Menu I was convinced Selene would regret leaving me. She’d come crawling back home soon enough. Sol didn’t let it bother me much after I got home.

I was in a foul mood, though. Dad had really laid into me after Selene left the pack house.

I was furious with her. I just waited for tomorrow morning, when she’d return here helpless and defeated. I couldn’t wait to see the look on her face.

That night, I had a dream.

I was kidnapped by some thugs, and then I heard a girl’s voice calling out to me. She rescued me from danger and treated my wounds with medicinal herbs. I kept trying to see her face, and this time, I finally did it wasn’t Ruby, but Selene!

I bolted upright in bed, wide awake.

It wasn’t just a dream – it was a nightmare about my past.

When I was a kid, my father had to protect me constantly since we had enemies everywhere. Being my father’s only heir and future pack leader made me a target – other Alphas wanted me dead.

Once, one of my father’s rivals actually managed to kidnap me.

The trauma was still fresh, which was why it showed up in my dream.

Looking out the window, I realized it was already late morning. “I’ve never slept in this late,” I muttered.

What I saw in my dream couldn’t be real. Ruby was the one who helped me back then. But Selene... that woman had gotten into my head. I’d make her pay when she came back.

I headed straight for the shower.

When I came out, I expected to find my suit laid out on the couch. But there were no clothes waiting for me.

“Selene!” I yelled, ready to ask why she hadn’t set out my clothes yet. I was already running late.

Then it hit me. She wasn’t here.

I grabbed a suit from the closet and got dressed. My eyes caught sight of a card on the nightstand. ‘She didn’t take my credit card,‘ I thought.

I went to the living room and called all the servants together.

“Where’s Selene?” I asked, sitting at the table.

Wren was setting the table. She bowed and said, “Luna left yesterday and hasn’t returned.”

That made my blood boil. I turned to my security team and ordered, “Check all surveillance cameras near the pack house.”

I couldn’t eat after that – my appetite was gone.

An hour later, security reported back: “We found footage of her heading toward the forest area.”

I watched that footage countless times. She looked disoriented, standing in the middle of the road 08:45 11.25%

Menu One day, Beta Finn came to my house. I thought he had news about Selene, but he was there to discuss pack business, which I couldn’t care less about.

Finn gave me a knowing smile. “Kane, do you regret letting Selene go?”

His question caught me off guard, but I answered immediately. “No.”
