    Selene searched Kane''s eyes, hoping for a spark of excitement, but instead, she found something unreadable. It made her chest tighten, and doubt crept into her mind.


    "What if I am?” she asked quietly, her voice tinged with uncertainty.


    Kane gently brushed his fingers through her hair. His response was calm but carried a weight that made her stomach sink.


    "Just from the way you asked that, I can guess the answer is no," he said, exhaling as if relieved.


    Selene''s lips parted slightly in surprise. She didn''t miss the subtle sigh that escaped him, as though he had been hoping for exactly that answer.


    Before she could respond, Luna''s excited voice broke the tension.


    "Leo opened his eyes!" she eximed, her pitch higher than usual.


    Both Kane and Selene immediately turned toward their son. Leo''s eyelids fluttered, and he blinked as if adjusting to the light in the room.


    They rushed to his side, sitting on the edge of the bed. Selene gently took Leo''s small hand in hers, rubbing it softly.


    "My sweet boy, how are you feeling?" she asked tenderly, her voice full of


    concern.


    Leo''s gaze met hers, and in a faint, almost inaudible voice, he whispered, "Mommy, it hurts."


    Though quiet, his words were clear to both Selene and Kane, their heightened Alpha senses catching every syble.


    Selene felt her heart clench as tears welled up in her eyes. She leaned closer, her voice soothing.


    "Where does it hurt, baby? Tell Mommy, and I''ll make it better."


    Kane moved in, his face calm but focused as he looked directly into Leo''s eyes.


    "Is it your head?" Kane asked softly. "Uncle Storm is bringing your medicine soon; you''ll feel better, I promise."


    her


    Leo''s lips pressed into a thin line, his little face determined. He was clearly trying to show his that he was strong. Selene knew why. Kane''s training sessions often started with the same words: "No matter how much something hurts, never let others see your weakness. They''ll assume you''re


    incapable."


    Selene''s fingers brushed through Leo''s hair, and she leaned down to kiss his warm forehead.


    "You''re going to be just fine, my love," she murmured, her tone full of quiet confidence.


    Her words seemed tofort Leo, giving him just a little strength. Across the bed, Luna''s eyes filled with tears as she watched her brother trembling under the nkets. The sight of him like this made her cry softly.


    Not long after, Gamma Storm entered the room, the sound of his footsteps drawing Kane''s attention. Storm immediately bowed his head in respect.

    "Alpha," he greeted firmly.

    Kane nced at the medicine in Storm''s hands and motioned for him to give it to Selene.


    Storm stepped forward, handing the small bottle to her.


    Selene wasted no time, quickly administering the medicine the doctor had prescribed for Leo. She watched closely as her son swallowed it, her worry easing just slightly with the hope that it would soon help.


    Storm lingered for a moment, standing by, before leaving the room quietly. Kane, however, stayed rooted in ce, never once moving from Leo''s side. His protective nature wouldn''t allow it.


    The night dragged on, feeling endless as they waited for Leo''s fever to break. Selene kept a constant vigil, her fingers running softly through his hair, her eyes never leaving him. Kane leaned back against the headboard, holding Luna, who had fallen asleep on his chest.


    Finally, after what felt like hours, Selene noticed the heat in Leo''s little body starting to fade. Relief washed over her, and she exhaled deeply.


    "He''s strong, Selene," Kane said, his voice breaking the silence. "He''s your son. Don''t worry so much about him."


    She turned her head to look at him, her brows raising slightly. "Hmm? My son? Not yours?"


    Kane chuckled softly, ncing down at Luna in his arms. "Of course, he''s mine too. But he has your eyes, your strength, and your powers. I''ll never forget how his mother stood by me when I was on the brink of death in the war."


    Selene smiled at him, her heart swelling at the memory. "Kane, I''d do anything for you," she said sincerely.


    Kane shifted closer, still cradling Luna, and pressed a gentle kiss to Selene''s forehead. The simple ge sture made her cheeks flush.


    She nced at their twins, her voice soft as she murmured, "Maybe someday, we''ll have another-"


    "No."


    Kane cut her off abruptly, catching herpletely off guard. She turned to him, her expression confused.


    "What?" she asked, unsure if she had heard him correctly.


    Kane''s gaze rested on the twins, his face calm but firm. "We don''t need another child, Selene. We''re happy with the twins. This is enough."
