119 calming Her Down

Lennox’s POV 1

For once, I wished Gabriel was here with us and not just on the phone. I swear to God, I would have punched him right in the face. But

unfortunately…

“Listen, Gabriel, there is a situation,” Louis said, sounding worried. I believe even Gabriel must have noticed it.

“What is the situation? Listen, man, Olivia is not here. Has she gone missing again?” Gabriel asked, sounding worried.

“It’s not that,” Levi cut in quickly.

“Then what is it?” Gabriel sneered.

From where I stood, I remained silent, while my brothers exchanged glances with me like they needed my approval. But I said nothing. I just looked away.

Louis continued, “Olivia… has some memory loss. In fact, she has false memory. She doesn’t remember us. She doesn’t even know who we are. In fact…” He paused and inhaled deeply. “She thinks you’re her mate and husband. She thinks we kidnapped her.” 2

There was a long, heavy silence on the other end of the call.

I could hear Gabriel breathing. Nothing else. Not a damn sound.

Then came the sharp exhale. “You’re joking,” he said flatly.

“I wish I was,” Louis muttered.

“You’re telling me,” Gabriel said slowly, his voice turning darker with each word, “that Olivia your Olivia–has forgotten everything… and she thinks

I’m her mate?”

“She screamed it at us, actually,” Levi muttered bitterly.

“Over and over,” Louis added. “She doesn’t remember anything, Gabriel. Not us. Not the pack. Nothing. Just you.”

I remained silent, my jaw clenched. My eyes burned, not with sadness but with pure rage. Rage that she had screamed his name and not mine. Rage that the only face her mind had clung to… was his.

Gabriel laughed. A short, disbelieving, annoying laugh. “Well, isn’t that just fantastic. Of all people, her brain decides I’m the one she trusts?” 1

“We hate you,” Levi reminded him bluntly.

“Mutual, Levi,” Gabriel shot back. “I didn’t call you for hugs.”

“We called you,” Louis corrected sharply.

“Whatever,” Gabriel sounded tired now. “This is a mess.”

“No shit,” I muttered under my breath.

Then his tone shifted, sounding serious. “Put her on the phone.”

“What?” Levi and Louis said simultaneously.

“Let me talk to her. If she thinks of me, then maybe I can say something that jogs something useful. Or calm her down. You said she’s terrified of you. Let me try before I come there.”

I looked away, grinding my teeth. Every part of me hated this. Hated giving him access to her. Hated that he might be the only one she’d actually listen

1. to.

But she was terrified of us.

And if he could help her remember…

I sighed heavily. “Fine. But if you say something against us—

IT

“I won’t,” Gabriel said. For once, he didn’t sound smug. “Just… give her the phone.”

“Fine!” I gave my brothers a nod.

We walked back to the room with the phone gripped in my hand like it was the blade of the very pain tearing through my chest. I could hear Olivia’s soft, panicked whispers even before I opened the door. She was pacing. Frightened. Lost.

“She’s not going to want to talk to us,” Levi murmured beside me.

I nodded once. “She won’t have to.”

We entered her room, and her eyes snapped to mine. Wide. Guarded. She took a step back.

“Gabriel’s on the phone,” I said quietly, my voice tighter than I intended.

Her eyes widened. “Gabriel?” she gasped, nearly dropping the glass of water in her hand. “My Gabriel?”

I couldn’t even look at her.

“Yes,” I muttered, putting the phone on speaker and placing it on the table.

She ran to it like her life depended on it. Her hands were shaking as she clutched the edge of the table, tears streaming down her face.

“Gabriel?” her voice cracked. “My love? It’s you, right? It’s really you?”

My wolf growled deep inside me, writhing in agony. She called him ‘my love‘. It felt like a knife slowly turning in my chest.
