Olivia's POV“Your brother is improving, Olivia. He is responding to treatment, and I believe he will improve further after the trip to South Africa. You just have to sign some documents,” Doctor Martins said, and I furrowed my brow.“South Africa? He’s going to South Africa? I thought he just came back from India?” I asked, and Doctor Martins nodded.“Yes, his treatment in India was successful, and he will wake up soon. But Alpha Enzo doesn’t want any delays. He called the hospital yesterday, and we explained James’ condition to him. He demanded we take him to South Africa for another operation. Trust me, Olivia, once the operation is successful, your brother will wake up within a few weeks,” Doctor Martins said, and I swallowed the lump in my throat.I didn’t know what to say or think. What I had discussed with Alpha Enzo was only to send James to India for the operation, and he had done that. Why was he going to such lengths for another operation, which he wasn’t obligated to? What
Olivia’s POV I arrived at Alpha Enzo’s apartment and was asked to wait for him in his room by one of his men. Pushing the door open, I stepped in, closed it, and looked around to ensure there were no CCTVs in the room before pulling out the small bottle of chemical from my bag. For a moment, I stared at the bottle with a racing heart, but with a determined sigh, I carefully hid the bottle under the bed. “You can do this, Olivia,” I comforted myself before taking off my shoes. In order to freshen up, I undressed and stepped into the shower, the cold water pouring over me. Suddenly, I heard the sound of cars driving into the mansion, and my breath hitched. He was here. He had arrived. As the car pulled into the mansion driveway, I sighed in frustration. Even from within the bathroom, I could hear the sound of the car doors opening, and the air seemed to shift with his arrival. The muffled sounds of the staff’s greetings echoed faintly through the walls. I imagined them standing
Alpha Enzo’s POVOlivia was seated on the bed, the blanket wrapped around her while I stood before her with folded arms, staring at her.“So, tell me, why were you not picking my calls or answering my messages?” I asked, trying my best to sound angry even though I had already forgiven her the moment we had sex a few moments ago in the bathroom.Olivia shrugged. “Nothing. I was just busy,” she responded nonchalantly, and my frown deepened.“Really? You were busy every fucking second of the day?” I asked in an annoyed tone.She shrugged again. “Yes. Do you have a problem with that?” she asked, and my frown deepened further. It was obvious she was trying to get on my nerves, and she was doing a good job at that.“Olivia, may I remind you that I am still your DOM—”“Yes,” she rudely cut me off. “And we have just less than two months… no, a month and two weeks,” she added, and my heart ached.I couldn’t explain it. I couldn’t explain why Olivia had this deep resentment for me in her eyes.
Olivia’s POV As I watched him take sips of the coffee I made for him, I realized that if I had poisoned him like I wanted to, then my plan would have worked. But I decided not to do it now. This was the first time I was making something for him, and I didn’t know if he would suspect me, so I decided not to poison it yet. Rather, I would continue making meals and coffee for him, and when he had fully trusted me, I would strike. “Are you okay? You look bothered,” Alpha Enzo asked as he set the cup of coffee down. “Yes.” I flashed a weak smile. “It’s my first time making coffee for you, so I was worried if you would like it,” I lied, and it seemed Alpha Enzo believed it. He chuckled softly and pulled me into his lap, making me straddle him. I placed my hands on his shoulders. “Everything about you is perfect,” he said softly, and I forced a smile, making sure it seemed real. “Then I will make you breakfast tomorrow. What do you say?” Enzo’s smile widened. “That will be perfe
Alpha Enzo’s POV“Mother, what is going on?” I asked calmly, struggling to suppress the rage burning inside me.Mother met my gaze with an irritated look, stepping closer. “You’re getting married, Enzo. That’s what’s going on.”“Stop it, Mother!” I snapped, my voice rising. “I’m not getting married. And if I ever do, you won’t be the one choosing my wife.” My eyes flicked to Liana, who looked wounded by my words, but I didn’t care.Mother, annoyed by my words, eyed me. “Listen, Enzo, you have to get married and give this family an heir,” Mother stated firmly. “You are the only surviving male in this family. If anything happens to you, then it’s over for the Luciano clan, and I believe you know what that means!” Mother spat, and I clenched my teeth as she moved closer and leaned to my ear.“Don’t forget, Enzo. This is your fault. If you hadn’t done what you did, I wouldn’t have to force you to give me grandchildren.” Her voice dropped to a dangerous whisper. “Don’t push me. Don’t make
