Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 369

Chapter 369: Witch’s labyrinth

"Siren’s melody?" Inez’s head snapped up in surprise. She had to wonder if that was the case and whether her mother was indeed after the siren’s melody for her to lock her father up for so long. "Maybe..."

Killian didn’t move away, nor did she.

"The Silver Dawn Pack was strange."

He changed the topic so suddenly that Inez felt her head swoon. For a second, she had to stay put to wrap her head around the sudden change of topic. "What?" Though Inez was a bit confused, she knew that Killian wouldn’t bring up this topic for no reason.

"The pack that I was asked to investigate was really strange," he repeated.

"Strange...how...?"

He continued to stare at the wall in front of them. It was as if he was focused on something that Inez couldn’t quite see. The silence continued to stretch, and for a second, Inez thought that he might not have heard her clearly. But then his lips twitch. It was a simple movement, but Inez, for some reason, felt perfectly in sync with Killian, like she was attuned with every last tick of his muscles. Even his soft exhales and inhales, she noticed them too. As for the growing tension between the two of them? She didn’t even need to start on it.

It was so palpable that she could notice it with just a single glance.

No physical contact; I cannot touch him, Inez reminded herself again and again. However, as easy as it sounded when Tracy asked them to stay away from one another, Inez realised that it wasn’t as easy as she thought it was. Thinking it in her mind and doing it in reality were two different things.

She truly underestimated how intense her desire toward this man was. Especially with her siren growling inside her head, all she wanted was to press her skin against him. Wanted to feel his hands roaming on the edges of her curves, against her skin. Something inside of her—Nerina—kept telling her that pulling away was useless, and they should just forget all about the warnings that Tracy had given them.

And the way she was making these demands was not at all subtle. They were harsh. Like she was dragging her toward Killian by her hair like a rag doll. Demanding, urging her to give up and let go of herself. This strange connection was truly weird. The last time she felt like this was when she found out that Dominic was her mate. But even then, her desire never crossed that thin line where she almost forgot her rationality. It almost made her brain go awry. It was as if he could tell her that he was a mass murderer, and she was going to accept him with all his flaws and sins attached. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"So what happened there?" She asked gently. Hoping that the man would tell her the truth and wouldn’t try to hide it from her.

Somewhere she hoped that Killian hadn’t set the entire pack on fire like she hoped and expected from him, but somewhere deep down in her heart, she knew that she was asking for too much. He wouldn’t be Killian if he didn’t do that.

He leaned his head back and sighed heavily. "They are dead. But then again, they were never alive to begin with." His voice was flat and emotionless. He told her about what happened in the Silver Dawn Pack, and by the time he finished, Inez couldn’t help but shiver.

She couldn’t help but say, "You mean to say that they were already dead?"
