Chapter 162: A Trap
"You bastard, just what do you think—"
As Finn and Levi took a step forward, Killian raised his hand and stopped the two men from attacking Noah.
Though he would have loved punching the man in the face himself, Killian wasn’t foolish enough to make a
mistake so naive. He then turned to stare at Noah, whose face was contorted with fury, and remarked casually,
"Your anger, while understandable, is not correct. Are you going to continue with this foolish goal of rounding up
all the lycans and killing them because a single lycan brought you grief?"
"You are all the same!" Noah roared. While looking at Killian, he was looking at a face that he despised and
loathed. His anger was bursting within his heart like soft poison, causing his heart to throb with pain.
Killian arched his brow. He calmly detached the hand that was holding the collar of his jacket and mused, "I don’t
know whether all the lycans are the sor not. When even the fingerprints of both hands are different for
each." With his expression blank, he continued, "And killing without evidence for crimes or for crimes that can’t
even be considered as crimes, is nothing but a massacre. What you did today was no different from killing a pair
of innocents."
"Which makes you no different from the man who took everything away from you. He took your world away, and
you ruined someone else’s. | hope you always keep that right here," he added with a pat to Noah's chest where
his heart lay.
Killian then walked away without waiting for Noah to say anything. Finn followed him, and so did Levi, but not
before bumping into the shoulders of the man.
"It was a close call," remarked Finn as he stepped out of the conference room with Killian. "If Levi hadn't been
paying attention to Norman's trails, then we could have been pushed in a corner."
Ever since the poisoning of Selene, they had been keeping an eye on the elders to find out the culprit of that
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtincident. However, till now they had yet to find the puppeteer who had bribed the lycan and almost killed Selene.
Though they didn’t find the culprit, their actions still cto fruition somehow.
Levi grunted. He was not a man of many words unless his pack or alpha was threatened.
"Continue to monitor them," said Killian while walking down the corridor. He was about to say something next,
but he was interrupted because of the ringtone of his phone. Without breaking his stride, he took his phone and
answered, "Yeah?"
"Cto the territory, quickly," said Laxus.
Hearing the urgency in the tone of his enforcer, Killian paused. His beast shot to alertness as he questioned,
"What's the matter?"
"You need to chere, | cannot explain it on the call."
"lI am coming," Killian told Laxus. He then turned to look at Finn as he returned the phone to his pocket. "Go and
tell Seth that there is an emergency in the pack. | will cto see him sother time."
Finn noticed the severity of the situation and nodded at once. He turned around on his feet and headed toward
Seth's office while Killian and Levi headed to the parking lot and drove out of the spot where they had parked the
car.
Minutes later, they arrived at the territory and strode to the main lodge, where most of the pack stood, including
Inez. His eyes flickered to hers, and he sent her a reassuring smile when the woman looked at him with concern.
He then turned to look at Laxus and questioned, "What's the problem?"
"An hour ago, a car pulled up outside the road leading to the lodge where Selene lives," replied Laxus. "It hasn't
cclose to the territory, but it's easy to notice the path that it was taking earlier; it stopped midway and
hasn’t moved since then. | took a close look at the vehicle, and there was a man inside the car. He seems to be
unconscious and foaming from his mouth. But according to Matt, there are signs of hoodwinking here."
When Killian turned to look at Matt, the man simply shrugged and stated, "That car was not present when | was
surveying the territory; it just seemed to appear as if someone had used a portal to bring that car to that spot.
And if the man was unconscious, how could he drive the car? The idea of him suddenly falling unconscious
comes off as weird to me."
"You are certain that he is not dead?" Killian asked Matt.
It was Ryder who answered, "No, we took a good look at him and he is still breathing. It’s feeble, but it’s there."
Selene hugged the soft toy in her arms, something she did when she was nervous. "Though it doesn’t seem right
toto leave an injured guy outside like that, something about this entire thing doesn’t sit well with me."
Henley, who stood at the corner, with his arms crossed, hummed. "Yeah, it looks like a trap to me. | don’t care
what anyone says."

Laxus’s eyes widened as he let out an ugly curse.
Things seemed to have gotten even more complicated.
"Is it because they failed to get our entire pack in trouble?" Edira questioned.

Killian was right, Inez told herself as she poured herself a glass of water.
"What now?" someone pushed the tricky question to the front, causing everyone to pause.
