Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 228: She was His (2)

Realising that she couldn’t raise a riot without a proper reason, Inez pursed her lips and walked toward the corner from where she felt the murderous intent flood toward her. Her heels clicked on the marble floor as she slowly waded through the crowd of people, her eyes staring at the pillar that was partly hidden in the darkness.

The closer she got to the pillar, the more Inez felt like a child who was trying to head down the stairs of the basement, which was always covered in darkness. Every step that she took made her breathing go even more ragged. Her heart started to beat a little more wildly in her chest, and what was that little twitch?

As she came to a stop in front of the pillar, Inez peered behind it —

She wondered what was going on and quickly made her way to where Selene and Killian were; Inez didn’t quite believe that Selene was doing whatever she was doing willingly.

Her eyes quickly darted to the pillar behind her, but even as she walked away, the pillar looked quite normal. Cold and steady like it always was.

"You really didn’t have to push her like that," Inez heard Edira say when she neared her and Killian. "Why didn’t you stop Morrineth when she agreed with the other shifters? No matter what, Sel is not someone whom they can ask for entertainment."
