Fated To Not Just One, But Three

Chapter 108

Chapter 108: Attacked

Olivia's POV

Levi and I had barely made it down the stairs when a shout echoed from outside the pack house gates.

"Open up!"

We rushed outside, hearts racing, and what we saw stopped us cold.

Lennox was staggering through the front gates of the mansion, drenched in blood, one hand gripping his side while the other dragged along the ground for support. His shirt was torn, soaked through, and blood dripped from his fingertips onto the gravel path. His steps were slow, like he could collapse at any second.

"Lennox!" I screamed.

"Guards!" Levi bellowed, charging forward. I ran with him, fear crashing over me like a wave.

As we reached him, Lennox looked up. His face was pale, lips trembling, blood smeared across his cheek. But when he saw me, something like relief flickered in his eyes.

And then he collapsed—straight into my arms.

The force of his body knocked me down, and we both hit the ground. My hands immediately went to his face.

"Lennox! Lennox, stay with me!" I cried, brushing his hair back. "What happened?"

"Call the healer now!" Levi ordered the guards, who were already rushing toward us.

"I… I went to the woods for a night run…" Lennox's voice was weak, raspy. Blood stained his teeth as he coughed again, more of it spilling from his mouth. "Rogues… they attacked me. But not just any rogues… they had Wolfsbane…"

My heart dropped.

Wolfsbane

That explained the blood. The weakness. The fact that his wolf wasn't healing him.

"It weakened me," Lennox whispered, his head resting against my chest. "I tried… I tried to fight, but there were too many…" he coughed out more blood and then looked up at me… his green piercing eyes losing their life.

"Olivia, I feel like I am dying… my organs are shutting down."

"No, no, don't talk like that," I cried, cupping his face. "You're going to be okay, Lennox. You're not dying."

He smiled faintly, pain etched into every line of his face. "If I am… at least I'm dying in your arms."

"You're not dying! You're strong! You're a
