Chapter 12
“Really?” Jasper blinked with the innocent confusion of a pup.
He didn’t understand the adult games being played around him.
But he knew that as long as what he did could make his mother happy and earn her praise, it was a good thing.
Seraphina smiled and touched his face with fingers that carried traces of magical warmth. “Jasper, you also really want Kane to be your daddy, don’t you?”
He nodded happily, his pup instincts responding to the magical encouragement.
Seraphina’s smile grew colder, her half witch blood revealing her true nature. “So you must make sure to please Kane and make him like you more, understand?”
He nodded eagerly, his young mind already being shaped by her influence. “I will!”
Kane had just arrived at the Ravencrest Goup when his assistant, Celia Evans, approached him and said, “Alpha Ravencrest, Elder Ravencrest is waiting for you in your office.”

Elder Ravencrest laughed scornfully. “She took ten million from me to leave you back then. What’s so good about a female who forgets loyalty for profit!”

She walked out of the office, leaving Kane alone with his restless wolf.
Kane’s jaw muscles twitched, his dark brows furrowed like storm clouds.
How could he possibly regret it?
Aria got the status and protection she wanted as Lana. She definitely wouldn’t leave him.
