She paused but didn’t turn around.

Ethan strode toward her, clearly intending to bring her back for the apology I demanded. But before he could reach her, Lucas Blackwood stepped between them, his tall frame creating a physical barrier.

“Alpha Stone,” Lucas said coldly, “please respect yourself.”

His wolf’s energy flared with territorial challenge, his gray eyes narrowing as he stared down Ethan. “My Olivia has nothing to apologize for.”

The possessive “my Olivia” cut deep into Ethan’s pride. A low growl rumbled from his chest, his Alpha instincts bristling at the challenge.

“You witnessed the assault,” I called from my wheelchair, unable to contain myself. “You know what she did!”

Lucas turned his cold gaze on me. “I saw nothing,” he replied smoothly. “Perhaps Ms. Frost injured herself in her eagerness to play the victim. Who knows? When a rabid she–wolf loses control, who can say whom she will bite?”

His usual diplomatic demeanor had vanished, replaced by open contempt. My wolf snarled beneath my skin, furious at his blatant lie.

“You’re protecting her,” I accused, my voice shaking with rage.

Lucas merely smiled, a predatory baring of teeth that held no warmth. “I’m simply stating facts, Ms. Frost. If you have evidence to the contrary, I suggest you present it to the Territory Enforcers.”

I quietly got into Lucas Blackwood’s Armored SUV, my hands still trembling from the confrontation. Through the tinted windows, I could see Victoria’s face contorted with fury as Lucas dismissed her accusations.

“Thank you,” I murmured as Lucas slid into the driver’s seat beside me.

He started the engine, his powerful presence filling the vehicle with a sense of security I hadn’t felt in years. “You have nothing to thank me for,” he replied, his voice gentler than I’d ever heard it. “That woman deserved far worse than what you gave her.”

As we pulled away from the police precinct, I caught a final glimpse of Ethan standing beside Victoria’s wheelchair. His expression was unreadable, torn between his true Luna and the she–wolf who had manipulated him for years.

Lucas drove in silence for several minutes, giving me space to process what had happened. Finally, he spoke. “Where would you like to go? Back to the Medical Den to see your mother?”

I nodded, too exhausted for words. The adrenaline was fading, leaving me hollow and drained.

I watched Olivia disappear in Lucas Blackwood’s vehicle, my fingers digging into the armrests of my wheelchair until my knuckles turned white. Denied both justice and sympathy, my plans for revenge temporarily thwarted.

“Take me to the Medical Den,” I said to Ethan, injecting weakness into my voice. “I need treatment.”

At the Silvercrest Pack Medical Den, Ethan ensured I was admitted quickly, but he didn’t stay by my side. Instead, he excused himself to visit Emma, leaving me alone with Dr. Samuel Wilson.

“These injuries are superficial,” Dr. Wilson informed me as he cleaned the cuts on my face. “The bruising looks worse than it is. You’ll heal completely in a few days.”
