Chapter 24: Too Late

"Are you okay?"

Truthfully, no. Though Inez was completely fine physically, her body was aching as if it had been run over by a bus. Every nerve in her body was pulsating, and her head was throbbing like she had spent the night breathing booze.

Something that Inez had never done. She liked drinking, but she was also scared that she would end up telling the people around her that she was part siren.

Because of this very reason, she had never drunk a single drop of liquor when she was with someone or somewhere outside. Why? Because sirens were hated and despised for their powers and abilities that had nothing to do with strength.

Shifters respected the strong and the powerful, while the sirens relied on their beauty and charm to bring the shifters to their knees. In the eyes of shifters, sirens were weak, and they despised weakness.

There was also a small problem that sirens were connected to water and shifters didn’t like water.

But as much as they hated sirens, shifters were also attracted to their power of healing. Siren’s tears could be used to bring even the dead back to life. Because of this, many shifters tried to use their overwhelming strength to imprison sirens and make them their slaves.

Inez didn’t want a life similar to that; thus, she had hidden her secret from the pack. She didn’t want to be locked up and forced to cry every day. They would hope that one day she would be able to cry tears of siren.
