(Victoria's POV)
Half an hour later, I appeared at the Northern Territory Airport. Wearing a hat and mask, I cautiously made my way inside, pushing my wheelchair and carefully observing my surroundings with my emerald eyes.
I was unsure if the news of Emma's death had reached Ethan. Or if he had obtained evidence from Connor and handed it to the Northern Territory Enforcers.
My wolf remained deeply buried within me, still traumatized by recent events. Every shadow seemed threatening, every sound made me jump.
I waited anxiously outside the airport terminal, feeling every second drag on. My enhanced werewolf senses picked up the scents of various pack members passing by.
Finally, I went through border control and security check. At security, when asked to remove my mask and hat, I became extremely nervous.
I was afraid that a warrant had been issued by the Northern Territory Enforcers and I would be stopped. The few minutes felt like an eternity.
I was drenched in sweat, but I maintained a calm facade. I answered questions steadily while my wolf whimpered anxiously beneath my skin.
"Purpose of travel?" the security officer asked.
"Medical treatment," I replied smoothly. "Seeking specialized care for my condition."
Once I was cleared, a wave of relief washed over me. I believed that once I left pack territory, I would be beyond the reach of pack law and remain free.
The tense feeling in my chest truly relaxed when I received my documents back. My wolf finally settled slightly within me.
A surge of smugness arose in my heart. Even if they knew I had maliciously orchestrated Emma's death, that little manipulator, they still couldn't touch me once I crossed into human territory.
"That bitch wanted to use Emma against me, in her next life!" I thought triumphantly.
As I pushed my wheelchair forward, I realized it wouldn't move. Someone was holding it back.
Annoyed, I turned to see a strange man whose scent I didn't recognize. "What are you doing? Get your hands off me," I said, irritated.
The man didn't react, but forcefully pulled me and the wheelchair backward. His grip was unnaturally strong.
I regained control of the wheelchair, my anger surging as my wolf snarled beneath my skin. I was about to lash out when I looked up.
I saw a face I deeply loved but didn't want to see at that moment: Ethan Stone. His amber eyes burned with cold fury, and his Alpha pheromones filled the air with dangerous intensity.
He had come after me. My face paled, my heart sinking as my wolf retreated deeper within me.
The triumph I felt moments ago vanished. Frantically, I tried to move the wheelchair forward, desperate to board the plane and escape pack territory.
I couldn't accept this. But my path was blocked again by Ethan's imposing frame.
His icy voice echoed above me, carrying the full weight of his Alpha authority. "Victoria, how does it feel to be just a step away?"
"This is just the beginning."
Ethan's words sealed my fate, his Alpha dominance pressing down on my weakened wolf. Overwhelmed by fear, I looked at Ethan and pleaded with tears in my emerald eyes.
"Ethan, we were mates for years. For the sake of our bond, please let me go this time."
"I really know I was wrong and have received the punishment I deserve. I've lost my ability to shift, my mate bond, and my only daughter."
"I have nothing left now, please just let me leave pack territory, okay?"
"For the rest of my life, I will repent and pray for Lily, and serve her memory in the next life..."
