Chapter 37: Mates Meets Sub

Elena POV:

After a bit of exploration around Kane's ridiculously pristine mansion. I decided I couldn't sit around waiting for him to return. Staying put wasn't exactly in my nature, especially with so many questions swirling around in my mind. I hated Kane… obviously. But that kiss, the way he looked at me—I needed some air, some space. Maybe even a distraction.

So, when I found myself wandering outside, I wasn't exactly shocked. This place was huge, more like a small city than a pack territory.

As I stepped outside, I took in the sheer size of the area. It looked more like a luxurious neighborhood than the rugged pack grounds I was used to. His house was one of several scattered along a well-manicured stretch, almost like an upscale estate. And down the road, there was an actual highway bustling with cars. On the other side of the road, a dense forest rose up, lending a bit of nature to this strange, hybrid world of modernity and wilderness.
