Chapter 387: Refusing

Olivia’s POV

Their idea made sense.

At least... a little sense.

But I wasn’t buying it. Not fully.

"I don’t agree to this." My arms folded tight across my chest, my voice sharp as a blade. "I already have a plan. I’ll find the vessel, destroy it, and kill Frederick myself. I don’t need a stranger to get involved. A stranger I don’t trust."

The words spat out of my lips. And I couldn’t even tell if I said them because I didn’t trust her—or because I couldn’t stand the sight of her standing so close to my mates.

Either way, I didn’t care. I wasn’t accepting this idea of theirs.

Louis stepped toward me, his expression calm but his wolf restless inside him. "Olivia, you can’t face Frederick alone. You know that. He’ll tear you apart before you even touch the vessel."

I scoffed. "Better me than letting her be near you three." My glare flicked toward the door as if I could see her from there.

"Liv," Lennox said carefully, his voice deep and pleasing. He moved closer, close enough that I could feel the heat of his presence. "She’s a weapon Frederick doesn’t expect. That makes her valuable."

My wolf growled inside me, furious at his calm tone. "Valuable?" I snapped. "So am I worthless to you now? You’d rather rely on her than on me?"

Levi stepped in quickly, his voice firm but soothing, the peacemaker as always. "That’s not what we’re saying. You are everything, Olivia. But Frederick... he’s not just another enemy. He’s older, stronger, and darker than anything we’ve fought before. If we ignore Selene’s blood, we’re walking blind into death."

I clenched my fists, every muscle in my body trembling with anger and hurt. Their logic pressed against me like iron, but my heart screamed louder.
