The words hung in the air like a death sentence. Richard Winters‘ Alpha rage crumbled instantly, replaced by a grief so profound it seemed to age him decades in mere seconds.

His powerful shoulders sagged as memories of Sarah flooded back. Her gentle smile, her healing touch, the way she hummed while creating ceramic figurines with young Olivia.

Richard’s amber eyes, once blazing with fury, now glistened with unshed tears. The mighty Alpha who commanded respect from every werewolf in Riverdale looked utterly defeated.

“Sarah,” he whispered, her name a prayer on his lips.

Olivia watched her father’s transformation with a mixture of satisfaction and regret. She had

struck the deepest wound possible, and the victory felt hollow.

Through their pack mind–link, she spoke without words: *I’m leaving, Father.*

Richard said nothing. He couldn’t find his voice past the crushing weight of old grief.

Olivia turned and walked away, her footsteps echoing in the vast hall. Behind her, Richard

remained frozen, lost in memories of his beloved first mate.

After several minutes of painful silence, Richard slowly climbed the grand staircase to his private chambers. Each step felt like carrying the weight of the world.

In the dining room, Natalie Winters surveyed the elaborate feast she had prepared with such hope. Roasted venison with moonlight herbs, Olivia’s favorite honey cakes, imported wine

from the finest vineyards.

The table was set for three with the family’s best china and crystal. Candles flickered in silver holders, casting warm light over the untouched meal.

Natalie sighed heavily, her heart breaking for the fractured family she had tried so hard to heal. Years of effort, and still the wounds remained raw and bleeding.

She began clearing the dishes with mechanical precision. The food would go to waste, just like her dreams of family unity.

Olivia drove through the night toward Harbor City, her hands gripping the steering wheel with

white–knuckled intensity. The confrontation with her father replayed endlessly in her mind.

She needed alcohol. She needed her friends. She needed anything to dull the ache in her

chest.

Pulling into Nightshade Bar’s parking lot, she immediately called Lily. The phone rang twice before Lily’s breathless voice answered.

“Livvy? What’s wrong?” Lily sounded distracted, her voice slightly muffled.

In the background, Olivia heard Ethan Quinn’s low chuckle and the rustle of sheets. Her friend

was clearly in the middle of intimate bonding activities.

“I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have called,” Olivia said quickly, embarrassment flooding her cheeks.

“No, wait!” Lily’s voice became sharp with concern. “You sound upset. I’m coming right now.”

“Don’t interrupt your time with Ethan,” Olivia protested. “I have Emma with me for protection

anyway.”

“Are you sure? I can be there in twenty minutes.”

“I’m sure. Enjoy your evening.”

After hanging up, Lily turned to Ethan with playful annoyance. “You distracted me during an important call.”

Ethan grinned unrepentantly, pulling her closer. “Your friend will be fine. She’s a strong Luna.”

But Lily’s expression grew serious. “Something’s really wrong. I can hear it in her voice.”

Olivia tried calling Rebecca Frost next, but the calls went straight to voicemail. Rebecca was

probably still dealing with her mysterious business in America.

Desperate for companionship, she called Emma Thompson. Emma answered immediately,

her voice warm with concern.

“Olivia? It’s late. Is everything alright?”

“I need friends tonight,” Olivia said simply. “Can you meet me at Nightshade Bar?”

“Of course! I’ll be there in fifteen minutes.”

Next, she called Jade Mitchell, who responded with equal enthusiasm despite the late hour.

“I’ll bring my car,” Jade offered. “We can make sure you get home safely.”

Within thirty minutes, both friends had arrived at Nightshade Bar. The supernatural nightlife venue pulsed with energy, werewolves and other creatures mingling in the dim lighting.

They secured a private booth in the back corner, away from the main crowd. Emma

immediately ordered an assortment of moonberry wine and other werewolf–safe beverages.

But Olivia ignored the gentler options. She grabbed a bottle of moonfire whiskey and twisted

off the cap with determined fingers.

“Olivia, no!” Emma gasped as Olivia lifted the bottle to her lips. “That’s too strong to drink

straight!”

Olivia took a long pull, the liquid burning down her throat like liquid fire. Her amber eyes

watered, but she didn’t stop.

“What happened?” Jade asked gently, sliding closer in the booth. “What’s got you so upset?”

Olivia lowered the bottle, tears streaming down her cheeks. “My father wants me to sever my

mate bond with Connor. But I just don’t want to.”

Emma’s expression softened with understanding. “Is it because of Connor’s connection to

Frederick Warner? That whole revenge plot was terrifying.”

“Yes,” Olivia nodded miserably. “Frederick had connections to corrupt officials in Blackmoor

Territory. Father thinks Connor is too dangerous.”

“I can understand why Alpha Richard would be concerned,” Emma said carefully. “You were

nearly killed multiple times.”

Olivia’s voice cracked with anguish. “But Frederick is imprisoned now. His accomplices are

sentenced. The threat is gone!”

She took another drink, the alcohol making her emotions more raw. “Why can’t I be with my

true mate?”

Jade placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. “I understand your point, but I can also see

your father’s perspective. He’s trying to protect you.”
