Chapter 249 

Kane’s POV 

“Hold on,” I murmured, stepping toward her. 

To my surprise, she got into the car. 

“Drive,” she instructed the cab driver.

Before he could, I grabbed the edge of the window, stopping her from leaving. The driver hesitated, choosing not to start the engine. 

I slid into the seat beside her, my gaze locked on her face. 

“Listen to what you just said.” 

She stared straight ahead, refusing to acknowledge me. Her indifference dug into me like a blade. Nothing infuriated me more than when she shut me out. 

“Who is it? Who did you choose? Grayson Vale?” 

The moment his name left my lips, she turned to face me. 

Her expression turned frigid, her hatred for me unmistakable in her eyes. 

The dim glow of the streetlights streamed through the window, casting faint shadows across her face. 

I studied her. The woman I had married years ago had been delicate, almost fragile. Back then, her eyes had only held warmth for me. Now, they were as cold as ice. 

“My man is waiting for me at home,” she said, her voice sharp and cutting. 

The way she was so eager to return–to him–sent a searing pain through my chest. 

So the rumors… and those pictures… 

She frowned slightly, as if she had no idea what I was referring to. 

I scoffed, shaking my head. “Why am I even asking?” 

“Go back to your girlfriend,” she snapped. “She’s the one who deserves your lazy affection, not me–a coffee shop worker. So tell me, why are you even here, wasting your time? I have no interest in talking 

to you.” 

I held my ground, my fingers gripping the window frame tighter. Every word she threw at me only fueled my frustration. 

“Stay away from that man,” I warned, forcing myself to stay calm. 

“Sir, please stop bothering the lady-” 

My glare shot to the driver, silencing him instantly. 

Did he really think I was just some guy harassing a woman on the street? 

“Brother, this pack isn’t exactly safe for women,” Selene muttered to the driver.

“Our Alpha? He’s powerful,” the man replied defensively. “Since he took over, things have changed. Women are safer now.” 

Selene let out a dry laugh, clearing her throat. “Yeah, I can see just how safe it is.” 

I clenched my jaw, shutting my eyes briefly. Her mockery only ignited my anger further. When I opened them again, she was staring right at me. 

Her gaze burned with silent accusations. My grip tightened on the window frame. 

“How long do you plan to keep running from me?” My voice was low, steady. “You think you can escape Axel and Grayson forever? What’s your endgame?” 

Suddenly, she leaned in, closing the space between us. My breath hitched. 

My control wavered as she stopped just inches from my face. 

She smirked then, but it wasn’t the kind that used to make my heart race. This one was bitter, laced with something sharp and painful. 

Then she whispered, 

“My plan? I’ll just smile… and watch as you destroy yourself.”
