Chapter68

Third Person

Kane was in a foul mood all day. After his conversation with Selene, he stayed away from the hospital.

He swore to himself he wouldn’t care about that woman anymore. He hated how she’d made him feel last night.

“Alpha, we lost the deal. Some of our people went behind our backs,” his secretary announced, dropping a bombshell.

Kane hurled the file across the room in rage. He shot to his feet, making his secretary flinch.

The secretary backed away, head bowed low.

“How the hell did we lose this project? Who dared to cross me?” Kane’s voice was ice–cold.

The stress was evident on his face, though it wasn’t just about the lost deal. Something else was eating at him.

“WHO?” he roared.

His secretary nearly collapsed. “The eastern packs are now shipping their goods to Iron Crown Pack.”

Kane’s eyebrows shot up. “What did you just say? Which pack?” he snarled through clenched teeth.

“I–Iron Crown Pack.”

Kane let out a furious growl.

The sound brought Beta Finn running to his office. The growl had been loud enough to send shivers through the entire floor. Everyone knew when their Alpha lost it like this, there’d be hell to pay.

“What’s going on?” Finn asked, noticing the scattered file.

Finn quickly sized up the situation – Kane looked murderous, and his secretary was practically shaking

in his boots.

“What happened?” Finn directed his question to the secretary this time.

After hearing the explanation, Finn’s eyes went wide while Kane continued to seethe.

“So that’s why Alpha Magnus showed up here. I should have known…” Kane muttered darkly.
