The Alpha's Hidden Heirs (Selene and Kane) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 

I shut my eyes and turned my head away from the screen, forcing myself to push aside the sudden surge of desire. 

This wasn’t the time for that. 

“Why you?” 

Her confused voice rang in my ears again. I opened my eyes and turned back to the screen 

By then, she had already adjusted her robe, and her hair now fell over her cheat, covering any exposed skin 

My thoughts drifted back to our earlier encounter. I couldn’t shake the image of her leaving with Grayson Vale 

“You thought you could talk to my kids without my permission, and I’d just let it slide?” I asked, my voice edged with irritation. 

She swallowed hard and shook her head. “I can only ask you to let me, Kane. Please. This is the only way I can stay in touch with them. Don’t take that away from me.” 

Her voice was heavy with exhaustion. I studied her for a moment, not wanting her to realize that I was the one who had allowed the kids to contact her in the first place. 

Looking away, I reached into my pocket and pulled out a pack of cigarettes. 

“Are you seriously smoking in your kids‘ room, Alpha? Where are your manners?” she snapped, her tone sharp with disapproval. 

I shot her a look, lighting the cigarette without breaking eye contact. Taking a slow drag, I exhaled the smoke before speaking. 

“What’s your relationship with Grayson Vale?” 

Her eyebrows lifted in surprise, as if she hadn’t expected the question. 

“Excuse me?” 

“No, I won’t excuse you.” 

“Kane Thorne, you have no right to ask me that.” 

I raised a brow, nodding slightly. “Alright then. Don’t bother calling your kids again.” 

I moved my finger toward the screen, pretending to end the call. 

Her eyes widened in panic. “No, no! Wait!” 

I smirked. “Done pretending to be arrogant? Now tell me the truth.” 

She glared at me. “You are the most insufferable man I have ever met.” 

“And yet, here you are. Now, will you answer me?” 

I was growing impatient. The thought of her leaving with him had been bothering me more than I

I studied her closely. Her voice wavered slightly at the essention of her brother 

“So he’s going to heal him?” 

“Yeah.” 

A strange sense of relief settled over me. The weight pressing on my chest lifted, even if only slightly 

I had been trying to keep my emotions in check, but somehow, just seeing her eased the tension inside

How much power did this woman have over me? 

“I told you everything,” she said firmly. “Now don’t take the phone and tablet away from them.” 

I rolled my eyes. “I was never planning to take them away.” 

Her lips parted in shock. “So you lied just to get the answer you wanted?”
