Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 525

Chapter 525: See Him

Olivia’s POV

After we finally put the boys to bed in their room, I went to the room I shared with Levi and Louis.

I lay between Levi and Louis, staring at the ceiling. Sleep didn’t come easily anymore. Not when Lennox haunted the corners of my mind. Not when the feeling of something missing grew stronger every day.

Louis draped an arm around my waist from behind while Levi pulled my hand into his chest. Their warmth should have comforted me, but instead... it made my heart ache.

Because no matter how loved I was... a part of me still belonged somewhere else.

Levi and Louis didn’t notice my mood because they were so exhausted from their Alpha duties and just went to bed.

For hours I lay between them, my eyes staring at the ceiling as I thought of Lennox... What has become of him?

At some point, exhaustion dragged my eyes shut.

And then—I wasn’t in bed anymore.

I was standing in a dark forest.

My feet moved on their own, crunching leaves beneath me as I walked deeper into the darkness.

"Lennox?" I called softly.

No answer.

"Lennox... please."

My voice echoed through the woods like it wasn’t mine.

Then suddenly—

A figure stepped out from the shadows.

Tall. Broad. Familiar. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

My breath caught.

"L-Lennox...?"

He stepped closer, the darkness peeling away just enough for me to see his face.

His eyes—once warm and wild—were hollow now. Sunken. Haunted.

He looked like someone who had been trapped between life and death for years.

My chest tightened painfully. "Oh Goddess..."

I took a step toward him.

He didn’t move.

His chest rose and fell sharply, like breathing hurt.

I reached for him. "Lennox... it’s me. I’m here."

He flinched.

Then he snapped forward, gripping my neck—not choking me, but holding me in place, his fingers trembling.

His voice was raw and broken.

"You too...?"

I froze.

His eyes stared into mine—hurt, wild, and pained.

"Y–you too?" he repeated, his voice cracking. "You abandoned me too?"

Pain stabbed through me so hard I couldn’t breathe.

"No," I whispered, shaking my head as tears fell. "No, Lennox—I never abandoned you. Never."

His grip tightened slightly, his jaw clenched as if fighting something inside him.

A growl rumbled in his chest—deep, agonizing.

"You left me alone," he whispered harshly. "You never came to check up on me."

"I—" my voice broke, "I didn’t know where you were—Levi said—Louis said—"

His eyes darkened, full of sorrow and rage.

"You never looked for me."

My heart shattered.

"I’m sorry," I cried. "I’m so sorry—I didn’t know what to do—"

Suddenly he pulled me closer, his forehead pressing painfully against mine.

His breath was shaky. "I waited, Olivia."

My tears dripped onto his hands.

"Every. Single. Day."

I sobbed, "I’m here now—please, Lennox—I’m here—"

He shut his eyes, a tear rolling down his cheek.

Then he whispered in a voice so broken it tore me apart:

"I hate you, Olivia."

I sobbed... shaking my head—

And then I jerked awake.

My whole body jerked violently as I gasped, sitting up in bed so fast the blankets flew off me.
