Chapter 55: What is wrong With Levi
Louis POV
We were all having Lunch —my brothers and I, Anita, and then Olivia. My eyes drifted to Anita, who was calmly eating her al. This morning, she seed so quiet, unlike her usual self who talks so much.
Ignoring her, I moved my eyes to Lennox, who seed too busy eating his al. He looked like he was trying to hurry and leave the table. My eyes then settled on Levi, and I noticed sothing. He wasn't eating—in fact, he was playing with his food, and his eyes were on Olivia, who wasn't paying attention to him as she ate calmly.
I looked in Olivia's direction and couldn't help but stare at her. Now I know why Levi couldn't take his eyes off her. There was sothing different about her, and it's not just the new blonde color of her hair. It was sothing entirely different about her appearance.
"Mine," my wolf purred in delight while I continued staring at her, unable to take my eyes off her.
She must have noticed staring because she lifted her gaze and looked my way, our gaze eting. I didn't look away—rather, I continued staring at her. Olivia frowned before looking away.
"Louis, are you attending Alpha Thor's birthday party? I can co with you," Anita said softly, drawing my attention back to her.
Today was Alpha Thor's birthday, and he had invited us, but all three of us couldn't leave the pack, so I volunteered to attend, even though I didn't feel like it.
"Co on, let accompany you," Anita pressed on.
I frowned, going back to my al. "No, Anita, I would like to go on my own," I said. Going with Anita would be a disaster. She was a 'notice ' kind of lady, and she brags too much. I don't need such company.
"Louis, what changed? You used to love attending occasions with you."
I wasn't in the mood for much talk, so I ignored her and continued eating, but just then, Olivia pulled back her seat, stood up, and walked away.
Levi's eyes trailed after her too, his jaw tightening slightly. There it was again—that tension I'd noticed between them. Did sothing happen between those two? Or was it all in Levi's head?
"Seriously, Louis, are you just going to ignore now?" Anita's voice cut through the silence like a blade.
I sighed, dropping my fork. "Anita, not now," I said firmly, my tone making it clear I wasn't up for any of her drama.
"But I—"
"I said not now." I looked at her, and for once, she shut up, probably because of the look in my eyes.
The silence returned. Lennox pushed his chair back and mumbled sothing about training, practically bolting out of the room. Levi stood too, but he didn't say a word. He just walked out, probably going after Olivia.
A low growl rumbled in my chest at the thought.
Why was he suddenly after Olivia? What had changed? Did sothing happen between them? A strange feeling of jealousy bubbled inside of . We were supposed to be on the journey of hating her. Why was Levi suddenly having a change of heart? I thought he said she hurt him? Although I don't know what she did to him because he has refused to say it, but I think it wasn't as painful as what she did to . Olivia practically killed —not with a knife, not with stones, not with action, but by her words. She killed with her words.
I rose from the table, my appetite long gone.
Without another word to Anita, who was still sulking in her seat, I walked out of the dining hall. My boots echoed through the marble corridor as I made my way to the garage. The guards on duty straightened up imdiately when they saw approaching.
"Prepare the car," I ordered curtly.
One of them opened the black SUV while the other two motioned to the warriors to ready the vans. Two fully loaded vans rolled into position behind my car, each one filled with pack warriors. They were to accompany to the Trumiant Pack.
As I slid into the back seat, the door shut behind with a dull thud. The engine roared to life. I rested my elbow on the window fra, eyes fixed on the fading image of the pack house in the rearview mirror.
But my mind wasn't on Alpha Thor or his birthday.
It was on Olivia.
Her face haunted —the calm way she eats, the way she ignored like I didn't exist. That used to be my power. I was the one who used to look at her like she didn't matter, like she was invisible. Now the tables had turned.
"Mine," my wolf whispered again, more urgently this ti, like he was getting impatient with .
I ran a hand through my hair, frustration building.
What was wrong with Levi? He hated her. We both did. That had been our shared bond—the betrayal, the pain, the anger. We never talked about the details of what she did to us, but we didn't need to. We understood each other's silence.
So why was he looking at her like she was the moon in his night sky?
I clenched my jaw. No. She's not his. She can't be. If Levi had truly forgiven her, then he was a fool. And if he hadn't, then what the hell was he doing watching her like that?
As we exited the territory gate and the forest opened up into the broader roads leading toward Trumiant Pack, I leaned forward.
"Be alert," I said to the driver.
He nodded. "Yes, Alpha."
I didn't say anything else. I leaned back into my seat, closing my eyes briefly as the hum of the engine soothed the storm in my chest.
But even then… I saw her face.
Her blonde hair.
The quiet, unreadable expression.
And that damn ache in my chest that refused to go away.
Olivia, what did you do to ?
