Chapter 24: Fury Unleashed
(Olivia's POV)
Victoria's startled cry echoed through the ballroom as | yanked the tablecloth with
all my strength. The expensive china plates crashed to the floor, followed by crystal glasses that shattered on
impact. Desserts, moonlight wine, and carefully arranged appetizers cascaded in
a chaotic avalanche.
"Olivia Winters, stop!" Ethan roared, his Alpha voice reverberating through the room.
Stop? | scoffed internally. | chere today to shatter Victoria and Emma's smug celebration,
not to bow to his commands.
| moved to the next table, ignoring the gasps of horror from the gathered guests. With one swift motion, |
upended another display, sending a chocolate fountain toppling over. Dark liquid splashed across the pristine
floor, staining the expensive carpet.
"She's gone completely mad!" Victoria shrieked, clutching Emma closer to her side.
| turned my attention to the gift table, where neatly wrapped presents were stacked in Emma's honor. Without
hesitation, | swept my arm across it, transforming the carefully arranged gifts
into a heap of crumpled paper and ribbons.
Emma's wails intensified as she watched her carefully planned achievement celebration being
systematically destroyed.
"My presents!" she screamed, her face contorting with rage and disbelief.
Good, | thought savagely. Let her feel a fraction of what Lily felt every tEthan chose Emma
over her.
Victoria's face had transformed into a mask of pure hatred. Her eyes narrowed as she lunged
toward me, her hands outstretched like claws.
"You jealous b***h!” she hissed, attempting to shovetoward the Multi-Tiered Champagne Fountain that stood
nearby.
1 reacted on instinct, grabbing her wrists and pivoting my body. Using her own momentum
against her, | pulled her forward, causing her to stumble directly into the crystal structure.
The fountain shattered with a deafening crash, Crystal shards exploded outward, showering

Victoria with razor sharp fragments. Several cut into her skin, drawing blood that blossomed against her pate

Her screams echoed through the room as she clutched of her face, blood seeping between her fingers
"Victorial' Ethan shouted, rushing to her side. His eyes were wide with concern as he gerely pulled her hands
away to assess the damage.
Emma tried to follow, but Ethan held her back with one arm. "Stay there, Emmy he commanded, his voice tight
with worry. "There's broken glass everywhere?
| turned away from them, continuing my path of destruction. The Multi-Tiered Moonston Celebration Cake had
already been destroyed by Emma's earlier fall, but several smaller dessert displays remained intact.
Not for long.

| upended trays of pastries, kicked over ice sculptures, and tore down decorative banners Each act of destruction
felt like a small justice for Lily, for every slight and cruelty she had
endured.
By the t| paused to catch my breath, the banquet hall lay in ruins. Frosting smeared
across marble floors, broken crystal glittering under the chandeliers, and food splettered
across expensive wallpaper
| stood in the center of it all, my chest heaving with exertion. A strange calm had settled over
me, replacing the burning rage that had driven my actions.
"Who called the authorities?" a stern voice cut through the chaos,
| turned to see two uniformed officers approaching through the debris strewn entrance, Behind them, Ethan
cradled Victoria in his arms, his phone still clutched in one hand,
It was immediately clear who had summoned law enforcement.
Victoria, seeing the officers, let out a pitiful moan. "Officer," she cried, her bloodied appearance adding weight to
her words, "she caused trouble and deliberately hurt people!"
The officers surveyed the destruction around us, their expressions hardening as they took in
the scene.
"Ma'am, we're going to need you to cwith us," one of them said, approachingwith
handcuffs.
| didn't resist as cold metal closed around my wrists. What was the point? The damage was

