Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna

(Olivia's POV)

My focus wasn't on Ethan Stone's explanation about saving Victoria. His words about Connor Blackthorn handing over evidence struck me like lightning.

"The evidence has been given to the Northern Territory Enforcers," Ethan continued, his amber eyes intense. "It's irrefutable. Victoria will be punished by pack law."

My wolf stirred within me, a whine of relief escaping through our bond. Lily and Matriarch Evelyn could finally rest in peace.

My emotions crashed over me like a tidal wave. I couldn't control the trembling in my lips as tears filled my emerald eyes.

I looked down, covering my mouth with my hand. Large tears fell despite my efforts to contain them.

I was suppressing a silent cry of pain, my wolf's anguish echoing through my very soul. The road to seeking justice for Lily had been impossibly difficult.

The past scenes were deeply etched in my mind like silver scars. My Lily had been sleeping in the Sacred Moonlight Cemetery for nearly three years before she could receive justice.

During the thousand-plus days and nights after Lily's death, I couldn't eat or sleep whenever I thought of Victoria. The murderer had been living well under Ethan's protection while my daughter lay cold in the ground.

Finally, I had waited for the day when Victoria would be punished. Lucas was right - the wheels of justice turn slowly but grind surely.

Evil wolves will eventually face pack judgment.

Seeing my tears, Ethan's heart suddenly constricted. His Alpha instincts surged with protective anguish.

"Olivia, I'm sorry," he whispered, filled with heartache. He reached out to embrace me, his movements desperate.

If he hadn't mistaken Victoria from the start, none of the tragedies would have happened. He wouldn't have hurt me so deeply because of the misunderstanding.
