Before I could finish, Kane ended the call, making my blood boil with rage. I pulled the phone away from my ear, staring at the screen in frustration.

Just minutes ago, when Beta Finn called to tell me he had found Luna, I felt an overwhelming sense of relief. I had been searching for her everywhere, desperate to bring her home.

.But the moment I realized she was with Kane, a new wave of fear crashed over me. I had no idea what

he was planning or what I should do next.

How could he be so heartless? He had kidnapped a child–my child.

“What did he say?” Axel’s voice broke through my thoughts as he placed a comforting hand on my shoulder.

I turned to him, shaking my head. “He wants to know about their father. I think he’s figured something out.”

Axel’s eyebrows shot up. “How much does he know?”

“I don’t know, Axel. He said he’ll send me an address, but he won’t let me take Luna unless I tell him the truth. How the hell am I supposed to do that?” My fingers tangled in my hair as frustration consumed me. No matter how much success I achieved, no matter how many deals I stole from him, Kane still knew my greatest weakness.

I was in my room, pacing restlessly. My entire family knew about Luna’s disappearance, and they were doing everything possible to find her. But when Finn called, I told them a friend had found her. I didn’t want them reaching out to Kane directly–what if he hurt Luna out of spite?

“Selene, what are you doing?” Axel’s voice was laced with concern as he watched me stride toward my

closet.

I ignored him, opening the closet door. My hands trembled slightly as I unlocked a drawer and pulled out a gun.

Axel’s eyes widened in shock. “What the hell are you thinking?”

Axel. He wants the truth? Fine. I’ll tell him everything–everything I’ve been holding inside. And then I’ll kill him,” I said through clenched teeth, tears streaming

“Don’t

CAN’T!” I screamed as he grabbed my wrist. My whole body shook with fear and fury. “What do you think he’ll do once he finds out the truth? He’s Kane Thorne. That man will never let me live in peace with my children. I can’t lose them, Axel. I just can’t.”

to hold back more tears as my emotions spiraled out of control. Axel tightened his grip on my wrists, forcing me to let go of the gun just as I was about to

do this, Selene. Listen to me,” he urged, his voice softer now. “We can’t hurt him—not when his reason for being here is to attend the party Alpha Magnus organized.”
