Chapter 258: The Alpha’s Desperate Return

(Third person’s POV)

Claim

Frank Langley’s hands trembled as he dialed Dr. Marcus Thornfield’s emergency number. The pack physician was staying at the Manor Guest Suite, on standby for any medical

emergencies.

“Doctor, this is Frank. Alpha Connor needs immediate medical attention,” he said urgently into the phone.

“What happened?” Dr. Thornfield’s voice was sharp with concern.

“Wolfsbane poisoning. A woman drugged him with derivatives. He’s fighting it but his condition is deteriorating rapidly.”

“I’ll be there in twenty minutes. Keep him conscious and don’t let him shift.”

Frank paced the presidential suite anxiously. Connor lay on the sofa, his face pale and covered in sweat. The Alpha’s breathing was labored, his ice–blue eyes unfocused.

“Alpha, the doctor is coming,” Frank said softly.

Connor’s only response was a weak groan. His body trembled as the supernatural toxins coursed through his system.

Dr. Thornfield arrived with his medical bag, immediately assessing Connor’s condition. His expression grew grave as he checked the Alpha’s pulse and temperature.

“The wolfsbane concentration is significant,” he muttered, preparing a syringe. “This will

counteract the worst effects.”

He injected the antidote directly into Connor’s bloodstream. The Alpha’s breathing gradually steadied, though his color remained dangerously pale.

“Frank, what happened to the woman responsible?” Dr. Thornfield asked while monitoring Connor’s vital signs.

“I handed her over to Shadowmere Law Enforcement. She’s been arrested for assault and attempted poisoning.”

The doctor nodded grimly. “Good. This could have killed him if left untreated.”

Frank’s wolf whimpered with guilt. His security failure had nearly cost his Alpha’s life.

“Doctor, will he recover fully?” Frank asked, dreading the answer.

Dr. Thornfield packed his medical supplies with practiced efficiency. “I can only provide temporary relief. The wolfsbane compound is unknown to me.”

“What does that mean?”

Claim

“He needs immediate hospitalization for proper supernatural medical treatment. Harbor City Memorial Hospital has the specialized equipment required.”

Frank’s heart sank. “I’ll arrange transport immediately.”

“No commercial flights. His condition is too unstable. We need a private medical jet.”

Within an hour, they were airborne toward Harbor City. Connor remained unconscious throughout the flight, his breathing shallow but steady.

Frank sat beside his Alpha’s stretcher, consumed by self–recrimination. His one job was protecting Connor, and he had failed catastrophically.

At Harbor City Memorial Hospital, Connor was rushed to the Intensive Care Unit. Dr. Thornfield worked alongside the hospital’s supernatural medical team.

Frank waited in the corridor, expecting the worst. When Connor finally regained consciousness, his face was still pale from the lingering wolfsbane effects.

“Frank,” Connor’s voice was barely a whisper.

“Alpha, I’m here.” Frank approached the hospital bed cautiously.

Connor’s ice–blue eyes focused on his senior beta with difficulty. “Report.”

C

Frank’s throat constricted with fear. He had dreaded this moment since the incident began.

“Alpha, I take full responsibility for the security breach. Victoria Hartwell gained access to your suite using my stolen keycard.”

Connor’s expression turned glacial. “How did she obtain your keycard?”

“She deliberately bumped into me in the Hotel Grand Lobby. I didn’t realize she had pickpocketed it until after the incident.”

Connor’s jaw clenched with barely controlled fury. “Where is she now?”

“In Shadowmere Law Enforcement custody, charged with assault, attempted poisoning, and breaking and entering.”

“And her family’s company?”

Claim

Frank swallowed hard. “Shadowmere Holdings maintains several cooperation agreements with Rivers Pack Holdings.”

Connor’s voice turned deadly quiet. “Terminate all agreements immediately. Begin hostile acquisition proceedings against their company.”

“Alpha, that will cost millions—”

“I don’t care about the cost!” Connor’s Alpha presence filled the hospital room with dangerous energy. “They will pay for their daughter’s actions.”

Frank bowed his head in submission. “It will be done.”

“You will oversee the acquisition personally,” Connor continued coldly. “Consider it your demotion from senior beta status.”

The words hit Frank like a physical blow. “Alpha, I understand.”

“You’re under pack review pending further investigation. One more failure and you’re

banished.”

Frank’s wolf whimpered at the threat of exile. “I won’t fail you again, Alpha.”

Connor struggled to sit up in the hospital bed, his face set with grim determination. “Cancel all my appointments at the International Business Summit.”

“Alpha, the investors are expecting-”

“I don’t care about the investors!” Connor’s voice cracked with desperation. “I’m returning to Riverdale immediately.”

Frank’s eyes widened with understanding. “Olivia.”

“She thinks I betrayed her with Victoria. She’s blocked all my communication channels.”

Connor’s usual commanding presence crumbled, revealing the terrified mate beneath. “If I lose her, Frank, I lose everything.”

“Alpha, surely she’ll understand once you explain-”

“You don’t understand,” Connor interrupted. “She heard Victoria’s fabricated sounds. She believes we were intimate.”

Frank’s blood ran cold. The implications were devastating for an Alpha’s mate bond.

“Prepare the jet for immediate departure,” Connor ordered. “I need to reach her before she severs our bond permanently.”

“Yes, Alpha. I’ll handle everything.”

Frank left the hospital room with a heavy heart. His career hung by a thread, but his Alpha’s happiness mattered more than his own position.

Meanwhile, in her Luxury Penthouse, Olivia paced her bedroom like a caged wolf. She had blocked Connor’s phone number and all his social media accounts in her fury.

The images and sounds from that video call replayed torturously in her mind. Connor’s labored breathing. Victoria’s intimate moans. The rustling sounds that painted such a vivid

picture.

Her wolf snarled with hurt and betrayal. How could her intended mate do this to her?

“I trusted him,” she whispered to the empty room. “I actually trusted him.”

The emotional torment became unbearable. Against her better judgment, she unblocked

Connor’s number.

She needed to confront him. To hear his pathetic excuses before ending everything between

them.

Her finger hovered over his contact name. Then she pressed call.

The phone rang once before going to voicemail. His phone was turned off.

“Perfect, Connor Rivers,” she whispered through gritted teeth. “You’d better not regret this.”

Her wolf howled with abandonment. Even now, he was avoiding her calls.

Olivia threw herself onto her bed, but sleep remained elusive. She tossed and turned for three agonizing hours, her mind replaying the betrayal endlessly.

Around dawn, the sound of a car engine drew her attention. She peered through her bedroom window and gasped.

Connor’s Obsidian Black Bentley with Custom Plates sat in her building’s parking area.

Her heart hammered against her ribs. He had come back.

Footsteps echoed in the hallway outside her apartment. Emma’s voice carried through the door.

“Alpha Connor? I wasn’t expecting you.”
