Third person's POV
What happened at the hotel got spread online at around two in the morning.In the dead of night, Olivia's words and the sudden appearance of Marsh's true love "Lily" evoked the netizens' enthusiasm.In social networks, the speed of information dissemination was as fast as lightning.Besides, Marsh was the Alpha of the Dawn Pack, who was also the influential boss of a major company in Los Angeles. Any movement of his could attract a great deal of public attention.Olivia's actions undoubtedly cause a great stir on the Internet.The discussion around this thing had never stopped. By the second day, about seven in the morning, the topic "True Love Lily" had already made it to the trending topics list.Hailey's phone was filled with questions and screenshots sent by her friends. When she woke up and saw the news, she was also confused.She couldn't help asking herself in her heart, 'Why did Marsh hit the headline again?'WhMarsh's POVWhen I arrived, Justin was already furious.Hailey kept talking incessantly, which only fueled Justin's anger further.Now I knew. She must have been badmouthing Olivia.Justin had strong opinions about Olivia to begin with, and it had taken some time for his temper to subside a little.Now, he turned his gaze towards me, ready to speak.Just then, Hailey said, "Grandpa, is Olivia deliberately clinging to our family? She is making trouble for us as the daughter of San Francisco's richest man!"Before Hailey spoke, although Justin was angry, he hadn't reached a boiling point.But once Hailey uttered those words, he flew into a rage.Not long ago, Hunter came over with a box of gold, claiming it was Olivia's living expenses for three years. That was an accusation that we mistreated Olivia. He wanted to draw a line in the sand and even mocked our pack with that gold.Justin had always valued his pride highly. After the news that Olivia was Hunter's daughter spread, countless
Marsh's POVI wanted to rebel against the arranged marriage that Justin had planned for me. It just so happened that Lily was my girlfriend, making her the perfect choice.But later, Lily got into an accident while saving me. Before going into surgery, she cried and held onto my sleeve, asking if I would wait for her.I felt a rare pang of sympathy. Facing my girlfriend who had just saved me, I couldn't bring myself to say "no."After Lily fell into a coma and became vegetative, Justin forced me to choose between two options, which sparked my rebellion.That day, as I watched the plane carrying Lily take off into the sky, it was as if I could see a string attached to it, with Justin holding the other end.And I was like that plane.Sure enough, barely half a month after Lily went abroad, Justin arranged for me to meet the daughter of another pack's Alpha, who was considered a suitable match.I resisted in many ways, but I knew that if I left recklessly, the pack would become unstable.
Marsh's POV"What did you find?" I asked.Jeffrey remained silent.I said, "Tell me. I want to know.""The investigation results are not good. Based on what I know about you, you will be angry when you see them," Jeffrey said. After setting down the documents, he tried to leave, giving me some space.This made me realize that what he said was true.He left me alone to process the information and also to avoid my anger.Just as Jeffrey was about to turn around and leave, he noticed the stomach medicine on my desk.He quickly looked at me and asked, "Alpha Marsh, are you having a stomachache?"Not many people knew about this.Generally, werewolves didn't get sick, especially an Alpha like me.But my wolf had never been completely healthy due to an accident in my childhood.So I had been suffering from stomach problems.At that time, to avoid affecting my succession as Alpha, I kept it a secret.Jeffrey and Olivia were among the few who knew.When I heard Jeffrey's words, my hands that h
Marsh's POV"What do you mean?"I let out a cold snort. "The evidence on the surface isn't against her, but how can you be sure she's not involved?"Jeffrey felt the oppressive chill and lowered his head, too intimidated to respond.I glanced at him. "Get out!""Got it, Alpha Marsh!"Jeffrey, feeling immensely relieved, quickly turned around, closed the door behind him, and left.Once again, I was alone in the office. I sat in my chair, bowing my head, my mind filled with gloom.Stomach pain and anger intertwined within me, and suddenly, I realized how despicable Olivia was!Was this intentional?Olivia deliberately denied it, waiting for this day to mock me, right?She did it on purpose, just like that bottle of stomach medicine, mocking my ignorance!Olivia's POVI slept until almost nine before slowly waking up.As I opened my eyes, I realized that the room was dimly lit, with the curtains tightly drawn, as if shutting out the entire world.I moved slightly and struggled to sit up
Olivia's POVAfter finishing the water, I felt a bit better and decided to order some takeout and fever reducers online. Then I slumped on the couch.I stared blankly at the cat-shaped clock on the wall that Hannah had given me, watching its tail swing back and forth as my thoughts drifted away.Memories of the past flashed through my mind like a slideshow, including the accident when I was fifteen years old.Marsh's former warmth and later coldness were intertwined, making my mood increasingly heavy.And now, the weakness from being sick plunged me into a powerless daze.Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and without thinking much, I assumed it was the delivery guy with my food.When I opened the door and saw Zander, I couldn't help but freeze. "Zander?""You're not dreaming. It's me," Zander said with a smile that sparkled in the sunlight, though I had no mood to appreciate it at the moment.He reached out and touched my forehead before I could dodge, forcing me to watch as he placed his
