<b>Chapter </b><b>160</b><b>: </b><b>Pack </b><b>Justice </b><b>(</b>Revised<b>) </b>


    <b>Chapter </b>160: Pack Justice


    <b>(</b>Connor’s POV)


    The things that Vanessa Reed did before were mostly aimed at Olivia Winters. So today, I specially called


    Olivia over to the Rivers Pack Mansion.


    The grand hall felt different now, charged with tension that made my wolf pace restlessly beneath my skin. Pack members gathered in small clusters, their voices hushed as they sensed the gravity of what was about


    <b>to </b>unfold.


    Olivia sat beside me on the main couch, her amber eyes reflecting concern and uncertainty. Her honey–brown hair caught the afternoon light streaming through the tall windows, and I could smell her familiar scent of


    vani and wildflowers.


    “Connor, what’s this about?” she asked softly, her hand finding mine.


    “Justice,” I replied simply, my ice–blue eyes fixed on the entrance.


    The atmosphere in the hall was thick with anticipation. Pack members who had heard whispers of Vanessa’s betrayal waited to see how their Alpha would handle this unprecedented situation.


    My phone buzzed against my ear as I made the call. “Bring in the prisoner.”


    Eleanor Rivers burst through the main doors, her silver hair slightly disheveled from her rushed journey. She had abandoned her medical retreat the moment she received word of my important announcement. “Connor, what is all thismotion about?” she demanded, her blue eyes scanning the assembled pack members with growing rm.


    William Rivers followed close behind, his business suit wrinkled from dropping everything to attend this emergency gathering. His expression was grim as he took in the formal arrangement of the hall. “Son, what’s happening here?” he asked, though his tone suggested he already suspected the answer. I remained seated, my posture radiating Alpha authority. “You’ll understand in a moment, Father.” Eleanor’s eyes narrowed as she studied my face. “Connor Rivers, you better have a good exnation for dragging me away from my treatment.”


    Five minutester, the heavy doors opened again. Dominic Reeves entered, his expression professionally neutral as he escorted a figure that made the entire hall fall silent.


    Vanessa Reed stumbled forward, her once–pristine appearance now haggard and broken. Her violet eyes were red–rimmed from crying, her light brown hair matted and unkempt.


    The silverced restraints around her wrists had left angry red marks on her pale skin. Her clothes were wrinkled and stained, a far cry from the elegant foster daughter who once graced these halls.


    Eleanor gasped, her hand flying to her chest. “Vanessa! My dear child<b>, </b>what have they done to you?”


    Vanessa’s eyes immediately found Eleanor’s face, tears streaming down her cheeks. <b>“</b>Grandmother<b>!</b><b>” </b><b>she </b>cried out, her voice breaking with desperate emotion.


    <Chapter 160 Pack Justice.


    <b>The </b><b>old </b>woman’s heart visibly ached at the sight. She knew about Vanessa’s involvement <b>with </b><b>Frederick </b><b>Warner</b>, but the extent of her crimes remained hidden from her knowledge.


    <b>Eleanor </b>had no idea about Vanessa’s maniption of Ethan Grey to involve the authorities. She didn’t <b>know </b>about the threats against Jessica Sullivan or the k********g of Grace Winters.


    Most importantly, she was unaware that Vanessa had wielded the silver de that I had taken for <b>Olivia</b>.


    <b>“</b>Connor, how could you treat her like this?” Eleanor demanded, her voice shaking with outrage<b>. </b>“She’s family<b>!</b><b>” </b>


    I stood slowly, my full heightmanding attention from every person in the hall. My wolf’s authority pressed against the room like a physical force.


    “Vanessa Reed,” I announced coldly, “you are hereby expelled from the Rivers pack.”


    The words hit the hall like a thunderp. Pack members exchanged shocked nces, while Eleanor’s face


    went pale.


    “Furthermore,” I continued, my ice–blue eyes boring into Vanessa’s violet ones, “you will kneel and apologize to Olivia Winters for your crimes against her.”


    Eleanor stepped forward, her voice rising with indignation. “Connor Rivers! How dare you treat your foster sister with such cruelty?”


