Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 359

Chapter 359: Aftermath

"I am fine."

"No, you are not, but you will be," said Killian as he marched past the corridors of the council building. His voice was dangerously flat, and he didn’t seem to like the fact that his mate was hurt. Of course, he didn’t. He was fiercely protective of Inez and the fact that she was kidnapped right under his protection. Tied and thrown in prison, well, one could say that the man was an inch away from burning the council building to ashes.

Tracy could feel her lips scrunching up even with the horrible possibilities jumping up in front of her.

"I don’t know what you are thinking—alright, who am I kidding? I know exactly what you are thinking, but you’d better keep your anger suppressed," Tracy drawled. She did enjoy the lycan heir snapping and growling, but she couldn’t allow him to run amok like a feral toddler with no sense of direction. "If you burn this place down, others are bound to blame Inez. keep this in your mind and don’t act on your instincts, no matter how much you want to."

"I wasn’t going to," Killian glanced at her and gritted out. Though he said that, his expression was full of reluctance.

Finn looked like he was contemplating whether to stay with his alpha or find the nearest exit from where he could escape. His gaze kept darting to and fro at his alpha’s increasingly thunderous expression and at Inez, whose face was getting paler due to the pain and agony she was suffering from.

"You better not burn this place down." Laxus glanced at his alpha. His voice was even and firm, even though he looked like he very much wanted to bolt from here. "We don’t have enough funds to build the council another building. And we just finished building this one."

"Oh, so you have already walked down that road of embarrassment." Tracy whistled.

Killian turned and glanced at the woman, his gaze full of displeasure. "Why are you still following us?"

"Why else? I need to make sure that she doesn’t suck you dry of your life essence. When sirens get hurt, they rely on their prey to recover their strength. With how weak Inez is at the moment, there is a very good chance that her siren would try to seduce you into sleeping with her. Which, mind you, will not be good for you unless you want to die a horrible death."

Inez’s face turned red despite the loss of blood that she had suffered from, while Killian’s eyes locked onto Tracy like targeted missiles.

Inez could feel her heart pound. Trapped between embarrassment due to the words that Tracy had spoken to her and the worry of doing exactly what she said. After all, she could feel her siren stirring stronger than ever within her. She had known that her siren was capable of hurting Killian, but hearing it again made her feel—well, scared of her own powers. Of her own existence.

"I think...she is right—we shouldn’t be alone." Inez’s voice was thin; even when all she wanted was to reach out and hug Killian. Inez knew that it wasn’t quite possible, not without her swallowing the essence of the man who was holding her in his arms.

The words were weak; there was no particularly strong desire or determination within them. If anything, they sounded like a whine as if she were a toddler upset with her parent for peeling the banana in the wrong way.
