A slow smile crept across his face as the intensity in his expression softened. His eyes dropped to his hand, where fresh blood oozed from the wound on his palm. The pain barely registered–it was nothing compared to what he had endured before.

But for once, he didn’t want to act tough in front of her. For the first time, he wanted her to see him as vulnerable.

“You’re right,” he murmured, his voice low and rough.

“The glass didn’t shatter, and it barely even grazed your skin,” she pointed out.

With a sigh, she grabbed his wrist to examine it more closely. The instant her fingers brushed against him, he let out a sharp hiss, as if in agony.

Her eyes narrowed.

“Kane Thorne, do you take me for a fool?”

Her cold tone made him freeze. Whatever playful mood he had been in vanished in an instant. He pulled his hand back from her grasp, his expression turning unreadable.

“It’s fine,” he muttered. “Go home. I don’t need treatment–I can handle it myself.”

There was something in his voice, something unexpectedly sullen. Selene exhaled slowly, puzzled by www 09:12 < Chapter 340 the sudden shift in his demeanor. Was he actually hurt?

“I’m headed to the hospital,” the driver called out. “Hey, kid, you want a ride?”

Kane glanced at the man’s injury, then down at his own hand. After a beat of silence, he shook his head.

“Nah, go ahead. I don’t need a ride.”

Selene blinked, startled by his response. As the cab pulled away, she turned back to him with a questioning look.

“Why didn’t you just go with him?”

A grin stretched across Kane’s lips. “Because I’d rather go with you.”

Selene rolled her eyes. Before she could respond, movement in the distance caught her attention. She noticed a sleek black car approaching from behind.

Kane’s driver pulled up beside them and rolled down the window. “Alpha.”

“You! Didn’t you say it was painful?”

“Woman, stop testing my patience. Just come with me to the hospital. I’ll make it worth your while.”
