Chapter 137: His Head at Her Feet

Leaning back in the seat, Killian raised his hand and rubbed his aching eyes. He had spent most of the time of the day at the computer, watching many of the vile videos on N.M.H. with Matt and Finn. He had hoped that they would be able to find some familiar faces, which would narrow down their search. As long as they could find even a single familiar face, they would be able to hunt down these sadistic bastards.

Killian didn’t consider himself an emotional person. He always believed that he was the kind of person who felt too little, and yet it was quite hard for him to block every bit of emotion to watch these horrendous videos. It took everything in Killian to shut off his emotions and observe these videos without losing his sanity.

Unfortunately, even after watching the hundredth video, they realised that the faces had been carefully concealed. The only thing that was common in all videos was that these witches appeared in the same place in every video. It was like an old palace dungeon, with the floor covered in old blood, with chains dangling from the walls. Other than that, the entire space was completely empty.

Matt was quick to tell them that the IP address of the site had once again been masked. If not for his little trick, they would have lost the site once again. He told them that this was done really carefully; if not for an expert like him tracing it down, he was worried that they would have been blocked out of the site long ago.

Though he had, of course, failed in tracing down even a single person who had posted the videos because they had done it anonymously, that didn’t mean that they would be able to hide for long.

"Keep trying," said Killian as he watched the entire pack file into the dining room. "We cannot let these bastards escape."

"That’s right," Ajax yawned before letting out a sneer. He was tired after patrolling for the entire night; in the past, he could at least get some shut-eye, but with the witches targeting their pack and putting them on the hit list, he had no time to even close his eyes. These days, he was working so much that he wondered if he was going to die while running around the territory boundary. "If I don’t get a chance to rip their head off their shoulders, then what’s the point of staying alive?"

"I am trying, and I should be able to do it. But as you can see, they have used a proxy to post these videos anonymously. It will take some time, and if you are expecting the IP address of every single person who has used this site, then you need to wait for a few months. I mean, just look at the long library of the clips," Matt sighed. He scrolled down the list of videos and continued to speak, "It might be best to just try to get our hands on the subscribers’ list of a channel that will narrow down our suspect list."

"You might as well—"

"Wait," Just as Finn was speaking, Killian stopped Matt. He said sharply, "Go back up." He pointed to a certain clip and cursed out loud. When Inez heard him curse, she peered at the screen of the laptop, as she was quite curious what could make the man curse. And as she looked at the frame, her eyes fell on the title — [Wolf Tied and Tormented.]

As Matt clicked on the thumbnail, it enlarged, and the face of the woman appeared on the screen. The female looked wild, petrified and betrayed. It was Inez.

Her stomach dropped, and Inez looked at the screen. Her brain seemed to have stopped working. Inez was conscious of the fact that everyone around her had stopped talking, and they were looking at her. She wanted to shatter the laptop, as she knew what this video was about.

She couldn’t believe that Dominic had stooped so low. How could he—how could he do such a thing?

Suddenly, she felt suffocated. It was as if she were back in the room where she had been stripped naked. Though shifters were used to such things, Inez felt it was quite humiliating, as she was a part siren. With chains hanging by her wrist, she was left to dangle in the prison cell, where Dominic would come to question her every day and night.

And each time it would be the same question.

’Do you regret it?’

She never got to ask him what she should have regretted. Befriending him? Leaving him when he needed her? Or even existing? She only knew that every day was hell for her and that was when her spirit started to break.

"Inez?"

Inez snapped out of her thoughts when she heard Selene’s concerned voice. She could see the pity in the eyes of the lycan shifter, but that was not what she wanted. She wanted a life where her past wouldn’t chase after her.

Her siren side stirred. She wanted to take charge such that she could make these people forget what they had seen. Wanting to eradicate the stain that they had to bear with even though they had never done anything wrong, but they couldn’t because this video cannot be deleted.

She needed to get out of the room.

And so she did.

Without looking at anyone, she turned on her heel and raced through the corridor and rushed out of the main lodge. She didn’t even know how long she ran; she just ran and ran until she could no longer run.

Unfortunately for her, the run was not enough to drown out the rage that she was feeling at that moment. It was still there, bubbling under her skin like poisonous magma. Her lungs ached, and her breath left her body in short, worry-filled pants. Her siren side had long gone crazy, taking the video as an insult to their pride and wanting nothing less than the head of Dominic Cherith at their feet.

And honestly, Inez agreed with her.
