Emily’s POV

The room was dimly lit by a single flickering bulb hanging from the ceiling. Shadows stretched across the worn, cracked walls, emphasizing the emptiness of the space. The only sound that broke the oppressive silence was the low, pained groans coming from Olivia's father who was tied to the table in front of me. His body trembled with each agonized cry as he was whipped by one of my gusrds, but I didn’t care. No one would hear him here.

I leaned against the doorframe, my expression cold, as I watched him squirm. He wasn’t the man he once was—once proud, now reduced to this pathetic state. His pleas fell on deaf ears. I felt no sympathy.

“Please, young miss, spare me…”

"Shut up!" I snapped, my voice sharp. "You deserve this, old fool."

His eyes, wide and filled with fear, flickered toward me. "Please… Please spare me," he begged, his voice breaking.

I crossed my arms and tilted my head, regarding him with a mix of distaste and boredom. "If only you’d listened to me," I said

    Olivia's POV I stared at her, smiling. “So, Layla. How have you been?”She returned the smile, her small hands holding mine tightly. “I’m okay now. The nurses are nice. They let me paint and do puzzles. I even have new friends!” Her voice bubbled with joy.“That’s great, Layla. I missed you so much.”She grabbed my hand and led me to the bench where we sat down together. The soft creak of the bench under us was the only sound in the quiet space. I watched as Layla smoothed her dress and crossed her legs, her movements graceful, as if she carried the world on her small shoulders but didn’t let it show.“How have you been feeling?” I asked softly, brushing a stray strand of hair from her face.Layla tilted her head, thinking. “Better. The other kids play with me. They don’t mind that I… well, that I had to come here.” Her voice faltered briefly.“You’re brave, Layla,” I whispered, brushing a kiss onto her forehead.She smiled, bright and unwavering. “I have to be, like you.”My heart c

    Olivia’s POVThe moment my eyes landed on Ryan, standing several feet away from the car, a rush of relief surged through me. He wasn’t just my safety net—he was my lifeline. My chest tightened, and I realized I hadn’t been breathing properly until now.Ryan moved with purpose, his commanding presence slicing through the chaos as his voice thundered. “Guards! Ric! Take them away.”The group of men, the ones who had dared to hurt me, cowered under his authority. Pleas spilled from their lips, but their cries for mercy fell on deaf ears. Ryan's eyes were steel, his tone colder than I’d ever heard.“No one lays a hand on her,” he growled, the words sharp and deliberate. “You’ll answer for this.”My father, standing among the trembling crowd, stepped forward. His face was etched with defiance but also fear. “I was only trying to educate her!”Ryan’s glare cut through him like a blade. “Educate her?” His voice rose, a blend of fury and disbelief. “By what? Torture? Humiliation?” He stepped

    Olivia‘s POVRyan answered it with a sharp, commanding tone. “Who is this? And what do you want with Olivia?”The voice on the other end stuttered something incoherent, but the book voice sounded somehow familiar to me. However, Ryan’s expression hardened. “Listen, if you think you can call and harass her, think again. She’s not alone, and she’s under my protection.”Without waiting for a response, he turned, his jaw tight with suppressed anger. “Cowards,” he muttered, rising to his feet. “I’ll deal with all of you.”As he stepped outside, the faint sound of his voice carried through the door, firm and unyielding. Meanwhile, I sat there, my mind spinning.I sighed, my fingers brushing over the spot where his hand had held mine. The memory of his touch lingered, warm and reassuring. And yet, the almost-kiss replayed in my head, making my heart pound.I leaned back, closing my eyes as the weight of everything settled over me. Whatever was brewing between Ryan and me, it wasn’t simple. A

