Selene’s POV As I stood behind the counter, taking orders, my eyes kept drifting toward the clock. Closing time was approaching. 

Grayson had told me he’d be stopping by tonight to check on my brother. He also mentioned wanting to have a word with my father and see how Axel was doing. 

Fatigue was setting in. Ever since I got back to the shop, I had been working non–stop for the last four hours. But despite the exhaustion, I couldn’t help but feel a quiet thrill at seeing Grayson again. 

There was something about him–something gentle yet compelling–that had completely drawn me in. I kept replaying the moment he helped me when I was drunk back in my pack. It was impossible to forget that he had also been intoxicated when he first stumbled into this shop. 

The very first thing he had said upon meeting me in my pack was that he had been searching for me. 

And now, I finally understood why. 

He liked me. 

But did I feel the same way about him? 

Everyone around me kept insisting that I had a crush on him. But how much truth was there in that? 

I bit my lip, recalling my response when he asked if I would go with him to my children’s birthday party. 

I had said yes. 

I agreed to be there with him. I wanted him to meet my little ones. If they took a liking to him, that would be even better. A part of me wanted to introduce him to them, to see how he fit into our world. 

Lost in thought, I was pulled back to reality by the soft chime of the entrance bell. Instinctively, I glanced toward the glass door, expecting to see another customer. 

But the moment my gaze landed on the man walking in, my whole body tensed. 

My expression darkened. What the hell is he doing here? 

His eyes were bloodshot, and when they locked onto mine, I was caught off guard by the intensity of his glare. 

Who did he think he was? And why was he even here? 

I quickly flicked my eyes toward the other customers, noticing how a few of them had turned to glance at him. 

The last time he came here, he had stormed toward the counter, causing a scene. I braced myself for a repeat of that disaster. But instead of approaching me directly, he simply walked to an empty table and sat down. 

The customers, oblivious to the presence of their Alpha, soon lost interest and returned to their meals. 

“Alpha’s here!” 

The hushed whispers of the other waitresses reached my ears. I turned to them and muttered, “Just focus on your work.”

One of them leaned in, whispering nervously, “Selene, he must be here to see you.” 

I arched a brow. “Can you just do your job and not make a big deal out of this?”
