Chapter 370 

Kane lifted his gaze to meet Selene’s, his voice trembling. “You didn’t forget?” 

“No,” she replied firmly, shaking her head.

He swallowed hard, his breath catching as he stepped closer to her, refusing to let her retreat this time. His hands reached out, gripping her arms gently but firmly enough to make her uncross them. 

“Then if you remember, why are you acting like this? Why are you so surprised about us being back together? There’s no more distance between us. Selene, let’s remarry,” he said, his voice raw with emotion. 

Selene let out a sharp scoff, her expression hardening as she pushed his hands off her. “Have you completely lost your mind, Alpha Kane? I, Selene Hawthorne, will never remarry you. How could such a ridiculous thought even cross your mind?” 

Her words hit Kane like a physical blow, his chest tightening as pain surged through him. He stared at her, his heart pounding as though it might burst. 

“Why can’t you?” he asked, his tone desperate. “You’re mine, aren’t you?” 

“Yours?” she repeated, her voice dripping with disdain. “Are you joking right now?” 

Kane took a deep breath, trying to steady himself, though confusion and frustration clouded his mind. 

“Last night,” he began, carefully choosing his words, “you asked me to make you mine. I nearly marked you, Selene, but I didn’t. I held back.” 

Her eyes flared briefly, glowing a striking blue before returning to their usual dark shade. When she spoke again, her words cut deeper than anything she’d said so far. 

“You’re lucky you didn’t mark me. If you had, you’d already be dead. And worse, I’d hate myself for it.” 

The air seemed to leave Kane’s lungs. He staggered back slightly, as though the weight of her words were too much to bear. He hadn’t marked her because he wanted to show her how much patience he had, how deeply he respected her. He had planned to mark her only after their wedding–to give her a moment she could cherish forever. But now, hearing her say this, it felt like his entire world had crumbled. 

Inside, his wolf growled furiously, its anger bubbling to the surface, threatening to take control. It snarled in his mind, its voice laced with frustration and rage. 

“I told you to mark her,” his wolf growled. “You didn’t let me take control last night. Now look at what’s happened. You’ve lost her again because of your hesitation.” 

Kane didn’t know what to say, to his wolf or to himself. His thoughts spiraled as he stood there, stunned, trying to piece together why Selene had let him get so close if she truly didn’t want him. 

Selene stepped forward, her expression unreadable as she patted him lightly on the shoulder. “Don’t take it so hard,” she said, her voice calm but cold. “It was just one night. I didn’t take the right precautions during my heat, and we ended up in bed together. That’s all.” 

Her words stung like salt in an open wound. Kane turned his head slowly to look at her, disbelief written all over his face. “Last night was just a night to you?” he asked, his voice barely above a

“Of course,” she replied matter–of–factly. “What else would it have been?” 

“You said-”

“Don’t even start with that ‘make me yours‘ nonsense,” she interrupted, rolling her eyes. “I was in heat, Kane. I wasn’t in my usual state of mind. When I said, ‘Make me yours tonight,’ I meant exactly that- just for the night.” 

Kane stared at her, his disbelief deepening. It felt like the ground beneath him was shifting, threatening to collapse. Selene raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms again. “What? Are you going to accuse me of using you? Because let’s not forget–you enjoyed it just as much as I did.” 

He clenched his jaw, his teeth grinding as he struggled to keep his emotions in check. “I did,” he admitted through gritted teeth. “I very much enjoyed it.” 

Selene gave a curt nod, her gaze drifting around the living room. “I can see you put a lot of effort into all this,” she said, gesturing to the romantic decorations. “But honestly, Kane, it’s all a waste. Did you really think a single night could erase years of pain and suffering?” 

Her words were a dagger to his heart, and for a moment, he couldn’t speak. Finally, he stepped forward and gently took her hands in his. His voice was low and pleading. “Can’t you let go of the past? Can’t we start fresh, Selene? For us… for our children?” 

She yanked her hands free, stepping back as if his touch repulsed her. “I can never let it go.” 

“Is it because of Grayson?” Kane asked, his voice cracking with desperation. “Do you love him that 

much?” 

Selene shook her head. “No, it’s not about him. In fact, I plan to tell him the truth–that I let another man touch me during my heat. I know he’ll leave me when he finds out. He deserves better than what I’ve become.”
