Olivia’s POV 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Louis caught me as I fell beside Lennox’s body. His skin was so cold it didn’t even feel real. His lips were pale, and his chest didn’t rise.
"Lennox..." I whispered again, brushing my fingers over his cheek. "No, no, please... don’t do this."
Louis’s golden eyes blazed with fury and grief. "Do something!" he yelled at Frederick, his voice breaking. "You’re supposed to be powerful—help him!"
Frederick knelt beside Lennox and pressed two fingers to his neck. His face darkened instantly. "He’s not breathing."
Levi fell to his knees beside us, his voice shaking. "Lennox, please," he whispered. "Don’t do this. Don’t leave us. You hear me?"
My tears dripped onto Lennox’s shirt. My whole body trembled. "Please... wake up. You can’t leave me."
But there was nothing. No movement. No sound. No heartbeat.
Louis roared—a broken, animal sound that made the ground vibrate. Levi covered his face, shoulders shaking as he whispered his brother’s name again and again.
I grabbed the collar at my throat. "Take it off!" I screamed. "The choker—take it off! I can heal him!"
Frederick’s head snapped up. He turned toward the masked man, who was lying near the wall, barely alive. Blood poured from his side. Frederick didn’t hesitate—he shoved the man onto his back and searched his coat pockets.
Finally, he pulled out a small silver key. Without a word, he rushed back and unlocked the collar around my neck.
The moment it clicked open, I felt it—a rush of energy like a thousand stars exploding through my veins. My wolf came alive with a cry of freedom, howling inside me as her power surged.
I pressed my hands over Lennox’s chest. "Please," I whispered, my voice shaking. "Let this work."
Light poured from my palms, bright and wild. My healing power rushed into him—warm, glowing, and powerful. But he didn’t move.
"Come on," I begged, tears streaming down my face. "Please, Lennox... come back to me!"
The light flared brighter, but his chest stayed still. My wolf whimpered inside me. I was trying everything—calling him through the bond, pouring every ounce of strength I had—but nothing was working.
Louis grabbed my wrist. "Olivia, stop. You’re going to burn yourself out."
I shook my head violently. "No! I can’t stop! He saved me—he traded his life for mine! I won’t lose him!"
Frederick’s voice was low but firm. "We can’t do this here. We need to move him before it’s too late."
Levi stood, eyes glassy, his voice breaking. "I’ll carry him."
He lifted Lennox’s limp body gently into his arms, his jaw clenched tight. "We’re taking him home."
I wiped my tears roughly and nodded. "Everyone, hold hands. Now!"
We connected our hands with each other. My other hand rested on Lennox’s chest.
"Hold on to me," I whispered, focusing on the image of Lennox’s room. My teleporting ability surged forward.
The ground cracked beneath us. The air folded in on itself.
And then—whoosh!
The cold, bloody chamber vanished.
When I opened my eyes, we were standing in Lennox’s room. The scent of home hit me instantly.
