The admiration in the girls‘ voices made Selene roll her eyes. If Kane had ordered actual poison, they probably would have swooned over that too. 

For a fleeting moment, the idea of slipping something deadly into his cup crossed her mind. 

“Such a shame. He’d die so young,” she thought, sneaking a glance at him. “If only I could actually do it.” 

Meanwhile, Kane sat by the window, his gaze distant. 

He had stormed into the café full of anger, irritation burning in his chest. But the moment he sat down and let his eyes settle on Selene, that fury began to fade. 

His mind drifted back to the rumors swirling online. A few days ago, he had been the one spreading false stories–so it wasn’t surprising that someone else had done the same to her. 

But he knew Selene. She wasn’t the type to entertain another man. She could blackmail him, tease him, frustrate him–but she wouldn’t let anyone else into her heart. 

He had already misjudged her once, wrongly assuming Leo and Luna belonged to another man. He wouldn’t make that mistake again. 

When she had come to take his order, her scent had wrapped around him, soothing his restless mind. His eyes had followed her, unable to look away. 

A thousand thoughts raced through his head, but he kept them locked away. He refused to let her see 

how much she affected him. 

Instead, he decided to stay calm. 

His focus returned to the street outside, his thoughts tangled, when the soft clink of a cup landing on 

the table pulled him back. 

Lifting his head, his gaze met Selene’s. He spared a glance at the coffee before asking, 

“Did you make it?” 

She crossed her arms, her expression unreadable. “Yeah. But to be honest, I don’t trust you. So, are you even going to drink it?” 

His fingers brushed over the rim of the cup, tracing slow circles. 

“What if you poisoned it?” 

Selene let out a soft chuckle. Kane’s fingers stilled against the porcelain, his eyes locking onto her. 

His grip tightened, his hands curling into fists. He didn’t move–just watched her. 

On the surface, he appeared calm, but inside, he was drowning in her presence. 

He wanted to pull her into his lap, to tell her she could laugh at him all she wanted–just as long as she never let another man touch her again..
