Chapter 336

(Olivia's POV)

"Liv, it's true, I didn't lie to you. As soon as I learned there was another compatible donor, I immediately redirected Emma's

glass. "Thank you for your mercy, Alpha?"

Ethan flinched at my tone, his wolf visibly recoiling.

"Don't you dare try to justify what you did," I continued, each word precise and venomous. “The only reason things played out this way was sheer luck-a last- minute donor appeared. If no donor had been found, you would have sacrificed James without

hesitation."

I stepped closer, my emerald eyes boring into his. "Once again, you abandoned Lily and James's feelings for Victoria and Emma, just like you abandoned Lily herself."

Ethan's face paled with each accusation, the physical pain from his wounds nothing compared to the anguish in his eyes.
