Chapter 117: A Bad Premonition

Edira glanced at the woman. A hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes as she thought that Molly was unaware of the consequences, and that was the reason why she made a promise such as this one. However, after listening to her words, Edira understood that the woman was aware of the consequences. She just didn’t use her head to the point of realising that Killian might refuse her.

"Since you knew what might happen, why did you not think things through before? Why did you have to make a promise as dangerous as this one? I know that you are a wench who thrives on attention; you at least need to know what kind of attention you can take or not."

"Mom..." Molly looked at Edira. Her eyes were filled with silent pleas; she indeed never expected Killian’s rejection. She had been anticipating his agreement; after all, this marriage match was not a bad one. As long as the two of them ended up reaching an equal base, she was certain that the match was going to work.

Edira Sokolov hated Molly with a passion. Because of this woman, she had lost almost all of her grandchildren. Fortunately, Killian and Selene made their way out of that incident alive, or else they would be under six feet in the ground, all because of her stupid obsession.

However, she also knew that there was no point in rejecting a meeting arranged with the Drakos family.

"Killian," she called to her grandson, who paused and turned to look at her with an inquisitive look. "Take the daughter of the Drakos family to dinner. Fulfil the promise that your mother made to their family. If you don’t like the woman, just tell me. I will let the Drakos family know that we cannot play around with important things such as imprinting. Anyway, only fools and psychos would try to imprint on someone forcefully."

Killian respected his grandmother. The woman had a tongue of pure and sheer venom, but she was also the one shifter who stood up against the torment of his stepfather and his mother. She fought against the alpha of their previous pack and won before taking him and Selene out of that pack and moving to his old one.

If Edira had not stood up against the torment of his mother, he would have worried that he and his sister would have lost their lives at the hands of this woman.

Killian knew that Molly knew this, and she was taking advantage of this but if this woman thought that she could control him, then she was damn wrong. He refused to become a pawn in her hands, the goody two-shoes that she would most definitely ruin just like she did with Cole.

"If that is what you want, grandmother," replied Killian. He curled his lips when he saw Molly looking pleased and relieved. He said to her, "However, from the next time, I would hope that you will think twice before doing such a thing. Because begging can only take you so far."

Molly’s face turned pale when she heard her son’s words. Even though the man had not said a single crude word. She knew that he was calling her a beggar.

However, when she saw that Edira was not saying anything, she lowered her head and gritted out, "I will make sure not to do it again."

"That will be sweet of you, mother. Not doing anything, just like always," Killian sweetly spoke as he turned on his feet and walked out of the office building. He needed vodka. A really strong shot of vodka.

"Do I really need to come with you?" Inez asked as she looked at Selene, who was dressed in a white dress with cute pink flowers printed on it. She was wearing little white pumps, which made her look even cuter. The two of them had finished another session to suppress Selene’s attacks, and before Inez could leave, she heard the woman say that she wanted to go to the shopping mall to buy something for Edira and Morrineth.

Selene was applying the lip balm on her lips when she heard Inez’s question. She turned to look at the woman, who seemed resistant to the idea of coming to the mall with her and said, "Come on, Inez. It is going to be fun. Think about it, if you don’t come with me, then Kill will never let me go to the mall."

"With you by my side, there will be an added layer of protection."

Inez raised her brows. She said, "So I am being dragged because your bodyguards are not doing a good job?"

Laxus, who was sitting on the couch with his eyes closed, pried one of his eyes open and looked at Inez, who looked right back.

"I never meant that," Selene said sheepishly. "I just meant to say that Kill is really overprotective. If you don’t come with me, then he will likely refuse my request. But with you next to me, he will at least think about it."

Honestly, Ines would have loved to stay at her lodge and try to learn new skills. One of the skills that she was learning was the Melody of The Unknown. This skill was a really useful but difficult one as well. As long as she worked hard, Inez would be able to compose a melody which would give a peek into the future.

Till now, nothing seemed to have worked, but she was not giving up.

However, at the same time, Selene had cared for her and protected her quite well when no one else had taken care of her. Inez pursed her lips and sighed when she saw the pleading look on Selene’s face.

"Fine. I will come with you."

"Yay!"

"But I am not going to shop," Inez said at once. She would rather eat something nice than play the dress-up game with Selene. Something this woman did a lot.

"As long as you are willing to come."

Back then... Neither of the two knew the danger they were stepping into.