    Olivia's POVThe familiar sound of chatter reached my ears as I stepped closer to the gathering crowd. I hadn’t seen these faces in years, not since my mother passed away and my father hastily moved us to a cheaper part of the pack territory. I had buried these memories deep, but seeing them now was like unearthing a time capsule I wasn’t ready to open.“Olivia?” a voice called out.I turned to see a group of familiar faces break away from the crowd. They looked older, their features more defined, yet their smiles were as warm as I remembered.“Is it really you?” One of them, Lydia, asked, her eyes wide. Before I could respond, she threw her arms around me, squeezing tightly.“It’s been forever!”I nodded, my throat tightening. “It has.”The others joined, each taking turns to hug me or pat my back. The warmth of their welcome was overwhelming. These were the people who once filled my childhood with joy, the ones who stood by me when everything else felt uncertain.“Do you still remem

    Olivia’s POVThe house felt emptier than usual when Zara left a while after we arrived. Her presence had been a temporary distraction, but as the door clicked shut behind her, the silence enveloped me. The weight of Grandpa Ethan's death settled on me like a suffocating fog.I sank onto the couch, staring blankly at the ceiling. Memories surged unbidden—his laughter, the way he ruffled my hair, the kindness in his weathered eyes. My heart clenched, and the walls of the room seemed to close in.By late evening, I heard the familiar sound of Ryan’s car pulling into the driveway. I didn’t move, and moments later, the bedroom door creaked open."Olivia?" His deep voice carried a mix of concern and hesitation.Emma must have told him about my sour mood since I returned home.He stepped closer, sitting beside me on the edge of the bed. "What happened?"The question broke through the dam I’d been holding all evening. I took a shaky breath. "Grandpa Ethan… he’s gone," I whispered, my voice ba

    Olivia‘s POV“ I’m sorry, Olivia.” he said, his voice soft but sincere. “I didn’t mean to drag you into that back there. It’s just—” He exhaled sharply, his words faltering.The crowd hummed around us, voices mixing in a cacophony of indistinct chatter. Benjamin finally slowed his pace and stopped near a quieter corner, a faint flush creeping up his neck. He ran a hand through his blind hair, his shoulders sagging as if the weight of the world pressed down on him.I tilted my head, studying his expression. His usual snark was gone, replaced by a vulnerability I hadn’t seen before. “It’s fine, Benjamin,” I said, crossing my arms. “But you owe me an explanation.”He looked at me, as if trying the rear my mind and I asked. “Tell me how you got to know you're Beta Andrews son." His lips quirked up in a half-smile that didn’t reach his eyes. “Fair enough.” He glanced around, ensuring no one was eavesdropping. “After I was rescued from my captors and brought to the orphanage, I got to lear

    Olivia POVThe room was dimly lit with just the bedside lamps and the faint glow of the moon streaming through the cracks in the heavy curtains. The soft hum of the air conditioner filled the silence, but I stared at the ceiling, my thoughts swirling with fragments of the case.Ryan lay beside me, his breathing steady, a sure sign he’d drifted into sleep. I envied his ability to shut out the world, especially tonight. The library’s newspapers had yielded nothing useful—just vague reports with no real detail, no answers to the nagging questions in my head.My gaze shifted to him, his face serene in the faint light. His dark lashes rested against his cheeks, and a small crease lingered between his brows, as though even in sleep, he couldn’t quite let go of his thoughts. For a moment, I let myself admire him. He looked peaceful, unburdened. It was a side of him I rarely saw, and it tugged at something deep inside me.But the weight of the unsolved case pressed harder on my chest. With a

    Olivia POVThe room was again quiet after Stephanie's words. The earthy aroma of freshly ground roots and flowers filled the air as I carefully ground basil leaves with a mortar and pestle, the rhythmic motion steadying my nerves. On the wooden countertop in front of me sat a vial of shimmering liquid—the cure I had worked so hard to create.It felt almost alive, like it held the weight of everything I’d been working toward. My hands trembled slightly as I picked it up, careful not to spill a single drop.The mice in their cages chittered softly, their tiny noses twitching as if sensing the change in the air. I adjusted my gloves and took a deep breath. This was it—the moment to see if my work would pay off.I poured the potion into a sterilized dropper, watching as the liquid slid down the narrow tube. The precision of my movements felt like a lifeline. There was no room for error. I opened the cage of the first mouse, a small white one with bright, curious eyes. It looked up at me,