Olivia's POVWe locked eyes for a few seconds, and in the end, I backed down.At that moment, my wolf fell into a deep sleep. My head was spinning, and tears welled up in my eyes. Instantly, I gave in."I'll go get a coat."Zander straightened up, rubbed his eyelids, and smiled at me with satisfaction, saying, "Go ahead."In March, it was still a bit cold in Los Angeles.I didn't want to go back to the Red Moon Pack to see a werewolf doctor. It would make my parents worry.So Zander took me to the hospital. When we arrived, all the doctors were busy. I breathed a sigh of relief, "The doctors are going to take a break. I'll just go back and take some fever-reducing pills."My physical condition had always been good, but this time I suddenly fell ill. Most likely, I was distracted while taking a bath at home last night, and by the time I snapped out of it, the water had already turned cold.Although werewolves had a strong physique, the intense emotional fluctuations and negligence in t
Olivia's POVMarsh didn't expect to run into Zander and me here.I caught a glimpse of him in my peripheral vision. He saw me being held in Zander's arms.I was lying in Zander's arms, showing only half of my face.Noticing his gaze, Zander slightly shifted his position and blocked Marsh's sight.Emily was next to Marsh. When she saw me in Zander's arms, she was stunned, and then suddenly rushed to Zander's side.She raised her hand and pulled me, "What did you say to Lily?"Zander failed to dodge in time. I was pulled by Emily, revealing my entire face.I opened my eyes, the sunlight was blinding, and Emily's hysterical questioning echoed in my ears.I furrowed my brows and was perplexed.I moved slightly, and suddenly a familiar male voice sounded, "Enough! Lily needs to see a doctor now!"Marsh gave Emily a cold look. After speaking, his gaze swept over me as he quickly walked into the hospital while holding Lily.Emily ran after Marsh, crying all the way, towards the hospital.I t
Olivia's POVZander, however, seemed not to get my point and glanced at me, saying, "I won't disturb you. Just go have a rest."I was speechless when I just wanted to say "You should leave".We both stood still for a while, and finally, it was Zander who spoke first, "Fever can lead to serious problems. Just go back to your room and rest. Once you get better, I won't bother you anymore."After all, he took me to the hospital, so I couldn't say anything too heartless to him.
Third person's POVOlivia was taken aback for a moment, then she said, "That's a good thing. It's like free publicity."However, Wendy's face showed no trace of a smile, and she worriedly said, "But there are quite a few people discussing how you got that piece of land. The current talk outside is that Alpha Marsh made up a project for Mr. Barkley, and that's why he gave you the land."Olivia clicked her tongue, saying, "What they're saying is also the truth. No need to pay attention to it."She thought to herself, these gossip reporters were incredibly boring, not tracking down celebrity scandals but instead digging into her affairs.But no matter how much they dug, she would just consider it as publicity for the project. Once the project was completed and launched, it would naturally bring its own traffic, saving a sum on publicity costs.Seeing Olivia unconcerned, Wendy could not say anything more.She suspected that the Dawn Pack
Third person's POVA smug smile crept onto Justin's face as he continued, "By the way, contact the media and spread the word about Marsh seeking Cedric's help to give land to Olivia. If that boy from the Blackthorn Pack can create public opinion, so can we, right?"Landon nodded in agreement, "Yes, Alpha Justin. I'll get it done right away."Justin waved his hand again, confident that Olivia would eventually become part of the Dawn Pack.Justin's understanding and control of human nature were indeed quite precise.After returning to her room from the study, Moira sat on the edge of her bed, staring intently at the small vial Justin had given her.She seemed restless and uneasy.The fact that Justin had asked her to drug Olivia filled Moira with both fear and reluctance.However, the resolute look on Justin's face made it clear that he was determined for her to carry out this task.Torn between her feelings, Moira eventua
Third person's POVJustin glanced up at her, nodding with a tone that was still wild, "Take a seat."Once Moira had settled, Justin spoke up slowly, handing her a box from beside him as he said."As Marsh's mother, you would want him to live a happy and fulfilling life. I hold Olivia in high regard, and you've had a harmonious relationship with her in the past. Marsh has always been too proud to humble himself for reconciliation. This is when you, as his mother, need to step up and do something for him."Moira listened, her face showing a puzzled expression. "Alpha Justin, what do you mean...?"Seeing that Moira still didn't grasp his intentions, Justin felt a hint of disdain within.But considering he needed her to carry out this task, he suppressed his dissatisfaction. "No matter what, you and Olivia have been families for three years. Take the initiative to reconnect with her, to foster the bond between you two."Only then did Moir
