spanng="EN"(God’s POV)

spanng="EN"The pack omegas froze at Olivia’smand. They had served their Luna for years, but never had they seen such raw hatred burning in her grey eyes.

spanng="EN"The look was terrifying. It was the gaze of a she–wolf who had nothing left to lose.

spanng="EN"They swarmed ra without hesitation. Their fists and ws found their target as ra’s screams echoed through the empty manor halls.

spanng="EN"“Luna, I was wrong! I was wrong!” ra shrieked, her voice cracking with desperation. “Everything I said was a lie! I just wanted to make you angry!”

spanng="EN"Blood streamed from her nose and split lip. Her carefully styled hair was now a tangled mess.

spanng="EN"But Olivia stood motionless, her face carved from stone. She gave no signal to stop.

spanng="EN"The omegas continued their assault, their loyalty to their Luna absolute.

spanng="EN"Suddenly, the manor doors burst open. Leo rushed in, his small frame trembling with fury.

spanng="EN"“Stop it!” he screamed, pushing the omegas away from ra’s crumpled form. “How dare you hit someone!”

spanng="EN"His young eyes zed as he red at his mother. The look cut through Olivia deeper than any physical wound.

spanng="EN"“Mom! Why do you keep bullying Aunt ra?” Leo’s voice shook with righteous anger. “You’re as hateful as the Demon!”

spanng="EN"Each word was a dagger to Olivia’s heart. Her own pup, defending the she–wolf who had destroyed their family.

spanng="EN"“If you bully her again, I won’t care about you anymore!” Leo continued, his small hands protectively shielding ra. “Even if you throw me the biggest birthday party and buy me the biggest cake!”

spanng="EN"Olivia’s world tilted. Her pup’s betrayal wasplete.

spanng="EN"Her heart, already shattered by ra’s revtions, felt nothing now. Only a cold, empty void remained.

spanng="EN"Heavy footsteps echoed in the hallway. Theodore appeared in the doorway, his amber eyes taking in the scene.

spanng="EN"Olivia’s dim gaze shifted to him. Her voice came out as barely a whisper.

spanng="EN"“Is what she said true?”

spanng="EN"Theodore’s jaw tightened. He stepped forward, his hands reaching for her.

spanng="EN"“My love, let me exin-”

spanng="EN"“Don’t touch me!” Olivia pushed him away with surprising force. Her grey eyes were wild with desperate need for answers.

spanng="EN"“Was our daughter, Rose, killed by me?” Tears fell with each trembling word. “Was she… born without a heartbeat?”

spanng="EN"The memory flooded back unbidden. Rose kicking in her womb just before she fell down the stairs. The baby had been alive. She had felt her moving.

spanng="EN"It couldn’t be true. It couldn’t be.

spanng="EN"Theodore’sposure finally cracked. His usually unreadable amber eyes now zed with murderous rage.

spanng="EN"But the rage wasn’t directed at Olivia. It was aimed at the whimpering ra on the floor.

spanng="EN"He realized his fatal mistake. His leniency had allowed this she–wolf to wound his mate beyond repair.

spanng="EN"“Get out!” Theodore’s Alphamand exploded through the manor like thunder. “Get out and never let me see you again!”

spanng="EN"The windows rattled from the force of his voice. Even the omegas cowered at the raw power.

spanng="EN"But Leo, heartbroken and defiant, helped ra to her feet. His small hands were gentle as he wiped the blood from her battered face.

spanng="EN"“Aunt ra, I’ll take you to the healer,” he said softly. “I apologize on my mother’s behalf.”

spanng="EN"ra leaned heavily on the young pup, ying the victim perfectly. As Leo led her toward the door, she cast one final nce at Olivia.

spanng="EN"The look was triumphant. Cold. Victorious.

spanng="EN"She had won. The pup chose her over his own mother.

spanng="EN"Watching her son and mate so tantly favor the other she–wolf, Olivia’s heart wentpletely numb.

spanng="EN"She grabbed Theodore’s cor with desperate hands. Her fingers dug into the expensive fabric.

