Fated To Not Just One, But Three

Chapter 114: Fight

Levi's POV

"Levi, do you know what you are doing?" Louis was the first to speak.

I nodded. "Yes. What I should have done a long time ago," I responded with regret. For a moment, I wished I hadn't let things escalate this far.

"Are you out of your mind?" Louis growled, stepping forward toward me.

"Yes. I know exactly what I am doing," I spat back at Louis.

Lennox stepped forward and folded his arms, his eyes softening.

"Are you putting up this act just because of the full moon? So she will allow you to touch her?" Lennox asked, and that got me enraged. How could he think such a thing?

My eyes darkened as I took a step toward Lennox.

"Don't you ever say that again," I warned, my voice low but full of warning. "This isn't about the full moon. This isn't about getting her to sleep with me. This is about her. About my feelings for her. I messed up, I know that—I own that. But don't you dare question what I feel for her."

"And what do you feel for her?" Louis barked at me.

My frown deepened, but I still went on to answer.

"Love." I said it loud and clear. But I didn't end there. "I have loved Olivia for a long time but kept it hidden from you and acted like I liked her like a big brother when in truth I loved her."

Louis froze, his mouth slightly ajar, while Lennox blinked like I'd just grown a second head.

"You what?" Louis asked, his voice dropping.

"I loved her," I repeated, quieter now but just as certain. "Even when she was just a little girl, when she looked up to all of us like we were her whole world, I already felt it. I knew it was wrong, that she was too young, that I wasn't supposed to feel that way—but I did. And I kept it hidden, waiting for the right moment. But when the moment came, it was a disaster."

Louis scoffed. "You can't be serious! You hurt her, Levi, and now you want to act like the perfect guy who has loved her all this while?"

"I know I made mistakes," I said, my hands balling into fists at my sides. "Don't you think I live with that every damn day? Every time I saw her flinch when I walked into a room, every time she smiled at someone else but never me, every time Anita insulted her and I said nothing—I hated myself."
