Chapter 359: Aftermath
"l am fine."
"No, you are not, but you will be," said Killian as he marched past the corridors of the council building. His voice
was dangerously flat, and he didn’t seem to like the fact that his mate was hurt. Of course, he didn’t. He was
fiercely protective of Inez and the fact that she was kidnapped right under his protection. Tied and thrown in
prison, well, one could say that the man was an inch away from burning the council building to ashes.
Tracy could feel her lips scrunching up even with the horrible possibilities jumping up in front of her.
"I don’t know what you are thinking—alright, who am I kidding? | know exactly what you are thinking, but you'd
better keep your anger suppressed," Tracy drawled. She did enjoy the lycan heir snapping and growling, but she
couldn't allow him to run amok like a feral toddler with no sense of direction. "If you burn this place down, others
are bound to blInez. keep this in your mind and don’t act on your instincts, no matter how much you want
to."
"lI wasn’t going to," Killian glanced at her and gritted out. Though he said that, his expression was full of
reluctance.
Finn looked like he was contemplating whether to stay with his alpha or find the nearest exit from where he could
escape. His gaze kept darting to and fro at his alpha’s increasingly thunderous expression and at Inez, whose
face was getting paler due to the pain and agony she was suffering from.
"You better not burn this place down." Laxus glanced at his alpha. His voice was even and firm, even though he
looked like he very much wanted to bolt from here. "We don’t have enough funds to build the council another
building. And we just finished building this one."
"Oh, so you have already walked down that road of embarrassment." Tracy whistled.
Killian turned and glanced at the woman, his gaze full of displeasure. "Why are you still following us?"
"Why else? | need to make sure that she doesn’t suck you dry of your life essence. When sirens get hurt, they
rely on their prey to recover their strength. With how weak Inez is at the moment, there is a very good chance
that her siren would try to seduce you into sleeping with her. Which, mind you, will not be good for you unless
you want to die a horrible death."
Inez’s face turned red despite the loss of blood that she had suffered from, while Killian’s eyes locked onto Tracy

Inez could feel her heart pound. Trapped between embarrassment due to the words that Tracy had spoken to her
and the worry of doing exactly what she said. After all, she could feel her siren stirring stronger than ever within
her. She had known that her siren was capable of hurting Killian, but hearing it again made her feel—well, scared
of her own powers. Of her own existence.
"I think...she is right—we shouldn't be alone." Inez’s voice was thin; even when all she wanted was to reach out
and hug Killian. Inez knew that it wasn’t quite possible, not without her swallowing the essence of the man who
was holding her in his arms.
The words were weak; there was no particularly strong desire or determination within them. If anything, they
sounded like a whine as if she were a toddler upset with her parent for peeling the banana in the wrong way.
Killian dropped his gaze. His jaw clenched so tight that Inez could hear him grinding his teeth. The look in his
lightning blue eyes was enough to make her lower her head.
Tracy hummed softly. "Don’t look like that. | am only doing this for her own good."
"She is hurt." He said, his voice full of menace.
"All the more reasons for you to not touch her and stay away from her." Tracy stood firmly by her decision. She
turned her gaze up and stared right into Killian’s eyes before stating, "You cannot play hooky with her when she
is like this, can you now?"
Killian seemed like he was planning on saying something extremely ridiculous. Like, heck yeah, he was going to
do whatever he wanted, but he simply sighed and resignedly agreed. "Alright."
And that was it. There were no hard feelings, no fighting, and no making a fuss. Inez also felt relieved. There was
no one hurt, there was no murder and no bloodshed. Which was indeed quite good, considering the situation. But
as she raised her head and looked at Killian’s handsface, his chiselled jaw and luscious lips felt and tasted
amazing whenever he kissed her. And suddenly she felt a bit regretful. There was this sharp pang of
disappointment

For one brief, insane and chaotic
