Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 9: Not a moment of peace

"Well, you should have expected this after what happened yesterday," said Cecil. Though she looked at Inez with pity in her eyes, that was her limit of sympathy, and Inez didn’t blame her. After all, the last time someone helped her in the pack, they were brutally mutilated by Tao.

The poor guy had to stay in bed for more than two months, and that was how everyone in the pack got the memo. No one was allowed to help Inez and if they dared to show mercy on her, then they would be the ones suffering for it.

Ever since then, no one dared to show even an ounce of kindness to Inez and preferred to be just an onlooker.

Inez closed her eyes and breathed in and out. She wanted to calm down and think rationally but she couldn’t. Her wolf was already in pain; she didn’t even get enough time to lick her wounds and heal but before Inez could even think of a way to bring peace to her wolf, Dominic came up with another way to torment her.

After another failed attempt to calm herself down, Inez shook her head and told Cecil, "Tell him that I am not doing it."

With what happened last night, Inez thought that Dominic would be done tormenting her. He had not just rejected her; he had destroyed a piece of her soul. It should have been enough, but apparently it wasn’t.

"Are you sure?" Cecil asked as she raised her brows. "Making this decision will bring you pain in the long run. He is not going to like it."

"Well, he has to deal with it," Inez bristled. "I have enough mess in my hands; maybe if he asked his sweetheart to do her job instead of paying her for strutting around in those slutty lingeries that she calls dresses, I will have enough time to meet with Alpha Sokolov."

Inez was not exaggerating. When Tao and Dominic asked her to join their company, she had agreed in a heartbeat, all because she thought that they had moved past whatever bullshit that they were going through.
