Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86: His and Only His (2)

Inez looked at Tao with a smile, even though she could feel her heart beating faster. She knew Tao well enough to know that just like Dominic, he was also suspicious of her identity. Inez was not surprised, as she knew that Tao was smart enough not to be fooled like others. However, she only took a moment to gather her thoughts and calm her heart before smirking.

"I think you need to get your eyes checked, mister," Inez spoke in a believable voice. "I might be many things, but I am not his mate." She tipped her chin at Dominic, whose expression was blank. "Now if you two gentlemen will excuse us—"

She had just taken a step away from the man with her arm still resting on Killian’s when Dominic lost his temper and yelled, "Get away from him."

He didn’t know why he did it or what made him do it, but he still did it. With his beast lunging to the surface, he snarled at Inez. He said to her, "Don’t touch him."

When Inez saw Dominic trying to control her, she felt both saddened and enraged. She wondered how many times she had taken this man’s bullshit too seriously for him to treat her so lightly. It was his instincts and wolf that couldn’t reject the mating pull, and despite not knowing her identity, he was so used to giving her commands that he did it on instinct.

And boy was that humiliating.

She was also a siren with pride; even if she was a half-shifter, her pride was no less than a dominant shifter’s. For Dominic to treat her so lightly, it seemed like it was she who was at fault. She let him get away with a lot of things that she shouldn’t have.

Clenching her fingers, she glared at Dominic and stated, "And why would I listen to you? Alpha Cherith, you are forgetting that I am not your mate. No matter how much I look or act like her, I will not become her."

She paused and added, "And even if I was, why does it matter? You have already rejected your mate. So even if she kisses, hugs or sleeps with another man, it shouldn’t bother you." Curling her lips into a malicious smile, she went on, "Maybe she is already in the bed of another man?"

And it happened in a flash. One second Dominic was standing in front of them, and the next second he was right in her face as Killian caught him by his throat and pushed him back.

"How dare you—"

"Your alpha is the one who made the first move; I am just retaliating," Killian told Tao, who looked positively enraged. "Even if you were to hold me accountable in the council for killing him, I would be able to get away with it. Firstly, he insulted my woman, and secondly, he attacked her. You never attack the woman of an alpha unless you have a death wish, and if you do, then you need to make sure that the said alpha is beneath you in terms of dominance."

He turned to look at Dominic, who was staring at him with a hint of burning rage in his eyes. "Unfortunately for you, I am not."

"Who is she?" Dominic instinctively felt that there was something amiss about the woman who was with Killian.
