The Alpha's Hidden Heirs (Selene and Kane) novel Chapter 176

Chapter 176 

Meraz 

The moment the video ended, I shoved the laptop away with such force that it fell off the desk and crashed onto the floor. 

“Kane!” 

Finn’s voice was sharp as he tried to grab my arm, but I yanked it away violently. 

“How can I be so stupid? HOW?” 

I roared, my voice echoing in the room. It felt as though my chest was on fire, burning with the weight of the truth I had just uncovered. My thoughts spiraled, each one cutting deeper into my already raw 

heart 

Selene was innocent. 

She hadn’t drugged me. She hadn’t trapped me. She hadn’t schemed against me. 

The betrayal I had felt for years wasn’t hers–it had been her cousin’s. 

“Bring that bitch here to me. I will kill her!” 

I yelled at the officials standing nearby. They immediately lowered their heads in submission, not daring to meet my eyes. 

I ran my fingers through my hair, trying to steady my breathing, but the truth was suffocating me. 

Selene hadn’t just been innocent–she’d been a victim. A victim of her cousin’s manipulations, of her family’s schemes, and of my wrath. 

I punched the glass desk in front of me with all the force I could muster. It shattered instantly, shards flying everywhere. Pain shot through my hand as blood began to drip from the torn skin, but I didn’t 

care. 

“WHY?” I bellowed, my voice raw with anguish. 

Finn and Storm rushed to me, grabbing my arms to stop me from destroying everything in the room. 

“Alpha, please! Control your anger!” Finn urged, his voice firm yet calm. 

Delta Derek stepped forward, his tone cautious but urgent. “Kane, we’re in the company right now. You need to get a hold of yourself.” 

I barely heard him. My mind was consumed by the truth I had just uncovered. 

“Did you not hear me?” I growled, my voice venomous. “Bring that bitch here right now!” 

Theta Gideon stepped forward, his expression serious. “I’ll find Selene’s cousin,” he said firmly before turning and leaving the room. 

As soon as he was gone, Derek broke the uneasy silence. “Why would that woman drug you if she didn’t plan to send Selene into your room?” he asked, his confusion evident. 

Finn answered before I could. “It’s simple. She wanted to ruin Selene’s reputation–send her to an old man’s room to destroy her dignity–but at the same time, she wanted to get close to Alpha herself.”

I tightened my fists at his words, the motion causing fresh blood to seep from my wounded hand 

And then Selene’s words echoed in my mind: 

“I thought you would kill my children.” 

My eyes widened as a heavy realization settled over me. 

Was she telling the truth all along? Was her fear of me the real reason she divorced me and ran away? Had she hidden my children from me just to protect them from me? 

The weight of my guilt hit me like a tidal wave. 

I lowered my head, my breathing uneven as my wolf growled inside me. He was furious–not at her, 

but at me. 

“You were wrong!” he snarled, his voice ringing in my head. “You hurt our mate! You didn’t even try to 

find the truth!” 

He was right. I had been wrong from the start. I had let my anger blind me, and in doing so, I had hurt