My gaze locked with Ethan's across the room. His amber eyes were unreadable, containing
depths of emotion | couldn't begin to decipher. Was there anger? Certainly Disappointment?
Probably. But something else lingered beneath the surface something that looked almost
like regret.
| stared back defiantly, chin raised. | knew he expectedto plead for his protection, to beg
for his intervention as Alpha. But he was the last person | would ever turn to again.
Victoria leaned heavily against Ethan's chest, her moans growing more tic as she
noticed the officers watching. "It hurts so much, she whimpered, pressing her face against his
shirt, leaving smears of blood on the expensive fabric..
Ethan's attention immediately shifted back to her. "I'll take you to the Medical Den," he said,
his voice gentle as he lifted her into his arms. He was careful not to aggravate her cuts,
treating her like precious cargo.
The officers guidedtoward the exit, their grip firm but not painful. Outside, two vehicles
waited a police car with its lights flashing and Ethan's sleek black SUV.
| was unceremoniously guided into the back of the police car while Ethan tenderly placed Victoria in the
passenger seat of his vehicle. Emma climbed into the back, her Crystal-Embroidered Ice Princess Gown still
stained with cake and frosting. Our eyes met one final tthrough the windows as the vehicles prepared to
depart in opposite directions - one toward Shadowfall Detention Center, the other toward the
Silvercrest Pack Medical Den.
| saw no remorse in his gaze, no hint that he recognized the injustice of what had transpired.
Only cold determination and concern for Victoria, never for me.
The police car pulled away from the curb, carryingtoward whatever punishment awaited.
Hours later, | sat alone in a stark detention room. The metal chair was uncomfortable, the
fluorescent lights harsh overhead. My initial adrenaline had long since faded, leaving
exhaustion in its wake.
The door opened, and Officer Benjamin Trent appeared. "Tto move you to a cell," he
announced, his expression professionally blank.
| stood without protest, allowing him to guidethrough sterile corridors. The detention. center smelled of
disinfectant and despair - a place designed to break spirits.

We stopped before a heavy metal door. Officer Trent unlocked it and gestured for
"Someone will be by with dinner in an hour," he said mechanically.
The door clanged shut behindwith finality. | took a step forward, surveying my
new
accommodations
a small cell with three other women.
A chilling premonition washed overas | noticed their predatory gazes. Before |
could react,
rough hands grabbed my hair from behind, yanking my head backward,
Pain shot through my scalp as one of the Crescent Sisters, notorious women known for
breaking new inmates, pulledoff balance.
"Look what we have here," she hissed into my ear. "The Alpha's mate playing
prisoner."
| cried out in pain, twisting to break her grip. My foot connected with her shin in a
desperate
kick, momentarily loosening her hold.
| stumbled forward, but the brief freedom lasted only seconds. The other two women moved
with practiced efficiency, grabbing my arms and draggingtoward a corner where a Rusted
Iron Detention Bucket filled with ice water sat waiting.
"No!" | struggled against their grip, but | was outnumbered and overpowered.
The leader grabbed my hair again, forcing my head downward. "Tfor your welcbath,
Luna," she sneered.
They plunged my head into the frigid water, the shock stealing my breath. The cold was immediate and
devastating, like a thousand needles piercing my skin.

My lungs burned as | fought against their hold, desperate for air. In a surge of
panicked strength, | managed to twist sideways, pulling one of my attackers off balance.
She toppled forward, her face splashing into the bucket. Sputtering and cursing, she pulled back, water
streaming down her enraged face.
"You'll pay for that!" The leader's eyes flashed with fury as she signaled to the
others.
They wrestledto the ground, pinningagainst the cold concrete floor. The leader straddled my chest, her
weight crushing the air from my lungs. Without warning, she delivered a series of stinging slaps to my face, each
one harder than
the last.
My head spun from the blows. | tasted blood where my teeth had cut into my inner
cheek. Still, I bit my lip, refusing to give them the satisfaction of hearingcry
out,
The cold from my soaked hair seeped into my bones, but the icy grip around my heart was far more chilling. This
wasn't random prison violence - this was too coordinated, too targeted.

| knew with absolute certainty that Ethan had orchestrated this brutal retaliation
for Victoria.
He had used his influence to arrange this "lesson" through the detention system,
proving once
again where his loyalties truly lay.
The leader, her eyes glinting with malice, nodded to her companions. "Hold her
down properly,"
she commanded, her voice low and threatening.
The other women pinned my hands to the floor, spreading my fingers against the
concrete. My
heart raced as | realized their intent.
The leader reached into her waistband and produced a Sharpened Metal Shiv, its
crude edge glinting under the harsh cell lights.
"Let's see you design those fancy healing crystals without your fingers, Luna," she whispered,
her face twisted with cruel anticipation.
My eyes widened in terror as she positioned the shiv above my right hand - my
dominant hand that | used for all my crystal designs. The hand that represented my only chance at
independence from Ethan.
She raised the makeshift weapon, aiming directly at the center of my palm. In that
moment, | saw my future crumbling beforemy career, my freedom, my ability
to honor Lily's
memory.