Third person's POVPaparazzi had photographed Zander's late-night stay at Olivia's apartment. Although Zander's secretary intercepted the photos, the news still spread within their social circles.Upon hearing this, Hailey couldn't help but say during breakfast, "Alpha Justin, I think Olivia doesn't want to reconcile with Marsh anymore. She's with Alpha Zander now!""Nonsense, how can they be together? Didn't that boy from the Blackthorn Pack just have a new lover?" Justin said, frowning.Hailey scoffed disdainfully, "Who knows? They're good at playing games. They spent the night together. What else could it be?"Thinking Hailey was making things up again, Justin's face darkened, and he scolded, "Are you talking nonsense again?""I'm not! Alpha Justin, if you don't believe me, look, there are photos! My friend sent them to me!" Hailey defended herself hastily, handing her phone to Justin.Justin took the phone and saw a photo of Zande
Third person's POVHis actions, as if coaxing a child, left Olivia feeling helpless.Her lower abdomen was indeed aching badly, and after a moment of resistance, she could no longer hold on.With a hint of exhaustion in her voice, she said, "I have an early meeting tomorrow. I need to rest. Do as you please."She thought to herself, 'let him do whatever he wants.' She truly didn't have the energy to deal with him tonight.As she stood up, a hand on her waist stopped her, and in the next instant, she was pulled back onto the sofa by Zander."What are you afraid of, Olivia?"He put down the spoon and looked up at her, "Are you afraid I've put wolfsbane in this drink, or that by drinking it, you'll have to marry me?"Hearing this, Olivia's face turned even colder, and her voice hardened, "Zander, do you know that the cheapest thing in the world is being good to someone without limits?""Oh, are you saying I'm being pathetic
Third person's POVOlivia's face was pale due to menstrual cramps, and her tone was impatient."Do you have a stomachache?" Zander asked with concern.Olivia didn't answer his question but coldly said, "Is there anything else?"As soon as she finished speaking, Zander suddenly picked her up. Her body tensed instantly, filled with surprise, but at the same time, a sharp pain in her lower abdomen made her consciousness a bit dazed.She clenched her teeth, her hands unconsciously grabbing Zander's shirt, her fingers turning white from the effort."Does it hurt a lot?" Zander asked while carrying her to the sofa, looking down at her with a furrowed brow and eyes full of worry.Olivia weakly leaned on the armrest of the sofa and softly said, "Could you please get me a glass of water?""Sure." Zander let go without hesitation, placed her on the sofa, and then walked to the water dispenser, pouring a cup of warm water and bringing it
Third person's POVZander lowered his head, gazing intently at her, his long eyelashes casting a small patch of shadow under his eyes. Between the interplay of light and shadow, his eyes sparkled with a gentle smile as he said, "I used underhanded methods, just to make you stand on my side.""..."His blunt honesty left Olivia at a loss for words.Marsh, who had just followed and was about to speak, suddenly found himself as if choked by something, unable to utter a single word upon hearing Zander's words.What could he say?Could he apologize for his impulsiveness last night?But if he questioned the reason for his impulsiveness, wasn't it because Zander was kissing Olivia?Every sentence seemed like a harsh slap to his own face. Marsh stood there stupefied, and suddenly, Warwick's words from last night surfaced in his mind. "In matters of love, you really can't compete with Alpha Zander."How had he responded at the ti
Third person's POV"Indeed, I've wanted to beat you up for a long time, Alpha Marsh. We didn't finish last night. Let's continue now!"Zander was not the least bit intimidated, and in an instant, a glimmer of emerald green flashed through his eyes, a sign that his wolf was about to be unleashed.He took a fierce step forward, and with it, a powerful Alpha aura surged towards Marsh like a tidal wave.The entire space seemed to tremble under the force of this aura.Marsh was equally unyielding. His eyes narrowed into dangerous slits, and a low growl rumbled from his throat, like a battle song from the ancient wilderness.His muscles tensed, and beneath his clothes, fur seemed to be trying to break through his skin, and veins bulged on his arms.He also released his Alpha aura, clashing and pressing against Zander's power in the air, forming an invisible vortex of energy.Zander moved like lightning, rushing towards Marsh. His arm
Third person's POVAfter finishing eating, Zander got out of the car and walked around to the other side to open the door for Olivia. He then proceeded to the trunk and lifted her suitcase out with ease.Instead of handing it over, he tilted his lips into a slight smile, his eyes conveying an unyielding determination, "I'll walk you up."Seeing this, Olivia reached for her suitcase, but Zander blocked her, transferring the luggage to his other hand while leaning in slightly, emphasizing his insistence.Hearing his words, Olivia raised her delicate eyebrows, a teasing glint in her eyes, "And then for a cup of coffee?""No coffee tonight, of course. If you insist on inviting me, I'll get one," Zander raised his eyebrows, a faint, playful smile appearing on his face.The originally ambiguous atmosphere in the car, as if shrouded in a veil of gauze, seemed to be dispersed slightly by a gentle breeze.Olivia's lips curled into a polite smi
