Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 109

Chapter 109: Past and Present (2)

Inez watched the man stroll inside her lodge as if he freaking owned the place; in a way he did but it was still weird to see him take and use that liberty so easily. But then again, lycans were known for trespassing, stealing and burglary. Compared to sneaking into her place, this may have been better for him.

She sighed, making sure that the man would be able to hear the annoyance in her voice before heading inside the lodge. The second she closed the door behind her, Inez had this urge to open it back again because his scent simply exploded even more intensely the second she closed the door. She found it hard to breathe, which led Inez to suck in another round of breath and it was a mistake.

As his scent slowly started to fill her lungs, her siren stirred. A purr crawled up her throat, but Inez pushed it down. There was no way she was going to let a lycan take her to bed, especially one who was still somewhat hung up on his ex. The last thing she needed was to get emotionally attached to a man who only wanted a quick fuck with her.

She knew men like Killian. She had seen the same affection and twisted obsession in Dominic’s eyes when he was tormenting her in the dungeons. The way he wanted to break her but still keep her alive and next to him. Inez knew that the second the man had taken her, that obsession would have disappeared. Maybe that was why she never allowed Dominic to sleep with her, even though her wolf had always been crazy about him.

She didn’t want that spark to fizzle out, only to be left with nothing but an aching hollow. However, even if she didn’t want that to happen, it did happen nonetheless, and Inez wondered if it was even worth it.

"What are you thinking about?" Killian’s question caused her to snap her head up and look at him; he was already seated at one of the chairs around the dining table. "I thought you were making me a midnight snack?"

"I said, if you want to get a midnight snack. I never said that I was going to make you one. If you want to eat, then you need to get on your feet and follow me to the kitchen." Inez was not his nanny or his maid, and she had no intention of flattering him. Especially when they were in a contractual relationship where everyone got what they wanted.

Killian arched a brow, but after realising that she was not joking, he released a long, tired sigh and got to his feet before following her to the kitchen. Inez had yet to get her salary, so she didn’t have many groceries at the moment. Peering inside the refrigerator, she realised that she only had enough to cook two plates of tomato pasta along with two bacon and cheese sandwiches with a hint of her special sauce.

Inez took the groceries out and handed Killan the tomatoes that she was holding in her hands before saying to him. "Wash them before putting them in a pot to boil."

Killian took the tomatoes from her, and Inez watched him boil them for a few good seconds. Inez thought that the man knew his way around the kitchen, but that was until she saw him squash all the tomatoes together when she asked him to peel them. Her eyes stared at the mess that Killian had made, and she was simply speechless.

"How—how did you even get this done?" She questioned while looking at the splattering on the walls, roof and the floor. She didn’t even want to begin about the aisle that looked like it had witnessed a brutal murder of the tomatoes. Because Inez was sure that even a five-year-old would never be able to do a chaos worthy of this.

"I thought I should tell you that I don’t know how to cook," began Killian. "But you looked so sexy with that prim and proper schoolteacher tone of yours that I couldn’t stop myself."

Inez simply stared at the man. It was one thing that he had caused a mess for her to clean, but now he was trying to worm his way out by using such cheesy lines?
