Chapter 151: Rising Misunderstandings

Inez wasn’t sure if she liked the comparison. She frowned and said to him, "What do you mean? What injured animal?"

"You are missing my point. I was just trying to say that it doesn’t seem like Kill is trying to control you, like every other alpha tries to do. It’s more like he is trying to understand and comfort you. Don’t you think that it’s good?"

Inez neither agreed nor disagreed. However, inwardly, she did admit that Killian was persistent in his own way. He was indeed trying to make an effort to know her, even if he was just trying to do it to seduce her. At least, he was not being too pushy with his actions like Dominic.

He focused on her intensely, but he didn’t corner her or try to make things difficult for her. Nor did he overwhelm her with that personality and alpha vibes. Ever since she came to this pack, he had given her enough physical and emotional space. Something that even if Inez didn’t say it out loud, she appreciated it.

Because that was what she needed after going through so much.

Inez knew that the man wanted her, but he had never forced himself on her; instead, he had lured, cajoled and tried to charm her. Killian had wanted to make her take the first step, rather than doing the opposite.

What she couldn’t understand was why he would try to compliment her at odd times. She didn’t see how even a single compliment that he had handed to her was true—especially how he went on and on about how she was adorable.

Hell, as a siren, her beauty could be anything but cute. As she was growing up, Inez had heard all kinds of compliments, but she had never heard anyone say that she was adorable. Even as a child, her mother had never told her that she was a cute child.
