(Olivia's POV)'

Rain pounded against my windshield as I drove toward Stone Pack Enterprises headquarters. The wipers fought a losing battle against the downpour, much like my emotions battled

against the memories this place evoked.

I gripped the steering wheel tighter. No way was I going to Ethan's Moonlight Manor tonight.

The towering glass building of Stone Pack Enterprises.loomed ahead, its illuminated logo a beacon in the stormy darkness. Five years ago, I'd stood in front of these same doors, soaked to the bone and desperate.

Back then, I'd come begging for money to save our daughter's life.

The memory washed over me as vividly as the rain outside. I'd been turned away at reception, the woman's voice dripping with disdain as she informed me that "Miss Victoria Frost is Alpha Stone's girlfriend" and that I needed an appointment. When I refused to leave, security guards had dragged me out into the rain.

Standing on the sidewalk, clothes plastered to my skin, I'd sent Ethan a text message that still. made me cringe with shame: "Please. I'll do anything. Lily needs the treatment."

Maxwell Chen had eventually appeared with an umbrella, escorting me inside through a side entrance. Ethan had been cold, clinical, offering me a shower and change of clothes before we "discussed terms."

I'd complied, desperate for the money that might save our daughter.

An hour later, I left with a check and the receptionist's knowing smirk burning into my back.

Pulling into the parking garage, I pushed those memories aside. Today, I wasn't here to beg. I

was here to demand.

I texted Maxwell Chen: "I'm here to see Ethan regarding Connor Blackthorn." His response was immediate: "I'll meet you at the executive elevator."

Maxwell appeared exactly as I remembered him-impeccably dressed, expression neutral, the perfect assistant. If he recalled our last encounter, his face betrayed nothing.

"Miss Winters," he greeted with a slight bow. "Alpha Stone is expecting you at Moonlight

"I prefer to meet here," I replied firmly.

Ethan stood when I entered, his amber eyes narrowing slightly.

"I expected you at Moonlight Manor," he said, his deep voice sending an

down my spine.

"I prefer neutral ground," I replied coolly.

He studied me for a moment, then turned to Maxwell. "Have dinner delivered here instead."

Maxwell nodded and disappeared, leaving us alone.

Ethan gestured to the seating area. “Please, sit."

I remained standing. "I'm here about Connor Blackthorn."

"And I invited you to dinner," he countered, his tone hardening slightly. "We can discuss

business afterward."

Before I could respond, Maxwell returned with several staff members carrying covered dishes. The rich aroma of venison filled the air as they set up an elaborate meal on Ethan's conference

table.

My stomach betrayed me with a quiet growl. I recognized the dishes immediately- venison medallions with moonberry sauce, roasted root vegetables, and forest mushroom risotto. All

my favorites from Amber Crest Restaurant.
