I stood there, curious and irritated, wondering who had been calling her nonstop and interrupting our conversation.
When I peeked at her phone, I noticed the call was from a nameless number. It seemed even she didn't know who was calling her.
"Hello?" she answered.
Her face changed instantly, lighting up with a bright smile. It was a stark contrast to the cold, gloomy expression she'd worn just moments ago.

Grayson? The nhitlike a jolt. Who the hell was Grayson? I frowned, my eyes narrowing as I watched her. That smile-that glowing, radiant expression-was something I hadn't seen in years. Who had the power to change her mood so completely? "After that night, I thought you wouldn't contactagain," she said, her voice full of warmth.
'That night?' My fists clenched tightly, my nails digging into my palms. What night was she talking about? Did she dare to spend the night with another man? My mind spiraled with questions as I stood there, staring at her.
On the other end of the phone, the man's voice cthrough faintly. "I'm sorry for what I did. After sending you to the hotel, I realized I shouldn't have put my phone number in your pocket. That was kind of inappropriate, wasn't it? Please forgive me." I froze.
'Who was this man, and why was he apologizing like that?' An image flashed in my mind-Selene throwing herself at someone else. My blood boiled at the thought.
What about Axel? Hadn't she almost married him? And now, here was another name-Grayson.
I was consumed with confusion, anger, and frustration. Selene was an enigma. Every tI thought I understood her, she provedwrong. Every tI thought she was guilty, she ended up innocent.
And this time? "Yeah, yeah," Selene muttered, glancing atbriefly while speaking into the phone. "All thanks to Alpha Kane, who helped you that night." Her words hitlike a slap. Doctor Grayson Vale.

I hadn't forgotten the way they leaned against each other in my car that night. The memory of it still burned in my mind. My jaw tightened as I looked away from her, trying to push the thoughts out of my head.
'How had the healer gotten so close to Selene? And why?' She continued her conversation, oblivious to the storm brewing inside me. "I'm currently on the bridge over the Duskrun River," she told him.
Hearing her say that, I looked back at her.
Selene's smile-soft, sweet, and genuine-was something I hadn't seen in years. It was the kind of smile that reached her eyes, making her glow from within.

The realization hithard. She had never smiled atlike that.
Anger surged through me, not just at Selene but at Grayson as well. He was a healer, someone who worked for all the packs. His presence in my E pack was supposed to be a good thing. But now, I found myself questioning his intentions. Why was he so interested in Selene? What was his motive?
My thoughts churned, but my eyes couldn't leave her face. Her delicate features seemed even more striking now, and for the first tin years, I found myself wondering what her life had been like without me.
How had she spent all those years? Had she ever missed me?
The thought madeuneasy. I had spent years searching for her, herm consumed by the need to punish her dby for leaving me. But now, standing here, all of those emotions felt tangled and uncertain. "Okay," I heard her say into the phone, her voice snappingback to reality. "Yes, sure. Please pickup from the Duskrun River. I'll wait for you." My chest tightened at her words. She was calling for Grayson to cand get her, right in front of me. She wasn't just ready to leave-she was ready to leave with him.
