The murmurs rippled through the crowd as Kane’s announcement settled in. I listened without reacting, though the collective shock on everyone’s faces made me wonder–was what he said really so scandalous? 

What was there to whisper about? Did they not realize that this man had allowed my family to remain in this pack? And yet, they couldn’t stop dredging up my brother’s past actions against him. 

I felt Kane’s intense gaze on me. Meeting his eyes, I made sure he saw the cold, unyielding expression I wore. He was the one who had orchestrated all this chaos, the one responsible for everything I had endured. And now, he had the audacity to stand there and play the part of a devoted father. 

My gaze drifted downward, settling on my children. A lump formed in my throat, and my vision blurred as I fought to keep my emotions in check. 

They were my world–my everything. It had been far too long since I last held them in my arms. 

“Here, take this.” 

Grayson’s voice pulled me from my thoughts. I glanced at the handkerchief he was offering, then looked up at him. His steady nod was a silent reassurance that he was by my side. 

Though I had ignored Kane’s invitation, I had still come tonight–with Grayson. I wasn’t here as Kane’s guest, but as Grayson’s partner. 

Taking the handkerchief, I dabbed at the corners of my eyes, inhaling deeply to steady myself. 

“Mommy!” 

Leo’s excited voice rang down the hall. 

The guests instinctively stepped aside, clearing a path for him to reach me. 

I immediately knelt down, wrapping him in a tight embrace. A second later, Luna joined, her small arms clinging to me just as fiercely. 

“We missed you so much, Mommy,” Luna whispered, her little hands gripping my neck. 

I held them close, pressing kisses to their temples. 

“My babies, I missed you too. More than anything.” 

When I finally pulled back, I cupped their faces between my hands, brushing my thumbs over their soft cheeks. 

“You are the most beautiful little souls in the whole world.” 

As I spoke to my children, I caught sight of a pair of polished leather shoes stepping toward me. 

Slowly, I lifted my head. 

The towering figure before me blocked out the golden glow of the chandelier above, casting a shadow

over where I knelt. 

I stood, shifting my gaze away from Kane before he could trap me in that piercing stare of this. 

“I’m glad you decided to come,” Kane said, his tone unreadable, 

Before I could form a response, Grayson spoke beside me. 

“I was the one who asked her to come with me.” 

Kane’s attention flickered from me to Grayson. His expression darkened slightly, making it clear he wasn’t pleased by his presence.