spanng="EN"“Tell me the truth,” she demanded, her voice breaking. “Did I kill my own daughter?”

spanng="EN"Theodore looked at her, his own eyes filled with a rare, devastating sorrow. When he spoke, his voice choked on the words.

spanng="EN"“My love, we still have Leo.”

spanng="EN"The gentle words were a de straight to her heart. They confirmed everything.

spanng="EN"“Did I pass on my weakness to her?” Olivia cried, copsing into his arms. “Did I kill my own pup?”

spanng="EN"Her fists beat against his chest, grief transforming into hysterical usation.

spanng="EN"“I hate you! I hate you so much!”

spanng="EN"The world spun around her. Darkness crept in from the edges of her vision.

spanng="EN"She weed it.

spanng="EN"The sharp sting of a moonlight herb injection pulled her back to a reality she no longer wanted.

spanng="EN"Oliviay in bed, feelingpletely lifeless. The familiar ceiling of their bedroom mocked her with its normalcy.

spanng="EN"“I want to see her,” she whispered.

spanng="EN"Theodore, who had been sitting vigil beside her, looked relieved at her first words in hours.

spanng="EN"“Of course, my love. We’ll go tomorrow.”

spanng="EN"He gently fed her venison broth, each spoonful a struggle to swallow. The rich liquid tasted like ash in her mouth.

spanng="EN"Leo stood by the door, his expression a mixture of pity and annoyance. He watched his parents with the detached interest of a stranger.

spanng="EN"After a moment, he turned to leave. “Can I visit ra?” he asked a passing pack omega.

spanng="EN"In that moment, Olivia knew her pup was truly lost to her.

spanng="EN"The next day, a helicopter carried them to a private ind. Olivia hadn’t set foot here since Rose’s death.

spanng="EN"The small grave was perfectly maintained. White moonflowers bloomed around the headstone like fallen stars.

spanng="EN"Olivia ced fresh moonflowers on the grave, her tears falling freely onto the soft earth.

spanng="EN"As she touched her own belly, she made a silent vow to the new life within.

spanng="EN"“If you are willing to give me a second chance to be your mother, Mama will fight to keep you,” she whispered. “To protect you.”

spanng="EN"She would rely on the Shadow Syndicate. Matthew would have a way.

spanng="EN"A sudden gust of wind swept across the grave, rustling the moonflowers. It felt like a response from her daughter.

spanng="EN"For the first time in days, a faint smile touched Olivia’s lips.

spanng="EN"She turned to Theodore, who was mesmerized by that small smile. It was the first real expression he’d seen from her.

spanng="EN"“Don’t let anyone disturb our daughter, okay?” she said softly.

spanng="EN"Then, with deliberate movements, she removed her Luna’s ring. The diamond caught the sunlight as she ced it among the moonflowers.

spanng="EN"Olivia and Theodore were over.

spanng="EN"That night, after ensuring Olivia was settled and sleeping, Theodore drove to The Northwood Manor.

spanng="EN"ra was waiting for him, both terrified and thrilled. Despite her bruised face, she wrapped her arms around his neck.

spanng="EN"“Alpha, I really didn’t mean to tell her the truth about your daughter,” she cooed, pressing her body against his.

spanng="EN"Theodore remained cold, unmoved by her attempts at seduction. His amber eyes were like winter ice.

spanng="EN"In the next moment, he threw her to the floor. ra hit the hardwood with a sickening thud.

spanng="EN"The manor door opened. A team of pack healers in white coats entered, their medical bags in hand.

spanng="EN"“Alpha Redgrave!” they greeted in unison.

spanng="EN"A terrible premonition seized ra. She crawled to Theodore’s feet, her voice breaking with panic.

spanng="EN"“Alpha! Please!”

spanng="EN"But it was toote.

spanng="EN"Theodore’s voice, devoid of any warmth and filled with his Alpha authority, sealed her fate.

spanng="EN"“Remove her uterus,” hemanded. “For mocking my Luna for not being able to give birth to a healthy pup, she doesn’t need to give birth either.”
