Chapter 134: Unexpected Encounters
(Aria’s POV)
Dominic noticed my prolonged silence as I stared after Dr. Lewis and his mother. He waved his hand in front of my face, breaking my trance.
“What’s wrong?” he asked with concern. “Come back to your senses.”

I blinked several times, shaking off the strange emptiness in my chest. Looking at him helplessly, I suggested quietly, “Let’s leave.”
My wolf whimpered softly within me, still unsettled by the encounter.
Dominic helped me into his luxury SUV with the Shadow Pack emblem. As soon as we left the hospital parking lot, his mobile phone rang.
“Dominic here,” he answered with Alpha authority.
“Alpha, this is Officer Martinez from territorial enforcement,” came the professional voice. “I have the information you requested about Alexander Reed’s call records.”
My ears perked up, remembering Dominic’s earlier suspicions about Alexander’s timing.
“What did you find?” Dominic asked, gripping the steering wheel tighter.
“Alexander Reed did contact our emergency line earlier today,” Martinez confirmed. “His call came in approximately fifteen minutes before your own emergency contact. He reported a suspected k********g and requested immediate assistance.”
I watched Dominic’s expression as this verification contradicted his suspicions.
“Are you certain about the timing?” Dominic pressed.
“Absolutely certain, Alpha. The call logs are timestamped.”
After ending the call, I expected Dominic to acknowledge Alexander’s innocence. Instead, he remained stubbornly skeptical.
“I still don’t believe it anyway,” he declared with characteristic obstinacy.
His refusal to accept clear evidence made me laugh despite everything. My wolf stirred with amusement.
“You’re incredibly stubborn,” I told him playfully. “But I agree with you completely.”
Dominic drove me back to my apartment at Moon Valley Residences. Upon entering, I discovered Aunt Sophia and Uncle Robert had been busy rearranging the entire space.
The sofa had been pushed into a corner. Uncle Robert stood on a stool, hammering hooks into the ceiling for
curtains.
“Aria! Thank the moon goddess you’re safe!” Aunt Sophia rushed over, her wolf’s scent betraying relief.
Her hands fluttered anxiously as she examined me for injuries.
“We heard about what happened. That crazy she–wolf Claire could have killed you!”

I’m fine just a sprained ankle, Freassured her Where’s Sadia?”
Aunt Sophia pointed toward the master bedroom with obvious pride. “She’s resting after all that frauma
Immediately sensed trouble. My wolf bristled beneath my skin as I moved toward the bedroom door
Upon opening it, I discovered what I had feared. Sadie and Aunt Sophia had moved all their belongings into the master bedroom during my absence.
Suitcases, clothes, and personal items were scattered across my former sleeping space. They had taken advantage of my k********g to claim the larger room.
“What is all this?” I asked with growing frustration.
Aunt Sophia appeared behind me with an apologetic but determined expression.
“Well, since the master bedroom is much bigger, it’s perfect for two people sharing,” she explained
reasonably. “You can take the smaller bedroom. It’s adequate for one person.”
I noticed my belongings had already been relocated to the smaller room. This wasn’t a suggestion–it was a completed takeover.
“You moved my things without asking?” I asked with disbelief.
The presumptuous behavior left me feeling helpless. My wolf bristled with indignation.
At this moment, Dominic, who had been silently observing with his powerful Alpha presence, suddenly spoke up with strategic timing.
“Actually, I’ve been thinking about Sadie’s employment situation,” he said casually. “I could arrange a position for her at the Territorial Administrative Bureau as a clerk through my connections.”
Aunt Sophia’s demeanor changed instantly. Her wolf’s scent spiked with excitement as she turned to face
him.
“The Territorial Administrative Bureau?” she repeated with enthusiasm. “That’s a government position!” Her eyes lit up with realization. Government jobs were considered “iron rice bowls” in werewolf society- secure positions with guaranteed benefits.
“It’s stable work with excellent benefits,” Dominic confirmed. “However, there is one consideration.” Aunt Sophia leaned forward eagerly. “What consideration?”
“The location is quite far,” Dominic explained thoughtfully. “About forty to fifty kilometers away in the southern districts.”
I watched this exchange with growing admiration for Dominic’s tactical brilliance. His silver–gray eyes gleamed with strategic satisfaction.
His offer was delivered with perfect Alpha generosity, though I caught the calculation behind his words. Aunt Sophia’s excitement reached new heights. Her wolf’s scent practically vibrated with joy.
