Kane remained still, his gaze fixed on Alpha Malcolm.

The older man looked utterly defeated-like a father who had already lost too much and had nothing left but the
desperate plea to protect what remained.
“I've already lost one child,” Malcolm said, his voice heavy with grief. “I can’t lose another.”
Kane's grip tightened around the doorknob. A cold sensation spread through his chest, numbing him from the
inside out.
The flicker of emotion in his eyes darkened, swallowed by the abyss of his own turmoil. Then, with a slow nod, he
made his decision.
“I'll grant your request.”
With those final words, Kane turned and walked out of the study,
Alpha Malcolm stood frozen, his mind struggling to process what had just happened. Had he really succeeded?
Had he actually convinced Alpha Kane to stay away from his daughter's life?
He hurried after Kane, watching the man’s rigid posture as he moved. Over the years, Malcolm had heard
countless stories about Kane. As the former head of the pack, he had even maintained a good relationship with
Kane's father, Alpha Garrett. But everything changed the day Selene was taken- stolen away while they were
supposed to be visiting this very pack. They had searched everywhere for her, but she had vanished. From that
moment on, Malcolm had severed all ties with Kane's pack.
As they entered the living room, Selene immediately rose from the couch and rushed toward her father.
Kane's steps faltered as he turned his head, catching sight of her. His fingers curled slightly, recalling the
photograph he had found in the study. He hadn't returned it to her father. Instead, he had slipped it into his
pocket, holding onto it like a silent reminder of everything he had done to her.

“Dad, is everything okay?” Selene asked, concern lacing her voice.
Kane didn’t answer. He could see the worry etched on her face, but he forced himself to look away and continued
walking toward the entrance.
Just as he reached the door, Evelyn Hawthorne spoke up from behind him.
“Alpha.”
Kane stopped but didn’t turn around immediately. When he finally faced her, his expression remained
unreadable.
Evelyn cleared her throat before speaking again, her voice softer this time.
“| set the table for lunch. It's already that time, and we can’t let you leave without eating something.”
Kane's gaze flickered to Selene, who silently shook her head at her mother, subtly pleading for him not
to stay.
He let out a slow breath before offering Evelyn a small, polite smile.
“Thank you for the offer,” he said evenly, “but I'm not hungry.”

With that, he turned and stepped out of the house.

By the the reached his car, his expression had shifted-his face void of emotion, his eyes distant. His driver
wordlessly opened the back door for him, and Kane slid inside, leaning back against the
seat.
His body felt hollow.
He had arrived carrying a burden of pain, but now he was leaving with something far worse-an ache that could
never be mended.
“Alpha, where to?” the driver asked, glancing at him through the rearview mirror.
Kane blinked slowly, his eyes drifting

“Somewhere no one can find me.”
The driver hesitated, momentarily stunned. “Alpha...”
Kane turned to look at him, his expression unreadable.
“Takehome.”
