Chapter 58: Lyra And Killian (2)
That would explain why Killian went so rigid and weird when she talked about Lyra with him. As someone who
was mourning her mate even though he was alive, Inez could, to sdegree, understand his pain.
"She was your sister?" Inez asked, picking up another detail that Nyx had let slide.
The woman nodded with a saddened sigh. "That's whyand Fenric were so unfriendly towards you. We
thought that Killian had brought another woman to discredit and embarrass the memories of our sister. Though
we are not against him moving on—he should at least find someone stable and imprint on her."
She paused and sighed heavily. "We are not against him imprinting but by sleeping with different women—" she
trailed off, not finishing her sentence but Inez understood what Nyx wanted to tell her.
"You think he is mocking the memory of your sister?" Inez sounded out and the woman smiled at her
embarrassingly.
"I know it feels a bit stupid but we think that Lyra deserved more," Nyx sighed as she ran a hand through her
hair. They were now walking down a cobblestone path that led to another lodge. "She gave Kill everything that
she could; she even trusted him when no one else did and you know what he did?"
"What?"
"He hit her." Nyx’s eyes flashed with anger as she gritted out.
"What!?" Inez didn’t take Nyx’s word for it but she was still surprised by what she had told her. Because what
Nyx said was not a light-hearted comment, it was a really serious accusation. A mate was the biggest gift the
moon goddess gave to a shifter. To hurt and embarrass much less hit him or her was something that Inez could
never think of doing, not that it mattered for her mate had already rejected her.
"You don’t have to believe me," Nyx remarked when she saw the hint of disbelief on her face. "My sister and
Killian sensed that they were mates when they turned eighteen, like most of the shifters. Naturally, we thought
everything was going to end well—that was until we saw Lyra returning hwith all kinds of bruises."

was going on." Nyx shook her head and took a deep breath before saying, "We tried to confront Kill but Lyra
stopped us, saying that it helped him. At twenty we moved away from our old pack as things got tough and Lyra
was with Kill at every step but then things got out of control and..." She trailed off once again.
Her eyes were blurry with tears as she finished off, "And she died."
She raised her head and took a deep look at Inez. "I am not telling you these things because | am trying to sow
discord between you or Kill. | am just putting you on guard—Kill’s not sane and you have long heard of this."
"So make sure you are careful. Once you are done, get out of here; the last thing you want is catching the
attention of that man."
Nyx then turned on her heel, making her way through the cobblestone path, leaving Inez even more confused
than she already was when she cto this pack.
While Inez was lost in her thoughts, Nyx made her way back to her lodge; her eyes flickered slightly when she
heard her mother sobbing once again. She sighed and pushed open the door before saying to her mother, "And
what's the point of crying like this now that things have cto this point?"
"You just don’t miss your sister like | do." Morrineth wiped her eyes as she cleaned the tears off her cheeks. She
said to Nyx, "It’s bad enough that Kill keeps bringing all kinds of hussies to the pack every now and then but he
just has to bring that one." Morrineth almost spat on the floor when she recalled Inez’s beautiful face.
"I have to say that his taste has gone down the ruins ever since my Lyra was gone," Morrineth said bitterly. "He is
just going around bringing anyone with a pretty face, while my Lyra was not only beautiful but also smart and
witty."
Fenric stayed quiet. He didn’t refuse what his mother was saying, which meant that he silently agreed with her in
his heart.
Nyx, on the other hand, sighed and sat down on the couch. Discussing Lyra was not on her mind. Thus, she
changed the topic and said to her mother, "Did you hear that Debby ran away with a rogue?"

"Oh, please." Morrineth’s aim turned to Inez as she scolded her. "I will eat my kettle if that woman was here to
