Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 208: Lycan and Witch (2)

Silence. That was all Inez could fathom at that moment. She raised her head and looked at Killian, waiting for him to say, ’Sike, this was just a joke,’ but the man didn’t do it. He stayed quiet as he finished speaking.

"How can that be possible, Morrineth—"

"She doesn’t know shit about the kind of men she gets involved with," barked Killian. When she flinched, he stiffened and turned around to hug her. "Sorry."

"It’s alright," said Inez. She was not scared of his loss of control, just surprised. She blinked her eyes and looked up at the man before asking, "Can you please explain what you are trying to say?"

Killian sighed. He gently pushed her to the living room before pushing her down on the couch. He then sat down on the coffee table such that he could look her right in the eye; his weight caused the coffee table to groan under it, and Inez wondered if it was going to snap.

"Morrineth had always been what you would call ’free-minded," said Killian. He was barely moving his lips, which showed how much he despised Morrineth’s actions. "After the death of her mate, she let go of herself. As you might have already noticed. Of course, every shifter has their own way to deal with the pain of losing their mates, and I have nothing against it. Hers were just too wild."

"Getting involved with men all over the place and never going through the getting-to-know phase. Though Nyx, Fenric and Lyra knew that they were siblings, they never knew that they were half-siblings."

Inez gasped. "They are–"

"They are unaware of who their fathers are; Morrineth never told them either," said Killian. "And Lyra’s father just happened to be a wizard. Either Morrineth never knew the truth, or she never cared about it in the face of the circumstances."

Inez snapped her head to look at the man and wondered what the Moon Goddess was thinking when she wrote Killian’s destiny with a witch. As far as she knew, lycans and witches were as compatible as water and oil. They have never gotten together. The hatred between the two of them was in the blood. noveldrama

If lycans could imprint and mate with witches, then the sun could rise from the west. What? They were talking about fucking miracles right here.

"Witch—your mate was a witch?" Inez repeated while trying to wrap her head around the information that was handed to her.

Killian smiled. "I was quite surprised when I found out as well. I thought that fate was trying to mess with me. How could a lycan—that too someone who has inherited the blood of the lycan king allow a witch to be his mate, but you know —when you are young, a bit silly, and the foolish hormones are acting up, you think that you are the main protagonist of your life."

"You accepted her?" Inez voiced them even though the words sounded foreign to her. Her heart turned a bit heavy while her siren let out a whimper. Even though the two of them understood the fact that the woman was gone from Killian’s life, somewhere, they couldn’t help but be awed. What kind of person would Lyra have had to be for her to make Killian set aside their differences?

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Killian reached out and poked her on her forehead. She raised her head as she snapped out of her thoughts and looked at the man in front of her. "What?"

"Don’t think whatever you are thinking. I didn’t love her. It was her differences that called out to me." He tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear and continued, "She was a witch. A really strong one. I don’t think I have ever seen any halflings as strong as hers. But then again, the path that she took..." he sighed as his eyes turned slightly darker.

"Did she do something that she shouldn’t have?"

"Not that I know of." Killian stared behind her as if he were looking at the ghost of his mate. "But the things that happened when she was around—well, that is a story for another time." He shot her an impish smile before saying to her, "You must be tired after what happened today."

Inez parted her lips but then turned quiet. She had never told Killian what happened between her and Dominic. So how could she ask him to be fucking bare with her? Not when she couldn’t do the same. She nodded

"Good girl," Killian remarked as he brought her to his arms and carried her upstairs. His eyes, however, flickered to the dark corner before moving away.

After Inez fell asleep, Killian marched back downstairs. He walked over to the pillar where he had looked earlier. The shadow that he caught was gone; of course, it was gone. Earlier, he didn’t want to spook Inez, which was why he had ignored the shadows lingering in her lodge. If not, he would have faced that damned thing on his own.

He walked over to the pillar, and something shiny caught his eye. Killian narrowed his eyes and strode to the silver necklace that was lying on the floor. It was the necklace that Morrineth had handed to him when Lyra disappeared during one of her phases. She said to him that this necklace was something that Lyra wanted him to have.

However, Killian knew Lyra too well to know that she would never do something like sending him a gift. She was anything but possessive of him. And he hadn’t even taken it seriously. Had thrown this necklace somewhere in the drawers which he had never opened.

I am going to kill her. His beast growled inside his head.

Calm down, Killian told his beast as he looked at the necklace and the one face that he despised to the point that he wished he could scrub every memory of this woman out of his mind. He clenched the necklace and opened the window of the kitchen before hurling it as hard as he could.

He hoped that whoever had left this necklace behind was watching.
