(Harrison’s POV)
I chuckled to myself, watching this beautiful she–wolf with growing amusement. Although she could clearly play golf, females usually weren’t very strong in their human forms. It wasn’t certain whether she could hit the green at all.
Even if she managed it, it would probably take eight or nine strokes. It was worth losing a little money for a smile from such a stunning creature.
Olivia Winters smiled, her amber eyes glinting with hidden cunning. “It’s boring to gamble for money. Let’s gamble for something else.”
My predatory interest was immediately piqued. “What does Lawyer Winters want to bet on?”
Her wolf seemed to stir with confidence as she proposed her counter–offer. “If I can get the ball on the green
within ten strokes, Alpha Harrison will sign a one–year legal advisory contract and case agency contract with
our law firm.”
She paused, letting the weight of her words sink in. “If it’s one stroke less, we’ll sign for one more year. If I can get the ball on the green in one stroke, we’ll sign a ten–year contract all at once.”
Her smile turned predatory. “All the cases of Apex Industries must be entrusted to our firm for agency within ten years. How about it?”
I found myself genuinely impressed by her audacity. This little she–wolf was quite intelligent–not greedy for the small money of one or two hundred thousand, but planning a big deal in her heart.
Her wolf was clearly more ambitious than I’d initially assumed. Apex Industries was such a massive corporation, and the volume of cases in a year was enough to support their entire law firm for a whole year.
I had definitely underestimated her pack instincts for business.
I turned my head and joked to Thomas Wilson with a knowing smile. “Director Wilson, where did you recruit Lawyer Winters from? She’s so dedicated and responsible, always thinking about the interests of your firm.” My wolf was enjoying this unexpected challenge. “I’m almost tempted to poach her to my company as in–house legal counsel.”
Thomas replied with a diplomatic smile. “Haha, Alpha Harrison, you’re too kind.”
I found the challenge intriguing and agreed with an indulgent grin. “Since Lawyer Winters proposed using contract signing as stakes, then let’s do it this way. As long as Lawyer Winters is satisfied with the arrangement.”
Olivia smiled sweetly. “Excellent.”
The caddie handed over a custom golf club, and Olivia took it. She tested its weight and balance with practiced movements that beljed her earlier modest claims.
I watched appreciatively, my Alpha ego still convinced of my advantage. “Not bad, not bad! Lawyer Winters looks very talented indeed.”

Olivia smiled mysteriously. “Alpha Harrison, you’re too generous with your praise.
Before I could fully process the predatory grace in her posture–so reminiscent of a wolf preparing to strike Olivia had already executed a perfect swing.
The fluid expertise of years of training was unmistakable. The small white ball traced a flawless are through the air and landed with precision directly on the green.
My confident expression froze in complete shock.
Thomas Wilson watched in amazement as Olivia achieved what seemed impossible–a hole–in–one on her first attempt. The director of Moonlaw Legal Services couldn’t help but clap enthusiastically.
“Magnificent shot!”
Olivia walked to the green with the confident stride of a victorious wolf. She putted the ball into the hote with elegant precision, then turned back with a radiant smile that made her amber eyes sparkle like captured sunlight.
“Alpha Harrison, one stroke on the green. According to our agreement, Apex Industries will sign a ten–year agency contract and legal advisory contract with Moonlaw Legal Services.”
I finally recovered from my stunned silence and couldn’t help but applaud. My expression mixed admiration with the realization I’d been thoroughly outplayed.
“Incredible! I had no idea Lawyer Winters possessed such exceptional golfing skills. That technique rivals professional players.”
I shook my head in amazement. “When you said you ‘knew a little,‘ you were being far too modest.”
Olivia’s lips curved in a satisfied smile, her wolf clearly pleased with the successful hunt. “Alpha Harrison is
too kind.”
Thomas stood nearby, practically glowing with triumph. A ten–year legal advisory and agency contract represented the largest deal in his firm’s history, secured in a single brilliant stroke.
(Connor’s POV)
From across the course, Derek nudged me with his elbow and gestured toward Olivia’s group. “Your former fiancée is quite remarkable. One stroke on the green–that form and precision could rival professional tournament players.”
I turned to observe, and Derek caught a fleeting expression cross my features before my mask of indifference
returned.
“Livvy won the national youth championship during her high school years,” I said, unable to keep the subtle note of warmth from my voice.
Derek’s eyebrows rose with interest. “Ah, there’s that look again–like a proud Alpha whose mate just claimed
victory.”
My expression softened involuntarily, my wolf stirring with protective pride. “She’s always been exceptional.” Derek followed my intense gaze toward the celebrating group. “I wonder what those two businessn. discussing with her–they look quite pleased with themselves.”

As soon as Derek spoke, the tenderness and pride on my face vanished. It was replaced by the cold mask of

an Alpha whose territory was being encroached upon.
I handed my golf club to the waiting caddie with controlled precision. Then I began walking toward Olivia’s group with predatory purpose.
Derek called after me with growing amusement. “Connor? Where are you going?”
My response was clipped and devoid of warmth, my Alpha instincts clearly triggered. To discuss business
matters.”
Derek’s confusion was evident. “Business? With whom?”
He followed my line of sight to the three figures engaged in animated conversation near the green.
Understanding dawned immediately.
Derek smiled to himself with knowing satisfaction. My legendary patience had finally reached its limit after watching two older Alphas circle around my intended mate like predators stalking prey.
The territorial jealousy was practically radiating from me in waves that even Derek’s wolf could sense.
I positioned myself directly in front of Olivia. My imposing Alpha presence cast a shadow over her smaller form in a deliberate display of protection and possession.
Olivia stood within my shadow and looked up at me with those luminous amber eyes that still made my
chest tighten with longing.
Today I wore dark gray athletic attire that emphasized my powerful build. I maintained my characteristic air of aloof control despite the territorial fury burning beneath the surface.
Olivia’s expression showed puzzlement at my sudden appearance. Why was I approaching their group again? Harrison was equally bewildered by this unprecedented attention from me. He rarely encountered me in business circles, and when he did, I typically ignored such approaches entirely.
What could possibly motivate me to initiate contact twice in one day?
I maintained my relaxed posture with hands casually in my pockets. My wolf prowled restlessly beneath the surface, but my tone remained deceptively casual.
“Alpha Harrison, I recall you mentioning interest in a partnership with our Starfall Hotels division.” Starfall was one of the premier hospitality brands under Rivers Group’s extensive business empire. Hearing that I had personally initiated discussion about the coveted partnership, Harrison immediately straightened with eager deference. His previous confidence around Olivia was forgotten in the face of this business opportunity.
“Yes, absolutely, Alpha Connor! Apex Industries has been hoping to establish a partnership with Starfall for
