Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 226: The Girls Code (2)

Inez stared at the woman whose cheeks were getting redder by the minute and looked around. She reached out

and held onto Jules’s arm before saying to her, "Let's get you seated, shall we? | will then try to find your brother-

in-law." She wondered if she could find Peter in the crowd with people mingling, dancing and grinding against

one another. However, she had to unless she wanted Jules to lose control and set the entire place on fire.

Literally.

Jules allowed Inez to steer her down the ballroom to a silent corner. She was still sobbing as she spoke to Inez in

a low voice, "I mean... am | not a good person? Can't they look at me? Just me? But they don’t all care about me.

Not Jules but Jules Drakos. So that’s what | give them, but then they say that | am too arrogant. Isn't it simply

unfair? | am giving you what you want from me."

"Maybe you need to look for your own people," suggested Inez as she soothingly patted the sobbing woman in

her arms. She spoke to her in what she thought was a kind voice and said to the woman, "You are looking for

comfort in the wrong people. What you need is someone who will understand you, not someone who will drag

you down for their own satisfaction just because they are jealous."

"Jealous?" As Inez deposited Jules on one of the chairs, the woman raised her head and looked at her in

confusion. "They are jealous of me? Why would they? Of how epic a failure | am as the only princess and the

pure-blooded daughter of the dragon king?"

Inez glanced at the woman in the chair with a frown on her face. She shook her head and then said to her, "No.

They are jealous because you are rare and different. These women know that even if you were unhinged, men

would still flock to you because you are what you are. They hate you for that because they could never attract

the attention of men like you can."

She was right, of course. As much as Jules would like to pretend that she couldn't see the men eyeing her like

she was a piece of juicy steak, the truth was that everywhere she went, men would look at her. Even now, when

Inez was helping her, she could feel the gazes of multiple men staring at them. They didn’t make a move on

Jules, nor did they cclose to her. Maybe it had something to do with her —cany closer and I will rip your

fucking dick off—glare.

But they had stared at Jules. Hoping for a chance to mark her if Inez were to leave her alone.

Something she won't do with these men waiting for their chance.

Inez knew what might happen if she were to walk away, which was why she took a seat next to the sobbing

Jules.

She turned her head and saw Nyx dancing with one of the enforcers. When the light moved a little, she realised

that it was Ajax. And a little further from them stood Eve, and to Inez’s delight, the woman seemed to be

quarrelling with Dominic. Most probably, she wanted to drag the man to the dance floor, but Dominic seemed to

be point-blankly refusing.

Not a surprise there.

Dominic was not much of a dancer, and he had always avoided the dance floor. Of course, there was a time

when the two—

Inez closed that thought right then and there. She didn’t want to recall the times when she was with Dominic. Or

how the two of them had stood against one another. How that man had made her cwith just his knee and

had whispered hotly in her ears about how much he wanted her. Those days were gone and they were not

coming back, and nor was she going to think about it because it wouldn't be fair to Killian.

She didn’t know where things between her and him were going, but she was going to stay true to him till then—

A zap. A sudden burst of energy, and Inez turned to look around the ballroom. Just now, she was certain that

someone had looked at her, and not just a fleeting glance, but a glance that was filled with the intent to kill. It

was strong enough to make the siren in her jump.

If not for Jules sitting next to her, Inez would have gone around scouting the perimeter and found the source of

this threat and dealt with it. The fact that there was someone out there looking and waiting to kill her while she

sat here and did nothing did not sit fucking right with her.

However, she couldn't leave. Not when the men were staring at Jules and her, all of them hoping for the same

thing, for her to leave.

Inez knew that shifters were different from humans. Their primal instincts of power and authority toppled almost

everything. If claiming Jules was what would give them what they wanted, Inez was certain that these men

would stop at nothing. But was she going to stay put and let the danger or risk or maybe worse walk around? No,

she wouldn't.

Just as she was about to connect

someone in the pack link, a man

and brimming with confidence. Most

probably, it had something to do with

"l do."

"What?" the man stared at her as if he couldn't believe that Inez had rejected him outright.
