Chapter 44 Unbroken

"Why?" She arched her brow, her stance turning a little bit defensive.

"Because you ran from the fortress, were you trying to run away from your duties?" One of the soldiers curtly answered, shooting her a menacing glare.

Olivia was speechless. "No… No, that's not true." She refuted.

Klaus smirked slightly before walking beside her. " Then why did you escape my darling?"

Olivia looked at him with disgust, a bitter taste lingered in her mouth as she heard him call her endearing name. " I left because…. Because…" Her memories dissolved like smoke, slipping from her grasp before she could hold onto them.

Her brows knitted in worry. She knew she left for a reason, but why couldn't she remember? She remembered that she had something important to do, but why couldn't she remember what.

Klaus' gaze fixated on her, intense and unreadable as if he was trying to peel off all her layers of facade from her face. Then, he rolled his eyes in amusement.
