turned to her and got closer. "Do you feel disappointed after finding out about the truth?"I no longer smiled. I just stared at her tightly.I seemed to want to engulf her in my gaze, and Olivia instinctively tried to step back a little, but I held her waist from behind before she could.The traffic light in front turned green, and our car was in the front row. Since I didn't move at all, the cars behind us kept honking their horns to urge us.Olivia couldn't help but raise her hand and push me lightly, saying, "The light turned green."I twitched my eyebrows and then restarted the car.As for the question Olivia did not answer, and I never asked it again.The silence lasted until the car stopped downstairs at Olivia's apartment. Only then did I speak again, "I will drive the car back tonight and return it to you tomorrow morning. You shouldn't mind, right?"After all, just over half an hour ago she had used me to irritate
Olivia's POVI wasn't sure whether Zander was serious about me. And I wasn't sure whether the guy from four years ago was indeed him.Yet what I was quite sure about was that Marsh was indeed annoying.Early in the morning, I woke up and found several missed calls from Hannah on my phone. I thought it was the result of the investigation from four years ago, so when I called back, I couldn't help but marvel at the efficiency of Hannah's cousin Tom.However, after the phone was connected, the first thing Hannah said on the other end of the line was, "Olivia, you haven't left the house today, have you?"It was Sunday, and I wanted to go to the gym.As soon as Hannah opened her mouth, I couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and said, "What? Is my house surrounded by people?""Did you just wake up? Haven't you seen the messages I sent you?"I hadn't.Thus, I put her on speaker and then switched to WhatsApp to check her messages. It turned out she
Marsh's POVI didn't expect that public attention would turn to Emily.She had been back for several days, always acting low-key, because she was afraid of being noticed by the people from the Dawn Pack. Unexpectedly, she didn't do anything this time but ended up being innocently harmed.Feeling annoyed as I watched the increasing popularity on social media, I got Emily's phone call.As I picked up the phone, my tone immediately turned cold. "What's the matter?""Marsh, did you see what happened online?""What do you want to say?""Marsh, it wasn't me who did things online. Really, it wasn't me! What should I do now? Should I take Lily back to the Dawn Pack?"I looked downstairs, feeling increasingly heavy-hearted, and said coldly, "You don't need to do anything, I will handle it."Upon hearing my words, Emily finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Alright then, I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."After hanging up the phone,
Warwick's POVI had been Marsh's buddy for over twenty years, and whenever I heard those negative comments, I couldn't help but stand out and say a few words in his defense.When facing doubts and pressures from the outside, support from friends became particularly important.The gossiper smiled and asked, "So, Alpha Marsh doesn't have an affair with Emily?" I couldn't respond to that. A few of our friends knew that Marsh had indeed attended many werewolf events with Emily recently, though they broke up after just two months. But if someone really wanted to investigate, they could probably find some traces. As the Alpha of the Dawn Pack, Marsh was always the focus. Any of his actions could be magnified and interpreted.I was speechless and extremely frustrated, completely baffled by Marsh's confusing actions last night.I didn't feel like drinking or picking up girls anymore, so I picked up my car keys and walked out without hesitation. Several people tried
Olivia's POVMarsh's affair caused a small ripple online and then subsided.On Sunday, I stayed in the apartment all day. Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Hannah called me and asked if I wanted to go to Mina's bar for a drink in the evening.I didn't feel like going out, so I just refused.I went to bed before 11 o'clock at night.I woke up before 7 o'clock on Monday.At this time, it was still dark outside. I pulled the curtains open, and the sky outside was still dim.I picked up my phone and checked today's schedule, and there were quite a few things to do.There was a morning meeting at 9 o'clock, followed by a short meeting at 11 o'clock, and a business lunch at noon.I would be very occupied.It was rare for me to wake up so early. I made a delicate breakfast and finished it. It was only 8:45 when I arrived at the company.Wendy had just arrived when the two of us bumped into each other at the elevator entrance in th
Olivia's POVI quickly came down as well, since twenty minutes later I had a business dinner.Wendy briefly told me about what had just happened, and I chuckled. "Alright, let's not worry about her anymore."It was about time for Hailey to taste the bitterness of defeat.When I first got married to Marsh and came to the Dawn Pack, I was still thinking about handling my relationship with Hailey. She often tried to exclude me from the pack, which was way worse than the way she treated me now.Wendy nodded. "Okay, Miss Johnson."We didn't pay any more attention to Hailey. One after another, we went straight out of the Wonder Company, ready to head to the hotel.The driver had already parked the car at the company's entrance and was waiting. Wendy and I had just walked out when we saw it.I just didn't expect that I happened to run into Hailey, who hadn't left yet.Hailey was about to make a phone call when she saw me coming out. She put away
Olivia's POVIt seemed that with no one else around, Emily became bolder.She approached me and said, "What I said to you before was just to provoke you. I didn't expect you to misunderstand. But it's also good. Marsh doesn't like you anyway. He only married you for the sake of the Dawn Pack."Emily's words carried a strong sense of provocation.She tried to frustrate me.She knew well that I had once been in great pain because of Marsh, and now deliberately mentioning it was to evoke painful memories for me. However, she didn't realize that I was no longer the same Luna Olivia as before.Emily smiled proudly as she said, "The person from last night wasn't me, but there was indeed someone. However, since you and Marsh have already broken up, I don't think you would be upset either."She continued to provoke me as if she were flaunting her dominant position in this emotional entanglement.I looked at her calmly until Emily was done, and then I
Third person's POVOlivia looked at Hannah with an amused smile, "Should I tell Blanche you have something to do and won't be joining us?""On second thought, we're such close friends. There's no need for such formalities, right?"Hannah quickly changed her tune, fearing Olivia would leave without her.Olivia, well aware of Hannah's character, hummed and turned to go upstairs.Hannah followed
Third person's POVOlivia fell into a deep sleep as soon as she changed into her pajamas, her body and mind desperately needing rest to recover from the exhaustion.This sleep lasted until the sun was high in the sky the next day. When Olivia opened her eyes, it was already past nine in the morning.After freshening up, Olivia discovered numerous messages from Hannah.Raising an eyebrow, she unlocked her phone and clicked into the message list.
