Selene’s POV It had been two days since I last saw Grayson, and those two days had been filled with nothing but contemplation. I’d been weighing my decision over and over again, but today, I had to make a move. I couldn’t just sit around any longer. 

My thoughts had been running in circles, and even Axel’s advice had crossed my mind more than 

once. 

I finally understood–I needed to take control of my life. How much longer was I going to live like a woman with no one by her side? 

Grayson hadn’t been wrong to ask me for a chance. His approach might have been questionable, but his intentions had always been crystal clear. 

It was midday, and I was at work at Shadow & Moon Coffee Shop, moving through my usual routine. 

“Got plans after this?” one of the waitresses asked as she wiped down a table. 

It was lunchtime, and the café was temporarily closed while the staff took their break. Everyone was seated, enjoying their meals before the afternoon rush began. 

“Yeah, meeting up with a friend,” I responded casually. 

Margot wasn’t in today–she had left town to visit her family and wouldn’t be back for a week. Before she left, she put me in charge, trusting me to keep things running smoothly in her absence. 

I appreciated her confidence in me, but the weight of responsibility was heavier than I anticipated. Managing the waitstaff while ensuring customers were satisfied wasn’t as easy as it seemed. 

And then there was Alpha Kane’s coffee. Every single day, I had to prepare his usual order and have it sent to his office–something I couldn’t afford to forget. 

“You going to see the Alpha?” another waitress chimed in, making me pause mid–step. 

I turned toward her, raising an eyebrow. 

“What makes you say that?” 

She immediately waved her hands in defense. “Oh, don’t take it the wrong way! It’s just that you mentioned the other day that he was an old friend of yours. You’re lucky–our head Alpha being your friend? That’s a big deal.” 

I didn’t bother responding. Instead, I grabbed my things, locked up my locker, and stepped out of the 

café. 

I’d heard plenty of women gossiping about Kane in the shop. It seemed like every young girl in town 

was infatuated with him. 

Even though Kane wasn’t old–he was in his late twenties–he was still significantly older than most of the girls swooning over him. No matter what rumors surrounded him, it never stopped them from admiring him. 

And in just two days, he had silenced every single person calling him a cheater. Or maybe, no one had the guts to challenge him in the first place.

<Chapter 239 

I hailed a cab and headed straight for the hotel where Grayson was staying. 

Med 

But when I arrived, I was caught off guard–Grayson was already outside, standing next to a sleek car. A group of men was loading bags into the trunk, signaling that he was leaving. 

My chest tightened. 

“Stop here,” I told the driver, quickly paying the fare before stepping out. 

Grayson must have sensed my presence because he pulled off his sunglasses the moment our eyes 

met. 

“Selene?” His voice carried a hint of disbelief, as if he hadn’t expected to see me again. 

I walked up to him, studying his reaction. He had clearly assumed I wouldn’t reach out. 

“Where are you going?” I asked, my gaze flickering toward the packed trunk. 

He leaned back against the car, arms casually crossed. 

“As I said before–I’m leaving today.” 

I clenched my fists. I had come here to stop him, but he was already prepared to go. 

“What about my brother?” My voice was firmer than I expected. 

Grayson exhaled, shaking his head. “Selene, I told you before–I can’t help you with that. To me, Alpha Magnus is just another patient.” He hesitated before adding, “But if you’re willing to…” 

I cut him off before he could finish. 

“I accept your condition.”
