Kane gazed down at the unconscious woman in his arms, his expression unreadable. Without hesitation, he carried her to his car, gently placing her in the passenger seat.

After securing her seatbelt, he reached out, pressing the back of his hand to her forehead.

She was burning up.

His jaw tightened as he straightened, shutting the door with a quiet thud. Rain streamed down his face, soaking through his clothes as he walked around the car and slid into the driver's seat.

The vehicle's interior was eerily silent-only the rhythmic patter of raindrops against the windshield and Selene's faint, uneven breaths filled the space.

But Kane wasn't driving her home.

The sudden ring of his phone shattered the quiet, drawing a scowl to his face. A quick glance at the screen told him it was Theta Gideon.

He answered with a curt, "What?"

"Alpha, we're at the club for the meeting. Where are you?"

Kane's gaze flickered toward Selene before returning to the road.

"I'm not coming."

A brief pause. Then, the voice on the other end grew more urgent.noveldrama

"What do you mean, Alpha?" There was some commotion, and then Beta Finn's voice took over, sharper, more demanding.

"You said you'd be here in thirty minutes. What's going on? This is a pack meeting, Kane."

Kane barely spared the call a thought. Right now, nothing mattered more than the woman beside him -the woman he had wanted for so long but had never been able to have.

"She's running a fever. I'm not leaving her like this," he muttered.

Silence stretched on the line. Then, confused voices murmured in the background, until Finn put the

call on speaker.

"Who?"

Kane exhaled slowly, gripping the steering wheel tighter before answering in a voice deep and firm.

"Selene."

A stunned pause.

"What? What is she doing with you?" Finn's tone was laced with disbelief. "Alpha, just drop her off at her place and come to the club. We can push the meeting back an hour."

Kane's patience snapped. His grip on the steering wheel tightened, his knuckles turning white.

"I'm not coming tonight. Cancel the meeting."

His attention shifted back to Selene. Her damp hair clung to her face, her lips slightly parted as she breathed in shallow, feverish gasps. Even soaked and pale, she was mesmerizing.

For months, she had been the only thing occupying his thoughts. Even when he kept his distance, even when he refused to let her get close-she was always there,

But wasn't loving someone from afar still love?

The drive stretched on through the storm until finally, he pulled up in front of a familiar villa,

Without hesitation, Kane parked and stepped out, moving swiftly to her side. He opened the passenger door and knelt down, carefully gathering her into his arms

once more.

As he carried her toward the entrance, the security guards stationed outside exchanged wary glances but didn't dare question him. They wordlessly opened the doors, allowing him inside.

The moment he stepped into the grand foyer, a voice rang out in shock.

Wren approached with wide eyes, her gaze darting between Kane and the unconscious woman in his

arms.

"Alpha-Luna is back!"