    Ryan’s POVThe whiskey burned its way down my throat, the heat doing little to numb the tension curling in my gut. I slammed the shot glass onto the table, the sound sharp against the low hum of bar chatter. Across from me, Luke and Andrew stared, their expressions ranging from amused to intrigued.Andrew leaned forward, swirling the amber liquid in his glass. “Well, damn. You’re really throwing them back tonight.”Luke arched a brow. “Did something happen? It’s not every day our dear Alpha comes to drink his problems away.”I exhaled through my nose, rolling the empty glass between my fingers. The bar’s dim lighting cast flickering shadows, but it did nothing to erase the image burned into my mind—the way Olivia had looked in the tower earlier. Half-dressed, eyes wide with innocence. It had almost messed with my control. The goddess knew I was just a tiny bit close to losing it and grabbing her to kiss the hell out of her. I just had to leave the room at the moment to ease off a bit.

    Olivia’s POVThe cool air kissed my skin, sending shivers down my spine as I stood there, half-naked, my body exposed under the dim bedroom light. My breath hitched as Ryan’s gaze darkened, his eyes scorching a slow path over my body—from my bare feet, up my trembling thighs, lingering at my curves before stopping at my shoulders.He swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing.A slow burn spread in my chest, warmth coiling deep inside my belly. My breath turned shallow. I knew that look.And then my gaze dropped—just for a second.My lips parted in shock.There, straining against his pants, was a sight I had no business staring at. A pulse of heat rushed between my thighs, and my heart pounded against my ribcage.Ryan stiffened. His jaw clenched like he was holding back something—something perilous. But instead of acting on it, he swiftly turned around and walked to the door.His voice, when it came, was shaky but firm. “Put on some clothes before you catch a cold.”The door shut behind

    Olivia’s POVThe afternoon sun spilled through the wide windows of The Silver Oak, a clean, cozy bar that Zara had suggested. We sat around a polished oak table, its surface gleaming under the warm light. Zara was animated, chatting with Lydia, Tina, and Lola. It was great but surprising how she’d recently gotten acquainted with them since the hearing. Benjamin leaned back in his chair, his arms crossed, looking mildly amused at their excitement.While they discussed trivial matters, I discreetly reached into my bag and pulled out the album I had decided to gift Zara. It was a limited edition featuring her favorite band, X Band. The glossy cover displayed their group photo, each member looking effortlessly cool and rebellious. My heart warmed with anticipation at Zara’s reaction.“Zara,” I said, stretching the album toward her. “I’m gifting this to you.”The moment the girls saw the album, they gasped in unison, their eyes widening.“Is that—?” Lydia’s voice hit a higher pitch.“The X

    Olivia POVThe next morning, Ivy and I began packing my things. The room was a battlefield of half-opened boxes, ribbons, and paper. There were so many presents that even looking at them made my head spin. Some were still sealed, their contents a mystery, while others were fragile—vases, crystals, or delicate jewelry that demanded careful handling.“This is insane,” I muttered, shaking my head as I folded a delicate shawl into a box.Ivy, with a clipboard in hand, glanced at me. “I’m going to get the full list of gifts from the butler. It’ll make it easier to check for missing items and classify them. Some of these things need to be bubble-wrapped.”“Good idea.” I nodded, still trying to figure out how to pack the jewelry case without damaging it.When Ivy left, I stood amidst the chaos and let my mind drift. My thoughts wandered back to yesterday’s discussion with Ryan’s mother. Moon Lake Pack had been mentioned again, and something about it felt off. I couldn’t shake the feeling tha

    Alex POVI did well to return home first before heading to the camp that evening. The plan was simple: grab my books and slip out quietly. As I pushed open the door, I immediately regretted not being more careful. My father’s booming voice echoed through the house.“Wow, our son is back, Maria!” He hollered from the living room. “Our dear spy.”I stiffened. I hated when he called me that, but arguing about it would only make it worse. My mother sat beside him, a stern expression already plastered on her face.“Oh, what took you all day?” my father pressed. “Did that family trap you there because they were receiving Olivia?”“No. I left after our meal,” I said, hoping to keep the conversation short.“Good. So, fill us in,” he demanded impatiently. “What happened there? How’s Olivia?”“She’s good.”“Good?” His eyebrows shot up. “That’s all you’ve got? Good?”Before I could respond, my mother interjected. “David, let him breathe.” She turned to me. “Did you see Diana? I heard she tested

