“I don’t care about the cost!” Connor’s Alpha presence filled the hospital room with dangerous energy. “They will pay for their daughter’s actions.”
Frank bowed his head in submission. “It will be done.”
“You will oversee the acquisition personally,” Connor continued coldly. “Consider it your demotion from senior beta status.”
The words hit Frank like a physical blow. “Alpha, I understand.”
“You’re under pack review pending further investigation. One more failure and you’re banished.”
Frank’s wolf whimpered at the threat of exile. “I won’t fail you again, Alpha.”
Connor struggled to sit up in the hospital bed, his face set with grim determination. “Cancel all my appointments at the International Business Summit.”
“Alpha, the investors are expecting-“
“I don’t care about the investors!” Connor’s voice cracked with desperation. “I’m returning to Riverdale immediately.”
Frank’s eyes widened with understanding. “Olivia.”
“She thinks I betrayed her with Victoria. She’s blocked all my communication channels.”
Connor’s usual commanding presence crumbled, revealing the terrified mate beneath. “If I lose her, Frank, I lose everything.”
“Alpha, surely she’ll understand once you explain-“
“You don’t understand,” Connor interrupted. “She heard Victoria’s fabricated sounds. She believes we were intimate.”
Frank’s blood ran cold. The implications were devastating for an Alpha’s mate bond.

“Prepare the jet for immediate departure,” Connor ordered. “I need to reach her before she severs our bond permanently.”
“Yes, Alpha. I’ll handle everything.”
Frank left the hospital room with a heavy heart. His career hung by a thread, but his Alpha’s happiness mattered more than his own position.
Meanwhile, in her Luxury Penthouse, Olivia paced her bedroom like a caged wolf. She had blocked Connor’s phone number and all his social media accounts in her fury.
The images and sounds from that video call replayed torturously in her mind. Connor’s labored breathing. Victoria’s intimate moans. The rustling sounds that painted such a vivid picture.
Her wolf snarled with hurt and betrayal. How could her intended mate do this to her?
“I trusted him,” she whispered to the empty room. “I actually trusted him.”
The emotional torment became unbearable. Against her better judgment, she unblocked
Connor’s number.
She needed to confront him. To hear his pathetic excuses before ending everything between them.
Her finger hovered over his contact name. Then she pressed call.
The phone rang once before going to voicemail. His phone was turned off.
“Perfect, Connor Rivers,” she whispered through gritted teeth. “You’d better not regret this.”
Her wolf howled with abandonment. Even now, he was avoiding her calls.
Olivia threw herself onto her bed, but sleep remained elusive. She tossed and turned for three agonizing hours, her mind replaying the betrayal endlessly.
Around dawn, the sound of a car engine drew her attention. She peered through her bedroom window and gasped.
Connor’s Obsidian Black Bentley with Custom Plates sat in her building’s parking area.
Her heart hammered against her ribs. He had come back.
Footsteps echoed in the hallway outside her apartment. Emma’s voice carried through the door.
“Alpha Connor? I wasn’t expecting you.”
“I came to surprise Olivia,” Connor’s familiar voice replied. “Is she still sleeping?”
Olivia’s breath caught. He sounded exhausted but determined.
“She’s been awake most of the night, Alpha. Shall I announce you?”
“No need. I’ll see myself in.’
Olivia heard Connor’s footsteps approaching her bedroom door. Her wolf stirred with conflicted emotions.
“Emma, you may go,” Connor’s gentle but firm command carried through the walls.
“Yes, Alpha.”
Moments later, a soft knock came at her bedroom door. Olivia’s heart raced as she approached.

She expected to see Emma when she opened the door. Instead, Connor stood there, his usual commanding presence tempered by obvious remorse.
“Livvy, it’s me,” he said softly.
Before she could react, he launched into his explanation. “I know what you think you heard, but nothing happened between Victoria and me.”
Olivia’s fury reignited instantly. She tried to slam the door shut on him.
“Livvy, please let me explain,” Connor pleaded desperately.
But he forced his way into her apartment, using his Alpha strength to pin her gently against the door.
“Livvy, don’t send me away,” he begged, his voice breaking with emotion.
“Livvy, don’t send me away,” Connor murmured, his voice husky with exhaustion and desperate need as he gazed down at her.
“I flew back immediately to apologize to you. At least hear my explanation before you pass judgment-you can’t sentence me to death without a trial.”
Despite her icy demeanor, Olivia’s wolf recognized the genuine anguish in her mate’s voice. She grudgingly agreed to listen.
Connor briefly explained the evening’s events-Victoria’s deception, the wolfsbane poisoning, and his desperate fight to resist the chemical manipulation while trying to contact her.
Claim
Olivia’s anger began to subside as she sensed the truth in his words through their mate bond. But her hurt remained.
“Fine,” she said coldly. “But you’re not escaping punishment.”
