"Kane,
put me down."
© Get 5?
I've been yelling at this man for the past few minutes, but he acted as if he were deaf-completely ignoring me while continuing to walk in an unknown direction.
What imitated me the most was how slow he was moving, as if he were an old man with all the time in the world.
"If you really want to help, then pick up the pace. My secretary is waiting outside, and she's an omega. I'm worried something might happen to her."
He scoffed. "And what about you? Aren't you an omega too? What gave you the audacity to wander into the dark forest at night? What if something happened to you?" His tone dripped with sarcasm.
I frowned at him. "Excuse me? Who do you think you are to lecture me? Who gave you any authority over me?"
He glanced down at me, his expression unreadable.
"Will you shut up, or..." He trailed off.
I narrowed my eyes. "Or what? What exactly will you do?"
His gaze flickered from my eyes to my lips before he smirked. "Or I'll shut you up my way."
Heat crept up my neck, and I quickly averted my gaze. "Don't push me, Kane. I can be a real problem for you."
"Oh really? And how exactly would that work?"
His mocking tone was meant to provoke me, to make me lash out.
It was impossible to erase the hatred I held for this man. Every horrible thing he had done to me replayed
in my mind like a cruel reminder. Especially the time when I was pregnant-it all came rushing back, reminding me of the pain he caused.

How could I forget? The agony still lingered inside me, carving a hollow space in my heart that would never be whole again.
I hated myself for even engaging in conversation with him. My jaw clenched as I closed my eyes, trying to suppress my anger.
But my fury was too strong. My claws extended instinctively, my rage demanding an outlet. Who was he to treat me like I was weak?
I wrapped my arms around his neck, and for a moment, he thought I'd given in.
He scoffed. "See? Now you realize that only I can help-"
He suddenly froze, his words cut off as my claws dug into the flesh of his upper back, just below his neck.
With a sharp twist, I raked my claws down his back, ensuring he felt every ounce of pain.
A low groan escaped him. He shut his eyes, enduring the sting.
I chuckled darkly. "I'm not the fragile woman you think I am. I can be colder than you've ever been to 1770

His eyes snapped open, glowing red, his wolf reacting to the pain.
"Who... are you?" His voice was filled with confusion as he stared at me.
His sudden question threw me off. My claws immediately retracted as I pulled away.
Did I cut too deep? Did I somehow mess with his memories?
"How did your claws extend so easily? A normal wolf can't do that."
I smirked. "Not everyone has the same abilities, you know. Just because you have a giant wolf doesn't mean you have all the power."
For a brief moment, I caught something in his expression-amusement.
Suddenly, a tingling sensation spread through my arm, making my body jerk in his grasp.
"Having a giant wolf and all the abilities that come with it-that's what makes Alpha Kane unstoppable," he said smugly, dragging his claws lightly over my skin.

I lowered my head, watching his fingers brush against my
*How does he always manage to come out on top? Is he the Moon Goddess' favorite or something?"
I looked away, trying to wriggle free, but his grip only tightened.
"Trust me. I know the way. I'll help you get back to your secretary," he said, his voice calmer now, as if he genuinely meant it. His claws retracted as well.
I knew that arguing with him would be pointless-he never listened. So, I stayed quiet and let him lead me back to my car.
After a while, a familiar voice called out from somewhere nearby.
"Boss, where are you?"
"That's Rachel!" I blurted.
"Relax. We're almost there," Kane assured me.
I was taken aback. How did he know where my car was parked? Wasn't he deep in the forest? How could he possibly know?
A realization hit me like a bolt of lightning.
I smacked his chest with my fist. "You planned this, didn't you?"
"What?" He barely reacted to my hit, pretending to be clueless.
"You knew exactly where I wanted to go. You did this on purpose! You were close to the street the entire time, trying to trap me!"
He smirked and winked. "And you fell right into it."
"You bastard! Put me down right now!"
I yelled, but he ignored me, continuing toward the glow of the streetlights.
As we reached the road, I spotted Rachel standing near a tree. She was calling out my name, clearly
panicked. She looked like she was just about to step into the woods to searchdor me.

The moment she saw us, relief flooded her face-only to be replaced by shock when she realized Kane was carrying me.
"Put me down," I muttered angrily under my breath.
Kane paid no attention to me. Instead, he walked straight to the car, where my driver was waiting outside.
The moment the driver saw us, he rushed to open the back door.
Kane helped me onto the seat before shutting the door behind me. Then, he turned to Rachel, who was standing behind the car, looking flustered.
Her cheeks tumed bright red as she awkwardly avoided looking at Kane's bare chest.
"Take care of your boss. Her leg is injured," he said before turning and disappearing back into the forest.
Rachel leaned toward the car window and whispered, "Boss, his back was bleeding!"
I shrugged. "That's not our problem.
A few moments later, his figure vanished into the darkness.
I stared after him, my expression unreadable.
Why had he helped me tonight? He could have left me there-let me suffer, or worse. But he didn't.
A hand on my leg brought me back to reality.
I looked down to see Rachel examining my ankle, her brows furrowed in thought.
She reached into her bag, pulled out a tissue, and moved to touch my leg...
"Don't," I said quickly. "I'll do it myself."
"It's fine, Boss. Let me clean it."
She gently wiped my ankle, then froze.
"Boss... there's no wound. Your skin is completely unmarked, like you were never hurt at all." 151721
