The fact that the woman had refused to obey his order should have made Dominic furious, but all he could think about was why the scent that was lingering in the room was so faint. It was as if Inez hadn’t slept in this bed last night. If she were not here, then where did she go?
"Like I said, her whereabouts are none of your business," snarled Scarlet.
Dominic, on the other hand, ignored the confused expression of his head enforcer, tracker and beta as he focused all his attention on Scarlet and said to her, "She is my mate; she will always remain my business."
That made the woman lunge for his throat. If not for the fact that Blake stopped her, that woman would have slit his throat if possible. "You goddamn motherfucking son of a bitch."
"Calm down." Blake pulled the woman back, and it was only then that Dominic noticed the tears that were swirling inside her eyes. For Scarlet to be so upset, it was clear that Inez didn’t just go on a walk around the territory.
"I will not calm down. You all took my sister away from me, you bastards. Why don’t you all fall into a ditch and die?"
And that confirmed it. Inez was gone.
"Gone? Where did she go?" Mrs. Sinclair questioned, realizing a tad bit too late that there was something more to the surface than others were letting on. She wheeled around and looked at Scarlet. She demanded, "Where did she go, Scar?"
"Somewhere far from here," Scarlet told them. "Somewhere, you all will not be able to hurt her anymore."
"Scarlet," Dominic growled. His eyes flashed wolf’s, and for the first time in years, the two of them were finally on the same page, except Dominic couldn’t feel happy about it.
He wanted to see Inez break, just like he and his mother did when Abertha died. But now that he had seen it, he didn’t taste the victory that he had been craving.
Taking a step forward, he questioned Scarlet again, "Where is she?"
"I don’t know." The woman held his stare, and if he was not panicking from within, he would have appreciated Scarlet a bit more. But he couldn’t. Not when the woman had helped Inez sneak out of the pack.
Alpha vibes started to ooze out of his skin as he stated, "You better tell me where she is or else —"
"Or else what?" Scarlet asked with a sneer. "You will drag me to hell? Well, newsflash, alpha. Watching my sister suffer under you and your minions was hell for me."
"So even if you skin me alive, I will never tell you where Nessie went."
