Ajax and Laxus came running as soon as they realised that there was something amiss. Their instincts had been top-notch from the day he had met them. Laxus frowned at him but wisely stayed quiet without asking Killian to calm down. Because at that moment, Killian knew that there was no way he would be able to control his anger.
"Stay back," he warned the two men. If they tried to stop him now, they might end up getting caught in the fray.
Laxus stepped forward, but Ajax caught him by the back of his collar and pulled him back. A smart move, truly.
Dominance rolled off him like a wild tornado, swirling around as if determined to raze everything in his path. It silenced the crowd, sending a wave of anxiety through the entire banquet hall, cutting off the music and the soft murmur of the shifters.
"Where is Dawson?" He rumbled, his eyes flickering around the entire banquet hall. But there was no hint of their alpha; that fucker seemed to have disappeared. His beast rushed to the surface, and his voice boomed through the crowd, "Where the fuck is your alpha!?"
He stalked through the banquet hall, his vision turning red because of the rage that was swimming within his veins. The Silver Dawn Pack scampered backwards; most of the elderly cowered against the floor tiles, submission rippled through the air as Killian’s dominance rolled over the entire pack. But at that moment, he couldn’t care about their fear or their old age.
He needed fucking answers.
"DAWSON!" Killian roared, his voice cutting through the booming silence. "Come out and fight me, you motherfucker."
Ajax’s voice cuts through the raging thoughts in his head. The man on the left is Dawson’s beta. I heard him talk about Scarlet. Most probably, he knows why the two women were taken to the prison cell.
His world came to a stop, and Killian turned to look at the beta, his beast hardly contained within him. He wanted to lunge to the surface and rip the head off of the cowering man in front of them, but they couldn’t do that. Because this man was the only one who could prove that Inez was innocent, even he wouldn’t be able to break her out of the council’s prison without firm and ironclad evidence.
He walked over to the man. Catching him by the collar, he questioned, "What did you do!?"
The hall turned even quieter. A chill surged through the entire pack, and the casting shadows looked even more unnatural than they did before.
