Chapter 477: Not Happening
Levi's POV
| slammed the door the moment we entered my room. The sound echoed through the walls, and for a second, |
almost hoped it would drown out the rage boiling inside me.
"She's acting like she’s lost her damn mind!" | shouted, pacing back and forth. "Does she even hear herself
anymore? She's ready to risk our child for him—for a man who isn’t even breathing!"
Louis closed the door quietly behind him, his expression calm, though I could tell he was just as shaken. "Levi,
calm down."
"Calm down?" | snapped, turning on him. "You saw her, Louis! You heard her! She'd rather die than stop that
ritual. She doesn’t even care what it’s doing to her body."
Louis sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. "She’s not thinking clearly. You know how much she loves Lennox.
That bond is stronger than logic. You can’t reason with that."
| let out a bitter laugh and ran my hand through my hair. "Love? This isn’t love anymore, Louis. This is madness.
She’s drowning herself in guilt and calling it love."
Louis walked over to the window, staring out into the courtyard. "You're angry because you're scared," he said
quietly. "We both are."
| turned away, jaw tight. "Of course, I'm scared! | already lost one brother, and now | might lose her too. And the
worst part is... she won't even letsave her."
Louis didn’t answer right away. Rather, a tense silence hung in the air. Finally, he spoke. "You can’t force her to
stop, Levi."
| met his eyes sharply. "The hell | can’t. If | have to chain her to that bed to keep her alive, | will."
Louis frowned. "You'll only push her further away."
"Then let her hate me," | growled. "I'd rather she hateand live than loveand die."
He sighed, running his fingers through his hair. "You know, sometimes | think the Moon Goddess made a mistake
binding us all together like this. We're three hearts constantly fighting for one woman who can’t choose peace."
I sank down on the edge of the bed, my anger dimming into exhaustion. "She doesn’t even see what this is doing
to us," | muttered. "To me. | can’t breathe when she looks at him like that, Louis. Like we don’t matter anymore."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLouis sat beside me, his tone softer. "We do matter. She's just... blinded right now. But when this is over, when
Lennox either wakes or doesn’t, she’ll need us. And we'll still be here."
I nodded, though my chest still felt like it was on fire. "I just wish she'd cback to her senses."
Louis gave a small, humorless smile. "That's Olivia for you. The more you try to save her, the harder she fights
back."
| stared at the floor, my fists clenched. "Then I'll fight harder."
Because even if she hatedfor it, | wasn’t letting her die for Lennox. Never.
| couldn't rest throughout the day. Every t| closed my eyes, | thought of Olivia and the risk. The thought
alone made my chest ache with anger and fear.
So | stayed up. And when the moon reached its highest point, | went to Lennox’s room.
The house was quiet, too quiet. Even the guards had lowered their voices in the halls, as if the air itself was
mourning.
When | entered, the faint glow from the candles illuminated Lennox’s still body. His skin looked colder tonight.
His chest rose and fell weakly, shallow breaths that barely counted as living.
I pulled a chair to the side of his bed and sat down, elbows resting on my knees, staring at him.
"Why does it always cback to you?" | muttered bitterly. "She’s breaking herself trying to save you. And |
can’t even hate you for it."
My voice cracked near the end, but | forced myself to stay quiet.
| knew Olivia would cat dawn—she was predictable that way. And | was right.
When the first faint light touched the windows, the door creaked open. She stepped in, wrapped in her night
robe, her hair a tangled mess, eyes weary. The witch trailed behind her, carrying her usual bowl of herbs and
blades.
Our eyes met, and the air instantly thickened.
"Levi," she said softly, almost as if testing the waters.
"It’s not happening," | said before she could move another inch.
Her brows furrowed. "What?"
"The ritual," | said firmly, rising to my feet. "It's over. You're not doing this again."
She took a slow, deliberate step closer. "Move, Levi."
"I'm not moving."
Her hand trembled slightly, but her voice didn’t. "Don’t do this."
"l already did," | said coldly. "You're risking your life and our child for a man who's half gone. | won't let you kill
yourself over him."
"You can’t stop me," she hissed, her voice rising.
"I can," | shot back. "And I will."
The witch looked between us nervously but stayed silent. The air in the room pulsed with tension, both our
wolves restless beneath the surface.
The door opened again, and our parents stepped in—my father’s eyes sharp, my mother’s lined with worry.
"Enough!" my father barked. "What's going on here?"
"She's trying to continue the ritual," | said tightly. "Even after the healer’s warning."

My father let out a frustrated sigh. "You sound like you want Lennox to stay in that bed forever," he said sharply.

"Then act like it!" my father snapped back. "Lennox is your brother. His life matters."

Olivia didn’t hesitate. "Yes," she said, her voice fierce and authoritative.
| looked straight at her; my frown deepened. "No," | said. "It's not happening."
