Levi’s POV
I couldn’t eat, despite how delicious the meal looked on the table. My wolf was pacing angrily in my head, growling at the memory of last night–how we fucked Anita in front of Olivia.
I didn’t know what had gotten into me or my brothers to let it happen. My case was
Standable–1 had my reasons. My hatred for Olivia had nothing to do with her father stealing that wasn’t my concern. I despised her for what she did to me, for what she said to me. That memory still burned in my mind, and I would make sure she suffered for it.
“Alpha Levi, you are not eating” Anita, who was seated beside me, spoke when she noticed I was picking at my meal. I sighed and looked at my brother’s plate to see that, just like mine, their food was untouched. I narrowed my eyes at them as I wondered why they weren’t eating, but before I could question it, I heard footsteps approaching the dining table.
“Mate!” My wolf was already perceiving her scent. Where I was seated, I groaned as the intoxicating smell of her hit my nose. Damn! Why does she have to smell this good?
I wasn’t the only one affected. My brothers lifted their heads, all of us instinctively turning toward the door.
A second passed. Then another.
And then Olivia walked in.
I swallowed hard, expecting her to look broken, devastated, at the very least, after what happened last night. But she wasn’t. She was composed, dressed like a Luna, walking with effortless grace, her head held high. presence.
When she reached the table, she didn’t say a word, hor did she acknowledge our Rather, she pulled out a seat, the one right across from me–and sat down, totally ignoring us. “Mate!” My wolf purred inside, captivated by her scent, but I put him at bay and exchanged glances with my brothers, who had the same expression as me.
“Olivia, courtesy demands that you pay respect to your Alphas by greeting them,” Anita spoke up, her tone laced with arrogance.
Olivia slowly turned to her, her gaze narrowing. “Courtesy also demands that you, Anita, show respect by addressing me properly–with my title as Luna.” Olivia shot back.
Anita let out a mocking chuckle, shaking her head. “You? Luna?” She scoffed. “Stop deceiving yourself, Olivia. You and I both know you’re nothing to the Alphins. They married you out of obligation. But me? She smirked. “I’m the one they love: She said, a victorious smile spread across her face. pacces
Where I sat. I stared at Olivia and could tell Anita’s words got to her, but she was doing her best to hide it.
“No. Anita, they don’t love you. If they did, they would have fought to marry you. Men fight for the women they love. But you…” Olivia paused and smacked her lips. “You are just their whore.” The dining room fell into a suffocating silence after Olivia’s words. Anita’s face turned red with rage, her victorious smile wiped clean. My brothers and I exchanged glances, and for the first time, I saw hesitation in their eyes. Olivia’s words had hit deep, not just for Anita but for all of US.
Anita clenched her fists, trembling with anger. “You–you little-” she sputtered, but Olivia remained unmoved, staring at her with cold detachment.
I couldn’t deny it–she looked like a Luna. Strong, composed, fearless. Even after what happened. last night, she sat there as if we hadn’t shattered whatever fragile bond we had. My wolf stirred in admiration, but I forced him down. No. She deserved to suffer.
Anita recovered quickly, her lips curling into a smirk. “You’re just bitter, omega. Bitter that you’re nothing but a duty to them. That even after marrying you, they still come to me.” She leaned in, eyes glinting with cruel amusement. “Tell me, how did it feel last night? Watching us?” I expected Olivia to flinch, to show some sign of hurt, but instead, she laughed. A low, mocking sound that sent chills through the room.
“I must say, Anita, you do know your place well. I should thank you. She tilted her head, amusement dancing in her eyes. “You’ve done nothing but prove to me what kind of men I married. And for that, I pity you.”
Anita’s face contorted in anger. “You-”
“Enough,” Lennox’s voice cut through the tension like a blade, anger radiating through him. I could feel his rage, though whether it was at Anita, Olivia, or himself, I couldn’t tell.
But Olivia wasn’t done. She leaned back in her chair, her expression almost bored. “You see, Anita, unlike you, I don’t have to beg for scraps of affection.” Her eyes flicked toward me, then my brothers. “If you were truly loved, you wouldn’t have to remind the world of it. T Anita let out a sharp breath, completely losing her composure. She stood so abruptly that her chair screeched against the floor. “You bitch!” she spat, lifting her hand to strike Olivia- But Olivia caught her wrist midair, her grip firm. The room went still. Anita but Olivia didn’t let go. gasped, struggling
“I suggest you never try that again, Olivia said, her voice like ice. “I’m no longer an omega. I am now your Luna.
Anita ripped her hand free, turning to us. “Are you seriously going to let her talk to me like this?” she demanded, her voice shrill with frustration.
Lennox’s jaw tensed, his green eyes darkening. I saw the exact moment his patience snapped. Without a word, he stood, and before I could even understand what was happening-
