Chapter 134: Levi and Wanda’s Relationship
Meredith.
For almost a whole minute, Wanda couldn’t say a word.
I felt her shame and sympathised with her.
But this finally had me understanding that Draven and Dennis were the same. There was no difference between the two brothers.
They both had sharp tongues that could slice their enemies without mercy.
This serves Wanda right. The woman had no respect for herself and had to be constantly ridiculed before her brain could return.
"I think you’re thinking too much," Wanda said, wrapping her arms around herself. "Draven is my best friend."
There was a little edge in her tone at the emphasis she laid. She had just denied Draven, the same man whom she had confidently proclaimed on our wedding day, belonged to her.
I laughed inwardly, watching the whole thing unfold.
This is one of the times I wish I had my phone on me, so I could record this confession as a keepsake. I guessed that Wanda would someday proclaim Draven to be her man.
And I needed this evidence to shut her up.
Ultimately, this highlights a crucial point. Since Wanda can not publicly admit before others that she romantically loved Draven, it just means she was doing something wrong.
She was guilty.
"I really do hope I’m thinking too much," Dennis said, finally taking his gaze off her.
Awkwardness hung in the air like a rope. No one said anything immediately after Dennis’s last words.
Fortunately, Levi was just as uncomfortable as me. And decided to break the ice.
"Luna Meredith, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you," Levi said to me, and stuck out his hand the Duskmoor way.
I didn’t know what to do with it, more like I wasn’t sure if I should respond in the same manner or leave his hand hanging.
Disrespecting someone who hasn’t stepped on my foot wasn’t a part of my policy, so I took his hand with just the tip of my fingers.
We shook hands lightly for just two seconds before I retracted my hand.
With Dennis by my side, I believed he would stop me if I were about to make a mistake.
"The pleasure is mine," I responded to Levi with a neutral look on my face. I could still feel the calluses on his palm.
It was big and rough, which had me thinking he wielded a sword frequently or held weapons often.
But Draven’s hands weren’t rough like Levi’s, and I had enjoyed his touches and caresses when we had sex.
Wait! What am I thinking?
As I pulled out of my thoughts, I saw Wanda gnash her teeth out of the corner of my eye, and immediately turned to Dennis.
He looked at me, and then at Levi, who also shared a glance with him. I think one of them said something about me while I was deep in thought.
I didn’t catch on, unfortunately, but I did get to pay attention as Dennis continued the introduction.
"Levi is Wanda’s older brother. We practically grew up together at some point in our lives. And currently, he’s one of our race’s finest warriors ever produced."
Now, I know why Levi’s hands are rough and why he looks so intimidating. His body was built for war indeed.
I guess Wanda was very proud to have an older brother like him.
As Dennis and I walked back into the house, he informed me that Levi wasn’t actually Wanda’s blood brother, but her half-brother.
I blinked, almost stopping in my steps. "Levi’s mother died, and his father remarried?"
I tried the first theory of how those two became siblings, but Dennis simply shook his head.
"Wrong."
I narrowed my eyes. "Levi’s father abandoned Levi’s mother and got married to Wanda’s mother?"
My second theory earned me a shush from Dennis. He touched my shoulder to get my attention before putting a finger to his lips.
"You are close to the right theory, but we have to stop here now. Others can hear our conversation. But most importantly, Draven will be mad at us for discussing other people’s affairs."
That didn’t sit well with me.
"Does it mean you would never tell me about their family dynamics?" I inquired, hoping I was just thinking too far.
He smiled, withdrawing his finger from his lips and his hand from my shoulder.
"We will talk about it some other time," he said, and diverted the topic towards another path. "Levi is married to Alpha Solas’ daughter. And they have a son together."
Interesting.
"He didn’t attend um... our wedding," I said, skipping Draven’s name.
Dennis replied, "He was out on a mission. But now, I think he is back. Not finally, though."

~**Third Person**~
Wanda hooked her arm around Levi’s broad, strong arm and led him into the house.
"How was your trip? Did you experience a lot of security protocols?" Wanda asked, occasionally glancing at her brother.
Their gazes met a few times, a smile lingering at the corner of their lips.
"It was one long heck of a journey. The security at the border was right and frustrating. My wolf felt like we were trapped in a cage for hours and wanted to just run out. But good thing’s that I’ve been in Duskmoor a few times," Levi replied.
Wanda nodded as they walked through the hallway on the ground floor.
Then out of the blue, she said, "You know I hate that woman, Meredith, right?"
"It’s pretty obvious. And I’m quite sure everyone knows about it already, unless they are blind. Which means, you’re wrong."
Wanda rolled her eyes, taking her hand away.
"This is not the time to berate me. I only wanted to say, don’t be overly sweet to her. She is my enemy," she whispered in a voice that only they would hear.
"How was I overly sweet to her?" Levi furrowed his brows while trying to understand if his younger sister saw something else apart from the scene that had played out a minute ago.
As far as he was concerned, he was only polite to Meredith.
Wanda waved the question off and continued on her setting score spree.
"You of all people know how much I love Draven. Yet, that woman sneaked into his life, took him away from me. And she’s been cocky from the first day we met. Tell me, how can I tolerate her?"
Just then, they approached the guestroom Levi would be occupying during his short stay in Duskmoor.
