HappyNovelChapter 375
Emma Frost, banished from pack activities, witnessed Ethan stranglingfrom afar, her cries unheard and
unheeded as her wolf cowered in fear. She had been watching from behind a pillar, too terrified to intervene.
| was dragged to where Emma stood, my expensive shoes lost, designer socks torn, and manicured nails broken.
The pain was excruciating, my wolf howling internally from the rough treatment.
The guards dumpedand my wheelchair beside Emma, warning us to stay away from Silvercrest Pack
territory. "If either of you steps foot on pack lands again without Alpha Stone's permission, we won't be so
gentle," one guard growled, his eyes flashing with werewolf warning.
Emma rushed to my side, tending to my injuries with tears streaming down her young face. "Mommy, are you
okay? You're bleeding!"
Ignoring her daughter's concern, | slapped Emma, berating her for being useless. "You couldn't even warnin
time!"
Despite my anger, | realized Emma's usefulness in my current helpless state and decided against further abuse. |
coldly demanded to be helped back into my wheelchair.
Emma's small wolf whimpered but obeyed, still loyal despite the mistreatment.
(Ethan's POV)
Back in my Alpha Vehicle, | struggled to contain my rage. My wolf paced restlessly beneath my skin, wanting to
inflict unimaginable pain on Victoria without killing her, making her suffer for her crimes against my daughter
and mate.
The leather steering wheel creaked under my grip as | fought for control. Maxwell sat silently beside me,

| thought of getting evidence from Connor Blackthorn to bring Victoria to pack justice through proper channels
rather than vigilante violence. Legal retribution would be more satisfying than a quick death.
Remembering Olivia's accusations and Connor's initial claims of having evidence of Victoria's involvement in
James Knight's murder, | questioned Connor's sudden retraction. Something had changed his mind about
cooperating.
| recalled seeing Connor with Victoria at the Moonlight Manor and Connor's protectiveness towards Emma. The
way he had shielded the young girl from harm was telling.
| realized that Emma was Connor's weakness, the key to making the imprisoned wolf cooperate. His paternal
instincts toward her could be leveraged.
Arriving at the Northern Territory Detention Facility, | learned that Connor refused to see anyone. The guard
informedhe had been completely uncooperative since his arrest.
| asked to speak to Connor through the intercom, threatening to make Emma's life miserable if he didn't
cooperate. "Connor Blackthorn, if you don't see me, I'll ensure Emma suffers for your stubbornness."
Connor's agitated response, his wolf's distress evident even through the electronic system, confirmed my
suspicions about his attachment to the young girl. "You bastard! Leave her alone!"
Connor was brought to meet with me. Maxwell stayed with the facility guard to monitor the conversation.
| offered to temporarily care for
Emma until Connor's release in
exchange for the evidence against
Victoria I'll ensure the pup is
well-treated and protected within the
pack | promised, my Alpha voice
carrying the weight of an
unbreakable vow.
(Third person's POV)
Meanwhile, Victoria and Emma were
in a taxi near the detention facility.
Victoria realized that Olivia had
revealed her secrets to Ethan,
including her role in Lily's death and
her malicious actions towards the
true Luna.
Fearing Ethan's retribution, she rushed to the facility to silence Connor before Ethan could reach him. Her wolf,
though weakened from the earlier confrontation, was driven by desperation.
"Driver, hurry!" she commanded, her voice hoarse from Ethan's assault.

Inside the detention facility, Ethan
assured Connor that he would honor
his promise to care for Emma,
emphasizing that it was a minor
matter for an Alpha of his standing.
"The pup will want for nothing while
in my care," he stated firmly, his
wolf's scent conveying sincerity
despite their adversarial history.
Connor studied Ethan's face, searching for deception. The Alpha's amber eyes held steady, showing no signs of
falsehood.
Connor, torn between trusting Ethan and protecting Emma, requested a day to consider the offer. "I need tto
think about this arrangement."
Ethan and Maxwell left the facility, with Maxwell optimistic about obtaining the evidence and bringing Victoria to
pack justice, believing it would pave the way for Ethan's reconciliation with Olivia.
As they walked to the car, Ethan received a call from Maxwell, informing him that Evelyn Winters was being
discharged from the Silvercrest Pack Medical Den early.
Ethan asked. "Have the arrangements for the purchase of moonlight herbs been made?"
"I will be right over," he promised, his thoughts turning to Olivia and her mother's recovery.
