I stumbled to my feet and grabbed Kane's hands, gripping them tightly as if I could physically hold him back from taking my children away.

"Don't do this to me, Kane," I pleaded, my voice breaking. "I'll forget everything you've done to me in the past. I'm begging you-please don't take them away from me."

He stared at me with those cold, unfeeling eyes. There wasn't a shred of compassion in his gaze, only a cruel satisfaction as if he relished seeing me in this broken state.

"Kane, I'll die without them," I whispered, desperation thick in my voice.

For a moment, his eyes locked with mine, studying me intently. But whatever he saw wasn't enough for him. It was as though my pain wasn't sufficient-he wanted more. His lips curled into a cruel sneer as he said, "What makes you think I care whether you live or die? Are you going to die because of this? Then die."

With that, he shoved my hands away, his force sending me stumbling backward. I nearly fell, but Beta Finn stepped forward, steadying me with a firm grip. His voice was low and detached as he muttered, "It's better if you let them go.

I barely had time to process his words when I heard my mother's panicked voice.

"Malcolm!" she cried, her tone filled with dread.

I turned toward the sound and froze, my eyes widening in disbelief. My father-Alpha Malcolm-was standing before Kane, his hands folded in front of him in a gesture of submission.

"DAD!" I screamed, rushing toward him, my heart breaking at the sight.

Nothing was more humiliating for an Alpha than to bow before another, and my father-once a proud and respected leader-was now lowering himself to Kane. I couldn't believe what I was seeing.

But he didn't acknowledge me. Instead, he kept his focus on Kane, his voice steady and full of sorrow. "Those children are the only thing my daughter has ever wanted in her life. Please, don't take them away from her. I'll do anything you ask, but I beg you, don't separate them from her."

Tears burned in my eyes as I watched my father, a man who had never bent to anyone, willingly throw away his pride for my sake. He had always carried himself with dignity, earning the respect of everyone around him. But today, for me-for my happiness-he set aside his self-respect and bowed before the man who had taken everything from us.

Kane's cold gaze lingered on my father, a flicker of disdain passing over his face. "What could you possibly do for me?" he asked, his voice sharp and mocking. "Everything you had is already mine. There's nothing you can offer me. And this little act of submission doesn't suit you, Alpha Malcolm.'

I stared at Kane in disbelief. How could someone be so heartless, so utterly devoid of compassion? My father stood before him, broken and vulnerable, and Kane dismissed him as though he were nothing. Kane stepped closer to my father, towering over him as he continued, "Do you remember how you once warned me to stay away from your daughter?" His voice was laced with venom, each word cutting deeper than the last.

My father raised his head slightly, meeting Kane's gaze.

"But I'm almost stubborn enough not to listen to warnings," Kane said, his tone dark. Then his eyes shifted

to me, burning with a cold hatred. "Then I realized something-your daughter doesn't deserve

it."

His words hit me like a physical blow. The hatred in his voice, in his eyes, was unbearable. My entire body trembled with the urge to lash out at him, to scream or attack, to do anything to stop him. But I held myself back. I couldn't afford to lose control. I wasn't alone in this fight-my children still needed

Kane stepped back, putting distance between us as he turned his back on my father and me.

"You were so concerned about your daughter because of me," he said, his voice calm but dripping with malice. "You won't have to worry about that anymore."

He picked up the glass he had abandoned earlier, downing the remaining liquid in one swift motion. Then,

as he set it back on the table with a deliberate clink, he said the words that shook me to my core.

"I'm setting your daughter free today."

And with that, he walked away, leaving us shattered in his wake.
