The Alpha's Hidden Heirs (Selene and Kane) novel Chapter 41

Chapter 41 

I accepted Doctor Nathan’s lunch invitation since I wanted to discuss Garrett’s condition anyway. 1 nodded in agreement. 

“We have a cafeteria for the medical staff. Would that be okay?” he asked 

“Yeah, sure.” 

We walked to the cafeteria, which was an attractive space on the left side of the lobby. 

The place was spotless and welcoming. As we walked in, people in white coats glanced our way. 

They showed their respect to Doctor Nathan with slight nods. He led me to the last table by the window and pulled out a chair. 

“Have a seat,” he offered. 

“Thanks.” 

After I sat down, he took the chair across from me. 

He placed the bouquet on the table and called over a waiter, who quickly came to our table. 

“Doctor Nathan,” the waiter greeted him before glancing at me. 

I felt uncomfortable as people started looking our way. I started thinking maybe coming here wasn’t such a great idea. We should’ve gone somewhere else. 

“Please order whatever you’d like,” Doctor Nathan said, pointing to the menu on the table. 

Since I hadn’t eaten breakfast, I was pretty hungry. I picked up the menu, placed my order, then handed it back to Doctor Nathan. He ordered his food, and the waiter left. 

“So? How did you manage to survive? It’s truly a miracle,” Doctor Nathan said. 

I looked down at my hands on the table, then turned to look out the window, watching cars pass by outside the hospital. After gathering my thoughts, I replied, “Getting across the border was tough. But luck was on our side – it saved both my babies and me.” 

“How are they doing?” 

I looked back at him. “They’re doing great, healthy too. Thank you, Doctor Nathan, for keeping my 

secret.” 

“Call me Nathan – you already said we’re close friends.” 

I figured the receptionist must have told him what I’d said earlier. 

I gave him a small smile. “You’re right. If I can call you my friend, that works, Nathan.” 

“I’ve seen those posts,” he said. 

“Posts?” I asked, confused. 

“The Iron Crown Pack Beta’s statement, and then your post about Ruby and Alpha Kane.” 

“Oh.” 

“Everyone thought you were dead. But after seeing your pictures with the Alpha, I realized you’re living

in the Iron Crown Pack now.”

“Yeah. That pack is my home now.” 

“How are you managing there? What about your kids? How are you raising them? If you ever need help, just ask.” 

“Thanks, Nathan, I really appreciate your concern. But I’m actually really happy there. My babies are doing great. Want to see some pictures?” 

“Of course,” he replied with a warm smile. 

I pulled my phone from my bag and was surprised to see so many missed calls from my brother and Beta Axel. 

Nathan glanced at my phone screen and asked, “Was he telling the truth in that statement?” 

I looked up at him. This man had helped me so much – I didn’t want to lie. I shook my head. 

He raised his eyebrows. “Really?” 

“Yeah.” 

“Then why haven’t you set the record straight?” 

I shrugged and said, “I don’t need to. I don’t care what people in this pack think about me.” 

He stared at me thoughtfully for a moment. 

Then I opened my phone’s gallery and showed Nathan some pictures of my kids, including some from when they were newborns. 

“They look like their father,” Nathan commented quietly. 

I looked away and took my phone back. As I lowered my head, I bit my lip hard. 

To be honest, I didn’t know what to say. My parents had said the same thing. 

I was lucky Kane hadn’t noticed how much they resembled him. 

My mind wandered to their meeting with him. They couldn’t forget him – one wanted to see him again, while the other totally disliked him. 

I was lost in these thoughts when Nathan spoke up. 

“Did you know Kane knows about them?” 

I looked at him and said, “They met him at the airport when I was coming back from the council event.” 

I frowned. “But how do you know about that?” 

He turned to look out the window and sighed. “He came to see me a few days ago. Asked if you were pregnant when he left you at the hospital five years ago.” 

My heart skipped a beat as I worried about what would happen if Kane discovered the truth.
