Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 318

Chapter 318: Arriving At the Silver Dawn Pack

Inez frowned, but she still lowered her hands and started paying attention to what the man was singing. The humming was low. Strange. Almost like a chant, almost like he was singing a song.

"When the river bends and shadows lie,

The sea will call, the storm will reply.

Seek the name that breaks the flame,

A crown of ash, a heart full of shame.."

Inez’s breath caught in her lungs, and she found herself leaning close to the bars. "What does that mean? What name? Whose name?"

The man leaned forward, his face caught in the silver of the moonlight. For the first time, Inez saw nothing but regret and pain in the eyes of the man.

"Cain." He whispered the name like it was a curse.

But before Inez could ask him more, the sounds of the iron gates opening with a clatter broke the silence of the prison. A second later, the guards stepped inside. They swarmed the corridor, heading straight to the cell of the prisoner with whom Inez was talking.

"Number 72, it’s your turn."

The man turned to look at Inez and sighed. "So near... and yet so far..."

Inez turned to look at the guards who were taking away the man. She questioned them in a hurry, "Wait, where are you taking him?" She didn’t even get the name or the answers that she was waiting for. She needed a lead, any lead that would take her to her father or close to the truth related to the disappearance of her father. She was in so much panic that Inez didn’t even realise that she had controlled one of the guards with her voice.

One of the guards glanced at her. "To the execution grounds. His time is up." The guard then turned to look at the prisoner and shook his head with a frown. Why did I answer the question of a prisoner?

However, the man didn’t have the time to worry about these things. He turned to look at his subordinates and said, "Pull him out. The time is limited, and the executioner has prepared the stakes laden with wolfsbane. The family members of those who were killed by this man are waiting to stab him to death."

Scarlet gasped. "No!"

The man, however, didn’t resist as if he knew that this was going to come sooner or later. As he was dragged out of the prison cell, chains rattled across the stones. But as he passed by Inez’s cell, he turned to look at her one last time. His lips curled in a faint, eerie smile.

"Blood remembers, song endures,

Chains may break, but love ensures. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Find the tide, child of the two,

The sea still waits... it waits for you and just you."

Who even was Cain?

This was the reason why Killian moved far from the human settlements; they were too small. Lawns as big as the size of postage stamps when they shift into their wolf forms, and a small park with plastic swings and a slide came into view as the man turned the car to the left. The very thought of shifters staying here and raising their children in a place like this made Killian shiver.

"We are used to it," said Drakon. One street led him to another, and it was the same as the one they had come from. We sort of grew up here because our ancestors came here. Thus, how can we not be used to it?"

"That’s even worse; you mean to say that you have never been to a forest?" Killian asked.

His beast agreed with him in his head.

"No."

"Why did you move to this place? Don’t you want to shift into your wolf form and run free?"

Drakon hummed as he tapped on the steering wheel. "I would like to do that, but like I said. Our pack is really weak; we don’t have many dominant shifters. If we go out and live in the middle of nowhere, it won’t take long for a pack to challenge us and then kill us all to take our territory; it’s better this way."
