Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Too Late

"Are you okay?"

Truthfully, no. Though Inez was completely fine physically, her body was aching as if it had been run over by a bus. Every nerve in her body was pulsating, and her head was throbbing like she had spent the night breathing booze.

Something that Inez had never done. She liked drinking, but she was also scared that she would end up telling the people around her that she was part siren.

Because of this very reason, she had never drunk a single drop of liquor when she was with someone or somewhere outside. Why? Because sirens were hated and despised for their powers and abilities that had nothing to do with strength.

Shifters respected the strong and the powerful, while the sirens relied on their beauty and charm to bring the shifters to their knees. In the eyes of shifters, sirens were weak, and they despised weakness.

There was also a small problem that sirens were connected to water and shifters didn’t like water.

But as much as they hated sirens, shifters were also attracted to their power of healing. Siren’s tears could be used to bring even the dead back to life. Because of this, many shifters tried to use their overwhelming strength to imprison sirens and make them their slaves.

Inez didn’t want a life similar to that; thus, she had hidden her secret from the pack. She didn’t want to be locked up and forced to cry every day. They would hope that one day she would be able to cry tears of siren.

And Inez didn’t know much about the lives of slaves, but she didn’t fancy one.

She had also held back from running away from the pack, even though she was treated like shit. Her packmates didn’t trust her; her mate tormented her for a woman who was not even as good as the toothpick that Inez used, and her mother only saw her as a quick and easy way for her son’s inevitable success.

But how was she supposed to stay there any longer when her mate had humiliated her in the worst way possible? Not to mention the pain that he had given her wasn’t something that Mia was going to forget in a hurry.

After what Dominic had done to her, Inez was sure that she would never be able to trust men, especially Alpha men in general. She could still hear his moans and groans, which made bile rise in her throat again.

"Here," Killian handed her a trash can, which Inez took at once. She hurled whatever was left in her stomach before wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.

"How long was I out?" she asked. Looking at the golden and orangish glow outside the window, she was sure that she had been knocked out cold for more than just a few hours.

"For twenty hours," came the prompt reply.
