Chapter 283: Inez’s Father: A Dive To The Past (2)

Inez blinked her eyes. Staring at the woman in front of her, she didn’t know who this woman was, but the way the woman was looking at her screamed that she did know her.

"Do you know her?" her husband asked as he turned and looked at his wife. He sounded confused because he didn’t and hadn’t seen Inez in this town, and his tone mirrored Inez’s confusion to a tee because she, too, didn’t understand why the woman was staring at her as if she had seen her before when they had never met.

The woman tugged the shawl around her shoulders and stepped forward. She took a look at Inez and then turned to look at her husband before smiling. She said, "Of course. I don’t know her. It was just a momentary thing. I thought she was someone I knew, but it turns out that I was mistaken."

She then turned to look at Inez and said to her, "I am sorry about that, miss."

"Its okay," Inez replied, but something about the way the woman was looking at her made her quite sure that she was lying. Dropping her phone on the ground, she turned on her feet and headed a bit further, allowing the woman and the man to have the space to discuss.

Once she had walked quite far away, the man turned to look at the woman and questioned, "What was that all about? I am quite sure that you knew her."

He knew his wife well enough to understand her little actions.

"I can’t say that I know her," said the woman, her expression was that of conflict as she fiddled with the little tassels of her shawl. "You remember that man—the one who was the slave of that rich woman? The alpha female who lived here."

As soon as the words left her mouth, the man tensed beside her and snorted. "You mean that manwhore?"

"He wasn’t a manwhore—he was a slave purchased and used by the alpha females for their fun," snorted the woman as she corrected her husband. "I heard that he was a siren, and he was caught by that alpha female who used him as a means of entertaining herself and others. Poor guy, have you forgotten the scars on his back and body? He always looked as if he were suffering in pain. The maids who worked for that female alpha told me that the woman used whips on the siren before he escaped from her clutches."

"That girl—she looked a little like that female alpha."

"What are you talking about? That woman had black hair and blue eyes—that girl has platinum blonde hair with green eyes—she looks nothing like that female alpha. I did see her once, even when the woman lived with her nose high up in the air," retorted the man. He reached out to pick up the hammer that was lying on the table in front of him.

"Maybe it’s because she is her daughter? That siren had platinum blonde hair too, didn’t he?" the woman chimed in.

"Did he?" Her husband questioned. He then turned to look at his wife and asked, "Did that girl smell like a siren?"

"No, she smelled like a wolf—a weak half one." The woman, being a shifter, could smell Inez’s scent and knew that the woman was not an alpha. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Frustration bubbled high in Inez’s heart and soul as she walked back to the RV. Something—the very nagging feeling in her heart told her that the Ria, the woman spoken of, was her mother, Maria Sinclair. But—

She is an omega, a submissive wolf; how can she be the female alpha the woman spoke of? Inez thought agitatedly.

There were ways—many written in the ancient textbooks. I cannot remember them at the moment, but I do recall that there were all kinds of curses that can reduce a proud alpha to an omega. However, I do admit that if that’s what happened to your mother, she must have pissed off someone like a Grand Sage or a Great Witch. These curses are not simple and cannot be cast by lesser beings.

’You are not helping,’ snapped Inez. She thought of her mother; a part kept telling her that maybe she was wrong altogether. That Maria Sinclair was not Alpha Ria, but at the same time, she could not shake off this nagging feeling in her chest. She had a feeling that Maria was certainly Ria.

But if she was Ria and she was the one who trapped her father as a slave and used him as one—what about all the torment that she made Inez go through all these years?
