CHAPTER 129: MATING MATCH --SIREN’S WRATH (2)

"For now, until we find out the culprit, we need to step up the security and defend our territory. Don’t go dispersing around while trying to find the culprit behind these attacks," said Killian. As the alpha of the pack, he could not allow his arrogance to sway his decisions and actions.

"I will notify Dominic," said Finn. "His pack is in alliance with ours, as much as I despise the fact that the man had let go of himself completely for a woman, I believe that he should be notified about this. At least we will have more people against the witches; it will help divert their attention as well."

Killian nodded as he jammed the pack bond. It was quite painful with so many raging thoughts running through his head. However, just as he thought that he had had enough nonsense for the day, he received a call from his mother.

"Hello?" he swiped the answer button and answered the call, knowing that the woman would not stop calling him if he didn’t pick up.

"Killian, did you leave the pack yet?" Molly reminded her son patiently. "You remember that today you need to meet with Miss Drakos."

Killian’s brows furrowed as he turned to look at the calendar that was sitting in the corner of the table. Only then did he realise that the weekend that he had been dreading was finally here. He needed to keep a good eye on things, to think that so many days passed by one after another without him knowing.

"I understand," Killian replied.

"Don’t tell me that you haven’t even started getting ready?" Molly frowned when she heard the leisurely tone of her son. Her eyes widened, and she questioned, "That girl has been waiting for you since morning. You cannot be this careless!"

"How rude, Mom," Killian chuckled as he said to his mother, "I have to look my finest for someone as grand and royal as Miss Drakos. Of course, I need to be careful."

Molly knew that her son was playing with her and gritted her teeth. She said to him, "You better go to the restaurant on time, Kill. I don’t care what your reasons are, you better not let me down!"

After she finished, Molly ended the call, and Killian closed his eyes when he heard her shrill voice followed by the beeping of the call.

"What is it?" Finn asked. He glanced at his alpha, who was smiling, but there was something wrong with his smile.

"It’s nothing." Killian got to his feet and then said, "Arrange for a car; I need to go and treat a deluded damsel."

As soon as he finished speaking, Finn frowned and questioned, "What about the hit list?"

"What about it?" Killian mockingly asked back. "As long as I go to this damned mating match, who cares if I get blown into bits?"

Finn studied the reckless thrill on Killian’s face before saying to him, "Where do you want to go?" He silently sent a prayer for the poor Miss Drakos, who had no idea what kind of trouble she had fallen into.

Killian licked his lips and said, "I am in the mood to eat fish." A rather beautiful one at that.

On the other side, Inez blew her nose on the handkerchief. She suddenly felt a bit better and couldn’t help but frown. Was this due to the kiss? Don’t tell her that the stupid and cheesy lines that Scarlet used to tell her really worked?

"Inez!"

Inez turned and looked at Nyx, who was standing outside the lodge with Selene sitting in her wheelchair next to her.

"Nyx? Selene?" Inez walked over to where the two women were standing at the threshold of her lodge. She looked at the two of them and questioned with a sniff, "What’s the matter?"

"Do you want to come with us?" Nyx asked with a sweet and welcoming smile. "There is this new place that opened just around the corner. It’s exclusive to all shifters, and we wanted to go and try it."

Selene rolled her eyes and then stated in a quiet voice, "She just wants to mess with Kill’s mating match."

"Mating match?" Inez’s eyes narrowed slightly. Did that man really agree to go on a mating match after kissing the life out of her?

"That’s right," Nyx nodded with a sly glint that was quick to disappear as she said to Inez, "Kill always makes things difficult for me. I will never forget that he chased one of my boyfriends away just because he couldn’t accept that I was dating. I look a lot like my sister... that’s why it was hard for him to accept seeing me with another man," she added upon seeing Inez’s confused look.

Though Nyx didn’t say it outright, her words made it sound like her status in Killian’s life was different from that of other women due to her relationship with Lyra.

Inez’s frown deepened, but at the same time, a surge of rage started to rise in her heart. Her siren too hissed angrily. How dare that man kiss them and go on a date with another woman? As far as her siren knew, Killian had kissed them, which basically meant that the man was supposed to worship the very ground that they walked on.

How dare he look for another woman?

Red, hot and blazing fury shot through Inez’s head and before she could stop to think that she had no right to stop Killian when they had never cleared their relationship. At that moment, she only knew one thing, and that was Killian was with another woman, and that was like a lash of a whip to her siren’s pride.

Her eyes almost turned into slits as she agreed, "Fine, let’s go." With a smile curling her lips, she said to the two women, "We should take a little revenge on our dear alpha for all the good things he usually does to us."

Killian Sokolov, you better wait for me.
