The Alpha’s Hidden Heirs by Avery Rose

Chapter 444

It was late in the evening, and Selene was nowhere near the pack house. Instead, she found herself in the smoky, dimly lit atmosphere of a nightclub. She couldn't bear to stay in the house, where the sight of Nyx was a constant reminder of Kane's betrayal. Every glance at Nyx's face reignited the pain of his infidelity, a wound that refused to heal.

Her emotions churned within her, so raw and overwhelming that she had nearly forgotten she was carrying a child. Drink after drink slid down her throat as she tried to drown the agony, if only for one night. Gamma Storm had offered to accompany her, but she had waved him off, reminding him that shadowing her wasn't his only responsibility. Now, she sat alone in a private cabin at the club, her way of avoiding unwanted attention.

Selene sipped her drink, letting her eyes wander across the scene before her. The cabin's glass partition gave her a clear view of the main lounge. A group of young men lounged on sofas, their laughter blending with the rhythmic thrum of the music. Close by, women in tight dresses draped themselves over the men's laps, their flirtatious giggles filling the air. Selene scoffed softly at the sight, her lips curling into a bitter smirk.

"Cheaters," she muttered under her breath. "I bet every single one of them has a wife at home, thinking her husband is stuck in some business meeting."

Her disdain didn't go unnoticed. One of the young men stood up, his interest piqued, and approached her. "Miss, are you here alone?" he asked, his tone smooth but laced with arrogance.

Selene rolled her eyes, choosing to ignore him. She turned her back on him, sinking deeper into the couch with a fresh drink in hand. Her thoughts spiraled back to the betrayal that had shattered her trust. The man, undeterred by her disinterest, slid into the seat beside her. She sensed the shift in the couch and glanced sideways. His eyes were glued to her backless dress, shamelessly tracing the exposed skin from the nape of her neck to her lower back.
