Chapter 140: The Accusation

(Third person’s POV)

As soon as Connor Rivers‘ words came out, everyone present in the Rivers Pack Mansion was stunned. The accusation hung in the air like a silver blade, cutting through the family bonds that had held them together

for decades.

William Rivers stepped forward, his ice–blue eyes flashing with indignation. “Connor, what are you implying? That someone in our own family would betray you?”

His voice carried the authority of an Alpha who had led the Rivers pack for over twenty years. The suggestion that his household harbored traitors struck at the very foundation of pack loyalty.

Eleanor Rivers‘ face flushed with anger, her wolf stirring beneath the surface. “I followed your instructions exactly, Connor. I told no one about your plan, and I certainly didn’t contact any authorities.”

Her voice trembled with hurt and fury. The matriarch of the Rivers pack had never been questioned about her loyalty before, especially not by her own grandson.

Richard Winters‘ amber eyes blazed as he faced the assembled Rivers family. “I can vouch for myself and Natalie. We would never do anything to endanger Grace’s life.”

His Alpha presence pressed against the room, matching the Rivers family’s energy with his own territorial authority. The Winters pack leader would not be cowed in his defense of his family.

Katherine Rivers shook her head, her expression troubled. “This has to be a misunderstanding, Connor. No

one here would deliberately sabotage your rescue operation.”

Her voice carried the wisdom of a Luna who had navigated pack politics for decades. She could sense the dangerous undercurrents threatening to tear apart the alliance between their families.

Vanessa Reed’s violet eyes widened with apparent shock and hurt. “Maybe one of Olivia’s friends or colleagues inadvertently revealed the information? Sometimes people talk without realizing the

consequences.”

Her suggestion seemed reasonable on the surface, but there was something calculated in her tone. She watched Connor’s reaction carefully, gauging his response to her deflection.

Before Connor could respond, Olivia’s bitter laugh cut through the tension like a knife. Her amber eyes fixed

on Vanessa with deadly certainty.

“It was you,” Olivia said, her voice cold and accusatory. “You’re the one who told Ethan Grey.”

The words dropped into the silence like stones into still water, creating ripples of shock throughout the room.

Vanessa’s face went pale, her violet eyes filling with tears. “How can you accuse me of such a thing? I would

never-”

Her protest was cut short as Olivia’s hand connected with her cheek in a resounding slap. The sound echoed through the mansion like a gunshot.

“Olivia Winters, you are really uneducated!” Vanessa cried out, her hand flying to her reddened cheek. Tears

streamed down her face as she turned to Eleanor Rivers for protection.

Eleanor’s face contorted with fury as she witnessed the assault on her foster granddaughter, How dare you strike a member of this family! Your breeding shows through your actions!”

Her voice carried the sharp authority of a pack matriarch defending her own. The insult to Olivia’s upbringing was deliberate and cutting.

William Rivers‘ expression darkened as he stepped protectively toward Vanessa. “This behavior is completely unacceptable. Vanessa is a member of our family, and she deserves respect.”

His Alpha energy pressed against Olivia, attempting to cow her into submission through sheer dominance.

Connor immediately moved to shield Olivia from his family’s anger, his ice–blue eyes blazing with protective fury. “Don’t you dare threaten my mate.”

His intervention sent a dagger through Vanessa’s heart. The wolf she had loved for years was choosing

another female over her, even when she was the victim of assault.

Richard Winters, initially stunned by his daughter’s violent action, quickly rallied to her defense. “Before lecture my daughter about breeding, perhaps you should examine your foster daughter’s past behavior.

His amber eyes flashed with Alpha authority as he faced Eleanor directly. “Vanessa has made accusations against Olivia before, and now my youngest daughter is in the hands of kidnappers.”

His voice rose with paternal fury. “From the various behaviors of your foster daughter, Olivia’s slap must have

her reason!”

The challenge was clear and direct, one Alpha defending his offspring against another pack’s criticism.

Eleanor’s chest heaved with indignation, her wolf pressing against her human form. “You–Richard Winters, you-”

She struggled to find words adequate to express her outrage. The suggestion that Vanessa was somehow responsible for Grace’s k********g was beyond her comprehension.

William stepped forward, his voice tight with controlled anger. “Richard Winters, I respect you as an allied Alpha, and I am polite to you, but you publicly defend your daughter calling mine a schemer?”

The accusation hung between the two Alphas like a challenge to combat. Pack alliances that had stood for generations trembled on the edge of collapse..

Katherine Rivers sensed the dangerous escalation and quickly intervened. “Please, everyone needs to calm down. We’re all under tremendous stress because of Grace’s situation.”

Her Luna instincts recognized the volatile mix of Alpha dominance and family loyalty that could explode into violence at any moment.

William nodded reluctantly, though his jaw remained tight with suppressed anger. “Katherine is right. We need to focus on finding Grace, not fighting among ourselves.”

His attempt at mediation was strained, but he recognized the necessity of maintaining some semblance of unity.

Connor’s ice–blue gaze fixed on Vanessa with unwavering Alpha authority. “Since grandmother wants to call the enforcer, then call the enforcer.”

Chapter 140 The Accusati.

His voice carried the command of a future pack leader who would not be swayed by family politics. You, stay here honestly and wait for the enforcer to come.”

The order was absolute, brooking no argument or negotiation.

Vanessa’s violet eyes filled with desperate pain as she looked at the wolf she loved. “Brother, you don’t believe me… Regarding your life and death, how could I leak secrets to outsiders…”
