Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81: Face off with Dominic

And there he went again. All the butterflies in her belly died that very second. She turned to look at the man and said to him, "You are still an arsehole."

"So my sister often says. Although it only happens when I get a bit overprotective of her and stop her from going out at night," replied Killian with a smile on his face.

"Are you close to Miss Selene?"

Pleased that she was willing to talk with him about his personal life, Killain said to him, "I am indeed pretty close to her. She is the only one who gets me, though Edira tries, but she has her own issues, which she has yet to get past." Going through some bad experiences made them bond together, but then again, it did leave some sour, traumatic experiences behind.

"So you have one close-knit family?" Inez asked, and she stiffened when she saw the man’s smile drop. All traces of his usual playfulness were gone, and he said to her, "Now that’s not a story you want to hear."

"When did I say that?"

"Because I know it," he stated in a matter-of-fact tone. "It’s a twisted story, and you don’t want to hear it."

Inez rolled her eyes when she heard his response. Alright, if he continued to ignore her questions, then it was going to get a bit annoying. But then again, did she really need to hear his answers and stories? Plus, it wasn’t as if Killian himself had tried to poke his nose in her issues either. He never pushed her to confide in him about her, which could be painful for her.

The rest of the journey was spent in silence, and neither of them spoke. But it wasn’t awkward or tense. The presence of the male beside her seemed to smooth her edgy nerves. However, her nerves turned ragged the second they arrived at Remi’s territory.

As they stopped at Remi’s territory, which included a bunch of cabins that were scattered all over the place. They were escorted to the main cabin by two enforcers, and inside sat Remi, along with none other than Dominic. Inez’s siren side stirred within her as she saw the man who had abandoned them. The very man who stomped on their pride and left them to lick their wounds when he should have cared and loved them.

Inez clenched her teeth tightly as she could feel them elongating, wanting to take a chunk of the man’s heart. Her siren wanted to take a bite of the heart of their ex-mate and see if he was truly as dark as they thought he was.

"Alpha Sokolov!" Remi greeted Killian with a smile on his lips. He was a dark-skinned man with striking features and a rather handsome smile but when compared to Killian, the man still fell short to various degrees.

"No reason?" Inez couldn’t help but raise her voice when she heard the shameless words of the man.

The three men turned to look at her, and Inez flushed slightly red. However, she still persisted as she said to Dominic, "I don’t think that a woman would leave her mate for no reason. I believe that there must be a reason why she left you, Alpha Cherith. If you are going to look for her, at least show some honesty."

Dominic frowned, and so did Tao, as the two men couldn’t understand why this woman was suddenly butting in on their conversation.

"Forgive her," however, before either of them could say anything, Killian spoke up. "She has a rather soft spot when it comes to women who are abandoned by their mates. She, too, was left behind by her mate, who slept with another woman and let her suffer through the agony of the entire affair. That’s the only reason she is so protective of other female shifters."

He then turned to look at Dominic with his lips twisted in a mocking sneer. "I know that you will not blame her, Alpha Cherith. After all, you have to agree that shifters who degrade and disrespect the greatest gift given to them by the moon goddess in such a manner are nothing but worse than trash."
