Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 227: She was His

The man stared at Inez, who in turn was trying her best to suppress the gleeful smile that was threatening to

break over her lips. She patted Jules on the back and turned to look at the man before quirking up a brow. She

asked, "Is there something else that you would like to say to us? Though I don’t have tto waste, | will humour

you."

"Excuse me?" The man spluttered in surprise, and Inez humoured him by shooting him a look of mock

amusement and pity.

"You are excused; now off you go," she told the man. "The next tyou see a drunk woman. You leave her

alone; don’t try to shoot your shot just because you think you can mark her."

The man stared at her, and Inez stared right back. Though she was without a wolf, she still had her siren with

her, and she clenched her fingers and willed the powers of the sea within her before putting more force in her

voice and repeated, "Go."

Only then did the man turn around on his feet and walk away. Inez watched him go and felt a wave of exhaustion

wash over her. As she was not aware of how to control her abilities and power as a siren, she used way more

aether than was necessary. Because Inez couldn't control her aether carefully, she got exhausted sooner and

more quickly every tshe used her siren skills.

Tearing her gaze away from the man who was walking away, Inez called for Ajax. She didn’t want to have him

disturbed when he was clearly having a good twith Nyx; she had no other option either. Though she knew all

the enforcers in the pack, she had shared a few words with Ajax alone. Thus, Inez felt it made sense for her to

call Ajax, as Laxus was never going to leave Selene’s side.

Inez was not used to calling anyone through the pack bond, nor had she ever used the pack bond. But she still

unblocked the channel and softly, with a rather tentative voice, called, ‘Ajax?’

His response was almost immediate.

‘Inez?’

"Yeah, it's me. There is a little thing that | need your help with. Can you cto look for me? | am near the door.”

There was a short pause, and Inez thought that she might have lost the connection with Ajax, but two seconds

later, he replied in a dazed sort of voice, 'l got it. | am coming.”

Inez heaved a sigh of relief before turning to look at Jules, who was still blabbering. At first, she was only talking

about something foolish like bubble tea, but then the topic diverted, and she was sobbing about a dog that she

found near her home, but couldn't keep because one of the guards took it away and wouldn't give it to her.

"I mean... | am his boss; why won't he listen to me?" sniffled Juels.

Inez offered her a tissue before saying to Jules, "Don’t cry. | believe that things will get better very soon."

"You are really kind for that—"

The sound of footsteps snapped her attention to the front, and Inez heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Ajax

walking over. She didn’t know, but something about his tall, burly profile was rather — how should she explain it?

Warm? Protective? Anyway, he made her feel all warm, fuzzy and safe.

He looked like a papa bear. What? He did.

"Is everything alright?" Ajax questioned as he cto a stop in front of her. His eyes darted between her and

Jules.

"I am really sorry for disturbing you, Ajax," said Inez with an apologetic tone. "But as you can see, Jules is really...

drunk. Can you take her somewhere safe? | cannot stay with her throughout the night, and she is the only pure-

blooded dragon shifter."

"Ah," understanding dawned on him, and Ajax turned to look around the ballroom. Even though the man didn’t

stare at any particular male, Inez noticed that many of the men turned their gazes away; the subtle pressure

that kept pressing on her shoulders was gone. Rude. Why didn’t they look away when she was looking at them

just now? Was her glare not as fierce as Ajax’s? Or was this smen’s thing at work?

Something she had no idea about.

"No need to bully that pretty little head of yours, Inez," said Ajax as he reached out to hold Jules. "Your glare is

more cute than fierce. So you cannot blanyone."

Inez rolled her eyes. She got to her feet and then looked at the man who was now supporting Jules. With her

eyes narrowed, she said to the man, "Don’t try to do anything that | wouldn't do."

"Oh puh—Ilease." Ajax raised his head and snorted. "I like my women to be more mature. There is no way | am

going to get into the pants of a woman whose arrogance is like that of a five-year-old."

"She is not five years old," scowled Inez.

Inez wanted to tell about this to someone, but what was she supposed to say?
