A voice drifted from behind me, moving toward the staircase. I turned my head and saw Alpha Hunter, the lead Alpha of the Steel Valley Pack.

A deep frown settled on my face as I watched him extend his hand to Selene, who was descending the steps. Without hesitation, she placed her hand in his.

“Alpha Hunter, how have you been?” Selene greeted him.

She never spoke to me that politely. Why was she so cold toward me but so warm with everyone else?

“Because you treated her poorly when she was with you,” my wolf muttered inside me.

I ignored him, keeping my gaze fixed on Selene as she exchanged nods and glances with the others. Admiration filled their eyes as they looked at her. I was taken aback when I saw Finn step forward to shake her hand as well.

Glancing around, I realized everyone else had already made their way to the meeting hall. I was the only one left, standing there, watching her.

“We don’t mean any harm. Kane wants this alliance because he genuinely wants to help,” Finn told her.

Selene arched a brow. “Help? We don’t need any help.”

I scoffed. She had grown so arrogant. Where was this attitude when she was my wife? Back then, shet had been a fragile woman, always crying over everything–a complete crybaby.
