Olivia discovered a truth that shattered her heart. For three years, she had believed Ethan to be her destined mate, only to overhear him confess to another: "Olivia is beautiful, certainly, but I pursued her only because she resembles Cassandra. All these years, I've merely been searching for Cassandra's shadow in her." That night, with trembling fingers, she dialed a number she had sworn never to call again. "Father," her voice barely a whisper, "I agree to return home for the arranged mating." Later, at the grand gathering of packs, Ethan's face paled when he saw Olivia enter not as the meek wolf he thought he knew, but as the rightful Alpha heiress to the Winters pack—the most powerful werewolf lineage in the northern territories. His mind fractured at the revelation... On the night Olivia had fled her ancestral home to escape the arranged mating, Connor Rivers, Alpha of the feared Rivers pack, had watched her with inscrutable eyes. "Liv," he had promised, his voice low and dangerous, "someday you'll return to my side willingly." Rumors whispered that the powerful Rivers Alpha was cold, cruel, and had never taken interest in any she-wolf. Olivia had believed these tales without question. Until later, when she discovered just how passionate Connor Rivers could truly be behind closed doors.
