Selene’s eyes dropped to the woman’s hand, which was firmly gripping Kane’s arm. Her brows furrowed as she slowly lifted her gaze to meet Kane’s. Her chest tightened when she realized the woman wasn’t just holding his arm–she was clinging to it, pressing herself close. Selene instinctively took a step back, her breath catching in her throat. She waited, hoping Kane would pull away, would push the woman’s hand off him, but he didn’t. He stood there, calm, as if her touch didn’t bother him at 

all. 

The tension in the room broke momentarily when Beta Finn entered the pack house. His arrival seemed delayed, as he had been in the car behind Kane’s. A wave of relief washed over the officials as they rushed to greet him, hugging and welcoming him back. But Selene’s focus never wavered from Kane. Her heart ached as she continued to watch him, silently willing him to separate himself from the woman. Yet, he didn’t move. 

“Who is she, Kane?” Diana Thorne asked, her tone sharp and laced with suspicion. Her eyes darted to the woman’s hand gripping her son’s arm. It was clear from Diana’s expression that she didn’t approve of the closeness between the two. 

The woman turned her head toward Diana, her emerald–green eyes sparkling with a kind of innocence that didn’t sit right with Selene. She was undeniably beautiful–her soft features and youthful presence exuded a charm that could captivate anyone. Selene clenched her fists at her sides, suddenly feeling much older and wearier in comparison. 

Kane’s voice was calm when he finally replied, “Mom, this is Nyx Shadowfang.” 

Diana frowned, clearly unsatisfied with the vague introduction. “Okay, but who-”

Garrett’s gaze narrowed on Nyx, his voice strained with disbelief. “Which pack does she belong to?” 

Kane’s jaw tightened slightly, his expression darkening. “The Shadowveil Pack,” he said quietly. 

Silence fell over the room like a heavy weight. Garrett staggered backward, his face ashen, his 

breathing shallow. Delta Derek rushed to his side, gripping his arms to steady him before he could fall. The sight of Alpha Garrett’s reaction sent shockwaves through the room. Selene’s heart raced as she turned her attention back to Kane, searching his eyes for answers. But he just stood there, watching his father, unmoving. 

Diana rushed to her husband’s side, panic written all over her face. “Garrett, what’s wrong? Are you in pain? Is it your chest again?” she asked frantically, holding his hand tightly. 

Alpha Garrett took a deep breath, his grip on Derek’s arm tightening as he steadied himself. Ignoring Diana’s questions, he directed his gaze toward Nyx and asked, “What brings a member of the Shadowfang family here?” 

Selene’s confusion deepened. Why was Garrett reacting as if this girl and her family were enemies of the pack? The name “Shadowfang” clearly carried weight, but Selene didn’t understand why. 

Beta Finn cleared his throat, stepping forward to answer on Nyx’s behalf. “Alpha Garrett,” he began,
