All the officials stood frozen in shock. Kane's eyes followed Selene as she exited the party with Grayson, not sparing him a single glance.
"Where are you headed?" Beta Finn questioned, his gaze fixed on him.
Without a word, Kane reached for the suit jacket he had discarded earlier, draped over the couch.
Ignoring the lingering stares, he strode past them all, making his way toward the entrance. The jacket concealed the injury on his hand.
"Kane," Ruby's voice called out behind him.
He halted, turning slightly to acknowledge her.
She stepped closer, her expression softer than before.
"You didn't say a single word to me the entire night. Are you really starting to see me as a stranger?" she asked, subtly moving her wrist, the faint swelling visible. Kane's gaze flickered to her hand, a
reminder of the moment Selene had hurt her,
"Go to the pack hospital and have it checked. It doesn't look serious if you can still move it," he remarked coolly.
With that, he turned once more and headed straight for the door.
Ruby clenched her jaw, her eyes locked onto his retreating figure.
"He knows she hurt me, yet instead of taking my side, he's warning me not to cause a scene. That was a warning, plain and simple," she seethed internally.
She knew Kane too well-his words were never just words. They were layered with meaning, with
caution.
Frustration bubbled inside her as she stomped her foot against the floor. "Why is everything falling apart?" she muttered under her breath.
Confusion mixed with bitterness. She couldn't comprehend why Kane was acting so heartless. She had saved his life once-shouldn't that have meant something? How could he disregard her so easily?
It seemed nothing and no one could sway him.
Meanwhile, Kane stepped out of the pack house and into the night air.
His driver, who had been waiting nearby, quickly approached and unlocked the
car.
"Alpha, do you need me to drive you somewhere?" the driver asked.
Kane yanked open the door and tossed his jacket inside before turning to him.
"Hand me the keys," he ordered.
The driver instinctively reached for them but hesitated when he spotted the blood smeared across Kane's palm.
"A-Alpha, your h-hand-" he stammered.

"Just give them to me," Kane said, his voice steady but ice-cold.
The driver, sensing the tension in his Alpha's gaze, quickly obeyed and stepped aside.
Kane slid into the driver's seat, gripping the wheel with his bloodied hand as the engine roared to life.
The driver watched, concern flickering in his eyes. 'How can he even drive like that?' he wondered.
Without hesitation, Kane sped out of the pack house grounds, heading toward a place he hadn't
returned to in six years.
His focus remained on the road, but his mind replayed the events of the night.
The mask of indifference he wore cracked. His eyes darkened with simmering rage, his face growing
more severe.
His grip on the wheel tightened, veins bulging along his hands and forehead. Blood continued to seep from his wound, yet he ignored it. Compared to the fire burning inside him, the pain was meaningless.
Finally, the car came to a stop in front of a house.
Kane stepped out, leaning against the vehicle for a moment.
His gaze lingered on the familiar structure, and memories surged back like a flood.
Taking a deep breath, he pushed forward, making his way to the door.
Before he could even ring the bell, the front door swung open.
Standing there, eyes wide with shock, was Wren, the head housekeeper. "Alpha... Welcome home!"
