Chapter 298 Seleneâs POV Gerd Mera The moment my eyes fluttered open, I realized I was back in my bedroom. A sharp gasp escaped my lips as I sat up slowly, scanning the familiar surroundings.
Lowering my gaze, I became aware of the clothing draped over my bodyâmenâs clothes. Kaneâs scent clung to the fabric, unmistakable and overwhelming.
Piece by piece, the events of last night resurfaced in my mind.
My fingers instinctively moved to my chest, tracing the skin just above my breasts, searching for any lingering marks. But to my shock, there was nothingâno trace of the claw wounds that had once marred me.
Confusion settled in as I tried to piece together what had happened after I fell asleep. Had he done anything else? But the clothes covering me suggested otherwise.
Stop overthinking.
The deep voice startled me. My body tensed as I turned my head toward the sound, only to find Kane sitting on the bed, casually flipping through a file.
âWhat the hell!â I gasped, scrambling out of bed and backing away instinctively.

His lips curled into an amused smirk. âYouâre asking the owner what heâs doing in his own house?â
âThatâs not what I meant! I meantâwhy were you in bed with me?â
Closing the file, he set it aside before rising to his feet. He moved toward me with a slow, deliberate stride, stopping just inches away.
âIsnât it obvious?â His voice dropped into a teasing tone. âDo I need to remind you what we were doing last night?â He winked at me.
I scowled, crossing my arms. âNothing happened. You healed the wound you gave me in the battle.
Thatâs all.â
Kane held my gaze, amusement dancing in his eyes.
âIs that all?â His smirk deepened. âWhat about after that? You lost control, Selene. You wanted me to fu-â
Panic surged through me as I slapped a hand over his mouth, my eyes widening.
âShut up, Kane! Nothing happened, and you know it,â I hissed.
A strange heat spread through my palm as I felt his lips move... Did he just kiss my hand?
Disgusted, I yanked it away and wiped it off on the shirt I was wearing. But as I did, I caught him )1131 65.21%

The fabric clung to my body, leaving far too much viable My arms snapped across my chest, shielding myself, âStay away,â I warned Kane exhaled through his nose, taking a step back and meeting my glare. âYou donât have to worry about your safety when youâre with me.â
Something in his tone felt... off. But I didnât have the energy to question it Without another word, he turned toward the door. Just as he reached for the handle, he paused and glanced back over his shoulder.
âIf my touch disgusts you so much, youâre free to take a shower, he said evenly. âWash away every trace of me.â
And with that, he walked out, leaving me standing there, heart pounding < The Alphaâs Hidden Heirs Chapter 299
