Chapter 82: Face Off With Dominic (2)

Dominic jumped to his feet almost immediately. He looked at Killian and questioned in a low voice, "What do you know?" Did Inez meet with Killian before she ran away from the pack? Did she tell him something?

"What do I need to know?" Killian tilted his head to one side and questioned with a frown. "What got you so worked up, alpha Cherith? Did I say something wrong?"

His tone was perfectly even, and it would have confused even Inez if she didn’t know that the man was playing with Dominic. Though she was a bit annoyed by how easily Killian revealed her wounds in front of everyone, she was amused by how he was playing around with Dominic.

Even though he was calling Dominic ’trash’, Inez was certain that it would probably be impossible for Dominic to make the connection. She turned to look at the man who sat next to her and saw him wink at her with a subtle hint of amusement.

"Dom, calm down." Tao pulled Dominic back. He had no idea what had happened with his friend, but ever since Inez went missing, Dominic had gotten more and more irritable. He would jump at the smallest sign of provocation, which probably wasn’t good for their pack.

He then turned to look at Killian before saying, "No such thing happened between the two of them. I assure you that, Alpha Sokolov. It’s probably a misunderstanding. You don’t have to think too much about something so small; I believe that Nessie will be back in a few days."

Inez sneered inwardly when she heard the man call her Nessie so familiarly. What happened to trash, bitch and whatnot? How come she was suddenly Nessie again?

She then glanced at Tao, who was speaking to Dominic. It seemed like they were lying to everyone and making her out to be someone who ran away without any reason. Of course, Inez didn’t expect anything less than from them. After all, rejecting one’s mate was not a big deal, but holding back their mating bond and sleeping with another woman all for the sake of causing pain to their mate?

That was the lowest of the low moves.

As if sensing her gaze, Tao turned and looked at her. Inez met his gaze for two seconds before turning to look away.

Tao frowned. Though the woman didn’t show it on her face, Tao had a feeling that she didn’t like them. This was something that he could not understand, as he was sure that they had never met Lyla before.

Sensing the gunpowder in the air, Remi turned to look at Killian, who was sitting in front of him. He questioned, "Okay, what can I do for you, Alpha Sokolov?"

All the traces of amusement died from Killian’s face, which caused the tension in the room to rise. Killian spoke in a quiet but grave voice, "You already know why we are here, Remi."

Remi tilted his head to one side. He heavily sighed, "You are seeking the witches’ lair because they tried to attack the pups in your pack. And I know that the trail has led you here, but I cannot help you."

"I am keeping this perfectly civil because I don’t have the time to waste my time at the council. They will definitely try to stop me from going to war with you, Remi. But you better know that I am not scared of waging war against you. If I want to kill you, you know it better than anyone—anyone; no one will be able to stop me."

A loud gulp echoed in the room.

"Now you better answer the questions that I have for you and your pack before I lose my temper."

Inez turned to look at Killian. No wonder this man could control so many lycans despite them being known for their atrocious attitude. She had never heard him speak in such a tone. It was dark and menacing. It also held a promise of reprisal if Remi didn’t give him what Killian wanted from him.

In fact, if she were being honest, she had never seen him look like this before. There was so much energy, intensity and darkness oozing from him that it scared even her. Thus, she didn’t blame Remi for straightening up in his seat.

If she were in his shoes, she would have done the same thing. In fact, Inez wondered why the man was not speaking like a parrot despite the lycan looking at him with such an intense look.

"We know that the witches are behind this attack on my pack," continued Killian. "We also know that you are connected with the witch who is leading the movement against the shifters. Despite knowing that the risk was not worth becoming a blood traitor, you took it, and I have nothing to say about it. But you better give me the answer that I want."

"You are connected with witches, Remi?" Dominic turned to look at Remi with a growl erupting from his lips.

He was not a good man, but he was a shifter, and every shifter knew the feud that they had with the witches. For Remi to look for a witch—it was not a simple matter of betraying his own kind. But the entire shifter community.

Inez had to hand it to Remi. Even though the man was being stared at by two really dominant alphas, he didn’t say a word. Instead, he shrugged his shoulders as if it were not a big thing. He replied, "You are making it sound like I did something wrong, Alpha Sokolov. I just did what I needed to when I was in trouble. It was all business. Just because I was involved with a witch one time, it didn’t mean that I am still involved with them. It was just a one-time thing."

"Where are they, Remi?" Killian asked without looking away. He was a lycan and he could sense a lie better than the one who was lying.
