Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 319

Chapter 319: Oh Too Human

Killian was aware of this. According to the information that Seth had given to him, the Silver Dawn Pack had only eighty-four families. Far less than what a strong and able pack that could defend itself would have. But that was only on paper.

"And what about the human authorities? They don’t care that there are a bunch of shifters living near them?"

"That’s quite simple. Our ancestors moved here when no such nonsense as Zealots existed," explained Drakon. "Our forefathers learned how to integrate themselves into the human community, and we slowly and steadily made our way right into the heart of this human community. We have a history older than the zealots could ever have, so they leave us alone. Because we have everything that we need to pass off as humans. Jobs, resources, education, degrees and even our own little chess club— the Zealots don’t doubt us for a second. If anything, they just take us as some preppy humans who don’t like trespassers and guests." He sounded quite pleased about it.

The car started to slow down as they passed by a family of four; the two human children raised their hands and waved at Drakon, who waved back at them with apparent ease as if he did it every day.

"And you have also allowed humans to stay with you?" Finn observed.

"Well, it’s easy that way. The Zealots get doubtful if we don’t let human families move into homes, shelters or apartments that are up for sale. So we can only let them in the city and stay with us," explained Drakon.

Killian frowned. "And what about—if one of you shifts in the presence of the humans?"

"That has never happened. Not for like fifty years, and when it happened the last time, we took care of it," replied Drakon. "Ever since then, we have worked hard on our control until we chained our beasts instead of letting them chain us."

Killian studied the profile of the man in front of him. He was a confident man, despite being very young, no more than twenty-seven years old, and yet he carried himself with such grace and an air of confidence that he looked way different from any other shifter who had chained his beast. There was no wild glint in his eyes as if his beast was pressing against him, trying to free itself of the restraints. Even the desire to look for the wilderness was missing.

And that’s what makes these people dangerous. His beast spoke in his mind.

And honestly? Killian agreed with him. There had been shifters who did try to rein in their beasts, but they had never succeeded. If anything, those shifters lost their minds and became rogues.

"Is that why you have picked up titles from the human law judiciary?" Killian commented, remembering the man who greeted him and Finn at the entrance of the city. He called himself—

’Law enforcement’ was a term that had little to do with the shifters. After all, they had had free will for years—maybe centuries. To believe that a pack actually started following the laws and rules set by humans was something strange. Since when did shifters start suppressing their instincts and following human laws and policies? 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
