Chapter 63: Blood Traitors, Witches and Shifters

"Tie him up." Ajax glanced at the enforcers who let the man escape. He said to them, "You can’t even control an omega? How did you pass the enforcer’s exam?"

The enforcers lowered their heads at once in embarrassment. Seeing this, Ajax rolled his eyes and said, "What are you lowering your head for? Go and grab him before he runs away!"

Just as the enforcers made a grab at the omega male, he reached out and hugged Killian’s legs. He shouted, "No, we didn’t do anything wrong. There has to be a mistake! Please listen to our pleas, Alpha." The omega male begged and flailed his legs, but to no avail; the enforcers grabbed him and pulled him back.

"What’s going on?" Inez asked as she stepped forward and came to a stand beside Selene, who was sitting in her wheelchair a bit far from the sight of trouble.

Selene raised her head and whispered, "I am not sure, but I think my brother found the witch who was hiding in the pack’s territory." She looked extremely worried while looking at the omega couple.

Another scream echoed in the silence of the shore, and Selene turned to look at the omega couple. So did Inez as she looked at the omega couple who were being dragged away from the crowd.

"It is just that we have no idea who the witch among the two of them is," Selene added with a sigh. "It’s a shame that even the innocent one is being punished."

Witches and shifters had been going after each other’s blood ever since they came into existence. While witches believed that they were the closest to the Moon Goddess, the shifters believed that they were the most loyal devotees of the Moon Goddess; because of this, the two factions had been at odds with one another for centuries.

Not to mention the fear.

The witches feared the armour of the shifters that made it difficult for them to cast spells on them, and the shifters feared the magical abilities of the witches. The two factions never belonged to one side and had always stood on the opposite side.

The witches had tried to kill the shifters’ cubs on many occasions, while the shifters had tried to kill the witches in retaliation. As for the low-ranking creatures like Inez, they have always been caught in the middle between the two factions. They were either used as sacrifices, or their blood was used to boost the strength and adrenaline.

Finn looked at the omega couple and said in a cold voice, "You better tell the truth. Where did you send the children?"

"We didn’t!" The male omega seemed truly horrified at the notion. He seemed to be shaken to the core that such a terrifying crime was being pinned on his head. "I have lost kids in the hands of witches, too, Finn. You know that. How can I even think of joining hands with them and becoming a traitor of my own kind?"

Finn, however, remained cold. He eyed the man and his mate with a hint of distaste, something that Inez had felt and experienced in her old pack.

"Are you sure that they are blood traitors, Finn?" someone in the pack asked as they looked at the omega couple with sympathy in their eyes. One of the females couldn’t help but say, "They have been nothing but kind... I suppose that you are making a mistake."

"You think that we are making a mistake?" Ajax was the one who responded instead of Finn. He curled his lips and then said to the female shifter who spoke, "It seems like you don’t trust our investigation. Do you want to try, honey? Feel free to do so."

As soon as he finished speaking, the woman who had spoken for the omega couple turned red with shame.

Inez clenched her fists because she could see herself in the omega couple. In her last pack, she too was treated like this when she had never done anything wrong. And yet every time someone tried to speak up for her, Dominic and the others would shame that person until everyone stopped speaking for her, and she was ostracised by everyone.

They did it until even a five-year-old child knew never to take a stand for her.

"Now if everyone is done speaking—"

"Do you really have evidence that they did it?"

Among the whispers and murmurs where no one dared to say a word against Killian and the rest of the enforcers, a new voice spoke up.

Killian, who was lazily sitting on the boulder, curled his lips in an amused smile as he languidly raised his head and turned to look at Inez, who had just spoken up. He should have expected the little firecracker to speak up just now, and it was not a surprise that she had done it.

Finn frowned lightly when he heard Inez’s remark, while Ajax simply smiled at her. He looked at her as if she were a naive little girl who didn’t understand the way of the world, and damn if that didn’t make her feel annoyed.

"Honey, do you really want us to hand over the evidence?" Ajax asked with a tilt of his head. The reason why he was so polite with Inez was because her chocolate cake had won his heart, and it would be a real shame if he had to bring down such a talented and skilled woman in the kitchen.

"Why not?" Inez asked while wondering if everyone in Killian’s pack was just this brazen. "The omega male keeps saying that he is innocent while you say that they are not." Ignoring the tugging on her sleeves, she continued, "Your pack deserves transparency, Ajax. And if these people have done something wrong, then the pack members deserve to know it lest they think that they wronged an innocent person."

"Inez—"

"It seems like you have a lot to say, Bubbles."
