Chapter 123: Old Memories

Olivia's POV

"Olivia, dear… can you hear me? It's me, your mother." I heard my mom's panicked voice through the mind link.

"Are you okay? What's going on? Do you remember me? It's your mother!"

I frowned, realizing I had forgotten to tell her about my plan.

"Mother, calm down… I'm fine," I said softly.

There was a beat of silence, then a soft, shaky sigh of relief from her end.

"You're sure? Alpha Levi just contacted me through the mind link. He said you're suffering from memory loss and false memories."

"That's what I made them believe, Mother…" I murmured, lowering my voice as I moved toward the window. "But I'm fine. Completely fine."

Her confusion pulsed through the link. "What? Olivia… what are you talking about?"

I exhaled slowly, watching the wind play with the leaves outside. "I'm pretending. Faking the memory loss. It's part of the plan. I want them to let me go."

"Olivia…" her voice dropped, almost like a whisper. "You're lying to your mates? Your Alphas?"

"Yes," I said, firm and cold. "Because it's the only way they'll let me go. If they think I don't remember them—don't love them—they'll loosen their grip. And when they do, I'll finally be free."

Her silence stretched for a moment too long. Then she said carefully, "And what if they find out? What if they realize you're faking it?"

"They won't," I said sharply. "They're too focused on trying to fix me. Too wrapped up in their guilt and desperation to notice what's right in front of them."
