Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 178: Not anymore (2)

Killian felt something get lodged in his throat. He wanted to tell her that he was only doing it for her safety, but

when he noticed the trace of vulnerability in her eyes, he knew that he had done sreally heavy damage to

her.

At once, he thought about how Inez had to live under the close scrutiny in her previous pack and all of a sudden

his heart felt a bit choked up. He was one stupid bastard.

"... am sorry." he lowered his head and apologised, realising that he might have crossed a line without knowing

Inez looked at him through her lashes before nodding. "You should be."

"Was he a lone shifter?" Killian asked Ajax, who gave him a nod and then said to him, "He was. | made him

confess his identity. He went by the nBrendan."

"Never heard of him." Killian did a quick check of the list of names that he had in his mind, the lone hunters with

whom his mother had been in talk in the past, but never used.

However, he didn’t waste his tworrying about useless things because there were more pressing matters that

he needed to worry about. Like —

"The one thing that strikesas ominous is that the man knew where to find you," said Killian as he turned his

head around and looked at Inez, who was sitting on the bed upright with her back against the bed’s headboard.

"It was as if he knew that you were going to the swimming pool."

Inez, however, shook her head and said, "It must be a coincidence. | made the decision to go to the swimming

pool randomly. | think that the shifter snuck into the main lodge to gather information, but | was unfortunate

enough to walk into the swimming pool area and fell right into his grasp."

"It wouldn't have happened if there were no cracks and someone had worked faster, especially with the

continuous attacks," clipped Killian, his voice loud enough to carry his intense rage.

Laxus winced. "We are doing everything that we can; don’t worry, we will fix every crack in the territory. | have

given the orders to the submissive lycans to even fix the cracked and uneven doorjambs. Alright? Even the

smallest cracks will be filled this taround, such that there will be no repetition of such an attack."

However, that was not enough for Killian. He wanted to give Laxus a grilling session, but he knew that Inez

needed him more. He then turned to look at the rest of the pack and said to them, "You can all leave. | am with

her."

"I—" Ajax began, but quieted down when Killian gave him a look. Good.

Good. he wasn’t in the mood to get into a quarrel with Ajax.

The pack filed out of the room without saying another word.

Selene was the only one who lingered behind and said to Inez, "If you feel unwell, send word. | will call the

healers again."

"Thank you." Inez nodded at the woman, who smiled and then allowed Laxus to wheel her out of the room.

Killian walked up to the door and closed it, and when he turned around to look at Inez, the woman had lain back

down on the bed. With her face hard and her body stiff, she had her eyes closed. She didn’t even look at him as

she breathed through her mouth, most probably her own way to calm her anger down.

He slowly crossed to her, invading her personal space and then sat down on the bed. Reaching out, he skimmed

his knuckles on her cheek. "Open your eyes, Bubbles."

What he had never expected was that

Her siren must have sensed that there was something different about him. Maybe she knew that he was here to

tell Inez that he wanted something more. Something more real with her, rather than just waiting and watching

where it was going to go.

Thus, she was telling him that she was paying attention to him and knew what he was playing at. The only good

thing was that she was not pushing him away.

"I thought you were supposed to be staying away from me," said Inez as she looked at him warily.

He slid his hand down and then brushed the pad of his thumb against her lips. He said to her, "I did try to... But

didn’t like it. The next time, | would like to lose an inch of my skin rather than stay away from you." He leaned

down and nuzzled his face in the crook of her neck.

As her scent filled his lungs, he wished he could bury himself deep in her, but he knew that she needed to rest.

She was highly strung and was still riding the adrenaline due to the attack.
