The Alpha's Hidden Heirs (Selene and Kane) novel Chapter 261

Chapter 261 

It was my words that made Selene stop in her tracks. I watched, waiting for her reaction. 

Hadn’t she wanted this before we divorced? Her voice still echoed in my mind. 

“Babe, don’t go to her. I’m your wife. Please come back to me.” 

Merry 

The memory of her pleading lingered, her words looping in my head. My jaw tightened as regret settled in–regret that I hadn’t ended things with Ruby sooner. 

Selene slowly turned to look at me. 

“What did you just say?” 

Meeting her eyes, I gave a firm nod. “I broke up with her.” 

I had expected relief, maybe even happiness, from her. Ruby had always been the barrier between us, keeping me from reaching Selene the way I wanted. So I ended it–to clear the path back to her. 

But the reaction I got was nothing like what I had imagined. 

Her expression hardened, anger flashing in her eyes. “You’re not a real man.” 

My temper flared. “What?” 

“You spent nearly seven years with that woman, and now you suddenly decide to end it? The only thing you’re good at is breaking a woman’s heart. What else should I expect from you?” 

Her words left me momentarily speechless. I took a step toward her, but she immediately stepped 

back. 

“What’s wrong with you? You should be happy that I broke up with her.” 

“Happy?” She let out a bitter laugh. “Why would that matter to me? Whether you break up with her or crawl back into her arms, it has nothing to do with me. Honestly, you two deserve each other. Why ruin such a perfect match?” 

I clenched my teeth. “How can you say that? You told me you loved me.” 

Selene’s lips parted slightly. “Love?” 

She looked away, as if lost in thought. 

“I used to love you. So much…” 

The moment she said used to, something inside me cracked. My chest tightened painfully. Then she turned back to me, a small, knowing smile on her face. 

“I’m not that foolish girl anymore, Kane. The one who ran after you just to get your attention. The one who begged you to come home, who pleaded with you not to bring up divorce. The one who spent years trying to convince you that I never bullied your girlfriend. The one who desperately wanted you to think about our future. The one who begged you to love her back.” 

Every word she spoke hit me like a punch, dragging up memories I had tried to bury. 

“Selene-”

“No, Kane.” She cut me off coldly, “I don’t love you anymore. You’re just the father of my children now. That’s all. You may have some control over their lives, but not mine. You used to enjoy tormenting me.” Her gaze was unwavering. “But I won’t let you do that to me ever again,” 

I reached for her hand, but she yanked it away, 

“Watch me, Kane,” she said, her voice steady and unwavering. “I’m going to live my life to the fullest, with no regrets. And there’s nothing you can do to stop me.”
