(Olivia's POV)
The parking lot outside Rosewood Haven beca battlefield. Ethan's grip on my wrist was like an iron shackle,
his Alpha strength making it impossible forto break free.
| fought against his hold with every ounce of strength | possessed. My wolf snarled beneath my skin, her emerald
eyes flashing
with fury as revulsion toward him flooded my system.
"Let go of me, Ethan Stone!" | shouted, my voice raw with rage. "Who do you think you are, to make decisions
for me?"
My anger was uncontained, my voice shaking as | struggled, but the Alpha
refused to release me. His amber eyes were
determined, his jaw set in that stubborn way I'd cto despise.
James rushed to my defense despite his weakened state. His russet-brown wolf rose protectively as he clamped
his good hand
onto Ethan's wrist, trying to pull the Alpha away from me.
"Let her go, Stone!" James growled, his hazel eyes flashing with protective rage.

But even our combined efforts were futile against Ethan's superior strength. The Alpha King barely seemed to
notice James's
attempt to free me.
James's face contorted with pain and frustration. | could see the regret in his eyes-regret for ever calling Ethan to
this place,
thinking he would finally see Victoria's true nature.
When words failed, James resorted to throwing a punch with his uninjured hand.
The blow was aimed at Ethan's jaw, but the
Alpha twisted away with supernatural speed.
In one fluid motion, Ethan pinnedagainst his Midnight Maybach, using my body as a shield while maintaining
his iron grip
on my wrist.
"Stop fighting me, Liv," he commanded, his voice low and strained. "I don't want to hurt you."
James stumbled backward, nearly collapsing from the exertion. His recent injuries had left him weaker than
usual, his breathing
labored as he prepared for another attempt.
Before he could move, Victoria's security guards appeared from nowhere. They seized James, pinning him
roughly against the
hood of the car.
"No!" | screamed, watching helplessly as they restrained my friend. "Let him go!"
James struggled against their hold, his wolf thrashing beneath his skin, but he was outnumbered and weakened
from his injuries.
Ethan noticed the roughness of their actions, his amber eyes flashing with Alpha authority. "Don't hurt him," he
commanded
coldly.

The security guards immediately eased their grip, still restraining James but no longer causing him pain.
| was beside myself with rage, my emerald eyes glowing with my wolf's fury as | trembled in Ethan's grasp.
"Let go of James!" | shouted, my voice breaking with emotion. "Ethan Stone, you've gone too far!"

My protective instincts flared for my oldest friend, the only one who had stood bythrough everything-
through Lily's illness, through her death, through my darkest moments.
Ethan's gaze was conflicted, emotions swirling in his amber eyes as he looked down at me.

"I don't wish to pressure you this way, Liv," he said quietly. "But no matter what, she's Little Orange, someone |
promised to protect for life."
His words only fueled my anger. Always Victoria. Always his precious Little Orange.
"Just this once," he pleaded, his voice softening. "Let her go, just this once. The last time."
| could hear the warning in his voice-not just to me, but to Victoria as well. But it wasn't enough. It would never
be enough.
"How can you excuse what she's done to James just because she claims to love her daughter?" | demanded, my
wolf howling with indignation beneath my skin. "Where's the justice in that?"
The scent of my anger permeated the night air, sharp and bitter.
Ethan's expression shifted, becoming more businesslike. "Maxwell Chen will contact him tomorrow," he said,
nodding toward James. "Whatever he wants, as long as it's not too much, I'll provide it."
He spoke as if this offer, bundled with the previous compensation for signing the Blood Heritage Confirmation
Report for Emma, would somehow make everything right.
"I can ensure he receives the best medical care, a position in Stone Pack Enterprises, whatever he needs," Ethan
continued, his tone reasonable, as if we were negotiating a business deal.
My disgust boiled over. He thought he could buy forgiveness. That he could pacify
us with material offerings while Victoria
escaped all consequences.
