Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 149

Chapter 149: Ajax’s teasing

"Lyla! Lyla!"

At first, Inez didn’t stop because she didn’t register that someone was calling her. It was only when Jules reached out and caught her by her elbow that she realised that the woman was calling her.

"Are you angry at me?" Jules asked nervously. She had been calling Inez for a while now, and with the woman ignoring her, she just couldn’t help but wonder if the woman was angry at her. Jules had to admit that her sister was truly rude to Inez, and if she were in her shoes, then she too would have been furious with her.

Inez pursed her lips. She shook her head and said to her, "I am not angry, but I think it will be better if we discuss what happened earlier."

When Jules noticed her serious expression, she became even more worried. She asked, "Is everything alright?"

"I appreciate that you are trying to befriend me, but" Inez sucked in a breath and continued speaking, "You should be well aware that your cousin doesn’t seem to like the company that you are keeping. The pure-blooded shifters have always looked down on latents; I think you should look for someone whose company would be appreciated by your family. For your own benefit and peace." And hers as well.

Inez didn’t want to be pulled into the murky waters. If Jules were one of the last dragons, then getting close to her was nothing less than walking down a rickety bridge.

"But I like you," said Jules as if she couldn’t understand what Inez was trying to tell her. "Since the day I came to this city, no one has been nice to me; you are the only one who truly cared for me. Usually, people only care about me because they want something from me, but you are the only person who took care of me without anything in exchange."

Inez simply stared at the woman because this was the first time someone had told her that they would want to become friends with her after Dominic ruined her life.

When Inez didn’t say anything in response, Jules was slightly hurt by her lack of reaction. She thought that Inez would agree with her almost at once, but when she didn’t, her heart couldn’t help but feel a bit twinged with pain.

Was it that hard to become friends with her?

She then said to Inez, "It is okay, if you don’t want to." After she finished speaking, she lowered her head.

Inez looked at the woman whose hands were tightly clenched at her sides. She said, "I have nothing against becoming your friend." Apart from Selene, no one had truly tried to become her friend, and Inez had no idea what to make of the current situation. "However, I don’t think your family will be happy if you become friends with me. And not only them, but even the people whom you know will talk behind your back. Do you think you can withstand all of that?"

Jules pursed her lips as she tried to digest Inez’s words.

Ajax raised the box in his hands and replied, "Got some crabs. I thought you would like some." freēwēbnovel.com
