Chapter 163: Hidden Bonds and Family Reconciliation

(Olivia’s POV)

Ethan Quinn sighed deeply, his shoulders sagging with the weight of reality. “Lily, they will know sooner or

later.”

Lily Chen’s eyelashes trembled as she looked down at her hands. Her voice wasn’t as lively as usual, carrying

a hint of sadness that made my heart ache for her.

“Ethan, I’m afraid… or let’s just forget it.”

The words hung in the air like a death sentence. I could see the pain flickering across both their faces.

Ethan’s tone became firm, his beta wolf instincts flaring with determination. “It’s impossible.”

His voice carried absolute conviction as he reached for Lily’s hands. “Lily, trust me, okay? I will solve this.”

Lily’s expression crumbled, sadness mixing with a deep sense of loss. “How do you solve it? Do you want our

families to sever their pack alliance to fulfill us?”

The weight of pack politics and family expectations pressed down on both of them like a physical force. I

watched as Ethan frowned and fell into silence.

His internal conflict between love and pack duty was written clearly across his features. The complexity of their situation seemed to grow heavier with each passing moment.

I felt a headache building behind my temples from this complicated pack drama. The romantic setup around

us suddenly felt suffocating.

“I will help you keep the secret, but this matter should be resolved as soon as possible,” I said helplessly, rubbing my forehead.

“It’s okay if I find out today, but if those who love gossip and chew their tongues see it, take a few sneak shots and sell them to the paparazzi, you two will be on the headlines tomorrow.”

I turned to address Lily directly, my amber eyes serious with concern. “It’s better to confess proactively than

to let them know from others.”

The truth always had a way of surfacing, especially in werewolf society where secrets were currency and gossip traveled faster than wildfire.

Lily remained silent, her gaze fixed on the rose petals scattered across the table. She was avoiding eye contact, and I could smell her fear and uncertainty about facing their families.

Ethan moved closer to embrace her, his protective werewolf instincts taking over completely. “Lily, with me

here, don’t be afraid.”

He whispered the words against her hair, his voice carrying all the tenderness of a mate trying to comfort his

beloved.

I stood up from my chair, knowing this was my cue to leave them alone. “I should go. You two need to figure this out together.”

“Thank you for understanding, Olivia, Ethan said quietly, his gratitude genuine.

I nodded and made my way out of the romantic suite, leaving them to navigate their complicated feelings in

private.

The elevator ride down felt longer than usual. My mind was already shifting to tomorrow’s plans with Grace

Winters.

I walked through the restaurant’s main lobby and out to the underground garage where my BMW sedan waited. The familiar weight of my car keys felt comforting in my palm.

As I drove through Harbor City’s evening traffic toward the Winters Family Estate, my phone buzzed with a message. I glanced at it when I stopped at a red light.

Adrian Sinclair had texted: “Did you arrive home safely? Please drive carefully.”

The thoughtful gesture from the fellow lawyer made me smile slightly. His consideration was refreshing after the emotional drama I’d just witnessed.

But my mind remained preoccupied with Lily and Ethan’s complicated situation. Pack politics made everything so much more difficult than it needed to be.
