192 The next day after Romano and Caius's clash. Romano was locked on Caius's order. He tried to talk Selene into releasing him but she refused m, it was Caius's order and for the safety of them all. If the humans are coming to attack them, Romano is better being kept under watch. Selene stood outside the house with Lydia pressed against her chest, Behind her, Caius stood with his hands shoved into his coat pockets, his face unreadable. Kael and Lena, waiting a few steps back, packs slung over their shoulders. Selene brushed a damp curl from Lydia’s face. Her eyes were red and heavy with tears. “I don’t want to go,” Lydia whispered, her voice trembling. “You promised you’d stay with me.” Selene’s throat tightened. “And I am. Always.” She knelt and cupped Lydia’s face in both hands. “But I need you to be somewhere safe.” “But you’ll be alone.” Selene smiled faintly. “I’m never alone, sweetheart. You’re in here.” She touched her chest. “Right here.” Lydia hugged her tight

Chapter 194 Selene blinked slowly, the morning light stretching through the curtains and casting gentle patterns across the room. Her gaze drifted to the man beside her. Caius. He was lying on his side, his face turned toward hers. The curve of his jaw was strong, his lips, soft and slightly parted as he breathed. She reached out, brushing a finger along his cheek, tracing the roughness that belied his gentleness. Caius stirred. His eyes cracked open slowly, and they found hers in a moment that felt suspended in time. Selene quickly looked away, a heat rising to her cheeks. A low laugh rumbled from him, warm and teasing. He shifted on the bed, settling lightly on top of her, leaning closer until their foreheads almost touched. “You know,” he murmured with a grin, “I’ve always wanted to see how you looked as Sal, again.” Selene scoffed, the sound turning into a laugh as she pushed lightly at his chest. “Never. That’s one thing you will never get to see again.” He chuckled, and

196 The pack’s territory came into view as they crested the hill. Caius parked outside the pack house , and they both jumped out. Kael rushed towards them, his face grim. A small crowd of pack members gathered nearby. Selene caught the glint of unease in their eyes as she and Caius approached. “Alpha,” Kael said, stepping forward. His gaze flicked to Selene, then back to Caius. “It’s Romano. He’s gone.” Selene’s stomach dropped. “Gone? How? He was locked up.” Kael’s jaw tightened. “Someone let him out. Don’t know who yet. The guards were knocked out, no serious injuries, but they didn’t see anything. We’re searching for him now.” Caius’s eyes darkened, his voice low. “Any tracks? Scent?” Kael shook his head. “Nothing clear. It’s like he vanished. But the pack’s on edge, they are scared.” Selene glanced at the gathered wolves, she stepped closer to Caius, her voice low. “We need to calm them down before this turns into a mess.” He nodded, his expression hard but focused. “Kael

Chapter 198 They reached the pack house, Selene squeezed Lydia’s hand, then let her go to Caius, who lifted her onto his shoulders. Inside the pack house, Lena sank into a chair, in the large sitting room, stretching her legs with a groan. “Long night,” she said, managing a tired grin. Selene laughed softly, settling Lydia onto the couch with a blanket. “You’re telling me.” She glanced at Caius, who was leaning against the wall, watching them quietly . Her mind flicked back to the moment at the house, before the mind link, before Romano. “Hey,” she said, her voice low, “what was it you wanted to tell me back there?” Caius’s eyes softened, a small smile tugging at his lips. He pushed off the wall, crossing the room to her. “Been waiting for the right moment,” he said. Selene’s brow furrowed, “What’re you talking about?” He didn’t answer right away. Instead, he dropped to one knee, pulling a small, worn leather box from his pocket. Selene’s breath caught, her eyes widening as he
