stood there frozen.

My entire body felt as if it had been turned to stone, as if the ground beneath my feet had suddenly hardened and wallowed every ounce of strength in my bones.

So all this while…

All the accusations.

All the anger.

All the hatred I had thrown at her.

It was all built on a lie.

Not a lie she told… but one I had created inside my head.

I slowly ran a hand through my hair, my fingers trembling.

She hadn’t left me.

She hadn’t abandoned me.

She hadn’t walked away from our children.

She simply… didn’t remember.

The thought made my chest tighten painfully.

Reven stood a few feet away from me, her body rigid with anger. Her eyes burned into mine with a hatred so raw it felt like knives digging into my skin.

And for the first time since I had known her, I realized something terrifying.

She was looking at me like I was a stranger.

No… worse than a stranger.

Like I was the enemy.

I swallowed hard, forcing the lump in my throat down.

“I’m sorry,” I finally said, my voice hoarse.

The words felt too small for the weight pressing on my chest.

Her eyes narrowed immediately.

“Sorry?” she repeated coldly,

I nodded quickly, stepping forward before she could walk away.

“I didn’t know,” I said desperately. “Reven, I swear I didn’t know you went through all that. If I had known“.

“Stop.”

Her voice cut through mine like a blade.

My mouth snapped shut instantly.

She took a step closer, her entire body shaking with rage.

“Get the fuck out of my house.”

The words hit me harder than any punch.

“I don’t want to see you,” she continued, her voice rising. “I don’t want to hear anything about you. Just leave.”

My heart clenched painfully.

“Reven-”

“I hate you!” she shouted suddenly.

The words echoed through the living room like thunder.

My breath caught.

‘I hate you for what you tried to do to my friend!” she continued angrily.

I shook my head quickly, panic rising inside me.

‘I’m sorry,” I said again. “I didn’t know. I wasn’t thinking straight.”

Her laugh was bitter.

‘What if I didn’t come back here today?” she demanded.

I froze.

“What if I hadn’t walked through that door?” she continued, her voice shaking now. “You would have taken her to the dungeon.”

Her words made guilt crash into me like a wave.

“You would have locked her up,” she said.

Her eyes filled with fury again.

“Someone who helped me when I needed help.”

The shame inside me twisted painfully.

“I didn’t know what I was thinking,” I admitted quietly. “Reven, please… just forgive me.”

Her expression hardened immediately.

“No.”

The single word felt like a death sentence.

‘You should go,” she said firmly.

My chest tightened.

‘I don’t want anything to do with you.”

Every word was another stab to my heart.

‘All I want,” she continued, “is to get my memories back.”

Her voice softened slightly, but the anger was still there.

‘I want to know how to live my life,” she said. “I want to know the people who were there for me in the past.”

My throat tightened.

Trust me,” I said quietly.

She frowned.

I was there in your past.”

She stared at me.

‘You’re my mate.”

For a moment, silence filled the room.

Then she slowly shook her head.

I’m not sure about that.”

The words hit me harder than anything she had said before.

“You should just go,” she continued.

Her voice was calmer now, but it felt even colder.

“Until I get my memories back.”

She crossed her arms.

“Until I know if what you’re saying is true.”

Frustration and helplessness twisted inside me.

I let out a deep sigh.

“I won’t stop,” I said quietly.

Her brows furrowed slightly.

“I won’t stop showing you how sorry I am,” I continued.

My voice grew firmer.

“And I’ll wait for you to get your memories back.”

I met her eyes.

“No matter how long it takes.”

She didn’t respond.

She simply turned and walked out of the room.

Two guards who had been standing outside immediately followed behind her.

The moment she disappeared from sight, the silence in the house became suffocating.

For several seconds, I couldn’t move.

Then I slowly turned and walked outside.

My driver immediately opened the car door for me.

I slid into the back seat heavily.

“Take me home,” I muttered tiredly.

The driver nodded.

“Yes, Alpha.”

The car engine started, and we began driving away from the house.

I leaned back against the seat and closed my eyes.

Reven’s voice echoed inside my head.

Now everything makes sense.

My jaw tightened.

“I was so stupid,” I whispered under my breath.

All this time I had believed she abandoned us

Believed she chose another life.

Believed she didn’t want me… or the kids.

But the truth was worse.

She had simply lost everything.

Her memories.

Her past.

Her life.

And instead of helping her…

I had hurt her.

