Not long after the beginning of August, I received good news one after another. Victoria Hartwell was officially prosecuted for indecent assault, with the case being handed over <b>to </b>the procuratorate.
The satisfaction I felt was immense. Justice was finally being served for her malicious attempt to destroy my rtionship with Connor.
Meanwhile, Rivers Pack Holdings‘ acquisition of Miranda ckwood’s subsidiaries was proceeding smoothly. Connor had moved swiftly to dismantle her family’s business empire piece by piece.
Brandon Cole’s fate was even more grim. After a month in the hospital, he was arrested as soon as he was discharged.
With Connor Rivers‘ assistance, the police uncovered a slew of his past crimes. <b>r</b>**e, negligent homicide, and causing public disturbances – the list went on and on.
Even though his father, Charles ckwood, had publicly disowned him, Connor did not let the Cole Pack off the hook. The same day Brandon was arrested, Charles was also taken away by the supervisorymission for investigation.
“Connor doesn’t do things halfway,” I murmured to myself, impressed by his thoroughness in dealing with threats to our rtionship.
Amidst these resolutions, Rivers Pack Holdings and Silverridge Holdings began to coborate. This made Connor Rivers a frequent and wee visitor at the Winters residence.
The more time Richard Winters spent with him, the more he grew to admire the young Alpha. His old prejudices against Connor and the Rivers Packpletely dissolved.
“Olivia, that young man has excellent character,” my father told me one evening. “I was <i>wrong </i>to judge him so harshly before.”
In the sweltering August heat of Riverdale, Connor alsounched a charm offensive at Moonstone Legal Partners. He arranged for afternoon tea to be delivered to the entire <b>staff </b>every workday at three.
The rotating menu included sweet soups, moonberry tea, coffee, and desserts. Frank Langley

Within a week, the employees were singing “Alpha Connor’s” praises. I couldn’t help but smile at his strategic approach to winning over my colleagues.
Adrian Sinir often overheard his colleagues gossiping about how perfect Connor and I were for each other as mates. His friend Derek Sullivan advised him to give up pursuing me.
“Olivia’s clearly chosen her Alpha,” I heard Derek tell Adrian one afternoon. “You should focus your attention elsewhere.”
The days flew by, and soon it was August 20th, Connor Rivers‘ birthday. He was hosting a party at one of his vis, inviting only his and my closest friends.
I took the event very seriously, hiring a stylist and calling upon Reba Frost and Lily to help me choose the perfect outfit.
After trying on a dozen dresses, I was still unsatisfied. Nothing seemed quite right for such an important asion.
Reba suggested a white short formal dress adorned with countless small diamonds. The fabric shimmered like starlight with every movement.
“It looks like a mating ceremony dress,” I hesitated, running my fingers over the delicate beadwork. “We’re going to a birthday party, not a marking ceremony.”
Lily and Reba exchanged a knowing nce that I didn’t quite understand at the time.
“Just wear this one,” Lily insisted, holding the dress against me. “Today, Connor is the Alpha and you’re his Luna! This one is the most suitable.”
When I expressed suspicion at their united front, Lily revealed her secret intelligence. “I got intel from Gabriel Andrews that Connor will be in a suit. This dress will match him perfectly!”
Convinced by her reasoning, I put it on. The dress fit like it was made specifically for my body.
My friends left me breathless with their reactions. “This dress is perfect for you, Liv!” Lily eximed, her eyes wide with admiration.
Inwardly, they both marveled that this was the dress Connor hadmissioned <i>from </i>a world–renowned designer just for me. But I remained oblivious to this detail.
I worried it was too formal for a simple birthday celebration. “Don’t <i>you </i>think it’s a bit much<b>?</b>”
But my friends persuaded me that as it was my first time celebrating his birthday as his

girlfriend, the grand gesture was appropriate.
“Alright, this one it is,” I finally agreed. A soft smile yed on my lips as I looked at my reflection in the mirror.

At six–thirty that evening, I arrived at the party with my friends. I was surprised to see so many guests milling about the elegant vi.
The crowd included not just our mutual friends like Gabriel Andrews and Ethan Quinn, but also colleagues from my firm and more of Connor’s acquaintances.
I found it odd, as Connor was never one forrge, lively gatherings. He typically preferred intimate settings with close friends.
Miranda ckwood, who was still trying to move on from her unrequited feelings, was notably not in attendance. I felt a pang of sympathy for her situation.
Just as we entered the beautifully decorated foyer, Lily grabbed my arm with sudden urgency. “Liv,e with me,” she said, her voice carrying an excitement she was trying to suppress.
I asked with augh, “Where are we going? The party’s just getting started.”
“You’ll know when we get there,” Lily said mysteriously. Reba appeared on my other side, nking me with matching secretive smiles.
nked by my friends, I was led forward through the vi’s corridors. I was utterly bewildered by their strange behavior.
“What’s <i>going </i>on, Lily? Where are you taking me?” I protested, trying to look back toward the main hall. “<i>Connor </i>is still in the hall waiting for us.”
<i>“</i><i>You’ll </i><i>know </i><i>soon</i>,” Lily repeated, pulling a confused me deeper into the unfamiliar vi.
