Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Need To Be Careful (2)

Inez sensed instantly that Madam Edira had said something wrong because the entire room turned unusually quiet. Killian, who was sitting at the head of the table, ran the tip of his tongue across the front of his teeth. He dropped the fork on the table and said, "Well, unfortunately, the head of the pack is not my brother but me, grandmother. So, you have to listen to me."

He paused before smiling cruelly. "But of course, if you miss him so much, then you are free to walk out of here."

Madam Edira parted her lips. It seemed like she wanted to say something, but after a second, she seemed to have thought things through and closed her mouth. "I never intended to say such a thing." After she finished speaking, she got to her feet and then walked out of the dining area.

Nyx shot a look of pure disappointment at Killian before saying to him, "I never thought that you would hurt Madam Edira like that, Kill. No matter what, you have at least shown enough respect to her." freewebnoveℓ.com

"What can we expect from someone who lost respect for my Lyra?" Morrineth snorted. She glanced at Killian, who seemed to be smiling, but Inez could sense that there was an undercurrent of rage under that smile. "I expected more from you, Kill; my Lyra deserved a lot more than what you are giving her."

With that, Morrineth left the dining area with her children.

Fortunately, the rest of the pack sensed that Killian was not in a good mood and didn’t bother him.

Inez, too, didn’t want to cause any more stir; thus, she silently finished her meal in a matter of a few minutes. Once she was done, she was prepared to get on her feet and run out of the dining hall, but she was stopped by Killian before she could do that.

"Miss Sinclair, wait a second."

"Do you want something from me?" Inez turned to look at Killian, who was getting on his feet as well now that he was done with his meal.

"Indeed, there is something that I want to speak to you about," Killian said, looking at her.

Inez sighed. Feeling like a child who was going to get a scolding that she didn’t deserve.

She followed Killian out of the dining area, ignoring the many gazes of the submissive wolves who lived under Killian’s wings.

"I am torn if I should applaud you for sustaining this far." Killian turned to look at her, and Inez, for the first time, felt a bit embarrassed in front of him. The smile on his lips dropped as he stated, "Or should I be surprised that you decided to pick a fight with one of my pack members on the very first day of your stay in the pack?"

"It was she who was picking a fight with me. Not the other way round—"

"Inez," Killian interrupted her from speaking any further. "Do I look like I am interested in hearing about what led to the quarrel? I am asking you whether this move of yours was a smart one. You know that they are going to antagonise you. Is it wise to fight against them?"
