Chapter 170: Sprinkling Salt on wound
"Molly, that will be enough. | have told you that the girl had helped us a lot with her healing powers. There is no
need for you to condemn her in such a manner. Her skills are invaluable, as without her, we would have lost a
pack member last night," maintained Edira with a growl.
"Grandmother is right," with a snarl seeping into Killian’s tone, as his beast paced back and forth because of the
rage that the two of them were feeling. "Inez had earned the respect of the pack, and you, as someone who is
not a pack member, have no right to point fingers at her."
Molly looked at him. "Oh, bet she is doing her best to show you all how important and powerful she is, but she is
helping you because she is trying to win you all over so you will let her stay here longer. Can't you see that she
is manipulating you all?"
"That's not happening," spoke Laxus in his level-headed voice. "There is simply no agenda and certainly no
manipulation. If there were, then we would have seen through her. Lycans are the best when it comes to lying
and the best when it comes to catching liars as well."
"Yes, there is!" Molly’s tone didn’t seem to invite argument, but she was quite firm with her words. "You just
cannot see it. Morrineth toldhow this woman has hoodwinked my son into doing her bidding, even though
Morrineth has warned him again and again. But my son... as foolish as he has been since he was a child, just
cannot see it!"
Inez didn’t like the patronising tone with which Molly spoke about Killian, as if he were a child who didn’t know
any better. She narrowed her eyes and questioned, "He is the alpha of the pack. | believe he didn’t manage such
a big pack out of foolishness, did he?"
Molly whipped her head to the front and glared at Inez as if she was upset that Inez had defended Killian. Her
son.
Seeing her reaction, Inez really wanted to ask Killian if he was adopted.
"See this? This is how she is trying to win all of you over."
"By stopping you from disrespecting and discrediting your son when it should have been you doing it?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAn exasperated flush crept up Molly's neck and face. She said to Inez, "You can act all you want, you slut but |
see right through you. Unlike you, who is trying to fill my son’s head with all sorts of ideas, | keep him grounded.
Now listen tohere." she raised her finger and pointed at Inez. "My son will be imprinting on no one else but
Miss Jules Drakos, a truly fantastic woman with a proper identity and background. We will no longer entertain
your foolish and evil intentions."
"So you can crawl back to whatever hellhole you have climbed out from."
She then whipped and looked at Selene. "You didn’t even tellthat this woman was staying here. How could
you not tellthe truth, Selene? | had to hear this from Morrineth." Turning her head to the front, she
questioned Killian, "Is this why you disrespected Miss Drakos? For this latent?" she spoke as if being latent was a
cursed word.
"It has nothing to do with her," Killian spoke in a steady voice. "I just don’t like that woman."
Molly scoffed. "What's there not to like? She is rich, beautiful and a pure-blooded shifter. Compared to her, she is
better in every manner."
She shot a look of pure loathing and contempt at Inez, who was half amused and half exasperated. With an
innocent blink of her eyes, she tilted her head to one side and questioned, "Did you even ask your son what he
wants?"
"Do you think that | don’t know what my son wants?"
"I don’t," Inez replied with all the honesty that she could muster. "From the second you opened your mouth, all |
could hear was how you think that Miss Jules is the right choice for this pack and Killian, but | never heard you
ask him if he thinks the same."
"It’s because | know that she is the right choice!" Molly's face, if possible, turned even redder. "He won't
understand it today, but he will one day."

Inez knew that the woman had said something wrong because the second she finished speaking, Killian’s
expression turned taut. The air around him turned cold, and so did his eyes.

Eyes practically swirling with anger, Molly turned to look at Edira. "Do you see this? He has no respect for me.
This is why | wanted to raise him by my side! Look at how he has grown up."
"Respect has to be earned," said Edira simply, "And its not like you have shown Kill any respect since he was a
child."
"He is my son! Why should | respect him?"
