Richard Winters ' Alpha rage crumbled instantly , replaced by a grief so profound it seemed to age him decades in mere seconds . His powerful shoulders sagged as memories of Sarah flooded back . Her gentle smile , her healing touch , the way she hummed while creating ceramic figurines with young Olivia . Richard's amber eyes , once blazing with fury , now glistened with unshed tears .

The mighty Alpha who commanded respect from every werewolf in Riverdale looked utterly defeated . " Sarah , " he whispered , her name a prayer on his lips . Olivia watched her father's transformation with a mixture of satisfaction and regret . She had struck the deepest wound possible , and the victory felt hollow . Through their pack mind - link , she spoke without words : * I'm leaving , Father . * Richard said nothing . He couldn't find his voice past the crushing weight of old grief . Olivia turned and walked away , her footsteps echoing in the vast hall .

Behind her , Richard remained frozen , lost in memories of his beloved first mate . After several minutes of painful silence , Richard slowly climbed the grand staircase to his private chambers . Each step felt like carrying the weight of the world . In the dining room , Natalie Winters surveyed the elaborate feast she had prepared with such hope . Roasted venison with moonlight herbs , Olivia's favorite honey cakes , imported wine from the finest vineyards . The table was set for three with the family's best china and crystal .

Candles flickered in silver holders , casting warm light over the untouched meal . Natalie sighed heavily , her heart breaking for the fractured family she had tried so hard to heal . Years of effort , and still the wounds remained raw and bleeding . She began clearing the dishes with mechanical precision . The food would go to waste , just like her dreams of family unity . Olivia drove through the night toward Harbor City , her hands gripping the steering wheel with 1/4 < Chapter 246 The Luna's Heartbreak More Rewards white - knuckled intensity .

The confrontation with her father replayed endlessly in her mind . She needed alcohol . She needed her friends . She needed anything to dull the ache in her chest . Pulling into Nightshade Bar's parking lot , she immediately called Lily . The phone rang twice before Lily's breathless voice answered . " Livvy ? What's wrong ? " Lily sounded distracted , her voice slightly muffled . In the background , Olivia heard Ethan Quinn's low chuckle and the rustle of sheets . Her friend was clearly in the middle of intimate bonding activities .

" I'm sorry , I shouldn't have called ," Olivia said quickly , embarrassment flooding her cheeks . " No , wait ! " Lily's voice became sharp with concern . " You sound upset . I'm coming right now ." " Don't interrupt your time with Ethan , " Olivia protested . " I have Emma with me for protection anyway . " " Are you sure ? I can be there in twenty minutes . " " I'm sure . Enjoy your evening . " After hanging up , Lily turned to Ethan with playful annoyance . " You distracted me during an important call . " Ethan grinned unrepentantly , pulling her closer . " Your friend will be fine .

She's a strong Luna . " But Lily's expression grew serious . " Something's really wrong . I can hear it in her voice . " Olivia tried calling Rebecca Frost next , but the calls went straight to voicemail . Rebecca was probably still dealing with her mysterious business in America . Desperate for companionship , she called Emma Thompson . Emma answered immediately , her voice warm with concern . " Olivia ? It's late . Is everything alright ? " " I need friends tonight , " Olivia said simply . " Can you meet me at Nightshade Bar ? " " Of course ! I'll be there in fifteen minutes .

" Next , she called Jade Mitchell , who responded with equal enthusiasm despite the late hour . " I'll bring my car , " Jade offered . " We can make sure you get home safely . " 2/4 < Chapter 246 : The Luna's Heartbreak More Rewards Within thirty minutes , both friends had arrived at Nightshade Bar . The supernatural nightlife venue pulsed with energy , werewolves and other creatures mingling in the dim lighting . They secured a private booth in the back corner , away from the main crowd . Emma immediately ordered an assortment of moonberry wine and other werewolf - safe beverages .

But Olivia ignored the gentler options . She grabbed a bottle of moonfire whiskey and twisted off the cap with determined fingers . " Olivia , no ! " Emma gasped as Olivia lifted the bottle to her lips . " That's too strong to drink straight ! " Olivia took a long pull , the liquid burning down her throat like liquid fire . Her amber eyes watered , but she didn't stop . " What happened ? " Jade asked gently , sliding closer in the booth . " What's got you so upset ? " Olivia lowered the bottle , tears streaming down her cheeks . " My father wants me to sever my mate bond with Connor .

But I just don't want to ." Emma's expression softened with understanding . " Is it because of Connor's connection to Frederick Warner ? That whole revenge plot was terrifying . " " Yes , " Olivia nodded miserably . " Frederick had connections to corrupt officials in Blackmoor Territory . Father thinks Connor is too dangerous . " " I can understand why Alpha Richard would be concerned , " Emma said carefully . " You were nearly killed multiple times . " Olivia's voice cracked with anguish . " But Frederick is imprisoned now . His accomplices are sentenced . The threat is gone !

" She took another drink , the alcohol making her emotions more raw . " Why can't I be with my true mate ? " Jade placed a comforting hand on her shoulder . " I understand your point , but I can also see your father's perspective . He's trying to protect you . " " I don't care about protection , " Olivia declared fiercely . " I love Connor . Our wolves are perfectly matched . I won't give up our bond . " Emma sighed , recognizing the unbreakable nature of true mate bonds . " The heart wants what it wants .

" 3/4 < Chapter 246 : The Luna's Heartbreak More Rewards " Maybe you should consider spending time with Adrian Sinclair ," Jade suggested hesitantly . " He's a good man , and he clearly cares about you . " " No. " Olivia's refusal was immediate and absolute . " Connor has claimed my heart completely . No Alpha command can sever what the Moon Goddess has blessed . " The music in the bar suddenly stopped . Conversations died as every supernatural creature turned toward the entrance . Connor Rivers strode through the doors , his commanding presence filling the space .

His personal security team flanked him , while Vincent Crawford , the bar manager , hurried to greet the powerful Alpha . Connor's ice - blue eyes scanned the crowd until they found Olivia through their mate bond . Seeing her tear - stained face and the bottle in her hands , his Alpha mask crumbled . Olivia looked up at him through her drunken haze , her voice soft and vulnerable . " Connor , hold me . " Connor immediately crossed the room and pulled his mate into his protective embrace . 3 Comments H Vote 1.9K Get Bonus ( Ad ) > 4/4
