Redemption by My Alpha Mate のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

Olivia's POV I looked up and found that sure enough, Marsh and Beta Jeffrey were over there at the booth not far away. Before I could respond, Hannah continued, "C'mon, just show that jerk Marsh that you've got rizz." I shook my head, feeling a bit helpless. "Mates should be loyal and trust each other. Tests and provocations like these are completely meaningless, especially since my bond with Marsh is nearly broken because of Emily." "So? What do you say?" Zander asked with a smile like he didn't notice Hannah and me whispering. I beamed, "Thanks, but no. I drove here." I didn't drink alcohol tonight, so I didn't need anyone to take me home. After speaking, I headed over to the other side of the bar where some friends were hanging out, just to let them know I was heading back. Zander, being the sensible type, didn't press further. Hannah trailed behind and wondered with a puzzled look, "Why not take Zander up on his offer? I know you don't wanna be his girlfriend, but you coul

Olivia's POVI stared at the roses in silence, thinking, 'Since I've just decided yesterday that I'm not gonna respond to Zander's advances for now, I can't take them.'Thus, I said to the assistant, "Take these away; they're yours now."She looked shocked. "What?"Before she could say anything more, I pushed through the door and walked into my office.Moments later, I headed back out with the report Wendy had given me this morning."Ms. Johnson, would you like some coffee?" the assistant asked while holding the bouquet."Thanks, but no. I need to talk to Mr. Bell about work," I replied with a smile.My gaze swept over the bouquet—the red roses looked so vibrant.After losing in thought for a while, I tore my eyes away. With the file in hand, I then clicked my way straight to Morgan's office in heels.Due to my dissatisfaction with Morgan, I walked with big strides.When Morgan's assistant saw me, he froze for a second. "Ms. Johnson, are you here to see Mr. Bell?""Yes." I nodded."I'

Olivia's POV"I can't dance," I said.Well, in fact, I could. I just didn't wanna dance with him."Don't worry. I won't get mad even if you step on my toes," he replied with a grin.I was rendered speechless.Before I could protest, Zander had already taken my hand and led me onto the dance floor.As I stood there, I caught sight of Marsh. He didn't speak, but his expression was icy.I'd never seen that possessive look on him.If it were before, I'd feel flattered. But now, it just made me sick.I turned back to Zander, shifting my focus onto our steps.On the dance floor, our movements started syncing up like we were born to do this together.As the rhythm shifted from soft to upbeat, under Zander's lead, my movements became light and confident. The hem of my skirt traced graceful arcs in the air as we spun around.People around us seemed to be affected by our vibe, instinctively clearing a space for us in the center of the dance floor.Everyone started to fix their gaze on us.Deep

Olivia's POV"Good evening, ladies." The car window rolled down, and I saw Zander smiling at us as he spoke.Hannah gave me a meaningful look and said, "Well, looks like you won't have to drive by yourself later."I knew what she was inferring, so I shot her a sideways glance and replied, "I'm not ready to accept his help just yet.""I can't handle any more accidents late at night, so sorry, but I think it'll be the best if you accept his help."I snorted, "It's not up to you."As we spoke, Zander had already gotten out of the car and walked up to us, asking, "Did your car break down?"'He's quite forward,' I thought to myself.Then I politely replied, "Yeah.""Did you call for a tow truck?""Um-hum."Just as I finished speaking, the tow truck crew showed up.Wendy walked over and said, "Ms. Johnson, you may as well leave with Miss Watson now."I glanced at Zander standing beside me, feeling reluctant to get too involved with him. So I nodded. "Okay."I signaled Hannah to follow befor

Olivia's POVI hadn't downed this much booze in years, and my stomach was empty.Even though Wendy helped me drink a few glasses later on, I still had quite a bit throughout the night.After dinner, I escorted them to the door.As soon as I turned around, I felt a strong discomfort in my stomach. I tried my best to suppress it and said to Wendy, "I'm going to the bathroom."After saying so, I dashed to the bathroom and barely made it before I hurled everything up.After that, I felt a lot better.Werewolves had a strong self-healing ability, which was not only evident in injuries but also in situations like this. I could quickly recover from physical discomfort.I splashed some cold water on my face and sobered up."You good?" I couldn't help but check in with my wolf."I'm not vibing with this booze. I prefer the red wine from the Red Moon Pack," Elara responded in my mind.I did go on the conversation with Elara. Instead, I grabbed a paper towel to dry my hands.That was when I spot
