Chapter 303: The War

Lennox’s POV

It felt like half of me had left with Olivia.

The excitement I’d been feeling just minutes ago was gone, snuffed out like a candle in the wind. Even my wolf, who had been wagging his tail in my mind ever since she was here, was now silent and brooding.

I let out a frustrated sigh and lay back on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
