Selene’s POV It had been two days since | last saw Grayson, and those two days had been filled with nothing but
contemplation. I'd been weighing my decision over and over again, but today, | had to make a move. | couldn't
just sit around any longer.
My thoughts had been running in circles, and even Axel’s advice had crossed my mind more than
once.
| finally understood-I needed to take control of my life. How much longer was | going to live like a woman with no
one by her side?
Grayson hadn't been wrong to askfor a chance. His approach might have been questionable, but his
intentions had always been crystal clear.
It was midday, and | was at work at Shadow & Moon Coffee Shop, moving through my usual routine.
“Got plans after this?” one of the waitresses asked as she wiped down a table.
It was lunchtime, and the café was temporarily closed while the staff took their break. Everyone was seated,
enjoying their meals before the afternoon rush began.
“Yeah, meeting up with a friend,” | responded casually.
Margot wasn’t in today-she had left town to visit her family and wouldn't be back for a week. Before she left, she

And then there was Alpha Kane's coffee. Every single day, | had to prepare his usual order and have it sent to his
office-something | couldn't afford to forget.
“You going to see the Alpha?” another waitress chimed in, makingpause mid-step.
| turned toward her, raising an eyebrow.
“What makes you say that?”
She immediately waved her hands in defense. “Oh, don’t take it the wrong way! It's just that you mentioned the
other day that he was an old friend of yours. You're lucky-our head Alpha being your friend? That's a big deal.”
| didn’t bother responding. Instead, | grabbed my things, locked up my locker, and stepped out of the
café.
I'd heard plenty of women gossiping about Kane in the shop. It seemed like every young girl in town
was infatuated with him.
Even though Kane wasn’t old-he was in his late twenties-he was still significantly older than most of the girls
swooning over him. No matter what rumors surrounded him, it never stopped them from admiring him.
And in just two days, he had silenced every single person calling him a cheater. Or maybe, no one had the guts
to challenge him in the first place.

But when | arrived, | was caught off guard-Grayson was already outside, standing next to a sleek car. A group of
men was loading bags into the trunk, signaling that he was leaving.
My chest tightened.

| walked up to him, studying his reaction. He had clearly assumed | wouldn't reach out.
“Where are you going?” | asked, my gaze flickering toward the packed trunk.
He leaned back against the car, arms casually crossed.
