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?"
