Kane''s gaze remained locked on the woman before him. She didn''t hesitate for a second-her blue eyes burned with a fury that could shake anyone. Anyone but him.
The sharp sting of her ws digging into his neck sent the scent of his own blood into the air. The wounds would heal quickly, but that didn''t mean he couldn''t feel it. He did. Yet,pared to the countless battles he had fought, the pain was insignificant. He was Alpha Kane, a warrior who had endured worse and emerged victorious. This was nothing.
When he didn''t react, Selene pressed her ws in deeper, her sharp nails slicing further into his flesh. She wanted to see him break, to hear him beg.
"Calm down, woman," Kane said, his voice steady as he grasped her wrist.
She scoffed, her smirkced with mockery. "Why? Can''t handle the pain?"
For a moment, she almost felt like a viiness in one of those twisted stories- trying to destroy another viin.
Kane''s dark eyes roamed over her face, unaffected. He saw the storm of rage in her expression, the way her jaw tightened with the sheer desire to rip him apart. Instead of looking concerned, he smirked.
"I''ve never met a woman like you," he said smoothly. "I have to admit, you look incredibly hot when you''re angry... my ck little Wolfie."
Selene''s body stiffened.
"What did you just call me?" she muttered, her brows furrowing in confusion.
The momentary distraction was all Kane needed. In one swift motion, he yanked her hand away from
his neck and spun her around, pulling her flush against his chest.
Her back collided with his solid frame, and she instantly realized what he had done-he had yed
her.
He lowered his head, his warm breath ghosting over the sensitive skin of her neck. Her heartbeat stuttered, but she convinced herself it was nothing more than anger. The longer she was trapped in his grip, the more desperately she wanted to end him.
She tried to pull away, but he tightened his hold, one arm wrapping firmly around her waist.
"Why so furious?" he murmured. "If you kill me today, who will protect your family? Do you really think the Alphas your brother once stood against won''t descend upon them like vultures? Without me, they''ll tear your family apart."
Selene''s struggles intensified. Her eyes darkened with rage, her expression fierce enough to make any other Alpha tremble. Slowly, she turned her head, bringing their faces dangerously close.
Kane''s gaze flickered.
For the first time, something shifted in his expression. His eyes dropped from her piercing blue stare to her lips.
She noticed.

Parting her lips slightly, she let her canines extend. Her voice was edged with venom. "Then let me go and see what I''ll do to my brother''s greatest rival." Kane immediately released her.
Selene wasted no time. The moment she was free, she whirled around and drove her ws deep into
his chest.
Kane inhaled sharply, a pained hiss slipping through his clenched teeth. His head tilted back, resting against the wall. His eyes squeezed shut.
Selene chuckled darkly, her lips curling with satisfaction. Watching him in pain sent a twisted thrill through her.
She had done this.
She had made him feel this.
"I was just a woman who wanted a simple, happy life with her husband," she whispered. "But you... you turned me into this."
Her voice dropped to a taunting whisper as she tilted her head. "What''s wrong, Kane Thorne? Why are your eyes closed? Open them. Look at me. Look at what you created."
His eyes slowly opened.
There was no anger in them. No pain. No regret. Just a calm, unsettling stillness. Her gaze flickered down to his chest.
She pushed her ws in deeper, intent on making him suffer, just as she had done the night of the
war. But-
A sharp, searing pain shot through her fingers.
It was like an electric shock, surging up her arm and jolting her entire body.
Her eyes widened in shock.
Gasping, she yanked her ws out of his chest, stumbling back slightly. She stared at him, utterly bewildered.
Her voice came out barely above a whisper.
"... What the hell are you?"
