Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 17: Won’t let us down

"You are willing?" Inez took a double take. She didn’t honestly believe that Scarlet would take this risk for her. No matter how good their relationship was, if she helped her run away, things could become messy for her.

Scarlet was a passionate shifter who had her own codes on which she functioned. She also lived a quirky yet quiet life and Inez didn’t want to mess it up for her.

Her sister rolled her eyes at her and threw the cotton ball that was now a glaring shade of red. "Of course, I am willing, and yes, I know the risks of helping you," she added when she saw Inez open her mouth to say something, most probably to warn her of the things that could happen after she helped her escape.

But Scarlet was willing to take that chance because Inez living a life like that of a punching bag was not acceptable to her. Since she was a child, she had been out of tune with the rest of the female shifters. She didn’t do frilly dresses and hooking up with high-ranking shifter males, which often made her mother wonder if she had carried the wrong child back.

It was Inez who gave her the confidence and told her that she could do whatever she wanted because it was her own life. And not once had Inez subtly delivered a backhanded comment to her with the attitude of—Oh, I am doing it for your own good.

"You know better than anyone that living here will only break you even further. Those men, I don’t know what’s wrong with them but they will not stop Nessie. I told you this three years ago and I will tell this again to you, I would rather have you live somewhere far from here than see you broken and dead in a casket."

Scarlet stared at her with anger and concern vibrating from her. She stated, "I know the risks and I don’t give a flying fuck about them because you matter more. If getting whipped one or two times gives me the fucking relief that my sister is out of there, somewhere, and is freaking alive and living her own life—then I will take it."
