Chapter 154: Hunt for Siren
Inez stiffened. She knew that there was a very good chance that the man was not even talking about her. There might be another siren living in or around the territory, as she had always kept to herself and never stepped out or showed her powers, but at the same time, she was worried.
What if this man was talking about her?
"A siren?" Killian mused as if a siren were not standing next to him. He tilted his head to one side and hummed, "Well—I haven’t seen one, but if you are suspicious, then you are free to search my territory or the ocean if you want."
Inez inhaled a bit sharply, thankful for the commotion that was going around her because if not, someone would have noticed something amiss. She knew that Killian said those words because he wanted to throw Noah off her trail, but at the same time, she was worried.
What if the man stepped forward and claimed that she was the siren? What if he knew it already?
Somewhere, she knew that Killian would not let them take her away, but at the same time, she couldn’t help but be scared of the possibilities.
She pursed her lips and looked at Killian, who calmly glanced at her; the man didn’t seem worried, as his eyes were still twinkling with the same teasing glint, which made her wonder if he already had a plan in his mind.
Noah, too, seemed to have the same thought because Killian looked way too calm. He narrowed his eyes at the pack members of the Red Blood Hill and then said to them, "If any of you knows anything about the siren, you should step forward and let us know about it." His eyes pierced through the many lycans who stood in front of him.
Edira took the lead as she shook her head and answered, "We haven’t. If we had heard anything about a siren, then we would have let the council know." As she finished speaking, she turned around and looked at the pack members behind her.
