Chapter 991: Finding Olivia (4)
“Olivia,” Talia called gently. She could use her Alpha command to force Olivia to obey her, but she wanted Olivia to do this on her own.
In order to help Olivia see the situation clearly, Talia used her aura to obstruct the mate bond between Olivia and Luis. That bond was set to pull two together, no matter how toxic the situation was.

“Do you remember how you read the Cinderella story to me?” Talia asked. “I loved it because a prince came and rescued a poor girl. I spent my days imagining I was Cinderella and Omegas in the packhouse were my evil stepsisters. I was living in the attic and waiting for my prince to rescue me.” She glanced at Damon. “I believe that fairytales can come true. Maybe not in the literal sense, but they tell us there is such a thing as a happy ending, and we don’t need to suffer abuse and neglect.”

Talia held Olivia’s hands and squeezed a little. “I remember how happy you were when you told me you found your mate. Look at him. He is not a prince. He is a monster. Being alone is better than this. I want to rescue you, but you need to be strong enough to push him away. Reject him as your mate. A mate should love you and treat you well, and not make you shrink in fear.”

Olivia took a few shaky breaths and then looked at Luis who was sprawled on the floor, unable to get up under the pressure of Damon’s Alpha aura.

With the pull of the bond diminished, Olivia saw Luis in a different light.

Somehow, the so far intimidating Luis looked small, and he would be pitiful if not for that sneer on his face. Why was she infatuated with him? When she left the Red Moon pack, Olivia was full of hopes and dreams, and Luis shattered them all at once to show her that reality was ugly and full of pain.

Olivia had no idea what Talia was offering, but nothing could be worse than this.
