Elliot's POV "Tellwhat the hell is going on with her!!" I demanded.
Silver was shaking and whimpering on the bed; sweat was beading on her forehead and her lips were trembling.
It was obvious tothat she was in severe pain, but she also looked to be having a seriously bad dream. I wanted to wrap her in my arms and hold her close to me, but both the doctor and Charolette advisednot to touch her.
I was furious not being able to comfort her; all I wanted was to scoop her into my arms so she would know that I was right there, and I wasn't going anywhere.
"I already told you that it was going to be uncomfortable and painful for her. You just have to trustand trust the process," my sister said, putting a hand on my shoulder. "It's going ot be okay, Elliot. She's going to be just fine. Her memories are going to be restored." I looked down at her, feeling a wave of dread coursing through me. I hated seeing her like this and I wanted so desperately to do something... anything.
"S...Scott..." she whimpered as tears ran down her cheeks.
My brows furrowed together as I stared down at my wife who just spoke another man's name.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI looked up at Charlotte who looked equally confused.
""Who is Scott?" I asked as if they had the answers.
"I'm not sure," Charlotte said. "I've never heard that nbefore." "Could it be her brother?" Dr. Scott asked.
I looked at Charlotte and she shrugged.
"It's a possibility," she agreed.
"No..." Silver murmured. "Memories... I can't lose them... not again..." I looked at Charlotte again and saw the confusion on her face.
"What does she mean, Char?" I asked.
"I...I don't know," she said, her eyes never leaving Silver's face. "She could be remembering when they took her memories." "Elliot..." Silver whispered; her tone raspy. "Help me..." "Baby, I'm right here," I said, crouching down to her side. "I'm right here. Cback to me, Love. I'm right here waiting for you. Please, just cback to me." Her body seemed to have relaxed sbefore she released a breath.
"Open your eyes, Silver," I pleaded. "Please..." My voice was nothing more than a whisper.
She gasped and her eyes flew open! Silver quickly sat up, gasping for breath. I patted her back, trying to get her to take steady deep breaths. "Breathe, Silver," I whispered against her cheek. "Just breathe." Her breathing finally settled, and she swallowed several times before blinking and getting a bearing on her surroundings. She looked around e the room, looking at each and every person that was staring back-at her. Everyone was watching her warily, none of us saying a word until she spoke first.
"It felt like I was still there," she finally whispered. "Like I never left..." "You remember?" I asked her.
She nodded as tears filled her eyes.
"Yes," she whispered. "I remember everything... I thought I would lose my memories at the end. But I woke up before anything happened." "So, what do you remember?" Charlotte pressed.
"Give her a minute to breathe," I snapped, glaring at my sister.
"No, it's okay," Silver said, putting a hand on my arm. "This is information you need to know. I'm just not sur where to start." "You don't need to think about it right now," told her, wrapping my arms around her and pulling her close to my chest. "I want to get you hwhere I know you are safe. My anxiety has been going crazy for hours." She nodded.
"I would like to shower and get changed," she admitted, staring down at her clothes.

"Erik, can you get the car ready?" I asked Erik who was standing at the doorway.
"Yes, Alpha," he answered before leaving the room.
"I'll prescribe pain medication. It'll help with your headache," Dr. Scott said to Silver who nodded her thanks to him.
He left moments later.
I helped Silver out of the bed and onto her feet; she was a bit unstable on her feet at first, but she clung tolike I was her lifeline. I would gladly be her lifeline. "I'll call you later," Charlotte said before she too left.
Most of the car ride was quiet as we made our way back to the palace. Silver rested her head on my shoulder for most of the drive and I kept my arms wrapped around her. Tears were spilling down her cheeks
and I knew it was because the memories she had were way too much for her to comprehend. I hated that she was suffering so much due to af this. I wanted so desperately to just take away the pain. When we reached the palace, I thanked Erik.
"I'll be out here if you need me, Alpha," he said, giving Silver a short wave.
