“Hey! Stop the car!” I shouted, my voice sharp with frustration.

“Are you deaf? I said stop the car!” I repeated, but the driver, just like his boss, ignored me completely. It was as if my words didn’t even register. 

I glanced at the man sitting beside me–Kane Thorne. A dangerous beast in human form, capable of ending my life without a second thought. My mind raced. Was this his plan? To kill me and take my children for himself? Was he that afraid of me? Afraid I might follow through with what I’d said that night–about killing him every single day in my head? 

Lost in my spiraling thoughts, I was startled when his voice broke through the silence. It was low, calm, and impossibly soft. 

“Why do you think I want to kill you?” 

His tone caught me completely off guard. It wasn’t the cold, commanding voice I was used to. It was almost… gentle. 

“What the hell?” I thought, staring at him in disbelief. “Can Alpha Kane even talk like that?” 

Turning to face him fully, I found him staring back at me, his gaze steady and unreadable. 

“What are you looking at?” I snapped. “Can’t you see I’m worried about your plans? Why do you want to kill me? Is it so you can have my children all to yourself? Well, guess what, Kane Thorne–you can’t kill me. I’ll kill you first.” 

My voice was sharp and biting, but I noticed the driver’s reaction immediately. He stiffened in his seat, his hand drifting toward his waistband, undoubtedly reaching for a gun. 

I bristled, ready to growl a warning at him, but before I could, Kane’s deep voice sliced through the 

tension. 

“Keep driving,” he ordered. 

The driver froze, his hand stopping short of the weapon. He glanced at Kane through the rearview mirror, then gave a small nod and returned his focus to the road. 

I couldn’t believe it. Everyone in this pack seemed to carry a gun. 

“Relax,” Kane said, his tone almost amused. “I didn’t order him to shoot you. He’s my driver–of course, he’s armed. It’s for protection.” 

I clenched my jaw and kept quiet. There was no point arguing with him. Still, I wasn’t completely defenseless. My wolf was ready to strike if necessary. I wasn’t as skilled a fighter as Kane, but I could hold my own. If he came at me, I’d make sure to leave my mark on him–wounds he wouldn’t forget. 

“I should’ve killed him that night in the war,” I muttered under my breath. 

“You hate me, don’t you?” Kane asked, his voice calm but probing. 

“Of course,” I replied flatly.

“How much?” he pressed, his gaze unwavering. 

I turned my head, meeting his eyes. His expression had softened, and for a moment, I thought I saw something there–something I couldn’t quite decipher. But I didn’t want to waste my energy trying to figure it out. 

“More than I love my children,” I said coldly, my voice like ice. 

His reaction was instant. His face darkened, his shock evident. He clearly hadn’t expected that
