**WARNING** Please note that the following chapter is a bit macabre, for sensitive people.Especially if you have experienced a loss like Olivia's, I don't want to hurt anyone's sensibilities. Remember, this is fiction and nothing more....*****Olivia cautiously approached the log and looked around.Suddenly, the sixth sense that had never failed her was activated, but it was too late.A red substance coming out of the trunk caught her attention.She reached out in fear and touched it with her fingertips, trying to see what it was.When she looked back at the tree, it was not just a small trickle of blood, but it was coming from all sides of the wood, which was beginning to rot.She wanted to walk away, horrified by this macabre vision, but something or someone pushed her from behind and she fell straight down, slamming into the trunk.She shielded her face, but the blow never came.Where was she?She wondered, opening her eyes and realizing that she was no longer in the same forest,
Olivia opened her eyes, tears of despair still streaming from them.Feeling bound and in a dark place, she thought she was still in that horrible nightmare.She could no longer tell reality from fantasy.She tried to free her hands and feet, but she was tied to a chair and could not move.Worst of all was the despair of not feeling Lucian or Lugh.When she tried to contact him through a link to let them know of her presence, she got a terrible headache.- If you keep doing that, you'll only damage your mind more - a voice came from around a corner in the darkness and Olivia tensed, searching in fear for the source of his captor.Some old lamps flickered on and then she saw her.A beautiful woman watching her.But as dazzling as she was, her predatory eyes did not fool Olivia, this woman was not human and she was not someone who came to help her, she was the enemy.- What do you want from Lucian?- Olivia asked her, looking her straight in the face, knowing full well that her stupidity
Nagy hunted them down one by one, like the top predator she was.She didn't have to try very hard because she surprised almost all of them, only one of them was missing and she knew there was a rat hiding from her control.This man was too cunning and slippery from the beginning, he had never trusted her, but all his caution was in vain, he was still just an ant in her eyes.She left the caves to see if he was in the surrounding forest.Nagy was surprised not to feel the scent of his blood and she was about to return to the human to protect her, because a bad feeling began to form in her heart.She had not taken a step back when all the hairs on her body stood up, her fangs coming out at her extreme fear and the deadly aura approaching her with the intention of ending her life.The Ancient One, the Ancient One, had discovered her and had passed her protection, it was coming for her head and it was too late to flee.Indeed, Lugh saw the infamous being before him.The moment Nagy was as
Olivia felt the brightness of the outside and the wild smell of the earth and the trees, but she could not stand it anymore.Her whole body had reached its limit, she regretted not being able to say goodbye to her love, but this would be the end.Just before her head hit the ground, strong arms lifted her up.Lucian, it was Lucian who held her in his hands and carried her out of those dark caves that reeked of pure evil.- Resist my love, resist, you will soon be well, don't give up love, don't give up - he begged her with a trembling voice, holding her close to his body as he sat on the green forest floor.Without wasting a second opened a deep wound in his neck so that she could drink directly from his life blood.- Drink Olivia, drink it all and heal, I beg you, please, live for both of us, don't give up, my love, don't give up - he begged her in a panic like he had never felt in his lifeIn his mind Lugh was also comforting his mate, urging her to drink all she needed, no matter i
Suddenly, in the midst of so much death and destruction, a wolf's howl was heard.It was not a howl of threat or agony, it was a howl of pure joy.Every member of the pack responded, seeming more animal than human, all emotions on the move.As Lugh himself shared his pain with them, they felt an unprecedented euphoria and joy.Lucian took his mate in his arms.Olivia, his Olivia, was alive, her heart beating and blood coursing through her veins, the bond restored, she had returned to them.- I'm okay, love, I'm okay - Olivia brought her hand up to wipe Lucian's face, running her hand over the wound on his neck that had already closed, it caused her so much pain, all the feelings of desperation coming from her mate.Lucian's whole huge body shook.- It's our fault, it's all our fault, for not taking good care of you, for not protecting youHe answered her, hugged her, kissed her, still with endless fear in his heart.The image of her dying in his arms, he would never forget it, he coul
After this serious and frightening incident, life in the pack began to return to normal, except for the destruction of the forest.Much of it had been drained to give Keeva enough power to repair Olivia's injured body, save the cubs and her own life.But Lucian, what he had most to spare was money, He hired a large team to replant the whole forest, fertilize the soil and little by little, with time and everyone's efforts, they would restore nature to this part of their land.Ophelia clung to Olivia as soon as she saw her again, despite all the protection around her, she could also feel her father's pain for Olivia.She cried inconsolably in her arms and Olivia's heart achedShe comforted her by telling her that she would never leave again, that she would always be with them and she looked at Lucian as well.There was the matter of telling Ophelia that she was Lucian's mate, and Olivia was afraid of her rejection, that she would think she was trying to take her mother's place, and now
"Keeva, I'm a little afraid, do you think Lugh will like this?" asked Olivia, not quite clear on all the madness that had been proposed to her.The three babies would be shaped like wolves in their wombs, according to Keeva, because they had inherited the lineage of the Ancients, due to Lucian's great power and her own, it had been possible to conceive this miracle in the womb of the fragile human Olivia.Even the female baby, because Keeva told her they were two werewolves and a witch, would have the wolf form she had created with her witch powers to be just like her brothers and be born safely.That's what Olivia would do now, she would become a wolf, because who better to give birth to little wolves than a female wolf.To Olivia all this seemed crazy, but her life had become a labyrinth full of surprises and mysteries, where the impossible became real.She applied the philosophy of her existence.She would face whatever the world threw at her, and if it was for the good of her chil
When Luca arrived at Lucian's mansion, he did not find the Ancient.He sighed inwardly at his good fortune, and even more so when he saw Ophelia playing in the garden, alone.Not that she was in any real danger, she was very well protected by all of Lucian's spells, and Luca could sense that Malla was nearby, surely she had only wandered away for a moment, so this was their chance.He approached the beautiful Omega painting in a notebook and played friendly.Ophelia didn't particularly dislike the Alpha of the pack, but as an Omega finally, it made her a little nervous to have him so close.- Ophelia, I just want to talk to your father, to know how Olivia is, she was injured and I'm worried about her health - Luca pretended to be the innocent girl.- Mama Olivia is fine, she is healthy and the three puppies are also healthy - she told him, revealing her father's secrets without knowing- They are not in the villa, they went out to run in the forest.The human is pregnant with three pu
