Olivia POV

After a moment of hesitation, my feet moved almost of their own accord. I had intended to head toward his room because I was sure Ryan was still wrapped up in whatever work he had to do, but somehow, my steps turned back. I couldn't help it. The pull was too strong. And before I even realized it, I found myself standing before the study door again.

The weight in my chest grew heavier as I reached out to touch the door, the cool wood sending a shiver through my fingertips. I paused, taking a breath, uncertain of what I was hoping to find. Maybe an answer, maybe just a bit of comfort. But the moment I glanced inside, my breath caught in my throat.

Ryan, as expected, was in the middle of something. His headphones were on, and his attention was completely absorbed in the meeting he seemed to have just started. But then, he looked up at me. His gaze softened when our eyes met, and I felt my pulse quicken. Without missing a beat, he took off his headphones, pausing whatever conve

    Ryan POVI stared at Olivia's empty hand as she walked away. A strange feeling settled in my chest, an odd mix of regret and something else—something I couldn’t quite place. She was leaving, and while I felt sorry for her, there was this tiny, nagging sense of disappointment that I couldn’t shake. I had learned so much about her from the school records, how happy she was at camp, how she thrived there. It was rare, I thought, that someone like Olivia could find something they truly loved, something they excelled at. But now, that spark seemed to be fading, and I couldn’t help but feel responsible for it.I wasn’t sure how long I sat there, watching the space she’d just occupied, but eventually, I heard the low hum of voices from the meeting still going on behind me. I turned my attention back to the screen in front of me, trying to ignore the thoughts of Olivia that lingered in the back of my mind. My friends—well, they couldn’t see me, thanks to the settings I’d adjusted, but they co

    Olivia POVI felt as if I had just woken from a dream—a strange, vivid dream where I wasn’t rescued. The images were jumbled, but the fear was unmistakable. I had been running, fighting with everything I had left, trying to escape. And then, the men from the casino had found me. I had struggled against them, feeling my body weaken, the exhaustion threatening to pull me under. Just as I was about to be dragged back into their control, someone grabbed my hand, and with a sudden force, they led me away.My breath had caught in my throat as I was pulled through the maze of streets, hiding in alleys, the sounds of footsteps echoing behind us. We had found safety, or at least it felt like it. In the dim light of the alley, the stranger pulled me close, his arms wrapping around me tightly, as if to protect me from the world, from everything that was after me. His body was solid, strong, and I could feel the heat radiating off of him. He kissed me deeply, his lips pressing against mine in a w

    Olivia POVThe warm water cascaded down my back, soothing and steady, as I ran my fingers through my damp hair. Each droplet seemed to wash away the haze of sleep, sharpening my senses for the day ahead. My thoughts drifted as I rubbed the soap against my skin, the faint scent of lavender enveloping me. I lingered, letting the steam fill the bathroom and momentarily forgetting the unfamiliarity of the packhouse.Pulling myself out of my reverie, I quickly rinsed off and wrapped myself in a towel. The chill of the air against my damp skin sent a shiver up my spine, urging me to hurry. I slipped on a light dress, one I hoped struck the balance between casual and presentable, and headed out.The soft clinking of utensils guided me to the dining area, where Alpha Ryan sat at the head of the table. His posture was relaxed yet commanding, a contrast that always left me slightly unsettled. “Good morning,” I greeted softly, sliding into the chair opposite him. It was a bit silly to greet him

    Olivia POVHer question hung in the air, and I struggled to find the words, my heart pounding as the weight of her assumptions pressed down on me.The rack of elegant clothes loomed in front of me, every gown, dress, and jumpsuit shimmering under the soft glow of my room’s light. Emma, clearly proud of her display, stood expectantly, her eyes practically sparkling with excitement despite my rejection. My heart raced as I looked from the rack to her and back again."Well, Olivia?" Emma asked, holding up an emerald gown that sparkled with an almost otherworldly brilliance. "This would look divine on you. Imagine the heads you'll turn at the reunion!"I bit my lip, trying to form a coherent response. The truth swirled in my mind, too complicated to put into words. This party wasn’t some grand occasion; it was a casual farewell for my boot camp class. Showing up in a gown meant for a royal gala would be ridiculous.“I don’t think…” My voice faltered. “I mean, the party’s mostly for regula

    Olivia’s POVZara grinned, her eyes sparkling with mischief as I teased her about her heavy padded jacket. “What are you hiding under there?” I asked, folding my arms and raising an eyebrow.With a dramatic flourish, Zara unzipped the jacket and shrugged it off, revealing a stunning outfit that made me gasp. She wore a sleek black halter top that hugged her figure perfectly, paired with a high-waisted leather skirt that flared just enough to make her look effortlessly stylish. Her boots, knee-high and laced, added an edge to the ensemble. Zara twirled playfully, the fabric catching the light and shimmering slightly.“This,” she announced with a proud smirk, “is my real outfit. Perfect for the send-off party tonight.”I tilted my head knowingly. “And this wouldn’t have anything to do with Loren, would it?”Zara’s smirk turned into a wide grin, and she leaned in conspiratorially. “Okay, fine. Maybe it has everything to do with Loren. I considered it and confessed my love to him first.”

