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“Happy birthday, my dear Olivia,” I heard my mother's usual cheerful voice pierce through my sleep, jolting me awake. Blinking my eyes open, I saw her seated beside me on the bed, her charming smile lighting up her face, her sea-blue eyes — the same ones I inherited — brimming with happiness and love.“Happy fourteenth birthday, my darling.” Mother's smile widened, and I smiled as I tried to sit in bed. “Good morning, Mother,” I greeted, rubbing my face with my hands.“Morning, my darling. Are you excited to get your wolf?” Mother asked, and I swallowed nervously, which she noticed.“You don’t have to be scared. If you don’t get your wolf today, you still have a chance on your eighteenth birthday when you might also find your mate,” she reassured me. I nodded, comforted by her words.“So, I want you to dress up and come downstairs; everyone is waiting for you.”“Alright, Mother,” I nodded while she kissed me before leaving my room.After she left, I stood to my feet and w
Olivia's POV Six years later The loud beeping of the alarm jolted me from my sleep. Grumbling tiredly, I opened my eyes, reached for my phone, and realized it was already 5pm. “Shit!” I blurted and jumped out of bed. “Damn it! I will be late again.” I grunted and rushed to the bathroom. After taking a quick bath, I dressed up, packed my hair in a bun, grabbed my things, and rushed out of my apartment. I was lucky to get a taxi, and in a few minutes, I was at the club. Hurriedly, I went into the locker room, changed into my uniform, and made my way to the bar. “You are late,” Sonia murmured. “I'm sorry, I had a class today, and after getting home, I decided to take a nap. I didn’t know I set my alarm wrongly.” I explained to Sonia, who nodded understandingly. “Well, you are lucky Sir Linus hasn’t come yet.” I sighed in relief at her words and got on with work. “A glass of my usual whiskey,” DOM Phillip requested as he sat on the long stool. “Alright, sir.” I nodded and went for
Olivia’s POV The crowd's reaction was immediate. Cheers and applause erupted as I moved sensuously, my body becoming a tantalizing silhouette against the spotlight. I locked eyes with a few of the men in the front row, their lustful gazes feeding my performance. Despite my initial nerves, I felt a surge of confidence. This was my moment to shine, to earn the money I desperately needed. As I continued to dance, I couldn't help but scan the crowd for familiar faces. High-profile businessmen and celebrities often frequented the club, their identities hidden behind masks. As I made my signature moves, my eyes met those of a masked DOM. He looked different and unfamiliar. Despite not being able to see the faces of Doms, I could easily recognize our usual members by the color and shape of their eyes, but this DOM, I was sure I hadn’t seen him before. He was fully masked, with only his lips and piercing green eyes visible. He was sitting in a VIP booth, his gaze fixed on me with an intens
Olivia's POVMy heart pounded in my chest, my breath coming in shallow gasps. The masked man with the scorpion tattoo, the one who had haunted my nightmares, was here, right in front of me. Years of grief and a burning desire for vengeance surged within me. How could it be him?I took another look at the tattoo and my eyes dilated. I wasn’t mistaken. It was him. It wasn’t a coincidence. He was the one who shot my father. He was here, my worst nightmare sitting before me.Quickly, I stepped away from him and saw his brow furrow. “Excuse me,” I murmured in panic and didn’t wait for him to respond before sprinting away.My steps were hurried and unsteady as I stumbled backstage, my mind racing with a mix of fear and anger. I pressed my back against the wall, trying to steady my breathing. My hands shook as I wrapped my arms around myself, attempting to calm the storm raging inside me.The scorpion tattoo. The assassin of my family. Here. Now. How could he be here? Was it a coincidence, o

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“Hi, Olivia,” I heard a voice call my name, and when I turned around, it was Adams, Alpha Enzo's Beta.Instantly, I frowned, already knowing why he was at the bar.“Good evening, Mr. Adams,” I greeted, trying to sound polite.“Good evening, Olivia,” he responded, his inquisitive eyes fixed on me. Ignoring it, I spoke up. “What do you want?”“Nothing for now, Olivia, but Alpha Enzo really wants to—” he paused and took out his phone, showing me the screen where Alpha Enzo’s name was displayed as he was calling. “He asked me to come to the club and hand my phone personally to you since you’ve been ignoring his calls and text messages,” he said, stretching the phone toward me.“I’m busy right now; I can’t speak to him,” I murmured, looking away.Adams was silent for a moment before he spoke again. “Tell me, Olivia, what is your deal?” he asked. I looked his way, furrowing my brow.“Excuse me?” I said, noticing the frustrated look on Adams's face.“Yes, Olivia, what is your de
Olivia's POV “His name is Adams. This is his contact. I have already given yours to him. In case any trouble arises, and you can’t contact me, don’t hesitate to reach out to him. He’s my good friend and my beta,” Alpha Enzo said as he stretched out a card to me. Reluctantly, I took the card and scanned through it. It bore the name Adams Stones, listed as an employee of the Luciano Group and Alpha Enzo’s beta. How come I haven’t seen him around? “Adams was out of the country; he just came back a few days ago,” Alpha Enzo said as if reading my thoughts. I nodded and slipped the card into my bag. My eyes went back to Alpha Enzo, who was putting on his shoes, ready to leave. I swallowed hard and got to my feet. “I’ll wait for you in the car,” I said and left before he could respond. Outside the mansion, a black, sleek SUV was waiting for us. I got in and settled in the back seat while my mind clouded with thoughts. I couldn’t explain it, but ever since last night, when Alpha Enzo
Olivia's POVAfter freshening up and having dinner, I sat on the bed and rested my back against the headboard while I watched Alpha Enzo on a call. The call seemed to be important, and since I was curious, I paid full attention and realized it was a werewolves and vampires meeting that needed his attendance. Through the call, I could tell Alpha Enzo was trying not to attend the meeting, as he kept telling the person on the other end that his beta would attend in his place, but the person refused. I watched him as he also brought up suggestions like making it a Zoom meeting so he wouldn’t have to travel to China, but the other person still refused.I watched Alpha Enzo sigh and end the call. Instantly, his eyes met mine, and we stared at each other for a long moment before I decided to look away.“I will be traveling to China tomorrow,” he announced, and I swallowed hard, nodding.“I will be staying for a minimum of two weeks,” he added, and my head snapped as I was forced to look his
Olivia’s POV *Two Weeks Later* “Are you okay?” Sonia asked, her voice laced with concern. I turned to her and nodded. “Yes, I’m just on my period, and it’s a bit painful,” I assured her, forcing a small smile. Sonia stepped closer and placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. “You should take a ten-minute break. I’ll handle the customers,” she suggested. I shook my head firmly. “There are too many customers tonight, Sonia. I don’t want you to overwork yourself,” I replied. “You sure?” she pressed, concern etched on her face. “I’ll be fine,” I promised. Sonia sighed, reluctant to leave the matter, but before she could insist further, a dominant voice called for my service. I quickly excused myself and approached the table. “Welcome, sir,” I greeted the man seated there. He wasn’t wearing a mask, which was rare in the club. His piercing gaze met mine, predatory and unsettling, as if he was sizing me up. He didn’t respond to my greeting or say a word. Instead, he kept staring,
