Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha

Chapter 197: No longer useful

Scarlet sucked in a breath. Her eyes flickered subtly, but she controlled her heartbeat just in tbefore Dominic

could catch her. With how sharp Dominic was, she knew that the man would sense something amiss in a matter

of seconds.

"Yes, what about it?" Trying to keep her protectiveness to a bare minimum, she asked the man.

Dominic's eyes narrowed down at the woman in front of him. He interlocked his fingers and placed them on the

table before questioning, "Was it mere coincidence or something else?"

The tension in the room becpalpable as Scarlet shifted on her feet. She carefully composed her face, but

there were countless worries raging within her heart and body. Trying to keep her voice awfully casual, she asked

the man, "And what else would it be?"

She glanced at Evelyn before stating in a supposed-to-be calm voice, "I don’t know what she has told you, but |

just ran into that woman at the store and we talked a little. Why? Is there something else?"

"You mean to tellthat you never noticed the similarities between her and Inez?" Dominic pressed on even

further, and when he spoke, his voice was low and controlled, but Scarlet could taste the storm that was raging

within him.

"Similarities? Not at all." Scarlet had long adapted the art to lie. She pursed her lips when Dominic growled at

her, but she didn’t falter at all. Instead, she continued to speak in a cold voice, "I don’t know what you are

thinking, Dominic. But you need to understand that you need to stop looking for Inez in other women."

Bang!

Scarlet flinched slightly when Dominic banged his fist on the table. The man’s breathing turned ragged as he

spoke in a tight voice, "You don’t need to tellwhat | need to do."

"Then you need to stop questioningabout other women," snapped Scarlet as she clenched her fists. Though

she knew that the path she was taking was a dangerous one, she knew that she had to persist. "Inez is gone,

and so is your bond. It’s about tyou get your head out of your arse and worry more about the children who

went missing last week. Do you even know that the woman who gave birth to a tiger shifter lost not only her son

but also her mate?"

Pups were getting lost every other week, and that wasn’t all. Unique and rare shifters were getting lost every

now and then. Scarlet had lost count of how many shifters their pack had lost in the past few months. Of course,

Killian’s pack had lost pack members as well, but that man was at least putting in an effort to stop it.

Dominic? Not so much.

No one knew what the witches were planning. It could be a plan for the complete annihilation of the shifters or

something worse. They needed to be prepared, not torn from the inside.

A tick appeared in Dominic's cheek, and he looked at her as if she had gone too far, but Scarlet continued to hold

his gaze. "If Inez were here, she would be disappointed in you, too, Dom. Trying to look for a substitute? Are you

for real? Trying to break her wasn’t enough; that you are going to insult her in this way now? Really now, that's a

whole new low. You know that, don’t you, Dominic?"

"Don’t speak as if she is dead!"

"She is for you as long as | am concerned!"

Tension started to rise in the office, and Tao shuffled on his feet. Scarlet knew that he was having a hard time,

especially with two dominant wolves leaking their aura in the room. Evelyn’s face had turned pale, and she

looked like she was having a hard tbreathing, but neither Scarlet nor Dominic cared about it.

The two of them glared at one another before Dominic slid back in his chair. "Be glad that you are her sister, or

else | would have killed you for the disrespect, Scar."

"She showed the biggest disrespect to my sister." Scarlet tipped her chin at Evelyn. "I don’t see you killing her.

So | would have been fine." She shot a fierce sneer at Evelyn, who glared at her before turning around on her

feet and walking away. However, just as she reached the door, she paused and turned to look at the man behind

her. "And oh, the lies that she keeps telling you about how Nessie will return if you keep her by your side? It's

better that you stop. Nessie was always particular about her things and possessions."

"If someone else touched it once she got it, she would rather break her own heart and give it away, but she will

never ever touch it again."

As she turned around, a loud snarl erupted behind her, and she smirked. There. Gover.

This was what you got for playing with her.

Inside the office, Evelyn was on her

"Take her to the dungeons," he told Tao. "All the privileges that were given to her and her family will be taken