    Olivia's POVThe moment I reached the far end of the hallway, I let the tears flow freely. My chest heaved with suppressed sobs, and I clutched the straps of my bag tightly to steady myself. My flat shoes echoed faintly against the tiled floor as I hurried, my vision blurred from the salty sting of tears. I just needed to get away—from the disappointment in Professor Susan’s voice, from the lingering questions I didn’t want to answer.“Olivia!” Zara’s voice rang out from behind me, her hurried footsteps closing the distance. She grabbed my arm and pulled me to a stop. “Why are you crying? What’s wrong?”I wiped my cheeks roughly, refusing to meet her eyes. “It’s nothing, Zara. Just… let it go.”Her silence was unnerving, and when I finally glanced up at her, her expression was a mixture of frustration and concern. She folded her arms, her jaw set. “Let me guess. Alpha Ryan’s been mistreating you, hasn’t he?”I blinked at her, startled by the accusation. “What?”Zara nodded to herself,

    Olivia POVThe air felt stifling as I stared at Matt instead of giving him an answer to his request. I hadn’t expected to see him tonight, not after everything that had happened. A part of me had convinced itself that whatever fragile thread still connected us had been severed long ago.“Olivia,” Again, his voice was soft but carried a weight that made my chest tighten. “Can we talk? Just for a moment. Alone, please.”I wanted to say no. The words were right there, ready to escape my lips, but they caught in my throat when Zara gripped my arm and leaned close, whispering, “You should go. He looks like he really needs to talk to you.”I shook my head, panic bubbling beneath my calm facade. “Zara, I can’t—”“Of course, you can,” she interrupted, her tone light but firm as she began nudging me toward the door. “Don’t make the poor guy wait. Besides, it’s obvious he cares about you.”If only she knew the truth.I glanced back at Zara, trying to convey my desperation without words, but her

    Ryan POVI waved my hand, dismissing the murmuring crowd as their chatter began to rise again. The weight of their gazes lingered on me, but I didn’t have the energy to respond. My attention was focused on Olivia. I turned my body slightly to face her, and that’s when I saw her.She was pale, her face stricken, eyes wide, and lips trembling slightly as though trying to hold back words she couldn’t find. My chest ached at the sight, and I closed the distance between us, steadying her as her legs wobbled under her.“Hey,” I said softly, my voice low and steady as I placed a firm hand on her arm. “You’re okay. Trust me.”Before I could even take another breath, Ric appeared at my side. His presence was calm and steady, and I quickly gave him an order before he vould say anything.“Ric,” I said, my voice sharp and unwavering. “Go get the sorceress. Stephanie. Now.”He nodded without hesitation and disappeared as quickly as he appeared. I stayed by Olivia, my eyes scanning her face. She lo

My heart pounded in my chest as I clung to the faint hope that whatever was on that screen might save me.And then the moment hung, suspended in unbearable suspense.Ryan’s eyes, sharp and calculating, moved over Matt. “Is there anything wrong with your explanation?” His voice carried a quiet authority that made even the most brazen shudder.Matt flinched, the sweat starting to bead on his forehead. His throat bobbed as he swallowed hard, but he managed to shake his head. “No, Alpha. My explanation… it’s the truth. She texted me last night. I met up with her and she forced herself at me.”Ryan’s lips twitched, not quite a smirk but enough to show he wasn’t buying it. “Funny,” he said, his tone deceptively calm. “There are hidden cameras in this camp. One of them caught everything.”A gasp rippled through the crowd. My heart skipped a beat, and I felt every muscle in my body tense. I tur

    Olivia's POVRyan’s arm remained firmly around me as he turned toward the hallway, his voice sharp with authority. "You're safe now, Olivia. Just breathe."I wanted to reply, to thank him, to explain, but my mouth felt glued shut, my body trembling with aftershocks of fear. My heart raced like it was about to burst, and I clutched his shirt as if it was the only tether keeping me grounded.The sound of Matt’s heavy steps echoed in the hallway, and my breath hitched. He wasn’t far. I could see his shadow elongate against the walls before he appeared, disheveled, his face twisted with fury. Blood seeped from his hand, staining the sleeve of his shirt where I had stabbed him with the pen.“You,” Ryan growled, stepping forward and partially shielding me with his body. I quivered behind him, unable to meet Matt’s gaze, my mind replaying his earlier words and actions in a cruel loop.Ryan’s tone was calm but menacing. "You need to back off. Now."Matt smirked, his expression dripping with m

    Olivia's POV Matt’s grip on my arm was like an iron shackle, his fingers digging into my skin. I tried to yank my arm free, twisting and pulling with all the strength I could muster, but he only tightened his hold.“You’ve really sunk that low, huh?” he sneered, his words sharp and cutting like a blade. His breath was hot and heavy against my face, his tone drenched with venom. “Going after old men to pay your father’s debt? That’s pathetic. It’s disgusting, Olivia.”The words hit me hard, more than I cared to admit. My lips parted, but no words came out at first. How dare he? The audacity of this man to stand here and assume he knew anything about my life!“That’s not true,” I spat, finally finding my voice. “I don’t have some… sugar daddy, or whatever sick thing you’re imagining. You don’t know what you’re talking about, Matt!”He scoffed, his eyes narrowing as his mouth curled into a smirk that only fueled my anger. “Oh, really? Then explain why everyone keeps saying it.
