Chapter 181 : The Alpha's Investigation Chapter 181 : The Alpha's Investigation ( Connor's POV ) After visiting my father at Harbor City Memorial Hospital , I returned to Riverdale that night . The weight of his condition pressed heavily on my shoulders as I drove through the familiar territory . I had invited two leaders from the Northern Territory Werewolf Registry Office and Detective Thomas Harrison to Rivers Pack Headquarters . This meeting couldn't wait any longer .

The formal meeting room felt cold despite the warm lighting . I sat at the head of the mahogany table , my ice - blue eyes reflecting the gravity of the situation . The three men entered with the deference due to a new Alpha . Their postures were respectful , acknowledging my recent ascension to pack leadership . " Alpha Rivers ," the first registry official said , bowing slightly . " Thank you for meeting with us during this difficult time . " I gestured for them to sit .

" Please , take your seats . We have much to discuss . " Detective Thomas Harrison , a stern - faced man in his forties , introduced himself first . " I'm Detective Harrison , lead investigator on your father's case . I've handled supernatural cases for over a decade ." The registry officials followed with their introductions . Their experience with werewolf law would be crucial for this investigation . " What progress have you made ? " I asked , leaning forward with intense focus .

Detective Harrison opened his file . " Based on Katherine Rivers ' statement , Vanessa Reed is our prime suspect . " He continued methodically . " We've learned that Miss Reed often prepared healing broths and moonlight herb supplements for Alpha Rivers . " " She also had access to his morning routine ," Harrison added . " Your father drank black coffee with wolfsbane - neutralizing herbs every morning . " I nodded grimly .

Vanessa's access to my father's food and drink made her the perfect suspect . " What evidence do you have ? " I pressed , my wolf demanding answers . Detective Harrison presented two forensic reports . " One is the testing report of the pot used for healing broth . The other is the cup used for coffee ." He slid the documents across the table . " The pot contained the same wolfsbane derivatives found in your father's bloodstream . " My hands clenched into fists .

The systematic poisoning had been happening right under our noses . " The healing broth was systematically poisoned , " Harrison confirmed . " The wolfsbane compounds seeped into the pot's material even after thorough cleaning . " " What about the coffee cup ? " I asked , though I suspected the answer . O 1/3 " We traces of toxins . " Harrison replied .

" But the pack servants confirmed that Vanessa Reed personally prepared the morning coffee every day " The betrayal cut deep Vanessa had used her position as foster daughter to slowly murder my father . " What did Vanessa shy during interrogation ? I demanded , my Alpha authority blooding into my voice . Detective Harrison's expression darkened .

" She remained completely silent invoked her right to remain quiet until pack council proceedings " Frederick Warner also refused to cooperate with human authorities , he added . " But we believe he's directly involved in the poisoning conspiracy . " I wasn't surprised . Frederick's revenge plot ran deeper than we had initially realized . " Have you reviewed security surveillance footage ? " I asked , hoping for visual evidence Harrison nodded . " We examined all available recordings .

Unfortunately , the footage doesn't reveal anything conclusive . " He explained further . " The surveillance showed Vanessa preparing the healing broth , but she strategically positioned herself to block the camera's view . " " If she poisoned the coffee , she did it in the kitchen's blind spot ," Harrison concluded . My jaw tightened with frustration . Vanessa had been careful to avoid detection . Detective Harrison hesitated before continuing .

" Katherine Rivers suggested you might know the true motives behind Frederick Warner and Vanessa Reed's actions . " He paused respectfully . " She felt it was inappropriate to elaborate on pack family matters to human authorities . " I took a deep breath . The truth needed to come out , regardless of family shame . " Frederick Warner is my father's illegitimate son ," I revealed , watching their expressions change .

" His mother was Victoria Price , my father's mistress over twenty years ago ," I continued . " She was sent abroad when she became pregnant . " The registry officials exchanged meaningful glances . Illegitimate offspring often caused pack complications . " Frederick grew up with resentment toward the Rivers pack , " I explained . " His revenge plot included using Vanessa Reed as his accomplice .

" " I believe Vanessa systematically poisoned my father under Frederick's direction ," I concluded . " This was part of their coordinated attack on our pack . " Detective Harrison nodded grimly . " That provides clear motive for both suspects . " " We'll pursue this angle in our investigation ," he assured me . " The human authorities will do our best to investigate within legal boundaries , " Harrison promised . My ice - blue eyes grew heavy with grief and determination .

" I need you to uncover the complete truth . " " My father deserves to know who betrayed his trust and slowly murdered him , " I said , my voice thick with emotion . 111 O Chapter 181 The Alpha's L The officers acknowledged my request solemnly . " We'll pursue all available leads , Alpha Rivers . " B > ( td > { " I'll deploy pack investigators to cooperate with the human Investigation , " I added . " We'll respect territorial law enforcement protocols . " .

The meeting concluded with plans for coordinated efforts between human and werewolf authorities .. Three days later , after coordinating additional pack resources for the investigation , I received news that lifted my spirits . Olivia had finally awakened from her recovery rest . My heart raced with desperate hope as I drove to the hospital . But when I arrived at Harbor City Memorial Hospital , Richard Winters blocked my path . His ice - blue eyes held firm resolve .

" Connor , " he said respectfully but firmly . " Olivia needs more time to heal before receiving visitors ." My wolf whimpered with disappointment . I needed to see her , to know she was truly safe . " Please , just for a moment ," I pleaded , my Alpha pride cracking . Richard's expression remained unmoved . " She's still recovering from the trauma . Give her space . " I could only leave reluctantly , my heart heavy with unfulfilled longing .

As I departed , heated voices echoed from my father's hospital room . Katherine's voice rose with desperate pleading . " William , you have to fight this ! " My father's voice was hoarse from wolfsbane damage to his throat . " What's the use of fighting it ? " " The pack healer said I have at most one month left ," William's voice rose slightly , rough and pained . " The wolfsbane has spread too far through my system . I'm going to die anyway !