    Olivia’s POVI frowned, my fingers clenching slightly against my dress as I looked between Sarah and standing before me.Diana.I didn’t know her, had never even heard of her name before today. Yet, Ryan's mother's look sold off that Diana seemed like one to cause problem.Before I could ask any questions, Sarah turned to Ivy. “Go report back to Grandfather Moore.”Ivy gave a respectful nod and left the environment, her presence replaced by a weighted silence.“Who's Diana?" I asked her.She sighed. “She's Grandfather Moore’s granddaughter.“What? She's your….”"No. She's not my daughter. She's Kelvin’s elder stepbrother’s daughter.”"Huh?” I blinked.Sarah exhaled slowly before turning back to me. “Olivia, I think it’s time you learned more about the family.”My brows knitted. “More?”She nodded. “Grandfather Moore had some illegitimate children before he officially married Kelvin's mother. That, unfortunately, led to too many people trying to compete for the Alpha position.”I stiff

    Olivia’s POVI hadn’t expected to run into Eva at the flower shop that day, and I certainly hadn’t expected to run into her here again. The last thing I wanted was another pointless argument, so I decided to ignore her and walk past as if she wasn’t there.But, of course, Eva wouldn’t let me go so easily.“Well, well, look who we have here,” she sneered, stepping in front of me to block my path. “The lowly omega who used a Gamma to cheat her way out of trouble.”I frowned, glancing around. Her guards now stood at a distance, they seemed uninterested in intervening. Maybe for now. I sighed and met Eva’s glare. “I didn’t cheat, Eva. And I certainly didn’t ‘escape’ anything. I didn’t do anything wrong.”Eva scoffed and took a step closer, her eyes flashing with barely contained fury. “Oh, really? Then why don’t you apologize for what happened that day?”I stiffened. “I have nothing to apologize for. I didn’t push you. I was trying to help you.”Eva’s lips curled in a twisted smirk, and b

    Maid’s POVI stepped forward, firmly blocking the path as Diana halted in front of me. Her golden hair gleamed under the disappearing sun, and despite the gentle smile on her face, there was an underlying sharpness in her gaze.“I need to see my grandfather, Acacia,” she said, folding her arms. “Move away." I remained unmoved. “I’m sorry, Miss Diana, but you can’t go in right now.”Her eyes narrowed slightly. “Why? I walked despite my legs hurting to get here, and now you’re stopping me?”I met her gaze steadily, keeping my voice calm. “I have no personal reason to stop you, Miss. But your grandfather is receiving a special guest today—Alpha Ryan’s girlfriend.”Her lips parted slightly in surprise, then pressed into a thin line. “I heard Ryan was bringing her over today,” she muttered, more to herself than to me. “I think her name is… uhh, Olivia.”“That’s right, Miss Diana,” I confirmed, shifting my weight slightly.Her face twitched, and for a moment, she seemed genuinely concerned

    Olivia's POVGrandfather Moore’s gaze was warm as he gestured toward the young woman standing beside him. "Olivia, this is Ivy. She’s one of the strongest female Gammas in our pack."Ivy gave a small nod, her short hair swaying slightly with the movement. She had sharp eyes, the kind that seemed to see everything without trying too hard. Yet, there was something calm about her—a quiet strength that didn’t demand attention but couldn’t be ignored either."It’s nice to meet you," I said with a smile. "You look really capable."Ivy smirked, crossing her arms. "I try."Grandfather Moore continued, "Given Celia’s… pregnancy experience, we thought it’d be easier for you to have a woman around rather than a man. Ivy’s one of our best, and she’ll be by your side to help when needed."I nodded. Now, I didn’t mind. In fact, I liked being around strong women like Ivy and Zara. There was something admirable about them—the way they carried themselves, the way they never seemed shaken.Ivy stepped
