The morning was far from ideal for Selene. For days now, her wolf had been acting strangely, howling inside her without any clear reason. The unexpected behavior left–her unsettled, and no matter how many times she asked her wolf what was wrong, the answer was always the same: 

“I want my mate.” 

Kane’s absence haunted her. Though she had resumed control of the pack’s company, her focus was fractured, her mind constantly drifting back to that night when her heat had consumed her. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t move on. It felt as though her life had been frozen in place since she returned to her pack. 

Her children visited her every month, and their conversations often strayed to their father. Every mention of Kane filled her with an ache she couldn’t ignore. She found herself wondering how he was doing, her thoughts anchored to the words he had once spoken to her: “I will never marry again. For me, you will always be my wife.” 

Selene exhaled deeply, hoping the day would unfold like any other. But the sudden sound of her door slamming open interrupted her thoughts. She spun around to find Axel standing there, his expression tense and his eyes wide with urgency. 

“What’s wrong?” she asked immediately, alarmed by his demeanor. 

“Selene, come downstairs. There’s something you need to hear,” Axel said sharply, grabbing her hand and pulling her along without waiting for her response. 

Confused and surprised by his actions, Selene followed him to the main floor. Once there, her eyes landed on Delta Derek, whose presence only deepened her confusion. 

“Derek?” she murmured, her brows knitting together. 

Magnus stepped forward, his gaze fixed on Selene. His tone was measured but carried an unmistakable weight. “Kane has declared you the new Head Alpha of his pack.” 

Selene blinked, her frown deepening. “What are you talking about?” 

Magnus glanced briefly at their parents before turning back to her. His voice softened as he explained further. “Kane’s health is failing. He’s injured, and… well-” 

Her breath caught in her throat as her eyes welled with tears. “And what, brother?” she asked, her voice trembling. 

The next words shattered her. “Kane is dying. Before his death, he named you the new Head Alpha of his pack. Only his pack and a handful of us know about this.” 

Selene’s head shook in disbelief, and she stumbled back a few steps. “No. That can’t be true. He can’t die,” she whispered, her voice breaking. 

The room grew heavy with silence. Her family shared her grief, their sorrow evident on their faces. Delta Derek stood with his head bowed, his expression one of profound helplessness. He finally spoke, his voice tight with frustration. “We’ve tried everything, but there’s nothing we can do. Even Nathan couldn’t find a way to help him.” 

Magnus added, his tone grim, “I’m sending men to the battlefield to assist him, but his injuries are

severe. The poison in his body has spread too far. Grayson, the healer, admitted that it’s beyond his 

abilities now.” 

Selene’s eyes widened in shock. “Poison? But-” 

Before she could finish, Delta Derek interjected, recounting everything about Kane’s condition. He detailed how the poison had begun affecting him months ago and how it had worsened with each passing day. His fists clenched tightly as he said, “We’re powerless to stop it. Watching our Alpha like this… it’s unbearable.” 

Selene couldn’t hold back her tears. They flowed freely, streaking her face as she wiped them away with trembling hands. “Take me to him,” she demanded, her voice steady despite the emotion in her 

eyes. 

The room fell silent, stunned by her words. 

“But there’s a war going on,” her mother, Evelyn, protested. “You can’t just walk into that chaos.”
