| watched my brother warn Kane, who was staring at Magnus with cold indifference. My brother was right - Kane
was shameless, having the nerve to approach us after learning the truth. He was lucky | hadn't told my brother

The tension between Magnus and Kane was palpable, like they’d been mortal enemies for years. | noticed
several other Alphas looking uncomfortable at their intense standoff.
Taking Magnus’s arm, | intervened. “Magnus, | think Dad's calling us. We should head over.”
Magnus caught my drift and nodded, clearly wanting to avoid making a scene. Still, his eyes burned with
vengeance when he looked at Kane.
| was worried Kane might bring up my children in front of everyone, but surprisingly, he remained quiet. Though
clearly insulted, he let us walk away without a word.
“That bastard!” my brother growled as we headed toward our father. “Did you see his arrogance? The nerve of
him to approach us like that!”
I rubbed his arm soothingly. “Keep it together, Magnus. He's always been like this. At least now he

knows the truth.”
He stopped and turned to me, patting my head reassuringly. “If he ever tries anything with you again, your
brother will end him.”
I nodded, and we joined our parents. My mother pulledaside, concern written all over her face. “Are you
okay? Why did he approach you and Magnus? What did he say?”
“Mom, I'm fine. He can’t hurt- | have all of you now.”
She exhaled deeply. As a mother who'd witnessed her daughter's heartbreak, who'd heard every sob during my
pregnancy, she was terrified of Kane hurtingagain. | could feel her pain and fear.
I hugged her tightly. “Mom, aren't you happy? You always wanted to tell everyone about me. Now everyone
knows who | really am.”
She pulled back, cupping my face in her hands. “Of course I'm happy, sweetheart. Nothing means more to a
mother than being able to claim her children as her own.”

him everything was fine. | could tell he’d make a great father someday when he had his own
children.
Needing squiet tto call my twins, | headed to the terrace. The full moon greeted me, bathing everything
in its silvery light.
I smiled up at it as | dialed Edmund’s number. Luna’s voice cthrough immediately, sounding upset.
“Mommy, we're mad at you. You don’t care about us anymore.”
Her tone caughtoff guard. “What's wrong, baby? Didn't Aunt Rachel tell you I'd spend all day with you

“Mommy, why are you so busy? We're all alone here. We don't like it. Even Grandpa and Grandma

“Sweetie, I'm so sorry. Just one more hour, okay? Have you had dinner?”
“Tell Mommy we don’t want to eat,” Leo chimed in.
“I'm sorry, babies. | promise we’ll go out tomorrow. You pick the place - anywhere you want.”
“We don’t want to go anywhere,” Leo snapped.

His words were met with silence. | felt like a failure. My babies were upset with me, and my wolf whined, sharing
my pain.
“Mommy, we're sorry. Are you mad at us?” Luna's voice turned small and worried.
“No, babies. Mommy loves you both so much. How could | ever be mad at you? You're my whole world.”
“Okay, Mommy,” Luna said, her tone brightening. “Can we go to the park near our school? All my friends go
there with their parents.”
“Of course we can,” | said, trying to sound cheerful.
Relief washed overas their anger subsided. | made sure they promised to eat dinner and go to bed, which
they agreed to do.
After hanging up, | let out a deep breath. I'd been on the terrace long enough - it was tto head back to the
party.
But as | turned to leave, | froze. Kane was leaning against the wall, his presence making my blood run

The realization hit- he'd been there the whole time. That's why my wolf had been whining earlier. Though he
remained silent, his eyes were stormy with emotion. | looked away and tried to make a quick exit.
