Chapter 78: Bonding Time
Chapter 78: Bonding Time
Killian raised his head. When he saw the beautiful woman in front of him, he raised his brows. Because he never thought that Inez would change her appearance to the point that even he would have a hard time recognising her.
The woman in front of him was elegant and like a pixie, while Inez was like a ball of fire. Fiery and hot, though she didn’t have the elegance that she was portraying at the moment, she made it up for by her sarcastic taunts and witty persona.
And honestly, Killian preferred that side of her.
"Well, you should take a look at your drawer," he winked at her with a cheeky smile. "Who knows? You might be missing something?"
Inez narrowed her eyes and looked at him. "No, you didn’t."
When the lycan simply smiled at her, she stormed into her laundry room and found out that she was not missing anything. Annoyed with herself and the liar outside, she strode back into the corridor. "Haha, very funny."
"It is your fault for believing me," Killian curled his lips behind his coffee mug. "How come you remembered that lycans are known for stealing but not lying? Anyway, I don’t need to steal anything from women; they usually leave it as a souvenir for me."
Inez rolled her eyes for the tenth time in just an hour; she crossed her arms in front of her bosom. "If you are done, then I guess we can leave?"
Killian set down the coffee mug and said, "Sure. Just let me put this coffee mug in the dishwasher." After speaking, he turned to walk down the stairs and climbed down.
Inez watched him go with a frown on her face; she couldn’t understand what was going on with the lycan. From his flirtatious actions to his taking her along, Inez really couldn’t understand what he was thinking.
Seeing her frown, Killian said to her, "Don’t think too much. I am not your enemy, Inez." His voice was soft, low and soothing. "I am not going to harm you like the others, so you can rest easy around me."
Could she?
"How can I even trust you?" Inez said to him with a raise of her brow. "Even my own mate had discarded me when I needed him the most."
"Believe it or not, I won’t let you down," Killian said to her with a smile. The woman might not know it, but never, not even once, did he have such an idea. She might not be willing to trust him at the moment, but Killian was certain that he would one day win her trust. No matter how many walls Inez had built around her, he would wriggle through them.
And what after that? A little voice in his head asked.
Yeah, what after?
Killian shook his head, not wanting to think about that question just yet.
"Let’s go," he said to Inez, who walked down the stairs in the high heels that she didn’t find comfortable and yet she could move in them with efficient grace. It must have something to do with her being a siren. She must be built to gain and attract the attention of men.
The two of them walked to the parking lot, where Killian heard the sound of a wrapper crinkling. He turned to look at Inez, who was holding a pack of chips, and he snatched it from her right away.
"What?" She snapped when she saw that the man had taken her snacks away from her.
"You are not going to ignore me the entire ride," Killian said to the woman as he threw the chip bag in the dashboard storage. He turned to look at her and said, "You and I are going to have some really good bonding time."
"I can already feel that this ride is going to be a mess."
Killian laughed, but he didn’t hand Inez her snacks.
Seeing this, Inez huffed and slid inside the car. This arsehole, he really was taking a mile just because she was giving him an inch.
As the two of them drove out of the parking lot, she heard the man say, "What do you do in your free time?"
The casual question put her on guard as she turned to look at the man and huffed. "What does that have to do with you?"
"Come on, Inez. Sharing these little details will not cause you any harm." His tone was coaxing, causing goosebumps to break out all over her arm.
Annoyed and exasperated, she said to him, "I read, alright? Sometimes I like baking and cooking. I also have this gaming laptop that I use to play some of the latest games. Tao got me hooked on this battlefield game that I cannot let go of for the time being."
When Killian heard her speak of Tao, he felt a pang of jealousy. It had nothing to do with Inez, but the fact that he was just a bit bitter over the fact that she had a life where he was not with her. He wondered if the Inez of the present was slightly different than she was in the past.
Was she this wary before, or did she turn like this after Dominic rejected and hurt her?
There were a lot of questions that he had in his mind, but he had no way to get an answer for them.
"Are you happy now?" his thoughts came to a stop when he heard her speak again.
Dominic smiled. "I am feeling quite ecstatic." When they stopped at a red light, he turned to look at her and said, "Do you know that we will be holding a birthday party for Morrineth and my grandmother? The two of them share the same birthday."
"And what does that have to do with me?" Inez asked with a raise of her brow.
"Just wanted to let you know," Killian cheekily grinned at her. "If you turn up at the party without a gift, they will definitely be upset."
"Who said that I was coming?!"
