Chapter 630: Apologise

Olivia’s POV

Levi reached out gently, stopping me before I could walk away.

"Olivia... wait," he said softly.

I turned halfway, not fully facing him.

"You don’t have to explain everything," Levi continued. "I know you’re upset. I know this whole thing hurts."

His voice dropped lower.

"But please understand something," he said. "Seeing you with another Alpha... hearing people talk... it messes with our heads."

He sighed and ran a hand through his hair.

"We’re not trying to control you," he added quickly. "We’re just scared."

My chest tightened.

"Scared of losing you," Levi admitted. "Scared that one day you’ll wake up and decide you’re better off without us."

He looked at me then, really looked at me.

"If you say it’s nothing," he said quietly, "I’ll believe you. I just... needed to hear it from you."

He stepped back slightly, giving me space.

"We still trust you," he said. "We just don’t know how to handle this distance yet."

His voice softened at the end.

"Please don’t shut us out completely."

I wished I could just tell them the truth right there.

That it was nothing.

That I wasn’t looking for another man.

That I wasn’t replacing them.

That I still loved them—deeply.

That the thought of settling for someone else had never crossed my mind. Not even once.

But the words stayed trapped in my chest.

My throat tightened.

My emotions swirled too fast, too loud.

If I opened my mouth, I knew I would either cry...

Or say something I didn’t mean.

So I stayed quiet.

Not because I didn’t care.

But because I was tired.

Tired of always explaining myself.

Tired of defending my feelings.

Tired of proving that my love was real.

I didn’t want to explain myself in anger.

I didn’t want my words twisted by hurt and jealousy.

I turned away before my face betrayed me.

Before they saw how much this was affecting me.

"I’m going to the boys," I said quietly.

Neither Levi nor Louis stopped me.

When I reached the boys’ room, they were already half asleep.

Leon was hugging his pillow.

Liam was whispering to Leo about school tomorrow.

"Mom," Leo said when he saw me. "Are you sleeping here tonight?"

I smiled softly and walked in.

"I’ll always come say goodnight," I told them.

I tucked them in one by one.

Pulled their blankets up.

Turned off the lights.

"Good night, my loves," I whispered.

"We love you, Mom," Leon murmured.

"I love you more," I replied.

I stood there for a moment after they fell asleep.

I didn’t want them to ever feel my absence.

Even if I wasn’t sleeping in the same house as them,

I would never stop being present for them.

Never.

Alone With My Thoughts

I teleported to my room.

The space was quiet.

Too quiet.

I took a long bath, hoping it would calm my racing thoughts.

But it didn’t.

When I lay down, Lennox’s face kept coming back to me.

His anger.

His jealousy.

The way he slammed the table.

So I forced myself to imagine it differently.

I imagined them in my place.

I imagined walking into a room and hearing people say they saw Lennox or Levi or Louis dancing closely with another woman.

Just imagining it made my chest burn.

Jealousy curled inside me.

Pain.

Fear.

My wolf stirred.

Understand them, she whispered.

And I did.

For the first time, I truly did.

They weren’t angry because they didn’t trust me.

They were angry because they were scared.

Scared of losing me.

I exhaled slowly.

I’ll talk to them tomorrow, I decided.

I’ll explain everything.

They had to learn to trust me again.

Trust was part of healing.

At dawn, I appeared in the boys’ room.

Leo groaned.

Liam hid under his blanket.

Leon blinked sleepily at me.

"Morning," I said gently.

"Mom!" Leon smiled.

I helped them brush their teeth.

Pick their clothes.

Fix their hair.

I didn’t want them to wake up and feel like I was gone.

Even if things were complicated between the adults...

I would never disappear on them.

We went downstairs together.

Lennox was already there, standing near the table with a cup of coffee in his hand. Levi and Louis were seated, talking quietly. The moment the boys saw them, everything changed.

"Good morning, Daddies!" Leon said happily as he ran forward.

Lennox’s face softened instantly. He bent down and opened his arms. "Good morning, my boy."

Leo joined them, while Liam ran to Levi, tugging at his sleeve. "Daddy, I’m going to be late today," he said excitedly. "We have a race at school."

Levi smiled faintly. "Then you better win," he replied, ruffling Liam’s hair.

For a moment, the house felt normal again.

We all sat down to eat.

Plates were passed. Chairs scraped softly against the floor. Spoons clinked against bowls.

But the air felt tight.

No one talked much.

Lennox kept his eyes on his food.

Louis watched the boys carefully, like he was afraid to miss something.

Levi glanced at me once... then looked away.

I focused on the boys, smiling when they spoke, nodding when they laughed, hiding the unease inside my chest.

When breakfast was over, the boys grabbed their bags.

"Bye, Mom!" Leo called as he ran toward the door.

"Bye, Daddy!" Liam added, waving at all of them at once.

"Be good," Louis said.

"Listen to your teacher," Lennox added.

The door closed behind them.

Their laughter faded down the hallway.

And just like that...

The house went quiet.

It was just us.

I opened my mouth to speak.

But Lennox spoke first.

"I owe you an apology," he said quietly.

I froze.

Levi and Louis both looked at him in surprise.

"I shouldn’t have acted the way I did last night," Lennox continued. "I let my fear speak instead of my trust."

My heart skipped.

"I trust you," he said. "I really do."

That... wasn’t the Lennox I expected.

The old Lennox would have argued.

Raised his voice.

Defended his anger.

But this Lennox looked... calmer.

"I shouldn’t have questioned you in front of everyone," he added. "I’m sorry."

I swallowed hard.

"Thank you," I said softly.

"I need you all to understand something," I continued.

"I danced. Yes. But that was all."

I looked at each of them.

"I’m not looking for another man. I’m not in love with anyone else."

Louis relaxed slightly.

"I’m tired," I admitted. "Tired of being watched. Judged. Expected to be perfect all the time."

My voice trembled.

"But loving you three?" I said. "That never stopped."

Silence filled the room.

Then Levi spoke. "We should have trusted you more."

Louis nodded. "We should have listened."

Lennox stepped closer.

"We’re healing," he said quietly. "All of us."

I nodded.

The tension didn’t disappear completely.

But it softened.

And for the first time in a while...

It felt like we were finally walking forward.

Together.
