Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 191

Chapter 191: An Old Friend

Inez watched Scarlet leave and sighed in relief when she saw that the woman had stopped putting up with Evelyn’s bullshit. She knew Evelyn and Inez were more than half certain that Dominic might not have even agreed to this stupid plan of hers.

"Lyra, what do you think?"

Inez heard Jules speak and turned to look at the woman who was now holding a lavender A-line dress. "Do you think it will suit me?"

"I think red will suit you more," stated Inez right away when she saw the lavender dress clashing against Jules’s red hair.

"This miss is right, Miss Jules," said Tracy with a smile on her lips. "You need something that will bring more flair to your personality. I believe such a light colour cannot do that."

Jules pursed her lips as she placed the dress against her body and hummed softly. "You are right; it’s too simple for me. I will pick something else."

While Jules went around picking another dress, Inez walked over to where Selene was rummaging through the many dresses put on display. Her eyes were shining like those of a child who had seen the world for the first time.

"I never knew that there were so many dresses – and that too of so many colours."

Her words brought a frown to Inez’s face as she turned to look at Laxus, who was clenching his jaw hard. Upon noticing her gaze, he told her, "Sel stopped going outside after her accident. Ever since then, she has been relying on Nyx to bring in the dresses, and, well, things hadn’t been as they were."

Inez pursed her lips. She didn’t say anything as she turned her head around and looked at Selene, who had picked a pastel forest dress and was now being helped by the assistant to put it on.

"Thank you."

Laxus said those words so quietly that Inez was sure that she had misheard him. She turned around and looked at the man beside her before questioning, "What do you mean by thank you? I didn’t do anything."

The man only smiled at her without saying anything, which only made Inez even more confused.

"What?"

"You gave hope to her." Laxus glanced at Selene, who had disappeared behind the curtains. "While Nyx has been trying to help Sel, her actions and words have caused Sel to become more and more introverted. I don’t usually know how friendship between women works, but it seems like you are a much better friend to Selene than Nyx."

Inez parted her lips but then thought against it. She didn’t say anything because Inez had long learnt her lesson of not saying what was in her heart out loud. Who knows when what she said would end up in the ears that she didn’t want to hear?
