Chapter 83: Visibly Whipped

"If I tell you, I am sure that you and your pack will kill those witches."

Inez rolled her eyes when she heard Remi’s response. Well, duh. Those witches killed newborn pups of Killian’s pack; what did the man think Killian was going to do? Did he think that Killian was going to worship the ground on which those hideous witches walked?

She turned to look at Killian and just for the sake of it, whispered in a loud voice, "Oh my god, he can read minds. I am really worried now. What should we do? I feel so uncomfortable."

As soon as she finished speaking, Dominic turned to look at her. His eyes flashed with a hint of amusement and a reminiscence as if he was remembering someone close.

Inez noticed the glint in his eyes and stiffened. She silently wondered if the man had noticed something. Turning her face to look at Remi, she heard the man say, "I wish I could tell you the truth, but those witches had put a curse on me. I cannot say a word about their lair to you."

"I call that bullshit," Inez said with a smile on her lips, which made her look like a woman worthy of a ballroom instead of sitting in a cheap living hall and interrogating a man like Remi.

Remi growled at her. He was clearly offended by her remark. He said to her, "You doubt my word?"

"I do," Inez nodded and stated, "You are not a man with a lot of guts, Alpha Remi. And the fact that you have looked for alliances with almost all the pack shows that you are really worried and scared of dying. And you dare to tell me that you agreed to sign a life-and-death bond with the witches?"

She tilted her head to one side and went on, "You are a rather selfish man who would not put his life on the line no matter what. Even if you needed the help of the witches, at most, you have handed them a sacrifice. But putting your life on the line? That’s impossible."

"And that means that you have lied to me twice," Killian remarked with a tilt of his head. "That’s a very bold but also very stupid move."

"I have been loyal to you, Killian. And you are now questioning me because of a woman you only got to know for a few weeks?"

"You are not loyal to me because you respect me, but because you know that if you go against me, your pack members will not find a single piece of bone to bury."

Remi stiffened.

He looked at Killian with a hint of annoyance on his face as he stated in a cold voice, "You are asking me to hand the witches over to you, but they saved the life of my mate, Killian. They have given me a new life. How can I condemn them to death? Believe me, by going against the witches, we are missing something really good. They can help us in more than one way— what are you doing?"

He turned to look at Inez, and so did Killian and Dominic.

"They were here." As Inez was not a shifter, she could sense the scent of witches. As a siren, most probably, Inez didn’t count under the spell used to wipe the scent of the witches. "I can smell their scents. They did try to clean it up, but it was not done thoroughly."

As soon as she finished speaking, the beta who was standing behind Remi lunged at Killian, and so did the rest of the enforcers at Dominic and Tao.

While the female enforcer launched at Inez. Her claws were unleashed. Maybe the woman sensed that there was something weird about Inez, as she sensed and noticed the presence of the witches.

Dominic turned to look at Inez and tried to rush to her aid, while Killian was confident that the woman would be able to take care of the female enforcer. Even though she no longer had a wolf, that woman had her own skills. If she wanted, she could easily subdue that wolf who attacked her.

Thus, he focused on the beta who was attacking him just as he heard Tao shout from behind, "Pay attention to your own fight, Dom. She can take care of her own."

Killian turned to glance at Dominic, who had narrowly dodged an attack as he had made an attempt to save Inez. Like the woman needed saving.

Seeing his actions, Killian shook his head. Though Inez was not a dominant shifter, she was a siren. She would not see the actions of Dominic as favourable. Especially when she was still pissed at him for abandoning her.

Lost in his thoughts, he tilted his body to the left and knotted his fingers in the hair of the male who had pounced on him. "Now, that was rude. How can you jump at me when I am not looking? That’s a kind of cowardly thing to do."

Before the beta could swing his claws at him, Killian kicked him in the back of his knees and then knocked the man to the ground. The beta groaned in pain, but just as he was about to get on his feet and attack the man, he heard Inez speak.

"I am going to kill her. If you want to save her, you’d better drop the fight now."

Everyone paused and turned to look at Inez. No one knew how she did it, but the enforcer who attacked her was lying on the floor with a bleeding neck, and the Luna of Remi’s pack was now in her hands.

The woman was whimpering while eyeing Inez’s bloody mouth and stated, "She is a vampire."

Shifters had never seen a siren attack anyone as they kept to themselves; thus, they didn’t know that the pure-blooded shifters could elongate their sharp teeth. Thus, Luna mistook Inez for a vampire.

But as the misunderstanding worked, neither Inez nor Killian said anything.
