Chapter 33: You are not welcomed (2)
Inez rushed downstairs in a heartbeat. As soon as she jumped down the last step, she smelt a yummy scent that she had come to dislike. With her heart thudding in her chest, she stepped inside the living and strode over to stand next to Scarlet.
The confusion in the eyes of her sister was mirrored in her own as she stared at the mountain of the man who was standing in the middle of her living hall as if he had the right to do so.
"Now, Scarlet," her mother chided Scarlet as if she was being rude to the Moon Goddess herself. "This is not the way to talk to our guests."
Scarlet wheeled to look at her mother; she was simply shocked at the actions of their mother. She said in an accusatory tone, "Guests? Have you finally lost it, Mom? Have you forgotten what this guy and the rest did to Inez?"
Inez felt a surge of pride and warmth in her heart when she heard Scarlet’s words. At least someone in the pack was willing to stand up for her.
"Scarlet!" Maria hissed at her younger daughter when she didn’t seem to be backing down; she simply turned to look at her oldest. "Do you have nothing to say about this?"
"Yeah, I do." Inez nodded and replied before turning to look at Blake and stating in a cold voice, "Goodbye and get lost."
She knew why Blake was here, and she didn’t like it.
It was one thing that Dominic and the boys had tried to govern her life when she was tied and bound by a contract but Inez wasn’t happy with their actions of forcing her to submit to their will when she clearly had no intentions of doing so anymore.