Olivia’s POV I was going through a document when Alpha Enzo walked into the firm. Heads snapped, and greetings filled the air as he walked past, but then I noticed his eyes were only on me, and he wasn’t hiding it. Feeling awkward under his gaze, I fixed my eyes on the document until he walked past. Inhaling deeply, I pushed the thought of him away and continued working, but then I received a text message on my phone. Picking it up, I realized it was Alpha Enzo asking me to come over to his office. “I won’t,” I frowned and focused on the task given to me, but his messages kept coming. Grumbling, I ignored them until Sarah walked up to my desk. “Sir Luciano demands your presence,” she said. I frowned, but this time had no choice but to go to him. Leaving my desk, I arrived at Alpha Enzo’s door, pushed it open, and stepped inside. When I entered, I found him casually seated behind his table. His eyes lingered on me, but I ignored it. “You sent for me,” I said, sounding for
Olivia POVI don’t know how he did it, but I noticed for the past few weeks no DOM has been looking my way or asking me out for sex. They all ignored me like a plague. It even went as far as them whispering to any new member to avoid me. Well, I hated to admit it, but I love it. I loved that they were no longer bothering me.“Olivia, our shift ends by 7 a.m. Will you like to attend a party with me?” Sonia asked, prompting me to look in her direction.“Whose party?” I asked curiously.“A friend’s birthday party. Please come with me; I don’t wanna go alone,” Sonia pleaded, and I smiled and accepted.“Of course, I’m going. Anything for you,” I said and noticed the big, bright smile on her face.Just then, a text message came on my phone, and I picked it up to realize it was Alpha Enzo.“Come to my apartment after your shift.”I sighed and dropped the phone back. I would not go. After all, all he wanted was sex, and I wasn’t in the mood for it. I still cursed myself for not poisoning his
Olivia’s POV When I woke up the next morning, the first thing I did was check my phone. Still nothing from Enzo. Frowning, I got up and made my way to the kitchen, pouring myself a cup of coffee. The silence in my apartment felt heavier than usual, almost oppressive. I sipped my coffee and tried to shake off the feeling, convincing myself that Enzo’s absence was a good thing. Maybe he’d finally realized I wasn’t going to bow to his whims. I dressed quickly, choosing a simple blouse and skirt—my usual office attire. As I sipped my coffee and ran through the day’s to-do list in my mind, I reminded myself that work would be a welcome distraction from Alpha Enzo and his overbearing ways. By the time I arrived at the office, the atmosphere was as bustling as always. People shuffled back and forth with papers and files, the usual hum of voices filling the air. I made my way to my desk, determined to focus on my tasks and not give Enzo another thought. But as I settled into my seat,
Olivia's POV months laterThe city lights shined through the window of our hospital room, a sharp contrast to the sterile white walls and the faint beeping of the monitors. I leaned back against the bed, one hand gripping the railing, the other clutching Enzo’s hand tightly. The contractions had started hours ago, each one stronger and closer together, making my entire body tremble with effort. Enzo sat beside me, his eyes locked on mine, his face full of worry and love. “You're doing amazing, babe,” he whispered, his thumb brushing over the back of my hand. “Just a little longer.” I let out a shaky breath, trying to focus on his voice instead of the pressure building in my abdomen. My hospital gown clung to my damp skin, and the room felt far too bright. “I’m not sure I can do this,” I admitted through gritted teeth as another contraction surged through me. “Yes, you can,” Enzo said firmly, leaning closer. His tone was gentle but commanding, the voice of my Alpha, my husb

Third person POVThe wedding reception had gone on for a while, and after their first dance in the moonlight, they decided to leave and call it a night. They were cheered by the crowd as they left, and Enzo lifted Olivia and carried her into the house and up the stairs. He walked into the room and closed the door behind them. He put her down and pushed her into the wall, staring into her eyes before leaning down for a soft kiss, which quickly turned to an urgent one. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled down the zipper of her dress, so it pulled at her feet. They had done this before, but all of a sudden, it felt so new. His hands wandered all over her body, stirring primal heat in her belly. She was so cut in the moment, she did not notice when he brought his hands up to her lingerie which she didn't have the chance to showcase and tore it into two, she only knew that she wanted his mouth on the flesh he had exposed. Before she could get too impatient, Enzo pressed his lip
Olivia's POVI stood there, shocked at first, and then confused. Enzo has told me that we were attending a birthday party of a business partner, but it seemed he had lied to me. The restaurant was beautiful, much fancier than I expected. The soft glow of golden chandeliers lit the room, reflecting on shiny glasses and silverware. Everything seemed perfect, almost too perfect. There were also just a handful of people inside. Standing there were Sonia, smiling brighter than I’d ever seen her; Adams, who grinned like he had a secret; and Enzo’s mother, her eyes soft and full of emotion. There were also a few other people who seemed to be waiters. I still hadn't fully processed what was going on, and I turned around to look at Enzo with one of my eyebrows raised, and he just laughed. “What’s going on?” I asked myself softly. Enzo walked beside me, his hand lightly on my back. His touch was warm, but something about him felt different tonight. He wasn’t his usual relaxed self. He seem
