The Alpha's Hidden Heirs (Selene and Kane) novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108 

Menu 

It was Kane. I hadn’t known his wolf was black. His fur was pitch dark, and his eyes burned a deep crimson–just like the ones I had read about earlier today. 

I locked eyes with him for a long moment. His wolf was massive, so imposing that if he ever revealed himself to others, no one would dare come near him. 

He took a step toward me, snapping me out of my trance. I realized I had been staring at him too long. 

Quickly, I averted my gaze and turned away. 

“Let me shift. I want to meet my mate,” my wolf, Dominic, urged inside me. She only ever stirred when Kane was close. 

I silenced her immediately. “No. He is no longer our mate.” 

As I started to walk away, a low growl rumbled from behind me. 

I turned my head just in time to see Kane’s wolf moving toward me. He was coming straight for me. 

I froze as he drew closer, his presence overwhelming. My instinct kicked in, and I raised a hand in warning. 

“Don’t come any closer. I’m not your mate. We’re breaking the bond soon. 

I shouldn’t have said that. 

Because the moment the words left my mouth, he lunged. 

With one powerful leap, he tackled me to the ground. 

Shock paralyzed me as I struggled against him, trying to push him off. But instead of attacking, he lowered his head and began licking my neck–right where Kane had marked me the night before. 

“Stop it. Let me go!” 

He ignored me. 

I wasn’t sure if Kane was in control or if his wolf had completely taken over. 

“I hate you, Kane! Get off me!” I shouted, my voice echoing through the trees. 

At my outburst, he stilled. His head lifted, and he gazed at me with an expression that sent a shiver down my spine. 

I swallowed hard. 

Slowly, carefully, I lifted my hand and placed it on his head. 

His crimson eyes fluttered shut, and he leaned into my touch, as if savoring the contact. 

That’s when I understood–Kane’s wolf still saw me as his mate. 

After a moment, he pulled away and sat beside me. 

I pushed myself up and looked at him, his eyes still closed. “You shouldn’t be attached to me. Our destinies are different. But… it was nice meeting you.” 

This wasn’t a battle between our wolves. It was a battle between Kane and me

Our wolves could speak to us, feel our emotions, share our pain–but in the end, we were the ones who 

made the choices. 

As I stood up, Kane’s wolf opened his eyes. 

And in an instant, they clouded over. 

I took a cautious step back. 

Kane was regaining control. 

Did he really just let his wolf accept my touch? Why? He could have forced him to stay away. Didn’t he realize how protective wolves were of their mates? 

I exhaled sharply. “Don’t follow me.” 

I knew it was Kane now. 

Without waiting for a response, I turned and walked in the opposite direction. 

I didn’t know where I was going–I just knew I didn’t want to be near him. 

I walked for what felt like forever, my exhaustion creeping in. The forest was so vast that getting lost here meant never being found. 

I pulled out my phone, but there was no signal. 

I tried texting Rachel anyway, but the message wouldn’t send. 

A knot of worry twisted in my stomach.. 

“I never should have come here in the first place,” I muttered bitterly. 

Just then, I heard footsteps behind me. 

I turned around–and there he was. 

Kane. 

He had shifted back into his human form, wearing only a pair of black jeans. His bare chest was on full display, his muscles taut under the moonlight. 

He must have shifted and thrown on his clothes afterward. 

I quickly looked away. “Why are you here?” 

“I could ask you the same thing,” he said, stepping toward me. 

I had no idea how to respond. 

A few minutes ago, I had been petting his wolf. Now, standing face–to–face with him, I felt a wave of embarrassment. 

I said nothing and turned to walk away. 

“You’re lost, aren’t you?” he asked. 

I clenched my jaw. “I’ve never met a more ruthless man than you, Kane Thorne. You were the one who spread that fake news, weren’t you?” 

I didn’t stop walking.

“You haven’t answered me yet,” he said, his voice calm. “But you’re right–I did post it. Don’t you want to know why?” 

I halted, then turned back to him with an icy glare. “To humiliate me?” 

His expression darkened as he shook his head. “No. To send a message to your brother.” 

My breath hitched. 

Why would he want to prove something to my brother? What had my brother ever done to him? They barely even exchanged words the last time they met. 

Kane smirked. “I heard that in your pack, your brother’s word is law. That’s impressive. But he needs to understand–things won’t always go according to his plans.” 

I had no idea what this insane man was talking about. 

“Go to hell.”