    “She is no longer my foster sister,” I replied with Alpha finality. “She forfeited that right when she betrayed


    this pack.”


    William tried to intervene, his voice heavy with knowledge of Vanessa’s true crimes. <b>“</b>Mother, you don’t understand the full extent of what she’s done.”


    But Eleanor’s protective instincts overrode reason. “I don’t care what she’s done! She’s still the little girl we


    raised!”


    Vanessa lifted her chin defiantly, her violet eyes shing with stubborn pride. “I won’t kneel to her,” she dered, her voice carrying traces of her old arrogance.


    “I did nothing wrong,<i>” </i>she continued, her wolf finally showing some fight. “Everything I did was justified!” My wolf snarled beneath the surface, demanding submission from the rogue who dared defy packw. “You will apologize, or face the consequences.”


    Eleanor’s voice cracked with emotion. “Connor, where is your heart? You used to care for Vanessa so much. You protected her, cherished her as family.”


    The usation in her words made my jaw clench. “That was before I learned the truth about her incestuous desires and herplete disregard for pack life.”


    The words dropped into the hall like stones into still water. Eleanor’s face went white, her hand clutching at her chest as the implications hit her.


    “What… what did you say<b>?</b><b><i>” </i></b>she whispered, her voice barely audible,


    William stepped forward quickly, rm written across his features. “Connor, stop. Think about your grandmother’s heart condition.”


    But I was beyond caring about family sentiment when it came to protecting my mate. “I meant every word literally, Father.”

    Katherine Rivers, who had been silent until now, stared at Vanessa with growing horror. “Is this true<b>?</b>” she demanded, her amber eyes zing with maternal fury.


    Vanessa’s defiance crumbled under the weight of the usations. Her violet eyes filled with desperate tears, but she couldn’t deny what everyone now knew.


    “I…” she started, then stopped, her voice failing her.


    Katherine’s face flushed with outrage. “How could you harbor such twisted feelings? Connor is your foster


    brother!”


    William sighed heavily, the sound carrying years of disappointment and regret. “I should have seen the signs


    earlier.”


    My patience finally snapped. My Alpha wolf demanded justice, and I would <i>not </i>be denied. “Apologize to


    Olivia. Now.”


    Vanessa’sposure shatteredpletely. “Why can’t you love me back?” she screamed, her voice <i>echoing </i>off the high ceilings.


    “I’ve loved you for years! Why can’t you see that? Why does it have to be her?”


    The raw emotion in her voice made several pack members shift ufortably. But Katherine Rivers had heard enough.


    The sharp c***k of her palm against Vanessa’s cheek rang through the hall. “Stop talking nonsense here!” Katherine said, her voice shaking with fury.


    “Connor is your foster brother! Even if you leave the Rivers pack, there is no possibility between you and him!” Vanessa’s head snapped to the side from the force of the p. When she turned back, her violet eyes burned with years of suppressed rage.


    “I didn’t want to be your foster daughter at all!” she roared, her wolf finally showing its true nature through her desperate fury.


    The confession hung in the air like a poison cloud. Eleanor clutched her chest, her breathing bingbored as the full weight of Vanessa’s betrayal hit her.


    William rushed to his mother’s side, genuine fear in his eyes. “Connor, stop this. Your grandmother can’t take


    much more.”


    But I was unmoved by family sentiment when it came to protecting my mate. Justice demandedpletion, regardless of the cost.


    “Dominic,” Imanded, my voice carrying absolute Alpha authority. “Force her to kneel and perform the traditional pack submission to Olivia.”


    Dominic Reeves moved without hesitation. His hands pressed down on Vanessa’s shoulders, forcing her to her knees before Olivia’s chair.


    Vanessa struggled against his grip, but the silver restraints had weakened her wolf too much to resist effectively. Her head was pushed down in the traditional gesture of submission.


    Eleanor watched the scene unfold, her face pale and her breathing shallow. The sight of her beloved foster granddaughter being forced into submission was too much for her fragile heart.

    “<b>I </b>can’t… I can’t watch this,” she whispered, her voice breaking.


    She turned away from the scene, her hand still pressed to her chest. “Deal with these messes yourselves,”


    she said weakly.