Olivia's POV I woke up to soft kisses on my face. Smiling, I already knew who it was. I slowly opened my eyes and noticed Alpha Enzo kissing me on my face. I faked annoyance and groaned, but he chuckled and hugged me. "Good morning, mate!" he said softly, and I felt the familiar flutter of butterflies in my stomach. It had been a week since we discovered we were mates, and Enzo had never missed an opportunity to call me that. He called me "mate" literally everywhere—in the office, at the club. In fact, everyone knew I was Enzo's mate. Due to my pregnancy, I was advised to stop working at the club, and I agreed. Now, I only worked at the company. Enzo kissed my forehead and then leaned down to place a kiss on my stomach. I smiled and gently stroked his head as he softly rested it against my stomach. "I can hear his heartbeat," he said, and I smiled, knowing he was telling the truth. Werewolf fathers could hear the heartbeat of their pups just by placing a hand. "How do you know i
Enzo’s POV “Enzo…” I could see the shocked look in her tear-filled eyes when she realized I was awake. “You’re back…” she exclaimed through tears and hugged me, sobbing loudly. “Thank you, Enzo. Thank you for not dying. I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…” She blurted out too many words at once, but all I could do was remain numb in her embrace as her words resounded in my ears. I heard something—she said something. When she finally pulled away, she looked at my face with tear-soaked eyes. I could see the relief and excitement in her gaze. “How are you feeling?” she asked, wiping the tears off her face with the back of her hands. I narrowed my gaze at her. The words I heard—the ones that forcefully pulled me out of my unconsciousness—still resounded in my head. “Olivia, what was it you were saying?” I asked softly but curiously. Of course, I clearly heard what she said, but I couldn’t believe it. I wanted her to say it again. Olivia hesitated, fear and worry flickering in her eye
Olivia’s POVFor several minutes, I remained seated, holding Enzo’s hand as I cried silently, watching him remain lifeless. I wished I could turn back the hands of time. I wished I could have asked him questions instead of making such mistakes, which I am now living to regret.The door opened, and Enzo’s mother walked in. I held her gaze and could tell she had been crying; her eyes were red and puffy.“Olivia, the healers want to work on him, and you have to give them space,” she said softly. I nodded and looked back at Enzo, who remained lifeless. Wiping my tears with the back of my hand, I slowly stood up and let go of his hand.Enzo’s mother led me out of the room, and we descended the stairs, arriving at the sitting room where Adams and a familiar lady sat. I frowned when I recognized her as Clara—the same lady we met at the auction. She was the one who told me she and Enzo were once a couple, the one who showed me a picture of her and Enzo and told me he was dangerous. My brow fu
Olivia’s POV Her words hit me like a tidal wave, and I choked out a sob. “He still loves me…” I whispered, my heart aching with the weight of her revelation. “Of course he does,” she said firmly. “And you’re carrying his child. That means something, Olivia. It means you’re family now, no matter what happens. If Enzo wakes up and, for some reason, doesn’t want you, I will make sure you and that baby are protected.” Her declaration left me speechless. The woman who should have hated me was promising me safety, support, and a future. I didn’t know how to respond, so I just nodded, my tears falling freely. She straightened, her presence as regal as ever. “Rest, Olivia. You and this baby are my priority now. I’ll do everything in my power to ensure you’re both safe.” I nodded again but was still concerned and worried about Enzo. “Can I please see him? I really want to see him,” I pleaded desperately. Alpha Enzo's mother nodded immediately. “Yes, I will take you to him once you are d
Olivia's POV I came conscious to the sound of hushed voices around me. Confused, I forced my eyes open, and the first thing that came into view was the white ceiling. Then I turned sideways and met Sonia’s worried but relieved eyes. “Olivia, you’re awake,” she said with relief as she took my hand and gave it a small squeeze. I smiled faintly at her and then shifted my gaze to the other people in the room. The first person I noticed was Adams, his hands shoved into his pockets, wearing a blank expression. But then I saw someone beside him, and my eyes widened silently. It was Alpha Enzo’s mom; I recognized her instantly. Unlike Enzo, she had a relieved look on her face, seemingly grateful to see me. Confused, I swallowed hard and slowly sat up while Sonia helped adjust the pillow behind me. As I darted my eyes around the room, I realized we were in a hospital. Alpha Enzo’s mother stepped forward and stood beside me. I swallowed hard, bracing myself for her to lash out or yell
