Chapter 90: No Forgiveness! No Turning Back!!
(Theodore’s POV)
On the surveillance screen, Olivia appeared, holding a silver–tipped walking stick. Her face was flushed with anger and sorrow as she walked up to the second floor of the Northwood Manor.
As she went upstairs, the video feed switched. It revealed a naked man and woman with their backs to her, standing by the window. Their fingers were intertwined as they engaged in an unspeakable act of intimacy.
“It’s Alpha Theodore and the mistress!” someone recognized the shameless couple in the video.
“Moon Goddess! Luna Olivia is catching them in the act!” a she–wolf gasped. “Watching her own mate and her… half–sister right before her eyes…”
Another voice chimed in with empathy. “Her heart must be breaking!”
I quickly covered Leo’s eyes. It was that day! The day she appeared at the Onyx Lounge, saying she was helping Evelyn teach Clara a lesson.
Watching the image of Olivia dropping the walking stick and leaving the manor heartbroken, I recalled her hysterical, pained demands for mate bond severance. Despair, regret, horror, and worry flooded my heart.
The pain was suffocating. I trembled uncontrollably as images of Olivia’s heartbreak replayed in my mind.
She had said that if I ever betrayed her, she would leave. She had truly left without a word.
Caleb Thorne regained his composure and ordered urgently, “Turn off the video immediately!”
Seeing people recording with their phones, he barked, “No pictures, and don’t you dare post this video anywhere!”
The screen went black. So, my mate knew everything. She really left me.
Overwhelmed by this fact, I roared in agony, “Find her! Find my Luna no matter the cost!”
My love, you can’t leave me! At my command, all the Alpha’s Sentinels swarmed out.
I fought through my pain and started to leave with Leo, determined to find my mate. But Evelyn emerged from behind a screen, blocking my path.
“Theodore, you see? I didn’t lie to you,” she said with false sympathy. “Olivia knew you were cheating all along, she was just deceiving you! Why are you still looking for her? She doesn’t love you at all.”
She pressed on relentlessly. “The moment she found out you betrayed the mate bond with Clara, her first thought was to leave you and demand you give up all your assets. Does a she–wolf like that deserve your devotion?”
“Get out of my way!” My fury erupted, my eyes burning with murderous intent.
“My mate loves me. She won’t leave me,” I said, as much to convince myself as Evelyn. “As soon as I find her and explain, she’ll come back to me.”
The guests murmured amongst themselves. The truth of the affair and the existence of an illegitimate pup, Rosalie, was spreading like wildfire. They condemned the Redgrave family and Evelyn’s treachery.
“She knew Rosalie is your daughter with Clara!” Evelyn shouted, her voice laced with desperation. “She knew and still arranged for Clara to mate into the Thorne family, just to humiliate you!”
I stared at her, a fresh wave of pain striking my heart. I couldn’t believe Olivia had known everything.
I shoved Evelyn aside and addressed the cameras and the public. “I will offer my entire fortune to anyone who can find my
Luna.”
I knew the truth now. If she knew about the affair, the daughter, the five years of lies… and if she ever found out I had forced her to terminate our third pup… she would never forgive me.
I had to find her, bring her back, and then I would slowly win her back. The entire venue and the live stream audience
exploded in an uproar.
“Hold on!” A man and a woman suddenly entered the banquet hall.
The man, whom I recognized as my father, Kaelen Redgrave, who had been missing for a decade, declared, “Theodore, you
can’t do that.”
The woman, Anya Volkov, handed a file to me with a sneer. “This is the document where Luna Olivia donated all her shares
in Crimson Pack to The Lyra Blackwood Memorial Trust. The foundation, which we now control, is the largest
shareholder. Theodore Redgrave is nothing now.”
Everyone, including Caleb Thorne, was stunned. I stared at Olivia’s elegant signature, my heart shattering further.
She was severing all ties. Every connection between us was being cut away.
Kaelen mocked me with cruel satisfaction. “You picked a foolish she–wolf for a mate, now you have to pay the price.”
Before he could finish, my fist connected with his face. “You are not worthy of speaking about my Luna,” I said coldly.
I showed no fear or regret over losing my pack’s control. At that moment, the Sentinel Captain returned breathlessly.
“Alpha, we’ve found the Luna! A hacker friend traced the video’s signal to a computer, and it’s moving towards the Redgrave Airstrip.”
“Quick, after her!” A profound sense of dread washed over me as I grabbed Leo and rushed out.
Evelyn screamed after me, “She handed over your life’s work to the man you hate most! Are you insane?”
My voice was firm as I walked away. “My Luna would never harm me, but even if she did, so what? If it’s her, I’d gladly
endure it.”
(Olivia’s POV)
The convoy sped towards the airstrip. After boarding the plane, I carefully placed my mother Lyra’s ashes in a secure
compartment.
I asked curiously, “Matthew, why are we heading back so suddenly? Is everything taken care of?”
Matthew Kane looked out the window. In the distance, a convoy of vehicles was speeding in our direction.
Matthew’s jaw tightened into a cold line as he ordered the pilot, “Take off immediately.”
He turned back to me, his gaze as calm as water. “Yes, it’s all handled.”
“That’s good.” I returned my attention to my laptop, ignoring the news about Theodore as I focused on my research project with the Shadow Syndicate.
The plane began to move. A screech of tires ripped through the air as the convoy blocked the plane’s path.
I looked out in shock. An Alpha and a young pup got out of the vehicle, their furious eyes fixed on me.
