"Having fun on your blind date?" he sneered. "Will you dare do it again?"
1/4
His words hitlike ice water. Understanding dawned with horrifying clarity.
He had seenat Canis Enterprises. He had followedhere. He had watched as Miles drugged me
"Ethan, just because | disobeyed you and went on this blind date, you just stood by and watched him drug me?"
My voice broke. "You wanted to teacha lesson this way?"
His silence was confirmation enough. No denial, no explanation.
A chill ran throughthat had nothing to do with the drug. | shoved him away, bracing myself against the
wall.
As Ethan reached foragain, the elevator doors opened. Lucas Blackwood stepped out, striding toward us
with purpose.
"Miss Winters, are you alright?" His voice was gentle, concerned
"Matriarch Stone arranged forto be your date," he continued. "I apologize for not arriving on time."
The pieces clicked together in my drug-addled mind. Lucas was my intended date - not Miles.
| clutched Lucas's arm. "Takeaway."
Without hesitation, he scoopedinto his arms. My head fell against his shoulder as strength left my body "Mr.
Blackwood, where are you taking my woman?" Ethan's voice cut through the hallway, sharp

pand dangerous.
Lucas met his stare unflinchingly. He looked down atwith respect. "Miss Winters, who do you want to go
with?"
"You! Takeaway..." | said without hesitation, refusing to even glance at Ethan.
Ethan's face darkened dangerously. The fact that | would choose Lucas over him seemed to infuriate him beyond
measure.
"Ethan, I'm not feeling well, Victoria's voice suddenly cut through the tension.
She emerged from a nearby room, clinging to Ethan's arm and swaying tically. So that was why Ethan was
here - he had been with Victoria.
Lucas carriedinto the elevator. As the doors began to close, | caught a final glimpse of the scene.
"Go back to the room and rest," Ethan said dismissively to Victoria.
As the elevator doors closed, | saw Victoria collapse tically. The last thing | saw was Ethan turning away
from her, his eyes fixed on the closing elevator. (Isabelle's POV)
| arrived at the Moonstone Dining Hall just in tto see Lucas carrying a drugged Olivia to his car. The sight
made my blood boil.
My grandmother had arranged for Olivia to meet Lucas - the man I'd admired for years. I'd wanted to expose
Olivia's past to my grandmother, but Mother had stopped me.
"Don't upset your grandmother," she'd warned. "Her heart can't take it."
Furious, I'd called Victoria. She suggested | arrange a "more suitable" date for Olivia.
I'd chosen Miles Lawrence-handsome, wealthy, and known for getting what he wanted. Td told him to drug Olivia
and force himself on her
But my plan had failed. Lucas had rushed to find Olivia, and now he was rescuing her like a princess.
My jealousy turned to rage. This was Miles's fault.
| stormed into the hotel and took the elevator to Miles's room. The drug had completely overtaken him by

He'd called for a woman to be sent to his room. When | knocked, his drugged mind assumed | was his ordered
companion.
He ripped the door open, his eyes bloodshot. Before | could speak, he grabbed my arm and yankedinside.
"Ahl Miles Lawrence, it's me, Isabelle Stone! Let go of me!" | screamed, my anger instantly turning to terror.
Miles was beyond reason. He tore at my clothes, pushingtoward the bed.
"You'll do," he growled, his voice unrecognizable.
My screams filled the room as | fought against him. Through my terror, | saw Victoria watching from the doorway.
Our eyes met briefly. Then, without a word, she turned and walked toward the elevator.
She was leavinghere. Leavingto be ruined.
In that moment, | understood Victoria cared for no one but herself. Now | would pay the price for helping her
destroy Olivia.
(Olivia's POV)
Lucas's car had barely made it two blocks when Ethan's vehicle appeared behind us, gaining rapidly.
"Cut him off, Ethan commanded from inside the pursuing car.

His fury was palpable. He had allowedto defy him before, but choosing another Alpha over him was
something he couldn't tolerate.
Maxwell Chen accelerated with expert precision, forcing Lucas to brake suddenly.
As Lucas swerved to avoid collision, my head hit the car window with a sickening thud. Fresh waves of dizziness
washed over me.
Lucas's expression tightened with concern. He eased off the accelerator, allowing Maxwell to bring us to a halt.
Before the car fully stopped, Ethan was out, striding toward us. He yanked open the back door and pulled me
into his arms.
"Get out," Ethan commanded Lucas, his voice frigid.
Lucas exited his car, moving to intervene, but Maxwell blocked his path. With a controlled movement, Lucas
pushed Maxwell aside.
"Mr. Stone, please behave yourself. Miss Winters just said she's coming with me."
"Mr. Blackwood, surely you don't take a woman's words seriously when she's upset," Ethan retorted, shielding

"Mr. Stone, are you sure it's just being upset, and not her true feelings?"
Lucas's question struck a nerve. Ethan's jaw clenched in anger.
The familiar scent of Ethan broughtback to awareness. | recognized him fully now, and panic surged
through me.
"Ethan, letgo...!" I struggled against his hold, pushing against his chest.
| would not go with him. Lucas had proven trustworthy, while Ethan had allowed Miles to drug me.
Seeing my revulsion, Ethan's eyes turned colder. Without warning, he bent down, his lips capturing mine as |
gasped for breath in the drug-induced heat.
