With fear written all over her face, the woman stood beside Theta Gideon. The moment her eyes landed on the formidable man before her, her legs trembled uncontrollably. 

Kane’s dark gaze was so intense it felt as if her heart might burst from her chest. It was like staring straight into the face of death itself. 

Her wrists were bound behind her back, and her knee–length dress exposed parts of her legs, which bore a few scrapes and bruises. 

Her eyes hesitantly drifted away from Kane and landed on the woman standing next to him. 

At that moment, her expression changed–her eyes widened in shock. Kane didn’t miss her reaction. 

Turning his head slightly, he shifted his attention to Ruby, who looked just as stunned as the captive 

woman. 

“Do you know her?” 

Ruby remained frozen, unable to respond, her gaze locked onto the woman. Kane’s fingers brushed against her hand, causing her to flinch. 

“H–Huh?” she stammered, jerking her head toward him. 

Kane’s expression was unreadable, like the still surface of a crystal–clear lake concealing dangerous depths. No one could ever guess what went on in his mind. 

By now, all of his men had stepped out of their vehicles, standing by, ready to follow his orders. 

“I’ll ask you again. Do you know this woman?” Kane’s voice was calm but firm. 

“N–No. I–I don’t know her,” Ruby answered, her voice slightly shaky. 

Kane let go of her hand, narrowing his eyes. 

“Then why are you stuttering?” 

Immediately, Ruby straightened her posture and cleared her throat. “You’re right, Kane. I should get going now.” 

He said nothing in response, only watching her silently. But Ruby stole another glance at the bound woman before turning back to Kane. 

“Who is she, anyway? Why are you holding her prisoner?” 

A smirk tugged at Kane’s lips as he glanced back at the woman. 

“Caught my eye. Don’t you think she’s stunning?” 

Ruby’s brows furrowed in irritation as she shot a sharp look at the woman. “Did you actually try to seduce him?” 

The woman frantically shook her head. “N–No, I swear.” 

“See? I told you–I’m not a good man,” Kane said, his eyes still fixed on the woman. “Now, go home and celebrate the breakup.”

As Ruby hesitated, Kane muttered under his breath, “Tonight’s going to be a long night.” 

“A–Alpha, please, 1-1 didn’t do anything.” the woman pleaded.
