(Olivia's POV)
"Ethan Stone, do you have any humanity left at demanding release.

I!" My voice trembled with hatred as my wolf surged beneath my skin,

My emerald eyes flashed dangerously, claws threatening to emerge from my fingertips. If I could, | would have
torn the Alpha King apart with my bare hands. Was Emma Frost really so important to him, important enough
that he could cast everything else aside-including James Knight, who had been crippled for refusing to donate his
kidney?
The rage that had been building since I'd seen James in that hospital bed

consumedentirely. My wolf howled for justice-for Lily, for James, for all the pain this man had caused.
In a blur of werewolf speed, | rushed toward Ethan, who had one arm cradling Emma and the other holding a
bowl of steaming venison broth.
Reacting with Alpha instincts, Ethan shielded Emma in his embrace. The scalding liquid cascaded down his own
back and arm, leaving his skin red and raw beneath his rolled-up sleeves. His wolf growled at the pain but
remained protective of the pup in his
atms.
He ignored his discomfort, checking Emma anxiously. “Emma, are you alright? Did you get burned?"
Emma, pale and shaken, cried harder with concern for her father figure. Her wolf whimpered as she blew on his
burned arm. "Ethan, does it hurt?"
Ethan stroked her head tenderly. "I don't hurt."
Yet when he turned to me, his amber eyes were sharp with accusation, his Alpha pheromones filling the room
with warning. “Liv, don't you know what Emma's going through? She's already suffering so much-what are you
doing?"
The old wound of his favoritism for Emma reopened in my heart. A fresh wave of anger and resentment surged
as | remembered the injustices Lily had suffered in this spack. Did he ever spare a thought for Lily, the
daughter he'd neglected?
Unable to contain myself, | slapped Ethan across the face with werewolf strength, leaving red marks that would
have broken human bones
"How dare you ask what I'm doing? You know exactly what you've done!" | shouted, my voice breaking with
emotion. "For Emma's life, you'll do anything you even tried to trade James Knight's life for hers. Ethan Stone,
you deserve the worst!"
Ethan was stunned, his wolf recoiling in confusion, not understanding my reference. Before he could question
me, Emma intervened.
"Luna Olivia, you don't like me. If you don't like me, just hit me, but don't hit Ethan." She spread her arms
protectively in front of him, her young wolf rising to defend her Alpha despite her weakened state.

At that moment, a commotion from the adjoining room signaled Victoria Frost's arrival. She wheeled herself in,

with accusation.
"Olivia Winters, what are you trying to do? Hurtingover and over isn't enough for you-now you want to hurt
Emma too?
Will you only be satisfied if she dies?"
With the pretense of motherly love, she wheeled herself at me, hoping to knockinto the shards on the
ground and ruin my face. However, | swiftly kicked the wheelchair, sending Victoria sprawling, my wolf snarling
in satisfaction at the sight of my enemy on the floor.
Emma immediately broke into fresh sobs, her wolf crying out in distress as she worried for her mother and tried
to get out of bed to help.
Ethan comforted Emma with gentle pheromones that calmed her inner wolf. "Stay in bed, princess. I'll help your
mother."
Seizing this moment, Emma grabbed my arm, her little fingernails digging in as she shrieked, "Get out! You're a
bad wolf! You hit Ethan and hurt my mommy! | hate you! You're not welcin our pack!"
| was disgusted by the manipulative behavior so similar to Victoria's. With a growl, | flung Emma's hand away.
Yet, in a move I'd seen her mother perform and learned from observation, Emma deliberately threw herself
backward, hitting her head against the bed with a loud thud and blacking out. Her wolf retreated deep within her
in apparent shock.
