Kane's hands froze mid-motion, hovering over the clothes he had been moving. Selene immediately noticed the subtle change in his demeanor. Her brows

furrowed as concern crept into her voice.

"What happened?" she asked softly,

He didn't respond, his silence filling the room with tension. Selene frowned, stepping closer. She reached out and tapped his shoulder lightly, trying to prompt him.

Kane finally grabbed the clothes he had selected, closed the closet door, and turned to face her. His expression remained unreadable.
