Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 42: Saving a life

"What do you usually do on weekends?" Inez’s head snapped up, and she looked at the man on the bed, whose pallor was looking worse than before. She had tried to help Killian by purchasing some medicines that humans used, but the poison of a mamba shifter was not something that could be treated with a few ointments and bandages.

She said to the man, "Save your breath and call your pack members." Inez was simply exasperated when she thought about how this man was talking about useless things when he should be worrying about his condition. What in the world was he even trying to find out by asking her what she did on the weekends?

"Just answer the question, Miss Sinclair." Killian turned his head and smiled at her with a charming look in his eyes, which would have looked better if he weren’t so close to dying. "I mean, there is no harm in telling me about your life a little, is there?"

There wasn’t, but Inez was not someone who liked to party, nor did she try to go around hooking up with other shifters, even though shifters craved having intimacy like a second breath. She was a rather boring individual.

"I like to sing." Seeing that he was still waiting for an answer, Inez let out an exasperated sigh and answered, "My mother has this piano that she only brought to make her house look a bit more elegant and posh, but she doesn’t know how to play it. So usually, I sneak into the piano room and play it once in a while."

Her mother didn’t know how to play the piano, but she also didn’t like it when Inez ’messed’ with it. Though her mother said that she was worried that Inez would ruin the piano, the truth was that Mrs Sinclair knew that playing the piano brought Inez happiness.

As a siren, music was like therapy to her but her mother, who wished to keep her siren side as downtrodden as possible, didn’t like the sight of Inez singing or playing the piano. She wished to keep Inez trapped and suppressed and away from music, such that Inez would forget the siren part of herself.
