#Menu âItâs okay.â Selene said softly, her voice trembling. âI also did something that wouldâve led to us breaking up anyway. I donât want to lie to you. The night before last, I was in heat. Kane was with me that night.â
Graysonâs brows lifted in surprise, but he quickly composed himself, taking a deep breath. He knew it was time to let her go.
âIâve always wanted to protect you,â he said after a moment. âBut that manâhe truly loves you. Iâm a man, Selene, and I can see it in him. He cares about you deeply. Kane even warned me onceâtold me to stop digging into my past so Iâd leave you. I brushed it off then, but now I understand. He mustâve already figured out my feelings for Vera. In fact, heâs the one who kept me tied to my pack, just so he could spend that vacation with you.â
Selene frowned as pieces of the puzzle started to fit together. She remembered how Vera had been called back to the pack unexpectedly because of the shop. Grayson had even mentioned how his workload had suddenly become overwhelming, and how another Alpha had called on him for unnecessary help.
âWeâre over, Grayson,â Selene said with a small, bittersweet smile. âGo back to your lost love. Mark her, marry her, and give her the life she deserves. Youâre a good man.â
Grayson nodded, his expression somber. âAnd you should go back to your love, too. I was your boyfriend, but I always felt like there was a hollow space between usâbecause you were never truly mine. You gave me a chance, and Iâm grateful for that. But you never forgot about the man you once loved. You think you hate him, but deep down, you still love him, Selene.â
Selene didnât respond to his words. Instead, she took a deep breath, nodded, and said goodbye.
Afterward, she returned to the coffee shop to formally say goodbye to Margot and wished Vera happiness with Grayson. She could see the love Vera had for him, and Selene felt a sense of relief knowing they could finally be together. It was better this way. She didnât want to stand in the way of two people who clearly belonged together.
From the coffee shop, Selene went to the pack house one last time before heading home. She met Kaneâs parents, Garrett and Diana. Garrett looked visibly upset about her departure, while Diana, who was still battling her illness, pulled Selene into a tight hug.
âThank you,â Diana said, her voice frail but full of emotion. âIâll always be grateful to you for saving my son.â
Selene smiled through her tears before going to see her children. She was braced for the worst, expecting Leo and Luna to cry, but what they said took her by surprise.
âDad said Mommy has a life too,â Leo said matterâofâfactly.
âWe can see you whenever we want,â Luna added, her little voice steady but firm. âWe promised Dad we wouldnât cry.â
Seleneâs heart broke at their words. Unable to hold back her emotions, she pulled them into a tight embrace and cried silently.
She didnât want to leave them, but she knew she had to.
She whispered to them to take care of themselves and always listen to their father. Like the good 16.33 71.67%

#Menu As she made her way to the pack houseâs entrance, she ran into Kaneâs officials.
âMy Alpha made mistakes with you,â Finn said, his expression sincere. âBut heâs trying to make things right. I hope you wonât hold any grudges against him.â
Selene shook her head and replied, âI wonât. When I cross the border, Iâll leave my past behind.â
Outside, Kaneâs driver was already waiting for her with the car.
âAlpha ordered me to take you home,â the driver said politely.
Selene turned back to look at the pack house one last time. Her gaze lingered as she waved to her children and Kaneâs parents, her heart aching as she climbed into the car.
As the vehicle pulled away, tears streamed silently down her face. She didnât notice the figure watching her from a secondâfloor window.
Kane stood there, his serene eyes clouded with emotion as he watched the car disappear through the i ron gate.
âDad, Mommy left,â Leoâs small voice broke through his thoughts.
Kane turned and saw his children standing behind him, their eyes filled with tears they had tried so hard to hold back.
He knelt to their level and pulled them into a tight embrace. âIâm sorry,â he whispered, his voice thick with guilt. âI couldnât keep my promise. I couldnât bring your mommy back to you.â
The dam broke, and Luna and Leo began to cry in his arms. They had stayed strong for their mother, but now that she was gone, they couldnât hold it in any longer.
Kane held them close, his own tears falling as he tried to console them. âDonât cry,â he whispered. âItâs my fault. I made your mommy unhappy. But from now on, Iâll make sure she never has to cry again- even if I canât be with her.â
