Menu Kane lost control when Selene said she was with someone else. The thought of her with another man drove him crazy.
Without warning, he crushed his lips against hers in a fierce kiss that sent electricity through her whole body.
His kiss was rough, fueled by anger.
But the moment their lips met, he felt himself calming down.
It hit him then this was what heâd been missing. This kiss, this closeness, this woman.
He wanted to pull her closer, wrap his arms around her waist and deepen the kiss.
Selene, though initially shocked, quickly snapped back to reality and grew furious.
She shoved him hard, breaking the kiss.
Looking at him with disgust, she slapped him across the face.
The slap stunned Kane and he stepped back. No one had ever dared slap him except his parents â and they only had that right because they gave him life.
His face darkened as he turned back to her.
âYou dare slap me?â
âHow dare you kiss me?â she fired back.
Kane had no answer. Why did he kiss her? Was it jealous rage at hearing she was with someone else? Or was it to remind her she was still his?
âYou said you were with Axel,â he said through clenched teeth.
âYes, yes, YES! Iâll say it a hundred more times â Iâm with him. Whatâs it to you?â Selene snapped, losing patience.

Her irritation flared. She pointed to the door. âI donât want to hear it. Just leave.â
A knock interrupted them. She quickly opened the door.
âAxel!â she exclaimed.
The moment Axel walked in, Kaneâs attention zeroed in on him, rage burning hot.
âHow dare he come to her room at this hour?â Kane thought.
Axel looked between Selene and Kane before asking, âWhatâs he doing here, Sel?â
Kaneâs eyebrows shot up in outrage. The casual nickname set his blood boiling. After what Selene had said about their relationship, he wanted to tear this man apart.

Get 5 = Menu âI was just telling him to leave,â Selene mumbled to Axel, looking down. She felt overwhelmed, the kiss still affecting her more than she wanted to admit.
Axel turned to Kane. âWhat are you doing in a young womanâs room, Alpha Kane?â
Kane scoffed. âI could ask you the same thing, Beta Axel.â
âI already told you,â Selene cut in sharply. âIâm with someone else now. Just go.â
âSelene!â Kaneâs shout made her flinch. Axel immediately stepped in front of her protectively.
âThatâs no way to speak to her,â Axel said firmly. âSheâs not your wife anymore. Sheâs free to date whoever she wants.â
Kane stepped toward him menacingly. âYouâve got some nerve. Donât forget who youâre talking to.â
His eyes shifted to Selene standing behind Axel.
Axel gave a short laugh and shook his head. âNo one could forget who you are, Alpha Kane. Youâre the most powerful, famous Alpha â in pack business and wars. But right now, youâre just a husband who needs to back off. She wants nothing to do with you anymore.â
Kane kept his eyes locked on Selene, barely hearing Axelâs words.
âI donât want to be harsh, but arenât you committed to someone? Coming to another womanâs room while you have a girlfriend â
that doesnât look good.â
Kaneâs anger was reaching dangerous levels. He knew if he stayed much longer, he might attack Axel â which would break pack laws. He forced himself to leave before he lost control.
Selene kept her eyes on the floor during the whole exchange.
When Kane finally left, she let out a breath of relief.
âThank you, Axel. You really helped me out.â
Axel just stared at her silently.
She walked to her bed and took a sip of water from the glass on her nightstand.
As she drank, Axel approached her with a serious expression. âDo you still have feelings for Kane?â
