Fated To Not Just One But Three novel Chapter 618

Chapter 618: Accept So Easily

Olivia’s POV

Silence... a tense, uncomfortable silence hung in the air as my words settled in the air... I swallowed hard and looked away, not able to look at any one of them in the face. My heart was hurting... My heart was in pain, but I knew this was the best for the four of us... We needed to find ourselves again... and we can’t do that if we continue staying in this relationship.

Lennox was the first to speak.

"You’ve thought this through?" he asked.

His voice was calm. Too calm. Relaxed. But I knew Lennox. He was good at hiding what he felt.

I bit my lips, my eyes away from them as I nodded, not able to find my voice.. A part of me wanted them to refuse ... I wanted them to tell me we could fix this... we could try, but I was shocked when Lennox responded.

"Okay... if that is what you want... then let’s do it."

My heart shattered, and tears began forming in my eyes. This wasn’t what I expected from him... This wasn’t the Lennox I knew... The Lennox I knew... the Lennox I grew up knowing would never agree to this... he would say let’s talk this out.. Let’s make this work.

I finally looked at Lennox, my eyes wide, my chest tight like I couldn’t breathe.

That wasn’t what I wanted.

That wasn’t what I hoped for.

I wanted him to fight me.

To argue.

To tell me we could fix this.

To tell me he still wanted us badly enough to hold on.

My vision blurred as tears filled my eyes.

"That’s it?" I whispered. "You’re just going to say okay?"

Lennox’s jaw tightened.

"You asked for space," he said softly. "I’m giving it to you."

"But you don’t even care?" I cried. "You don’t even want to try?"

His eyes flickered then. Pain slipped through before he hid it again.

"I care," he said. "That’s why I’m not stopping you."

That made it worse.

Louis took a step forward. "Olivia, please—"

I shook my head. "No. Don’t."

My heart felt like it was breaking into pieces.

I had just told them I needed distance, but I never meant for it to be so easy for them to let me go.

Levi was silent, his face pale, his hands clenched like he was holding himself together.

I wiped my tears angrily.

"So this is it," I whispered. "After everything... we’re just letting it end?"

Lennox sighed.. "I think it’s for the best.... We are not ending things; we are just giving each other space to find ourselves again."

I stared at Lennox.

Not just at his face...

But at everything behind it.

The calmness in his eyes.

The way his jaw was set.

The way he didn’t look like a man who was about to lose the woman he loved.

And that terrified me.

Because for the first time since he came back, I felt something cold and empty inside my chest.

We were no longer mates.

There was no bond pulling at me.

No warmth.

No quiet whisper of his emotions brushing against mine.

I couldn’t feel him anymore.

And without that bond, I had no way of knowing what he felt.

Did he still love me?

Or was he already letting go?

The thought made my heart ache.

Is Lennox falling out of love with me... or did he already?

Louis’s voice broke through the silence.

"How long?" he asked softly. "How long is this break going to be?"

The pain in his voice cut straight through me.

I swallowed hard.

Regret hit me like a wave.

I wished I had never said any of this.

I wished I had just kept quiet and stayed broken together with them.

But it was too late.

"Half a year," I said softly. "Six months."

All three of them looked at me.

"After that," I continued, forcing the words out, "we’ll see if we still want this... if we can still be together... or if we should go our separate ways for good."

The words tasted like poison in my mouth.

Lennox nodded slowly.

"Okay," he said.

Just one word.

But it felt like a door closing.

Levi didn’t say anything.

He just stared at the floor, his fists clenched so tight his knuckles were white.

I couldn’t stand it anymore.

I couldn’t stand the quiet.

I couldn’t stand the way everything was breaking so calmly.

I turned away.

"I need to go," I whispered.

And before any of them could stop me, I walked out.

I didn’t stop walking until I reached my room.

The door closed behind me with a soft click, but the sound felt loud in my chest. I leaned against it, my hands shaking, my heart racing like I had just run from something I couldn’t escape.

What did I just do?

I slid down the door and sat on the floor, hugging my knees to my chest. My mind was spinning.

I asked for space... but I didn’t expect them to let me go so easily.

Especially Lennox.

That calm look in his eyes kept replaying in my head.

"You remember Damien and me," she said gently. "We were broken. Angry. We couldn’t breathe around each other anymore. We walked away."

She smiled faintly.

"And when we came back, we finally understood each other. We healed. We grew."

She took my hand.

"Sometimes distance doesn’t mean the end," she said. "Sometimes it means a new beginning."

Her words wrapped around my heart like a small, fragile hope.

"Maybe this break," she continued, "is what you four need to remember who you are... and what you really want."

I held onto her hand, my eyes filling with tears again.

"I just don’t want to lose them," I whispered. "They are my sons, they are my life."

Sophia squeezed my fingers.

"You won’t," she said softly. "Use this time to heal and return back to them."

I swallowed hard, and despite how hard it felt, I knew Sofia was right... this was the best decision.

"Thank you," I said while inhaling deeply.

Sofia smiled warmly. "It’s my duty as your big sister, remember." She teased, and I smiled.

Sophia tilted her head, studying me carefully.

"So..." she said gently, "where are you going to stay now?"

I let out a slow breath. "I’m going back home."

Her brows knit together. "Back there?"

I nodded. "I need somewhere that feels like mine again. Somewhere that isn’t full of memories of... all of them."

She understood right away.

"And the boys?" she asked softly.

My heart squeezed at their name. "I’ll still see them every day," I said quickly. "I can teleport. Distance won’t change that."

Sophia smiled a little. "Good."

Then her voice turned more careful. "Have you told them yet?"

The question hit me.

My fingers curled in my lap. "No," I whispered. "I don’t even know how."

How do you tell three little boys that their family is breaking apart?

"I don’t want to hurt them," I said quietly. "They just got Lennox back. They were crying in his arms like they’d found their whole world again. How do I look at them and say I’m leaving?"

Sophia reached out and pulled me into a soft hug.

"You don’t have to tell them everything right now," she said gently. "They’re too young to understand adult pain."

I rested my forehead against her shoulder.

"But I can’t just disappear," I whispered.

"You won’t," she replied. "You’ll still be there. Every day. That’s what they’ll feel."

I nodded slowly, even though my chest still ached.

"I’ll talk to them tomorrow," I said. "I’ll tell them Mommy just needs some time. That I still love them. That I’m not going anywhere."

Sophia smiled. "That’s enough for now."

I closed my eyes for a moment, letting the quiet settle around me.

Somewhere inside me, my wolf shifted—still hurting, still confused... but no longer screaming.

Maybe this wasn’t the end.

Maybe it was just the beginning of something different.
