Chapter 121: Suspicions Cleared?

"Tsk, I thought that as an alpha, you would have a brain better than others. Why are you snarling and spitting in front of my sister? Is she not allowed to buy the same scent as your mate?" Killian mocked Dominic. His lips curled up in mirth, and he said to him, "Just because you smelled the same scent, you almost pounced on my sister? I will suggest that you go and get your head treated, Alpha Cherith. Or it wouldn’t take long for you to be caught and thrown into prison for molesting female shifters."

Dominic eyed him carefully as if he were trying to see the truth behind Killian’s claims, which, in Killian’s eyes, was nothing but a foolish act. Lycans could lie as easily as they could down vodka. Trying to catch a lycan when they were lying was an act simply impossible.

"I hope that you are speaking the truth," Dominic stated as he turned on his feet and swiftly headed out of the office.

His pace was quick and yet determined.

"Close the door," said Killian as he turned on his feet and headed back to his chair. He turned to look at Selene and asked, "What happened?"

"I am sorry," Selene was quick to apologise. She said to Killian, "I just came to tell you that Ally tried to attack Inez after you were gone, so I sent her to the dungeon." Selene could never understand Ally’s thought process. How could someone attack the weak or the injured? And what’s more, Inez had saved her life.

She had proven her loyalty to the pack, which meant that she was supposed to be given the same loyalty and respect as any other member.

"She did?" Killian was not even surprised as he locked the drawers of his table and straightened up.

"She did," Laxus affirmed. "She tried to slash Inez’s throat when no one was looking," he paused and added, "However, we don’t believe that it was her idea. "Ally doesn’t have the courage to do such a thing without someone leading her to do it."

Selene frowned and nodded. "That’s right; when we caught her and threw her in prison, she kept yelling that she had no idea what she was doing or how she even got close to Inez. She said that she was innocent and there was no way she would do something so foolish. And honestly, I think that she is right; for two seconds, I did think that Ally was possessed when she approached Inez just now."

When Killian heard her response, he narrowed his eyes. He glanced at Laxus and asked, "Did anyone see Inez singing the prophecy?"

"In the mall? There were a lot of people who saw her going rigid." Laxus stated with furrowed brows. His gaze met with Killian’s, and he questioned, "You think that one of the onlookers was a witch, the one behind the explosion?"

"Do I even need to make a guess? I am certain that this was the work of a witch."

And Killian’s guess was spot on.

The next day, when the council finished the investigation of the explosion of the mall, which led to the death of 45 shifters and 11 humans, along with 656 injured individuals, the news reporters stated that it was nothing but a sort of malfunction. However, the shifters knew that there was no such thing as a malfunction that could cause such a dangerous accident.
