Chapter 29: Predators and Prey

(Ethan’s POV)

Parker Davis proved highly efficient, acquiring Olivia Winters‘ Riverdale address by the

very next day. I studied the information on my phone screen, my jaw tightening.

“Riverdale Terrace Apartments,” I muttered, recognizing the location immediately.

“Just an ordinary neighborhood.”

The address was clearly in Riverdale territory – Connor Rivers‘ domain. My fingers

tightened around my phone as I considered the implications. Coincidentally, I was

scheduled to head there soon to negotiate investments with the Silverridge Pack.

A dark satisfaction spread through me. Perfect timing.

“Sir, I’ve also confirmed she’s been staying there regularly,” Parker added, his voice

professionally detached. “Would you like me to arrange transportation for your visit to

Riverdale?”

I dismissed him with a wave. “I’ll handle it myself.”

As Parker left my office, I leaned back in my chair, a predatory smile forming on my lips. The mountain retreat had been a waste of time. Cassandra’s petty games with those photos had yielded nothing – nó reaction from Olivia at all.

“Olivia,” I thought, a dark glint flashing in my eyes, “since you won’t come find me,

then this time, I’ll come find you.”

The email notification chimed on my phone, drawing my attention away from the legal brief I’d been reviewing. My heart skipped when I saw the sender: Moonlaw Legal Services.

I opened it immediately, scanning the contents with growing excitement. They were responding to my resume submission, asking if I could attend an interview the

following day.

“Yes!” I whispered, quickly typing my acceptance.

prestigious law firm in Riverdale, with an excellent reputation throughout the legal

industry.

I began preparing immediately, reviewing my case notes and rehearsing potential interview questions. Working at Moonlaw for a few years would greatly benefit my future career advancement. More importantly, it would give me purpose beyond my

The Moonlaw Legal Services headquarters was an impressive glass and steel structure in downtown Riverdale. I arrived fifteen minutes early, taking deep breaths to calm my nerves before entering.

Heather Phillips studied me with sharp, assessing eyes. She was in her late thirties with a sleek bob haircut and the unmistakable aura of a career–focused professional,

I maintained eye contact, my voice steady. “I’m looking for new challenges and

growth opportunities. Moonlaw’s reputation for handling complex litigation is

unparalleled.”

The questions continued, ranging from my academic background to specific legal cases I’d handled. My prestigious education and solid experience allowed me to

answer all their professional questions fluently and confidently.

As the interview progressed, I noticed Heather’s expression shifting from professional assessment to genuine interest. When we discussed salary expectations, I stated my requirements clearly, prepared for negotiation.

To my surprise, Heather nodded immediately. “That’s perfectly reasonable given your qualifications. We can match that exactly – base salary plus case commission.”

The entire interview progressed more smoothly than I had dared hope. I had braced myself for tough bargaining over pay, yet the firm agreed readily to my terms.

As I gathered my portfolio to leave, Heather smiled warmly. “Miss Winters, see you

tomorrow.”

I returned the smile politely, a weight lifting from my shoulders. “See you tomorrow.”

(Heather’s POV)

I watched Olivia Winters walk confidently toward the elevator, her posture perfect, her movements graceful. Standing by the window, I sighed quietly with some regret.

“What a pity. I actually quite admire this Miss Winters.”
