Chapter 118: Wants Gabriel

Louis' POV

"What?" Lennox snapped, spinning around so fast the bottle slipped from his hand and shattered on the floor.

"She—she woke up screaming," Lolita stammered. "She doesn't recognize anyone. She threw a vase at Nora, and then a glass of water at me. She's frightened. She's crying and shouting that she wants to go home to Alpha Gabriel."

"Shit," Levi muttered, already pushing off the wall and moving past Lolita.

I followed, and Lennox was right beside us, moving so fast I almost didn't recognize him.

When we reached her room, we could hear the chaos even before the door opened—Olivia's voice, shrill and panicked, echoing through the hallway.

"I said leave me alone! Get away from me! I don't know any of you!"

My heart cracked again.

Levi opened the door slowly. Inside, Olivia was curled in a corner of the bed, her chest heaving, hair wild around her face. Nora stood at a distance, looking worried. Pieces of broken glass and porcelain littered the floor.

The moment she saw us, her eyes widened—and not with recognition. With fear.

"Don't come near me!" she cried, her voice hoarse. "Why did you kidnap me! What do you want from me?!"

"Olivia—" Lennox took a step forward, his voice gentle for the first time in hours.

"Don't say my name like you know me!" she screamed, pressing herself further into the headboard. "Just—just let me go!"

I froze, unable to move, my wolf whimpering inside me. Seeing her like this—so afraid of us—was worse than anything I had ever felt in my life.

Lennox stood still, jaw clenched, eyes glimmering with pain. His hands were balled into fists at his sides, as if physically restraining himself from rushing to her.

Levi looked at her like someone had just stabbed him.
