Chapter 9: Confrontation at Lunar Tower

(Olivia’s POV)

I stopped walking and turned around slowly. My emerald eyes met Ethan’s amber ones as I

faced him directly.

“Ethan Stone, since Lily was born, you haven’t taken care of her for a single day. How dare you accuse me here?” My voice remained steady despite the pain that flared in my chest at the mention of my deceased daughter.

Ethan’s jaw tightened visibly. His eyes narrowed as he stepped closer, towering over me with

his imposing presence.

“I provided everything for both of you,” he growled, his voice sharp enough to cut glass. “A

home, money, security-”

“Everything except your time and love,” I cut in, refusing to be intimidated. “The only things Lily

ever wanted from you.”

My words hung in the air between us like a challenge. I could see the muscle in his jaw twitch

with anger.

Emma tugged at Victoria’s hand, her small face scrunched up in indignation. Her voice was

shrill and demanding.

“Daddy is very busy! He’s the Alpha King!” she declared with the self–importance only a child.

could muster.

Victoria nodded, placing a protective hand on Emma’s shoulder. Her perfectly manicured nails

gleamed under the light.

“Emma’s right, Olivia. You should be more understanding of Ethan’s position,” she said, her

voice dripping with false kindness.

She stepped forward, her voice softening with practiced sympathy. “It’s not entirely Ethan’s fault that Lily didn’t have a close relationship with her father. Perhaps if you had tried harder

to bring them together instead of keeping her to yourself…”

My blood boiled at her audacity. The nerve of this woman to lecture me about my own daughter!

“This doesn’t concern you. Stay out of it,” I snapped, my patience finally breaking.

Victoria immediately adopted a hurt expression. Her blue eyes filled with tears as she turned to Ethan, pressing herself against his side like a wounded animal seeking protection.

“I was only trying to help,” she whispered, loud enough for me to hear.

It was a performance worthy of an award. I had seen this act countless times before.

Ethan’s expression darkened further. His arm wrapped protectively around Victoria’s shoulders, pulling her closer.

“You need to calm down,” he warned me, his voice cold.

I looked at their performance with disgust. The way Victoria manipulated him was so obvious to everyone except Ethan himself.

“Victoria Frost, why are you so good at pretending?” The words escaped my lips before I could

stop them.

The word “pretending” seemed to trigger something in Ethan. His amber eyes glowed with fury, the wolf within him rising to the surface.

“Watch your mouth,” he warned, his voice dropping to a dangerous growl. “You don’t get to

speak to her that way.”

Victoria quickly placed a gentle hand on his chest, playing the peacemaker. Her eyes were

wide with apparent concern.

“Please don’t be angry with her for my sake, Ethan. I’m fine, really,” she said softly.

What a perfect little act they had rehearsed. I couldn’t stomach their charade any longer.

Without another word, I turned and walked toward the entrance of Lunar Tower. My hand clutched my portfolio tighter, focusing on why I was really here.

This competition was for Lily. Not for my wounded pride or Ethan’s misplaced anger.

The glass doors slid open silently as I approached. Inside, the modern lobby bustled with activity as competition participants and judges moved purposefully through the space.

I checked my watch. Fifteen minutes before the competition began.

My eyes felt heavy from lack of sleep. I’d spent countless nights perfecting my Moonstone Crystal Design, pouring all my knowledge and grief into it.

The Moonlight Refreshment Room was located on the same floor as the competition hall. I

headed there, hoping a cup of herbal tea would help sharpen my focus.

The room was empty when I entered. Sleek countertops lined one wall with an array of teas specially selected to enhance creativity.

I selected a blend of moonlight herb and lavender, known for improving mental clarity. As the water heated, I heard the door open behind me.

Victoria entered alone, her blue eyes immediately finding mine. She smiled sweetly as she approached, her heels clicking on the polished floor.

“Preparing for the competition?” she asked, her voice light and conversational.

I ignored her, focusing on preparing my tea. The water began to boil in the dispenser.

the room as Emma turned and ran back out.

was unmistakable – an Alpha shielding his chosen mate.

I moved toward the door, my face expressionless. This wasn’t my problem, and I had a

competition to focus on.

“Olivia,” Ethan’s voice stopped me. “Where do you think you’re going?”

I turned slowly to face him. His amber eyes were cold with fury, the warmth he’d shown

Victoria completely absent.

“You deliberately scalded Victoria,” he accused, his voice low and threatening. “And now you’re

walking away without even apologizing?”

I raised an eyebrow, refusing to be intimidated. “I didn’t scald her.”

Ethan’s jaw tightened. His hands clenched into fists at his sides.

“Her hands are crucial for the competition, Olivia. How could you be so cruel?” he demanded.

His amber eyes bore into mine, searching for any sign of guilt. I met his gaze steadily,

unwavering.

“Where’s your evidence that I scalded her?” I asked calmly.

Emma stepped forward, clinging to Ethan’s leg. Her small face was twisted with righteous indignation that looked rehearsed.

“I saw you!” she declared, pointing an accusing finger at me. “You pushed Mommy’s hand

under the hot water! I saw everything!”

Ethan looked down at Emma, then back at me. His expression hardened with absolute

certainty.

“Emma’s words are the evidence! She is only five years old, still a child, how could she lie?!”

I stared at the child, noting the calculated gleam in her eyes that belied her innocent appearance. Like mother, like daughter.
