Chapter 82: Full Moon Soon
Lennox's POV
I felt terrible.
For the past two hours since I came back from the woods, I couldn't stop thinking about what happened there. The raw pain I saw in Olivia's eyes, the anger—it told me how my words must have hurt her so dearly.
I felt horrible and had the thought of going to her, but if I did, then what am I going to say? Apologize? Tell her I won't keep it a secret? Tell her I will let go of the past and accept our bond?
All that was not possible, So what was the point in going to her? Maybe she was right. Maybe this… whatever it is between us… needs to end. She never truly wanted me. It was never me. So I should just leave it that

Six… one… seven… eight…
The soft click echoed in the silence as the safe unlocked.
I hesitated for a moment, staring at the small door, then slowly opened it. My hand reached inside and pulled it out.
I just stood there, staring at it as the weight of memories came crashing into me. My throat tightened. Tears pricked at the corners of my eyes, but I didn't blink them away.
It's been four years.
