Without waiting for her reply, I turned and walked away, her voice echoing after me as I left.

“What the hell happened in there? Your father’s been calling me nonstop,” Alex demanded, his own phone buzzing in his hand. He didn’t even bother answering.

“Just a little misunderstanding,” I replied flatly, offering nothing more as we strode quickly toward the exit.

Outside, the cars were already lined up for my departure, and I knew exactly what was waiting for me when I got home.

My phone had been ringing too-my mother’s name flashing on the screen. Once we were in the car and moving, I finally answered.

“Son, what happened? What did you do?” Her voice was tight with concern.

“Nothing, Mom. Just some delusional people who think they can control my life,” I muttered.

She exhaled sharply. “Your father says you threatened Alpha Hamilton. Is that true?”

I stayed silent for a moment before admitting, “Yes, Mother. I did.”

Her voice jumped an octave. “How could you do that?”

“He punched me first, Mother,” I said calmly, and Alex’s head snapped toward me in surprise.

“What? He punched you? Why?” she asked, and I could hear her anger boiling now.

“Because I told them I’ve found my mate.”

There was a pause, and I knew she was processing what she’d just heard-likely already informed by my father.

“Your father told me, Osborne. Don’t worry. Just come home, and we’ll discuss it properly. He’s furious right now, but I’ll do my best to calm him down,” she said before hanging up.

Alex shook his head. “He punched you? Unbelievable. The man’s playing with fire.”

I smirked, touching the spot where his fist had landed. Even as a kid, my punches carried more force than his ever could.

When we arrived back at my pack’s territory and into the mansion as our cars pulled into the driveway, my father was already waiting outside under the night sky, my mother standing at his side. “Stay in the ear” I told Alex as I stepped out of the car.

“You better start talking,” he barked, striding toward me with heavy, deliberate steps.

I didn’t stop either. I walked straight toward him, meeting his gaze head-on. The anger blazing in his eyes was unmistakable.

“What did you go there to do, huh?” he demanded.

“Father, I’m not a kid. I’m twenty-four, for crying out loud-I know exactly what the hell I want,” I

shot back.

“Watch your language when you speak to-” he started, but my mother’s voice cut through the

tension like a blade.

“Both of you, enough! Get inside. Now.”

We both turned to look at her, and though neither of us liked being ordered around, we obeyed.

The maids, guards, and butler kept their heads down as we entered the mansion, the air inside just

as tense as it was outside.

“Follow me to the office,” my father ordered.

I did, with my mother walking right beside us.

Once the door was closed, my father didn’t waste time. He faced me directly. “You will reject your

mate, Osborne. You’ll beg the Moon Goddess for your stupidity, and you will mate with Bella

instead.”

I stayed silent. For a second, he looked as though he took my silence for agreement.

“No,” I said at last, my voice hard and unyielding.

His fury flared instantly, his entire stance shifting as though ready to challenge me. But before a

single move was made, my mother stepped between us, her gaze sharp and unwavering.

“You will leave him be,” she said, her tone carrying a weight that even my father couldn’t ignore.

He stopped, though his breathing was still ragged, his wolf pressing dangerously close to the surface. But when it came to my mother, he was powerless.

“I’ve already told you that alliance will never work,” she said firmly. “You will not force him to claim

a woman he has no interest in.”

“He’s our son, Olivia,” my father shot back. “I know what’s best for him. Bella will make a good mate

and a good mother.”

My mother shook her head. “No, Owen. I know how close you and Hamilton are, but you won’t drag my son into your little circle.”

“Bella loves him,” my father pressed.

“I don’t care,” my mother replied, her voice like steel. “Osborne doesn’t love her. That’s all that

matters.”

Thank the Moon my mother wasn’t buying into the madness my father called friendship. I let out a

silent sigh of relief. My father’s eyes flicked toward me, sharp as a blade, and I glanced away.

“I can see he hit you,” my father said coldly. “And you deserved it-because I would have done

worse.”

I didn’t reply.

My mother turned toward me instantly, her eyes narrowing as she caught sight of my reddened

cheek. “How could he?” she muttered, furious.

I sighed again. “Excuse me, I need to rest. It’s been a long day.”

By then, my father had already walked over to sink into the couch, while my mother gave me a

small nod. I left them there, letting them carry on their argument without me.

I woke up feeling refreshed, my gaze immediately drawn to the flowers I’d placed in a vase the day before. I hurried over to them, leaning in to inhale their fragrance. His scent lingered there too, wrapping around me like a memory.

A soft chuckle escaped as I covered my mouth. I still couldn’t believe something as simple as this could make me so happy. Then my eyes caught my reflection in the mirror. I studied myself, recalling the way he had looked at me-with such genuine affection. There had been no hint of irritation or judgment toward my body. No one had ever looked at me like that before, and the
