I was convinced Selene would regret leaving me. She’d come crawling back home soon enough. Sol didn’t let it bother me much after I got home.

I was in a foul mood, though. Dad had really laid into me after Selene left the pack house.

I was furious with her. I just waited for tomorrow morning, when she’d return here helpless and defeated. I couldn’t wait to see the look on her face.

That night, I had a dream.

I was kidnapped by some thugs, and then I heard a girl’s voice calling out to me. She rescued me from danger and treated my wounds with medicinal herbs. I kept trying to see her face, and this time, I finally did it wasn’t Ruby, but Selene!

I bolted upright in bed, wide awake.

It wasn’t just a dream – it was a nightmare about my past.

When I was a kid, my father had to protect me constantly since we had enemies everywhere. Being my father’s only heir and future pack leader made me a target – other Alphas wanted me dead.

Once, one of my father’s rivals actually managed to kidnap me.

The trauma was still fresh, which was why it showed up in my dream.

Looking out the window, I realized it was already late morning. “I’ve never slept in this late,” I muttered.

What I saw in my dream couldn’t be real. Ruby was the one who helped me back then. But Selene… that woman had gotten into my head. I’d make her pay when she came back.

I headed straight for the shower.
