Chapter 144: Fixed
"Well, we will hunt down the person who posted that video very soon," said Inez as she corrected him. She paused before saying, "Promise me that you will never see the video. Don’t even think of watching it, not even once." Maybe it was stupid, but she didn’t want him to see her condition back then. Cornered like a little animal who had nowhere to run. Helpless and terrified.
She didn’t want him to think that she was a fool to keep trusting and hoping for Dominic to change for the better and trust her.
Killian understood why she was requesting him not to look at the video, and he nodded at her. He cupped her cheek and said to her, "I will never look down on you, Inez."
She was not the kind of woman upon whom he could look down.
"Just promise me."
A part of Killian wanted to watch the video; he wanted to see what kind of torment that Dominic had made Inez go through, such that he could recreate it when he got his hands on Dominic. He wanted to see what she had gone through, but he couldn’t refuse her.
He couldn’t even bring himself to deny it, not when she was looking at him with those eyes, which were filled with nothing but pain. "I promise I will not watch it, and I will bar anyone from seeing it either."
She swallowed hard. "Thank you." Inez knew that since the man had promised it, he would never break her trust. The man smiled at her as he reached out and embraced her. Inez didn’t know what to do with such an intimate action; she was fine with sleeping with Killian, but she was a bit uncomfortable with such caring actions.
However, with the man engulfing her, her siren calmed down as Killian’s warmth and scent covered them from head to toe.
