Chapter 388 "Kane, I still can't believe how deeply you love her. You made her the Head Alpha of your pack!" Beta Finn said, shaking his head in disbelief. “I mean, we all understand why her brother had no choice but to hand her power-it was out of necessity. But you? You did it purely out of love. Even knowing she might move on with someone else, you still entrusted her with everything-your pack, your legacy." Finn sat across from Kane inside the dimly lit tent. The frigid night air seeped through the forest, and the absence of Delta Derek, who had yet to return from the Nightfall Pack, added an uneasy tension to the atmosphere.
The camp had been set up near the edge of the forest, close to a small village. Though Kane had claimed victory and taken over the pack, he wasn't in a position to celebrate. The villagers, however, had been surprisingly supportive. They'd provided clothing, food, and supplies for Kane and his fighters, grateful for his leadership. Their previous Alpha had done nothing to improve their lives, leaving them in poverty. To them, Kane was a beacon of hope, despite his own failing health.

Finn shifted uncomfortably before standing up abruptly. Kane's eyes fluttered open, catching the Beta moving toward the tent's exit.
"Where are you going?" Kane rasped, his voice weak but laced with curiosity.
Finn paused, glancing over his shoulder. "I'll be back soon." "Is something wrong?" Kane asked, struggling to sit up. "Have they attacked at this hour?" Finn shook his head, his voice calm but hurried. "Relax, Kane. I think Derek might be back. Letcheck." Kane nodded weakly and leaned back, closing his eyes once more. The pain was relentless, gnawing at him with each breath. He didn't let his officials see the full extent of his suffering, knowing they needed their strength for the battles ahead. Tomorrow, another fight awaited them, and he couldn't let the pack falter-not now. Even if his death was unavoidable, Kane trusted that Selene would be strong enough to carry the pack forward. He had seen her power firsthand in the previous war.
But then, something changed. A scent drifted into the tent, faint at first but unmistakable. It reached his nostrils and sent a jolt through his weakened body. His wolf stirred, restless and alert. Kane's eyes snapped open, glowing faintly red for a brief moment as the scent grew stronger.
His heart pounded as he scanned the tent. The dim light from the hurricane lamp flickered, casting shadows on the thick fabric walls. Outside, the forest was cloaked in darkness, offering no clarity about what-or who-was approaching. Kane tried to rise, his muscles straining, but before he could move, the flap of the tent shifted. The silhouette of a massive wolf appeared in the entrance. Kane's breath hitched as his eyes adjusted to the figure. The wolf stepped inside, its black fur shimmering faintly in the low light. Its dark blue eyes locked onto him, intense and unyielding.
