Though Kane wanted to stay at the hospital, Finn convinced him to get some rest either at his company apartment or the pack house. 

With both his parents at the pack hospital – his father still under treatment – Kane decided against going to the pack house. Since his car was totaled in the accident, Finn’s driver gave him a ride to his apartment. 

In the backseat, Kane stared out the window, feeling awful. His wolf was deeply disturbed by Selene’s condition. Today had made one thing crystal clear – he couldn’t fight the mate bond anymore. 

He realized these intense feelings for Selene had to be because of their mate bond. It struck him how much more affected he was by Selene’s situation than even his father’s illness. 

When they arrived at his company apartment, the driver opened his door with proper pack protocol. Kane acknowledged him with a nod and headed for the entrance, only to find Ruby waiting there. 

“What brings you here?” he asked while fishing for his keys. 

Ruby’s eyes widened at his bandaged hands. “What happened to you?” 

“Nothing,” he dismissed, unlocking the door. 

She followed him inside. “Why are you shutting me out? I’m your fiancée – I have a right to know what’s going on with you.” 

Settling on the living room couch, he asked calmly, “How did you know I’d be here?” 

“I visited your dad at the pack hospital. Your mom mentioned you haven’t been at the pack house lately, so I figured you’d be here,” Ruby explained, standing before him. 

“Hmm.” That was all he offered. 

Her eyes narrowed as she noticed blood seeping through his black shirt. She leaned in to examine it, but Kane instantly grabbed her wrists. “What are you doing?” 

Horror crossed her face when she realized the blood. “Are you hurt?” 

He pushed her hands away firmly. 

She winced, rubbing her wrist where the burn mark was. The sight reminded Kane of Selene’s scar, but he quickly pushed that thought away. 

“Why are you here? Need something? Didn’t I tell you to go through my secretary?” 

Ruby’s fists clenched. “So you think I only come around when I want something?” 

Standing up, Kane replied, “It’s late. Go home. We can talk tomorrow.” 

As he headed for his bedroom, Ruby grabbed his arm. “Why are you avoiding me, Kane?” 

He stared pointedly at her grip until she continued, “That woman nearly broke my hand, and you said you’d handle it. Why haven’t you punished her yet?” 

Kane removed her hand. “You’re not that weak. Why didn’t you stand up for yourself then?” 

“Like I said, I wanted you to see her true colors.” 

Looking away, Kane muttered, “I don’t want to discuss this now.”
