Chapter 255: Lack of Answers "Hey," Just as her thoughts were going down the rabbit hole, Killian reached out and took her hand into his. He said to her, "Don't think about it too much. Alright? I am here with you; no matter what this might lead to, you are not alone, okay, Bubbles?" There were so many questions rushing through her head, and fear seemed to be coursing in her veins like a second layer of blood, but the second she heard Killian's supporting words, Inez felt a bit better. Yeah, she was not alone this taround; someone was there with her.
"I know. I just-I hoped that Tracy would have been a bit more honest with me." She was way too cryptic. She didn't even say how she knew all about what was going on with her. Nor did she tell her what she wanted from her. It made Inez feel like she was caught in a whirlpool with no chance of getting out of it. Like she knew that she was in danger and that she needed to get the fuck out, but she couldn't because the force was tremendous for her to fight back.
That was the scary part of dealing with the unknown.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd to top it all, Tracy told her that her very existence went against the laws of fate and nature. Does it mean that her mother was right all along? That she was a monster.
"Witches are known for being cryptic," Killian said to her. His voice was strained with worry. "I am actually surprised that she even bothered to cand save your life. Witches never intervene between packs or shifters' battles. Even if it's their kind who started it. That's why I am worried; I cannot decipher her intentions." And neither could she. What Killian told her, Inez knew it as well. Witches had always kept the slogan 'We hate Shifters' alive for centuries. They had caused great damage to the shifters in the past.
Their hatred for shifters mirrored the disgust that shifters had for them.
Inez, too, was doubtful about Tracy's intentions. But unfortunately, she had no way to contact her at the moment.
"I will send Ryder and Levi to investigate a little about this witch. For the tbeing, keep this matter a secret." Killian's eyebrows furrowed, and then he told her, "I believe that the traitor in the pack is someone who is closely watching all our moves. I don't know whether that witch is our ally or our enemy, but let's keep this incident a secret, shall we?" "Alright," Inez had nothing against his suggestion. In fact, her gut feeling also told her that she needed to keep this meeting with Tracy a secret. Within her, she could feel the distraught disbelief that her siren was going through at the moment. It was quite clear to her that her siren was simply unamused by her lack of belief in the words that the witch had told them about their powers. But Inez didn't quite have any proof to believe what Tracy had told her.
If she had powers that could change or raze the world, then why didn't they awaken when she needed them the most? Why was she trodden on by everyone in the Venus Pack? If she were that powerful, then she would have dealt with Dominic and his minions with a flick of her finger, right? But it never happened. She was just like any normal girl out there or shifter.
"I have ordered a search for Joannes, too," Killian looked at the watch on his wrist and patted her on the back of her hand. "I know that you would wantto stay with you but—" "What I want is for you to drag that bastard out and skin him alive." Inez scoffed. She still felt her ribs hurt every tshe breathed. Even though the subtle pain of being poked by several needles was gone, she was having trouble breathing, and it was all due to the wizard who sent that halfling after her. "I need answers, damn it." Killian's lips twitched with amusement. He nodded and agreed with her, "Don't worry; I will try to make that man speak." Which clearly meant that he would interrogate Joannes until he pried his mouth open. Good. That wizard needed to learn his lesson about not walking down the path of greed because down there could be a really pissed-off lycan.
After a short pause, she turned and questioned, "What about Evelyn?" She remembered getting pushed off the balcony by that woman. It was quite amusing to even think that someone like Evelyn had the guts to do it.
"She was taken away by Alpha Cherith," stated Killian with a frown. "I would have loved to deal with her, but she is not the pack member of my pack, which means that I have little to no say in what to do with her. Only Dominic can make the decision."
Hearing his response, Inez scoffed. She had no trust in Dominic. Maybe that man might simply spank Evelyn on the back and let the matter go. That woman broke her wolf like no one else could, and yet she was roaming around guilt-free. Even the breaking of their mate bond could not make Dominic punish that woman; why would he even punish Evelyn now? Inez held the covers close to her chest and looked down, only to realise that she was naked. She turned to look at Killian and asked, "Why am I naked?"
"The healers askedto remove your clothes for better absorption of the spell," Killian replied, as he m down at versche glanced down at the covers that were hiding her curves. "They toldthat your condition was quite special due to the witch's attack. That's why I agreed with their suggestion. It was a 'race against time' kind of moment." Inez nodded as she tried to get out of the bed, only for her head to sway slightly.
