"I am fine." Inez knew what the man was thinking. She raised her head and smiled at the man before saying to him, "This pain is nothing. I have gone through worse." And she was speaking the truth. She had gone through the worst kind of pain at the hands of Dominic when she was at the Venus pack. This was nothing compared to that; at least her shifter blood was helping her out. Even if the healing was slow, it was better than nothing.
Killian walked over to the couch and looked at her back; though the bleeding had stopped, the burns still looked just as painful as they did the last time he had seen them. "That’s the thing; you were never supposed to go through this. Not under my watch." And now that she had gone through this pain, he was going to make sure that they suffered a death worse than their time in hell.
His beast was going feral inside of him, and he wanted nothing more than to rip those witches limb from limb. Killian was on the plan with them, but not without finding the source of this trouble.
He swooped down and took Inez’s lips. Her kiss soothed his beast just enough for him to interrogate the culprits. As he pulled back, he caressed her head and said to Inez, "Wait for me."
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Selene, who read his mind.
"I will ask the healers to heal her first when they arrive; don’t worry," vowed his sister.
Satisfied, Killian accompanied Finn and Laxus, who threw the bloodied t-shirt to one side; his expression was set, and Killian knew that Laxus, just like him, was fucking livid at the witches who had put Selene in danger. They walked over to the interrogation room, which wasn’t far from the main lodge.
As he arrived at the interrogation room, he ran into Ryder.
"We have a fucking problem?" Ryder’s scowl was as dark as his expression.
"What?" Killian asked, his eyes flashing beast, he was ready to explode with rage.
"They don’t speak English; they are speaking French."
"At first, I thought that these witches were playing with us, but then I checked their IDs; they are really not from here and don’t know a word of English. They are making fools out of us."
"It’s impossible that they don’t speak the slightest bit of English," said Killian as he snapped his gaze at the two witches who were smirking. "They couldn’t have popped here without speaking about it."
"I think so too," said Ryder as he glanced at Henley, who shook his head. "But they are acting dumb, like they don’t understand us. I have no idea what to do with them; they are also doing something with their voice, which makes the translator useless."
"They must be instilling aether," Laxus narrowed his eyes and looked at the two witches. "The witches usually do that to charm their way out of tough spots."
