Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 118: The First Prophecy

"What do you think of this?" Selene asked as she showed Inez a baking book.

"I am afraid that I cannot help you with this, Miss Selene," replied Inez with a soft smile. She looked at the innocent woman in the wheelchair and said, "I have no idea what the two women like." And even if she did, she knew that the second Selene presented the gift as something that she chose for Edira and Morrineth, the two women would definitely refuse it.

Selene frowned. She placed the book back on the counter and said to her, "You are right; I don’t think that they will like a baking book." Though both of them liked to eat cakes, Selene wondered if her grandmother or Aunt Morrineth would bake anything.

She turned to look at the rest of the gift shop and groaned, "I just cannot understand what to get them. There are so many options; I just cannot fathom what to buy."

Laxus glanced at her. He opened his mouth but shut it close soon after.

A good decision, thought Inez, as the man had given Selene more than six suggestions and none of them had worked because the woman didn’t like any of them.

"Why don’t you buy a piece of jewellery for the two of them?" Inez suggested. She recalled how happy Evelyn was every time Dominic gifted her something expensive and shiny. Inez had no fondness for diamonds or gold, for sirens naturally felt proud of their appearance, which was prettier than any jewel.

It was inherent arrogance that she couldn’t get rid of.
