Chapter69 

“Alpha Magnus?” 

Kane was stunned. Had she really left his pack with that Alpha?

“Yes, Alpha Magnus. Back when I was Luna, I met his parents, Alpha Malcolm and Luna Evelyn, several times. They’re good people,” Diana told her son as she sat by her unconscious husband. 

Before Kane could ask more, she continued, “Actually, they were supposed to visit our pack years ago. Your father wanted an alliance with them. They agreed too. But then something happened.” 

Kane arched an eyebrow. “What are you saying? That they were too proud to come here? Or they just pretended to want the alliance?” 

Diana shook her head. “No. We learned the truth later.” 

“What truth?” 

“Their baby daughter died.” 

His eyebrows shot up. “They had a daughter?” 

“Yes. Word was their newborn died in an accident. People stopped talking about it – it was too painful for the parents.” 

Kane listened silently. This was all news to him. 

“After that, all eyes were on their son, Magnus. They poured everything into their only child. They were terrified of losing him too.” 

Kane stood up from the couch when his mother finished. 

“Mom, I can feel sorry for what happened to their family. But that doesn’t mean I need their son’s alliance.” 

‘Not after what I saw in that footage,‘ Kane thought as he left his father’s room. 

His mind was racing. Why had Selene left with Magnus? Was it more than just one night? 

The thought of her spending the night with another man made his blood boil all over again. 

He felt like smashing everything in sight. 

He headed to the reception desk. Everyone jumped to their feet when they saw him. 

“Alpha.” They all bowed. 

“Show me Selene Wade’s discharge papers,” he ordered. 

“Selene Wade?” A woman mumbled, searching but coming up empty. 

“We don’t have any patient by that name, Alpha.” 

“Check again.” 

“Oh, yes… it’s Selene H–Hawthorne…” The woman stuttered, pausing when she saw the last name. 

Kane remembered he’d written ‘Selene Thorne‘ on her admission papers last night. 

He’d almost forgotten – she wasn’t a Thorne anymore. She wasn’t his wife.

His jaw clenched as he recalled how worried he’d been about her. She didn’t deserve his concern, 

“She checked out today. Here are the papers.” 

Kane grabbed them and looked at the family signature. 

He let out a bitter laugh. 

“Magnus Hawthorne,” he muttered. 

He threw the papers back on the desk and stormed out.

What right did Magnus have to sign as her family? Who was he to her? Husband? Boyfriend? Or just her so–called fiancé Axel’s disloyal friend? 

Hadn’t Axel announced he was her fiancé? Did he know what she was doing with his Alpha behind his back? 

Back at his apartment, Kane headed straight for the bar and grabbed a bottle of wine. 

He was so angry he could destroy everything in sight. The wine was the only thing keeping his rage in check. 

As he drank, his mind kept going back to Selene. He couldn’t believe that sweet woman who used to chase after his attention had turned out like this. 

Then came a knock at the door. He got up, wine glass in hand. 

Ruby stood on the other side. Without waiting for an invitation, she waltzed right in, clearly in a great 

mood. 

“Kane, why are you drinking alone? Let’s have drinks together,” Ruby said, heading to the bar after tossing her purse on the couch. 

She poured herself a glass and came over. “Cheers.” 

After clinking glasses, she took a big sip. 

Kane watched her carefully. Ruby used to be this shy girl who couldn’t handle high society. Now here she was, showing off like she owned the place. 

Ruby backed up while talking, keeping her eyes locked on his. 

“Kane, remember when we first met? You said you’d been looking for me. I didn’t get why then. But you 

said I owned your heart.” 

Kane listened, thinking back to that day. 

“You told me you were married but would divorce your wife for me. I was fine with that. I’d do anything if you loved me. I even changed my whole look to fit into your world.”
