Grayson fixed his gaze on Kane, choosing not to respond. The warning had been clear-Kane wanted

Selene back.

He's only after her because she's his mate, Grayson thought grimly.

His eyes shifted to Selene, who gave him a small wave and mouthed an apology for not leaving with

him.

Grayson offered her a reassuring nod, silently letting her know he didn't mind.

Kane, however, caught the entire exchange.

Sliding into the driver's seat, he glanced at his kids in the back before turning the key in the ignition.

As the car rolled forward, something suddenly came to Selene's mind. She turned toward Kane, her brows furrowing.

"Wait-what about their car? We could've just taken that."

Kane kept his focus on the road, not even sparing her a glance.

"I asked you a question," Selene pressed, her voice laced with impatience.

Still, he remained silent, as if refusing to acknowledge her. Frustration flared within her, her jaw tightening.

I

Why did I even agree to this? She could've easily gone with Grayson and let Luna and Leo ride with

Kane.

The atmosphere in the car grew thick with unspoken tension.

In the backseat, Luna and Leo exchanged uncertain looks.

"Leo, why is Dad mad?" Luna whispered.

"I dunno," he murmured back.

"Do something."

"What am I supposed to do?"

"Make him talk to Mom."

Leo thought for a second before replying, "Maybe he's mad about Uncle Grayson."noveldrama

Hearing that, Luna's frustration flared. Why did Grayson have to interfere with their family? She silently wished he would just disappear from their lives.

Determined, she turned to her father. "Daddy," she called sweetly.

Kane made a low sound in response.

Selene, uninterested in whatever was happening behind her, kept her gaze fixed out the window.

"Daddy, I want ice cream," Luna suddenly announced.

Selene turned her head sharply. "Luna, you can't have ice cream every day. You'll catch a cold."

Luna shook her head stubbornly. "No, Mommy, I want ice cream right now."

Mery

Leo immediately understood what his sister was trying to do. He glanced at their mother and added, "Mom, let's stop for ice cream."

Selene sighed in exasperation. "Why don't you two ever listen? I'm not saying no to be mean. You've had plenty of ice cream the past two days."

"But Mom-"

Before Luna could argue further, Kane's voice cut through the conversation.

"Leo. Luna." His tone was firm. "What did I tell you?"

The twins immediately lowered their heads, remembering his words-Don't bother your mother.

"Okay," they mumbled in unison.

Selene shot them a confused glance before shifting her attention back to Kane. Not once had he looked at her since they got in the car.

A few minutes later, Kane pulled over just down the street from Selene's house.

She figured he was stopping there on purpose-probably to avoid seeing her parents.

The moment the car halted, Luna and Leo unbuckled their seatbelts and scrambled out, quickly shouting a goodbye to their father before rushing inside.

Selene blinked in surprise at their urgency.

Do they need the bathroom or something? Why the rush?

She exhaled, shaking her head, unable to figure out what was going through their little minds.

Kane had remained silent the entire ride, and Selene saw no reason to break that pattern. Without a word, she stepped out of the car and started toward the house.

But then-

"Selene."

Kane's deep voice stopped her in her tracks.
