Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 177

Chapter 177: Not anymore

From what Nyx told her, Ajax had come to look for her just after he finished questioning the snake. Of course, the snake didn’t give them any useful information other than that he was a hired killer and someone had put forth a special request to get Inez killed. Almost the entire pack were used to Molly’s antics; thus, they didn’t even bother wasting time questioning the snake shifter and killed him

And ever since then, Ajax had been guarding her like her personal guardian. "He didn’t even go to the restroom," joked Nyx as she eyed the lycan with a hint of amusement on her face. "Said that he would rather hold it in than leave you alone."

Inez turned to look at Ajax, who was tucking the blanket around her legs. She said, "I am okay."

"Well, I am not. So let me stay a bit longer." Ajax sat down on the small sofa in the room. "Do you want to drink more water?"

"No, thanks," Inez replied with a shake of her head. Even though she had drunk loads of water already, Inez could still taste the chlorine in her mouth. Could still breathe the scent of it. She could also remember the moment when she was dragged down by the snake shifter and water started to flood her lungs.

Even though Inez could breathe normally now, she still felt her chest burst at odd times.

If not for the healers that the pack had called for her, Inez was certain that her lungs would still be burning, and the venom in her body would have done some serious damage to her. And if not for Ajax, who came running after hearing the alarm, she would be dead by now. It was not a happy thought.

There was a knock on the door, which caused Inez’s train of thought to come to a sudden halt. Nyx took the glass from her and said, "It must be Killian. I heard him yelling through the pack bond. He is not happy," she added with a frown.

Heart jumping in her chest, Inez snapped her eyes open. Her fuming siren suddenly halted as well and turned her attention to the door, which Nyx pulled open.

Seconds later, he came striding into the bedroom, and his eyes immediately sought her. Then, without bothering to look at anyone else, he made a beeline for her as if the two of them were the only ones there. Her siren huffed inwardly but didn’t turn her attention any other way. And Inez knew that if her siren was not mad at Killian for staying away, she would have lunged to her surface the second their gazes met.

Inez, however, flinched slightly as he got close to her, as his dominance and intense vibes were pulsating around him. Killian paused when he noticed her flinch. He suppressed his alpha vibes and then walked over to the bed.

He took the spot that Nyx had vacated and then reached out to cup her cheek before kissing her on the mouth. "I came here as soon as I heard. How are you feeling?"

Inez swallowed. She didn’t know why, but for some reason, she had a feeling that there was something really different about the way Killian was looking at her. Something that made her wary, but not in a bad way. It made her tingly. "I am okay; there is nothing wrong with me, as you can already see."
