Chapter 228: The Pack Alliance Gathering

(Olivia’s POV)

The next afternoon, my phone buzzed with an incoming call. When I saw the caller ID displaying “Richard Winters,” my heart skipped a beat.

My father had been strongly opposed to my relationship with Connor Rivers. The fact that Connor and I had reconciled and strengthened our mate bond remained our carefully guarded secret.

My hands trembled slightly as I stared at the screen. Would my father somehow discover that Connor and I had gotten back together? Was he calling to confront me about it?

My heart hammered against my ribs as I finally answered. “Hello, Father.”

“Olivia,” Richard’s voice came through clearly, but it carried none of the stern disapproval I had been expecting. Instead, his tone was surprisingly cordial.

“I’m calling to invite you to a business gathering this evening at Moonrise Grand Restaurant. There will be several prominent pack leaders attending who could become valuable clients for your law practice.”

Relief flooded through me like a cool breeze. He wasn’t calling about Connor at all.

“That sounds wonderful, Father. I’d be honored to attend.”

“Excellent. The gathering begins at seven o’clock. I’ll introduce you to some of my business partners who might need legal services.”

“Thank you for thinking of me. I’ll be there.”

After ending the call, I exhaled deeply. My wolf, Cora, had been tense throughout the conversation, but now

she settled peacefully in my mind.

That evening, I arrived at Moonrise Grand Restaurant wearing my Midnight Elegance Strapless Evening

Gown. The conservative black dress covered everything except my shoulders and arms, perfect for a formal

werewolf business gathering.

The restaurant’s private dining hall buzzed with conversation as Harbor City’s werewolf elite mingled over glasses of red wine and moonlight wine.

Richard approached me with his characteristic Alpha presence. Despite the grief that had turned his hair

completely white, he still commanded respect from every werewolf in the room.

“Olivia, come meet some potential clients.”

He led me to a group of distinguished older werewolves. “Gentlemen, this is my daughter, Olivia Winters. She’s established her own law practice specializing in supernatural legal matters.”

The introductions went smoothly. Within an hour, I had secured three lucrative contracts for Moonstone Legal Partners. My business cards disappeared quickly into expensive suit pockets.

“You’ve done well tonight,” Richard said approvingly. “Now, there’s someone else I’d like you to meet.”

He guided me across the room toward a young man standing near the floor–to–ceiling windows. The werewolf

appeared to be around my age, with an athletic build and confident posture that marked him as an Alpha.

“Olivia, I’d like you to meet Tyler Davis.”

Recognition flashed through me immediately. This was the same Tyler who owned the upscale restaurant where I had dined with Rebecca and Lily just weeks ago.

Tyler’s face lit up with a charming smile. “Ms. Winters, restaurant.”

“Yes, I remember,” I replied politely.

at a pleasant surprise. We met briefly at my

Richard nodded with satisfaction. “Tyler is the second son of Alpha Davis. He recently returned from Alpine Territory where he completed his business education. He’s now serving as general manager of his family’s pack enterprises.”

The way my father spoke made his intentions crystal clear. This wasn’t just a business introduction – this was a potential mating arrangement.

My demeanor immediately turned cold. My amber eyes hardened as I looked between Tyler and my father. Richard seemed oblivious to my change in mood. “You two have already met, which makes things easier. I’ll leave you to discuss business matters while I speak with the other pack leaders.”

He walked away before I could protest, leaving Tyler and me alone by the windows.

Tyler must have sensed my discomfort because he quickly raised his hands in a peaceful gesture.

“Ms. Winters, please don’t look so alarmed. I understand your situation with Connor Rivers.”

My eyes widened in surprise. “You know about that?”

“It’s not exactly a secret among the younger generation of werewolf society,” Tyler said quietly. “Your mate bond is quite obvious to those who know what to look for.”

I remained silent, waiting for him to continue.

“I want you to know that I have no intention of interfering in your relationship or challenging your existing mate bond. My pack may have matchmaking intentions, but I respect the sacred nature of true mate bonds.”

His sincerity caught me off guard. “Then why are you here talking to me?”

“Because I was hoping we could connect as business associates instead,” Tyler explained. “My restaurant

needs legal counsel for various matters – contracts, licensing, employment issues. I’d like to hire your firm.”

The tension in my shoulders began to ease. “That would be a professional arrangement I could consider.”

We exchanged contact information through our pack communication devices. Tyler’s business card was elegantly designed, reflecting his sophisticated taste.

“There’s actually something else I wanted to ask you about,” Tyler said, his confidence wavering slightly.

“What’s that?”

“Rebecca Frost. Is she currently seeing anyone?”

The question caught me completely by surprise. “Rebecca? Why do you ask?”

Tyler’s cheeks flushed slightly. “I’ve harbored feelings for her since our university days. Back then, she was

too young for me to pursue appropriately. But now that she’s mature and single….

“You want to court her?”

“According to proper werewolf customs, yes. I’d like to ask for your blessing as her close friend and pack

sister.”

I studied Tyler’s face carefully. As Rebecca’s best friend, I needed to assess his character and intentions.

“Tell me about your past relationships,” I said directly.

Tyler didn’t seem offended by my bluntness. “I had one serious relationship during my time in Alpine Territory. It lasted two years, but we ultimately weren’t compatible as mates.”
