Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108: Past And Present

"Are you upset?"

Inez heard Killian ask as the two of them stepped out of Ally’s lodge. He had punished Ally with the cleaning duty to take care of the pack’s training room. From what Selene told her, that place was no different from a ground where piles of trash were thrown.

According to Selene, the training rooms were splattered with blood all over the walls, floor and even the roof. Sometimes, when the lycans went too feral, they would end up maiming someone, leading to flesh and bones being stuck all over that place.

’A butcherhouse will be cleaner than that place,’ she told her while holding her hand and patting it soothingly. ’You might think that Kill let her off easily by handing her cleaning duty, but the truth is that many people would rather get hanged upside down than clean that place.’

’True that,’ a grumpy Laxus chimed from behind Selene, and something told Inez that he, too, had been given the same punishment at some point.

She knew that Selene told her this because she felt bad about what happened to Inez, but honestly, she didn’t even care about it. Others might believe otherwise, but Inez truly felt nothing.

"No," she replied and when the man beside her raised a quirky brow, she raised her hands in the air and said to him, "I am speaking the truth. I am not upset; compared to the things that Eve accused me of, this was nothing but a pretty, cute attempt in my eyes."

She paused and added, "In fact, if Ally had been cruel enough, like getting a serious injury or something of the sort, then I would have no case to battle. It’s a good thing that she is not smart enough."

Killian arched his brows. He questioned, "Did Eve do that a lot? Put the blame on you for the injuries that she got herself?"

"You believe me?" Inez asked, sounding quite surprised.

"I think it’s quite clear," Killian hummed with a pondering look on his face. "You are not the kind of person who would lie about something that you didn’t do. Just now, I felt it through the pack bond, and so would have the rest, which is why no one pushed you for an answer."

"You were hiding something, but you certainly didn’t tell a lie." He paused and asked, "Was it Ally who put the mamba in your lodge?"

"She did." Inez agreed without hiding.

Killian turned silent. His grandmother did tell him that sirens could control animals; they could even speak to them if they were powerful sirens. But he believed that these were nothing but rumours, but now that an actual siren had confirmed the truth— frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

The lycans didn’t want her, and she didn’t want to fit in either. She was not going to put more meaningless efforts into something that was doomed to fail. Now she was only going to live her life her own way, a way that would not bring her pain.

Killian followed Inez up the stairs and explained, "Lycas are closely knit since they are born. It’s not in their nature to accept a stranger who didn’t grow in their pack. I know that their actions are a bit rude, but they are trying." At least none of them had tried to actively chase after Inez and feed on her flesh and bones.

Killian knew that it was due to his commands, but he was nonetheless proud of his lycans, who were doing a great job. At least they listened to him when it mattered the most.

Inez paused and turned to look at him. She didn’t say anything and just stared, which was enough to verbalise all the curses that she wanted to hurl his way, but held on. A good thing, too, because Killian wondered what others would think if they saw their alpha being cursed at by a latent.

Upon reaching the door, Killian watched Inez take out a key that she was carrying in her pocket and twist it around in the lock. She then turned to look at him and questioned, "Do you want to come inside for a midnight snack or something?"

"Sure," Killian replied. He knew that the woman was being just polite, but he was going to pretend that he didn’t understand the undertone as he stepped right inside the lodge.
