Chapter 476: The Risk

Olivia’s POV

For a moment, a heavy and suffocating silence filled the room. Everyone stood frozen, trying to process what the healer had just said. Me? I couldn’t even breathe.

My hands instinctively went to my belly. There was life inside me. Tiny, fragile, pure. But to save that life, I’d have to stop the ritual—the same ritual keeping Lennox alive.

"No..." I whispered, shaking my head slowly. "I can’t stop. We’re too close. It’s only two days left."

The healer’s expression turned serious. "Child, listen to me carefully. If you continue this blood ritual, you’re endangering not just your life, but your pup’s. The spell drains your energy—and that energy is shared with the little one inside you."

"I don’t care!" I snapped, tears burning my eyes. "I’ve come this far. I can’t give up on Lennox now. He’s almost there, I can feel it!"

Levi moved closer, his voice trembling but firm. "Olivia, please. You have to stop this. There’ll be other ways to help him. We’ll find them together—I swear it."

I shook my head violently. "No, you don’t understand! The witch said seven days. If I stop now, everything I’ve done will be for nothing!"

"Everything?" Levi’s voice cracked, anger slipping through his calm. "You think losing our child is nothing?!"

His words hit me like a slap.

Tears spilled down my cheeks as I met his gaze. "Don’t make me choose," I whispered brokenly. "Please don’t."

Louis’s jaw tightened as he took a step forward, his voice low and shaking. "You’re not thinking straight, Olivia! You’re risking your life—our child’s life—for a man who might already be gone!"

"Don’t say that!" I screamed, clutching my stomach protectively. "He’s not gone! He’s fighting, and I won’t abandon him like everyone else has!"
