Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 22: Dumb Dumb Dummy

"Is it that obvious?" Killian chuckled softly. He appreciated women who were not only smart but also straightforward. What surprised him was that even his beast liked Inez. Though his beast didn’t show any kind of dislike when it came to Killian’s choice of women, he had never shown any attention to them either.

This was the first time his beast was paying rapt attention to a female, and that too to the point where he was drinking in her every move. Even her smallest frown made his beast peel his lips in appreciation.

The two of them knew that Inez was not a dominant shifter. Her scent made it clear. However, she still held his gaze with confidence and looked at him with annoyance that was as clear as the day. It wasn’t every day female shifters called him out on his bullshit.

"Very," she responded in a clear and crisp voice. From her glare, it was clear that she was not happy with his response.

"You seem unhappy, Miss Sinclair?" he calmly remarked and that only made the woman even more angry. Her spine straightened up and subtle vibes started to ooze from her skin as she gave him a smile. Which was most probably her fakest smile.

"Of course not," Inez gritted out through her teeth. "How can I be angry at someone who knew from the start that he was not interested in signing a contract but still agreed with the meeting that pushed workers like me...haha... To work overtime? When this certain someone could have said a simple—no? So , no, Alpha Sokolov. I am not at all angry."

She clenched her fingers on her lap when she recalled the beatings she received yesterday. Dominic and his lackeys treated her worse than a criminal tied to the torture chair for this meeting. A meeting that was nothing but a farce? If this man had said that he wasn’t interested from the start, then would she have been beaten like a dog on the street?

not really that naive. The world is not a kind place. You will meet with all kinds of people, some rude, some problematic and some who are right down arseholes.
