Chapter 41: Caught in trouble
All other thoughts escaped Inez’s head as she stared at the man with a stunned look in her eyes. But a second later, she composed herself and stated, "I have no idea what you are talking about."
"Is that so?" Killian remarked with a curl of his lips and just as she was about to nod, the man tilted his head to one side and stated, "Then if I were to call Alpha Cherith, I will not find anything unusual about your sudden appearance in this gas station that’s like six hours away from your territory?"
When Inez didn’t reply, the man actually took out his phone and seemed prepared to call Dominic.
"Stop!" Inez pinched the bridge of her nose. She didn’t trap herself in the trash bags with a hell lot of shit thrown inside just to be dragged back to the hellhole she wanted to escape. She eyed the man who had gotten hold of her weakness and questioned, "What do you want?"
"Your help."
"I am not a healer," Inez deadpanned with a blank expression, though she could indeed heal this man, but she had no desire to do so. The lycan had done nothing but piss her royally off every time they met and now he even went as low as to threaten her.
So forgive her if she really had no desire to put up with his bullshit at that moment.
"I am not looking for one at the moment either," the man tried to grin, but a second later he grimaced and said, "I need you to take me out of here. I was a tad bit careless and ended up falling into a well-thought-out trap dug by the hyenas and almost got my neck slitted."
"The last thing I know, they were chasing me down the south pavilion street, though I threw them off my scent; I can’t take any more risks by staying on the street."
