Kane took a long gulp of his drink, his expression unreadable, and muttered, "That old man truly has a

vision."

Finn swallowed hard, bracing himself before speaking again. "And he said you should protect Nyx from Selene."

At those words, Kane's grip on the glass tightened. His eyes darkened, the storm brewing within him evident. Finn diverted his gaze, hesitating as he continued. "I was shocked when I heard that. Raven said you should let Selene fight her own battle. This is her war, not yours. But..." Finn paused, choosing his words carefully. "She can't hurt Nyx."

Kane's hand slowly relaxed, his hold on the glass loosening as though he was trying to rein in his rising temper.

Finn continued cautiously. "When I asked him about what was happening with you, he said there's no way anyone could manipulate Alpha Kane. Not with magic, not with tricks."

Kane's sharp, focused eyes were locked on something in the distance, his mind clearly elsewhere. Finn followed his line of sight, noticing how Kane remained eerily calm, as though the chaos surrounding him barely registered.

"He also said,” Finn added, "that the man who broke a years-long spell with just a growl can't possibly be possessed by another witch or wizard."

Finn stopped, waiting for Kane's response. But Kane remained silent, his attention unwavering. Finn frowned, realizing Kane wasn't even processing his words. Instead, Kane's gaze was fixed on something-or someone-outside.

"Don't you think Gamma Storm is spending a little too much time with your Luna these days?" Kane finally said, his voice low and calculating.

Finn's expression twisted in confusion as he turned to look outside the window. There, he saw Selene speaking with Storm. Her hand rested lightly on his arm, and the two appeared engrossed in conversation. Storm was speaking to her, his head held high, maintaining steady eye contact with her.

Turning back to Kane, Finn stared at him in disbelief. "Are you serious right now? I'm talking to you about something important, and you're over here spying on your wife from a distance? Are you for real? Two weeks ago, when you were in the Shadowveil Pack, you were terrified out of your mind. And now, you're suddenly this calm?"

Kane chugged the rest of his wine, placing the empty glass on the windowsill with a deliberate motion. He turned to Finn, one eyebrow raised, his demeanor utterly unbothered. "I was scared for Selene and my children's safety. Now I'm back. Who's stupid enough to even look their way?"

Without another word, Kane moved to his desk and sat down, leaning back in his chair with an air of authority. Finn followed, pulling up a chair on the other side of the desk.

"I asked Raven about the child," Finn began hesitantly. "He said-"

"Is he a doctor now?" Kane interrupted, his tone dripping with sarcasm.

Finn sighed, his frustration mounting. "No, but you know he has the ability to see things we can't. You

"And what did he say?" Kane's glare bore into Finn. "That the child is mine?"

Finn hesitated, lowering his gaze. He wasn't sure how Kane would react to what he was about to say, but there was no avoiding it. "I... I guess that's what he implied."

Kane stared at Finn for a long moment before letting out a low chuckle. Shaking his head, he leaned forward slightly. "You went to the wrong person this time, Finn."

Finn's head snapped up, confusion written all over his face. "What do you mean?"

Kane's glowing brown eyes locked onto Finn's, making the Beta blink in alarm. The intensity in Kane's gaze was unsettling, but he didn't move. He wasn't in pain, yet the anger simmering there was undeniable.

"Now he's going to tell me if the child is mine? Does he think I'm a fool?" Kane's voice was calm but laced with a dangerous edge.

Finn was momentarily at a loss for words. "D-Do you know the truth? Are you saying... that it's not your child?"

Kane's lips curled into a slow, confident grin. "Don't you trust your Alpha?" he asked, his tone mocking.

"I do," Finn said hurriedly. "But that day... you were in her bed. When everyone arrived, they caught you in the same room with her..."

Finn trailed off, the memory flashing through his mind like a bad dream. He forced the image from his thoughts and turned his attention back to Kane. "When I asked Raven about the child, he confirmed that she's carrying Alpha blood."

Kane's smirk widened at that. "Of course he did. Typical."

Finn frowned. "What's that supposed to mean?”

Kane leaned back in his chair, his expression cold and calculating. "Remind him that Alpha Kane is no fool. By giving you that twisted answer, he's trying to

manipulate me into protecting that witch."
