Chapter 188: Lose Two Things

Olivia POV

With furrowed brows, I watched the scene unfolding before me.

Sir Damon marched up to his sons, his face thunderous.

"And what is this I’m hearing? That you’d rather lose your children than mark Anita?" he spat, glaring at his son.

My confusion deepened as I tried to make sense of what was happening. Through the gossip Nora and Lolita shared with me, they told me Anita had been crying in pain, and the Alphas had rushed her to the hospital.

But now this? The realization that they were being told to mark her—to save the pups?

"Father, we’ve made our decision—" Lennox began, but Sir Damon cut him off sharply.

"What fucking decision, Lennox? A decision to abandon your own blood? To let innocent pups die instead of marking their mother?"

A long, heavy silence followed. I remained frozen, my eyes bouncing between them, trying to understand what I was hearing.

Then Louis stepped forward, his voice authoritative.

"Because marking Anita... means losing Olivia."

They all turned to look at me.

Levi’s jaw clenched. "And we won’t let that happen."

Lennox nodded. "Not now. Not ever."

My heart slammed against my ribs. I didn’t know how to feel. Part of me felt a pang of empathy at the thought of the children, but another part—one I didn’t want to admit—ached at the sincerity in their voices.

Lady Fiona opened her mouth to speak again, but this time, Lennox cut her off.

"That’s enough."

His voice was calm but final. It made even Sir Damon pause.

"This situation with Anita and the babies... it’s our responsibility. Not yours. You raised us, yes. You care, we know. But don’t forget something important..."
