Chapter 160
Silver’s POV
I wasn’t sure what was going on, but Elliot was kissing me, and I was completely lost in the moment. My entire body melted into his and it was like I was being meshed with the missing piece of the puzzle. His lips parted mine and I felt his soft and wet tongue invading my mouth, searching for something but I wasn’t sure what. I thought my heart was going to beat right out of my chest and my knees went completely weak. It was a good thing I was still on the ground and that his arms were wrapped around me, holding me in place. I let a soft moan escape my lips and for a moment, I forgot that we weren’t alone and that I was sitting in the middle of a jail cell. I didn’t care though; I just wanted my husband wrapped around me. I wanted his lips on mine, and I needed to feel his touch. When he pulled apart, we were both breathless and I knew for a fact that I was red in the face.
“I shouldn’t have doubted you,” he whispered against my lips.
Tears burned in my eyes, and I wasn’t sure what to say or do. I looked at Erik who was just as shocked as I was.
“You told him?” I asked him, meeting his eyes.
Erik shook his head, the look of panic clear on his face and I knew at that moment I had said too much.
“Told me what?” Elliot asked, glancing over his shoulder at Erik and then at me.
I kissed him, trying to get his attention.
“Never mind,” I whispered. “How did you know it was me p>
“The little things,” he confessed. “She was different. She wasn’t you. Then, when Erik told Luca that the woman in the jail cell was the real Silver, it confirmed my suspicions. I didn’t need to ask further questions p>
I wrapped my arms around him and buried my face in his chest, breathing in deeply as his scent filled me and cocooned me in a safe and comforting bubble.
Tears spilled out of my eyes.
“Did… did you sleep with her?” I found myself asking, my voice hardly a whisper.
“God, no, Silver,” he said, holding me even tighter. “It would have never gotten that far. Do you know who that woman is p>
I shook my head.
“I was just telling Erik that I don’t remember much of anything,” I murmured, wiping my eyes with the back of my hand. “The only thing I could remember was this man standing above me, telling me that he was going to prove that you didn’t love me. That you would throw me to the wolves the second you got the chance. Then everything went black, and I woke up in the forest with silver cuffs around my wrists p>
Elliot’s face darkened.
“I would never throw you to the wolves,” he said, cupping my face in his hands. “Ever p>
I blinked quickly, staring at him.
“You nearly did,” I said, sounding more bitter than I felt. “I’m in a jail cell p>
“I was confused,” he admitted, looking guilty “When I found you… erm… her was overjoyed and relieved. Then, we found the real you and you smelled like a rogue. I still don’t understand how she has your face. But I do know how she has your scent p>
“My brother,” I whispered.
He tensed.
“You remember him? You’ve seen him p>
I nodded my head once, but I could feel the uncertainty on my face.
“Erik filled in the blanks, But the man I saw standing above me, who said those cruel things, had my eyes. In fact, he looked a lot like me. Erik mentioned that I had a twin brother.” Elliot nodded.
“Yes, and he can change a person’s scent. He changed yours, knowing you wouldn’t know how to change it back p>
My stomach twisted from his words.
“So, he changed mine to smell like a rogue and he changed hers to smell like me p>
“Exactly,” Elliot confirmed.
“Why don’t I remember anything?” I asked, my tone shaky as more tears spilled out of my eyes.
“I’ve already called the pack doctor. He wants us to bring her to the clinic,” Beta Leo said, stepping into the cell.
“The clinic?” I asked, my brows furrowed. “Why not the hospital? Won’t they be able to do more testing at the hospital p>
Leo nodded, but he looked uncomfortable. It was Elliot who answered the question.
“A lot has happened,” he admitted. “The hospital isn’t exactly safe right now. We have it on lockdown. Nobody is to leave, and nobody is to enter Not until we know for certain that all the enemies are gone p>
“There were enemies in the hospital?” I asked, shaking Elliot away from me so I could stand to my feet, Elliot grabbed my arms to help steady me; I still felt weak from whatever drugs they pumped into my body and my legs were hardly able to hold up my weight,
