Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 269

Chapter 269: Fates: The Chosen Destiny (2)

Inez felt herself go red in the face due to embarrassment. She didn’t want to come out as someone who was judging Tracy for what she was, but there was this—inherent contempt that she had against the witches due to the shifter blood flowing in her veins.

But then again, Tracy had done her best to save her, and she was being rude to her by talking to her in that tone.

"I am—" Inez began, but Tracy waved her hand and said to her, "There is no need to apologise; I do understand. It’s not easy for a shifter to let go of their prejudices against witches. It would be surprising if you got used to me in a day or two."

Inez heaved a sigh of relief. The weight on her shoulders lifted, and it was only then that she realised that she was actually carrying a weight on her shoulders. She blinked her eyes and looked at the woman in front of her, and asked, "Why are you here? I mean, why are you trying to help me?"

Tracy turned her head to one side and stared at the sky as if she were reminiscing. After a long pause, she said to Inez, "I did tell you that I once had a friend who was a siren like you, but I didn’t—or more like couldn’t—help him. It led to quite a lot of mess. In fact, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that the current mess is due to the mess that we didn’t fix in the past."

She scowled at the sky and continued speaking as if she were talking with someone, "If only they had listened to what I had to say to them!"

The last of her words ended up in a growl, and Inez had no idea why the woman was talking as if she could see someone up in the sky.

"Anyway", Tracy brought her head down and smiled at Inez. She flashed a smile at her and continued, "I am here to fix the mess that happened a few years ago, but don’t worry; with me by your side, everything should be fine."

"Should be?"

"Ah, did I say ’should? I meant to say it will be fine."

There was something in Tracy’s voice which made Inez nervous. It was as if the witch saw things that she couldn’t, and that didn’t make Inez feel good at all.

The thoughts that she had jammed shut in the back of her head started to flood right the fuck out, and Inez had a hard time surviving them without drowning. When she very much wanted to give up and die, maybe that would be more peaceful.

She could suppress the memories, but how was she supposed to suppress the pain of her wolf when Nia was still alive and breathing, recovering from the rejection and trying to overcome the pain that the humiliation had caused them?

And it was all due to fate that they were suffering in such a manner. That her wolf was on the verge of disappearing and was only holding on for Inez. If fate had given them a better mate, then her wolf would be here with her, happy and filled with joy. Maybe if they had given her Killian as her mate, then maybe the two of them wouldn’t be tangled in a mess like they were now.

"I know that you blame fate, but remember this: that there is not one fate, but fates, in plural," explained Tracy as she walked past her and headed over to the lodge where Inez lived. "I know that your kind often says that if you are fated to something, no matter what you do or how hard you fight, there is no escaping it. That your destiny is already set in stone, but I believe that’s incorrect."

"In fact, even the fates believe that it is quite incorrect."
