< The Alpha’s Hidden Heirs 

Chapter 417 

Selene froze, stunned by Nyx’s bold words. Her eyes flicked to Kane, who was glaring at #yx with barely contained fury. 

“What gave you the right to go upstairs? Who told you that you could do that? 

Kane’s voice was sharp, his anger palpable. Nyx flinched at his tone and quickly grabbed Selene’s hand, using her as a shield to hide behind. 

“I was just ” 

Before Nyx could finish, Kane stepped closer, reaching behind Selene to grab Nyx’s arm. His frustration was evident, and it seemed like he was ready to scold her. 

But Selene placed her hand on his, stopping him. 

“Let it go,” she said calmly. “Maybe she didn’t have anything else to wear.” 

Kane turned his piercing gaze on Selene, his eyes filled with irritation. It startled her. He was always so gentle with her, so seeing this kind of expression unsettled her. 

“Selene,” he said coldly, “when I told you she’s just a guest, I meant it. She doesn’t deserve to be treated like one of us. Because she isn’t.” 

Selene’s grip on his arm loosened, and she averted her gaze in discomfort. She turned instead to face 

Nyx. 

Nyx’s eyes shimmered with unshed tears, her expression one of fear and vulnerability.

Kane cut her off with a raised brow and an indifferent tone. 

“No one cares what you thought,” he muttered. “Behave like a dignified guest for the week you’re here. I’ll make arrangements to send you back to your pack soon.” 

With that, Kane turned and strode toward the dining room, leaving Selene and Nyx in awkward silence. Nyx’s tears finally spilled down her cheeks, and Selene couldn’t help but feel a flicker of sympathy. But at the same time, she couldn’t deny the irritation she felt over Nyx’s behavior toward Kane. 

“Listen, Nyx,” Selene said, her voice soft but firm. “I don’t know much about you, but I’ll give you one piece of advice. Don’t desire something that isn’t yours. It’ll only lead to heartbreak.” 

Nyx wiped her tears away and looked up at Selene, confusion and hurt in her emerald eyes. 

“W–What do you mean, Sister?” 

Selene sighed, her expression calm but unwavering. “You’re young. Maybe too young to understand the difference between fantasy and reality. I owe you kindness for saving Kane’s life, but don’t mistake that for anything else. My husband might be the kind of man who catches every woman’s attention,