Third person's POVMarsh remained silent, and Alpha Justin waited for a moment, but received no explanation.Furious, he threw the book in his hand forcefully. "Marsh, are you mute? Your silence will only make things worse. Your actions might trigger tension between our pack and the Red Moon Pack.""Alpha Justin, it's getting late. You should rest early," Marsh said, preparing to hang up the phone.The next moment, he heard Justin ask angrily, "Do you really not want to reco
Third person's POVIn the werewolf world, different packs have their own territories and complex interpersonal relationships. A large pack like the Red Moon Pack, with its Alpha holding an extremely high status, any conflict with him could trigger a series of chain reactions."Do you think I'm stupid?" Marsh retorted.Zander was clearly pretending to be unconscious!As the Alpha of the Blackthorn Pack, Zander couldn't be that weak.
Third person's POVWarwick noticed that Marsh wasn't responding at all.He turned to look and saw Marsh's face was pale, his forehead covered in a dense layer of sweat.Alarmed, Warwick asked, "Alpha Marsh, don't scare me. What's wrong with you?"March gritted his teeth and, with difficulty, managed to say, "Stomach pain.""I'll take you to the hospital," Warwick declared, immediately reversin
Third person's POVFifteen minutes later, the car pulled up to the Lightmark Hotel.Olivia turned her head to look at Zander. Under the cover of shadow, the bruises on his face were still clearly visible.She could sense the faint scent of the wolf tribe on Zander, a unique smell that mixed wildness and strength, which was hard to conceal even in human form.Olivia glanced and said, "Alpha Zander, we've arrived at the hotel."
Third person's POVOlivia swallowed hard, her gaze instinctively shifting towards the dark hospital window in an attempt to divert her attention.She repeatedly told herself not to be affected by the scene before her. This was just a simple exchange of favors."Try some?" Suddenly, a hot dog was offered right in front of her.Zander lifted his head, his eyes filled with tenderness and anticipation, a faint smile playing on his lips.Olivia leaned back slightly, flustered as she said, "No, thanks."Zander just smiled, his grin growing brighter, as he once again offered the hot dog to her lips and whispered, "Be a good girl. Open your mouth." His voice was incredibly gentle, using the word "good girl" as if he were coaxing a child.His gaze was fixed on Olivia, seemingly waiting for her to accept this small sharing.In a moment of distraction, Olivia unknowingly took a bite.Instantly, her face flushed slightly, feeling a
Third person's POVOlivia and Hannah left the hospital together, taking only about ten minutes to return to the car.Hannah quickly got inside, but Olivia did not follow.At this moment, Olivia was feeling conflicted. She knew Hannah was puzzled and didn't understand her intention to buy food for Zander, yet she couldn't ignore his plight.She told herself silently that this was just a gesture to repay a favor, with no other emotional entanglements.Hannah was taken aback and asked with confusion, "You're not really planning to buy him food, are you?""Go back first," Olivia said, signaling the driver to start the car, her tone resolute and leaving no room for argument.She feared that if she hesitated any longer, she might change her mind."Hey, Olivia, why bother with him..." Hannah tried to dissuade her, but Olivia only pressed her lips tightly together, offering no response.She turned and walked towards the convenie
Third person's POVHe gazed down at Olivia, who looked breathtakingly beautiful tonight, a sight he had never seen before.In his heart, he truly wanted to compliment her, but before he had the chance, the despised Zander had already seized Olivia's attention.Just like now, before he could expose Zander's pretense, Olivia had already concluded that he was the cause of tonight's chaos."I know," Marsh responded in a deep voice, still looking down at Olivia, waiting quietly for her to continue.However, Olivia didn't say anything more. She just gave him a cold look before turning around and leaving resolutely.The news of Zander and Marsh fighting over Olivia spread rapidly within minutes.At such a grand event, it was nearly impossible to conceal their public brawl.As the host of the banquet, the Red Moon Pack, considering Zander's fainting and hospitalization, logically should send a representative to follow up on the matter.
