Kane’s eyes widened in disbelief, her words cutting through him like a blade. Selene, however, seemed unfazed, tilting her head slightly as if surprised by his reaction. 

“What’s with the look on your face?” she asked, her tone almost mocking. 

Kane stared at the card in his hand, his voice low but filled with disbelief. “Bed service? Is that what you’re calling last night?” 

“Absolutely,” Selene replied without hesitation, her voice sharp and unyielding. “And I must admit, you did a pretty good job.” 

For a moment, Kane was silent, his gaze fixed on the card in his hand. Anger and regret wrestled inside him, but he said nothing. Her words stung deeply, but they also dredged up memories he had buried long ago. 

He thought back to the past–the nights they had shared, the cruel things he had said to her. He had once dismissed her most vulnerable moments with him as nothing more than “bed service.” He had even handed her his bank card as if to put a price on their intimacy. At the time, his anger and pride had gotten the better of him, and though his intentions weren’t entirely wrong–he had wanted her to have financial security–his words had been unforgivable. 

And now, here she was, throwing those same words back at him. 

“Don’t overthink it,” Selene continued, her voice cold and detached. “Once upon a time, you gave me your so–called ‘bed services.‘ Now, I’ve given you one night. That’s it–nothing more, nothing less. Just take the card and move on. I know it might not seem like enough to you, but how much do you think a single night is worth? This should cover it. I never used that card because I saved it for our children’s future. But now that they’re with their father, I don’t need to worry about them anymore.” 

Kane’s grip on the card tightened until the sharp edges dug into his palm, nearly drawing blood. His jaw clenched, his body trembling with suppressed emotion. 

“Okay,” he finally said, his voice low and strained. 

Selene raised an eyebrow, her expression unreadable. “Okay? What do you mean by that?” 

He raised his gaze to meet hers, his eyes filled with a mixture of pain and resignation. “I’ll take it,” he said. “I deserve it–for all the pain I caused you.” 

For a moment, Selene’s hardened expression faltered, and her eyes softened, just slightly. But it wasn’t long before the anger returned, blazing in her gaze. “Yes,” she said bitterly. “It’s better that way.” 

But instead of pocketing the card, Kane extended it back to her. “Keep it. I don’t want your money, Selene. I’ve never wanted your money. The only thing I’ve ever wanted is you.” 

Selene shook her head firmly, her voice rising with frustration. “You will never have me again, Kane. Don’t you get it? I’m done. I can’t keep fighting you, can’t keep telling you to leave me alone. Why are you still here, ruining my life?” 

Her composure cracked, her calm mask slipping away. Rage flashed across her face, and her voice trembled with the weight of her emotions. “If you keep this up, I don’t know what I’ll do. But I do know one thing–I can’t be with you. Not now, not ever.”
