Chapter 408
Once beyond pack jurisdiction, she thought she could start a new life. She was reveling in the belief that | would
suffer while Ethan grieved, and she would live freely in human society.
However, the destination was not the civilized country Victoria desired, but the lawless Bloodfang Territory in the
savage lands beyond werewolf civilization. A hellish existence awaited her among the rogue packs that
controlled human trafficking operations.
Hearing that Victoria had unknowingly sent herself to the Savage Lands and imagining the horrors of being
enslaved by feral wolves, my expression softened. My wolf settled with grim satisfaction.
"This won't implicate the Blackwood Pack, will it?" | asked, still concerned for Lucas's standing among the
Northern Territory Alphas.
"No, she contacted the traffickers herself through Derek Walsh's criminal connections. The Blackwood Pack has
no involvement," Lucas reassured me, his gray eyes reflecting the scold justice that Ethan Stone would
have demanded.
Both Alphas shared the sentiment that Victoria's evil nature made a quick death too merciful. They wanted her
to suffer a fate worse than any pack punishment.
However, even if she were captured, her documented mental instability would prevent proper sentencing under
human law. The suffering available in civilized territory was too limited for her crimes.
Someone like Victoria was perfectly suited for the Savage Lands, where rogue wolves showed no mercy to those
who harmed pups. Only then did | feel truly relieved, my wolf finally at peace knowing the threat was eliminated.
(Third Person's POV)
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMentioning the fire from the previous night, Lucas thought of Ethan Stone's heroic actions. He looked at Olivia
and asked, "Olivia, Alpha Stone is also recovering in this medical center. Should | accompany you to visit him?"
He felt genuine gratitude toward the Silvercrest Alpha for rushing into the burning building to save them without
hesitation, despite their rivalry.
Evelyn quickly interjected, "Alpha Stone already visited us earlier. Olivia has already seen him."
She understood Lucas's meaning, but she didn't want Olivia to know the full extent of Ethan's sacrifice. Her
daughter was finally making progress with Lucas and planning to start fresh.
Evelyn understood Olivia too well - she cared too deeply about Lily's memory, and would never forgive Ethan for
their daughter's death. However, Evelyn had witnessed how deeply Olivia had once loved the Alpha King.
During her recent coma caused by Victoria's actions, Ethan had maintained a constant vigil, massaging her
hands while speaking of his regrets. His remorse revealed the depth of Olivia's former love for him.
He had been the first Alpha to capture her heart completely, filling her thoughts and dreams. It would be
impossible for her to forget him entirely.
Olivia was simply forcing herself not to love again. If she learned that Ethan had risked his life to save them,
Evelyn feared her daughter would be moved and her feelings for the Alpha King would rekindle.
If Olivia couldn't release her grief over Lily's death but found herself drawn to Ethan again, she would only suffer
more emotional turmoil. Evely preferred that Olivia remain unaware and find happiness with Lucas.
Lucas observed Olivia's obvious change in expression at the mention of Ethan's n- her wolf's reaction was
unmistakable even through their developing mate bond. He decided not to pursue the topic further.
Thomas Griffin completed the discharge procedures, and the three of them left Crescent Moon Medical Center
together.
From his window in the Silvercrest Pack Medical Ward, Ethan Stone sat in his wheelchair, watching as Lucas
escorted Olivia and Evelyn to his Armored SUV. The gentle smile Olivia gave the Blackwood Alpha - the same
she-wolf who had once looked at only him with sach
warmth - now directed that affection toward another.
Ethan's hands tightened on his wheelchair's armrests, his wolf howling silently in defeat.
