Chapter 51 - Zack's POV

I’d gone over that night a hundred times in my head. The night Liam was found in bed with Lia—it didn’t sit right with me. Something was off, and I was determined to find it.

I started my investigation quietly. The kitchen staff told me Liam had eaten alone that evening. I checked the dishes, the leftovers, even questioned the omegas who prepared the meal, but there was no sign of anything unusual—no scent, no trace of poison or herbs. Nothing.

I was starting to lose hope when I decided to pay Lia a visit at the hospital. Maybe I’d get lucky.

When I got there, I saw Doctor Mark stepping out of her room. He looked uneasy, glancing over his shoulder before heading down the hall. My instincts kicked in immediately.

“Doctor Mark,” I called.

He froze. “Beta Zack, I didn’t see you there.”

I stepped closer, narrowing my eyes. “Yeah, I noticed. What’s wrong? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

He chuckled nervously. “Just… long day, sir. The Luna-to-be isn’t easy to handle.”

I folded my arms.