Now she hated me.

I let out a frustrated growl.

“How the hell am I supposed to win her back now?”

The thought burned inside my chest.

Suddenly anger burst out of me.

“FUCK!”

The word exploded from my mouth loudly.

The driver jumped slightly in the front seat.

“Alpha… are you okay?” he asked nervously.

My eyes snapped open.

“Face your job,” I snapped.

He immediately nodded.

“Yes, Alpha.”

The rest of the ride passed in silence.

By the time we arrived at the packhouse, exhaustion weighed heavily on my shoulders.

I stepped out of the car and walked straight inside.

Guards bowed as I passed them, but I barely noticed.

My mind was still stuck on Reven.

Her angry eyes.

Her cold voice.

I hate you.

The words echoed again.

I pushed open the door to my study and walked in.

The moment the door shut behind me, the quiet room felt suffocating.

I dropped into the chair behind my desk heavily.

My hands clenched into fists.

“Every time things start to go right…” I muttered bitterly.

My jaw tightened.

“I always manage to fuck it up.”

Before I could stop myself, my fist slammed hard against the wooden table.

The loud bang echoed through the room.

Pain shot through my knuckles, but I barely felt it.

Just then-

The door suddenly opened.

I looked up.

Matthew walked in.

His brows immediately furrowed when he saw my face.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

He stepped closer, studying me carefully.

“You don’t look fine.”

I ran a hand through my hair tiredly.

“I fucked everything up.”

Matthew frowned deeper.

“What happened?”

I leaned back in the chair, staring at the ceiling.

“I was stupid,” I muttered,

Matthew crossed his arms.

“Start talking, Ethan”

I sighed heavily.

“I thought Reven left me,” I said quietly.

His expression shifted slightly.

“But she didn’t,” I continued.

Matthew frowned.

“What do you mean?”

I sat forward slowly.

“I did some research about her.”

He listened silently.

“I found out she was admitted to a hospital,” I explained.

“So I went there.”

Matthew nodded slightly.

They gave me her file,” I continued.

‘But the strange thing was… it didn’t say anything was wrong with her.”

Matthew’s brows furrowed.

‘But her friend’s address and number were in the file,” I added.

‘So I went to the house.”

Matthew leaned against the desk.

What happened there?”

I sighed.

‘I asked her some questions.”

My jaw tightened.

‘She didn’t want to answer.”

Matthew stayed quiet.

So I lost my temper,” I admitted.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

“I asked the guards to take her back to the pack house.”

Matthew’s expression darkened.

“And put her in the dungeon”

For a moment, silence filled the room

Then Matthew suddenly straightened.

“Why the hell would you do that?”

I rubbed my face tiredly.

“I didn’t know she would come back,” I muttered.

Matthew shook his head in disbelief.

“Wait,” he said. “Who even let her leave the pack house in the first place?”

I frowned slightly.

“I don’t know.”

Matthew sighed.

“So what happened next?”

I hesitated.

Then I said quietly,

“She told me she doesn’t know me.”

Matthew froze.

“What?”

I looked at him.

*She lost her memory.”

Matthew’s eyes widened slightly.

‘So that explains it,” he murmured.

He rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

“That’s why she doesn’t recognize anyone.”

I nodded slowly.

I thought about that too.”

Matthew sighed.

“And what did she say about you?”

My chest tightened again,

“She told me she doesn’t want me close to her.”

Matthew winced slightly,

“She just wants her memories back,” I continued.

“And she wants to figure out how to live her life”

Matthew stayed silent for a moment.

Then he sighed.

“Ethan… calm down.”

I looked at him.

“I’m sure she’s just angry because of what you tried to do to her friend.”

My jaw tightened.

“She’ll come around.”

I shook my head slowly.

“I don’t know.”

Matthew stepped closer.

“Just give her time,” he said.

“And don’t force anything.”

He pointed at me slightly.

“Especially don’t talk about her past.”

I frowned.

“Let her memories return naturally.”

I leaned back in the chair again.

“I think I’ve lost her forever,” I whispered.

Matthew didn’t respond.

My chest tightened painfully.

“I’ve lost her so many times already,” I continued quietly.

My voice dropped.

“And I can’t afford to lose her again.”

I clenched my fists.

“I’ll do anything to show her how sorry I am.”

Just then, the door to my study opened without a knock, and I was shocked by who was standing there.

It was Reven.

And she was holding a knife in her hand.
