Chapter 313: Secrets Unveiling
Dominic slowly turned and looked at the man sitting next to him. He narrowed his eyes and questioned, "I hope
—you are not suggesting that one of us was responsible for administering this attack?"
Killian simply grinned at the man’s question. "I never suggested that, but at least we will be able to eradicate
this suspicion that it was one of us. There is nothing wrong with clearing off the suspicion, right?"
"You are trying to muddle the situation by directing suspicion to us!" Elder Norman started with a growl. "You
think that you can do just about anything just because Seth has been wiping your ass all these years?"
"There is no need for you to be upset, Elder Norman." Killian tilted his head to the left. "This is just a simple step,
one that can help us bring the culprit to light. After all, Alpha Remy is one of us. The fact that he has lost his
mate must have brought him great grief, and as his dear friends, the least we can do is to make sure that he will
get sounce of comfort by getting the nof the culprit who killed his mate."
"We already have a culprit. No, two of them—"
Killian simply rolled his eyes. He clicked his tongue and stated, "Only fools will believe that two women who were
silly enough to be captured at the crscene were involved in the killing of Lola." A pause, and with a wicked
grin, he stated, "And | don’t see any reason why you are so strangely against my suggestion. Unless you are
scared that it might bring your deepest, darkest secrets out?"
No one said a word, but at the stime, they were not happy with the suggestion either. No one truly liked
Alpha Remy. The man was too sly, and his actions were hardly worthy of being a shifter. The way he flexibly
shifted anywhere—many shifters looked down on him due to this. So, no one was really sorry about him losing
his mate.
Elder Norman huffed. "You can try to baitas much as you want, but | have done nothing wrong to be scared
of."
Killian shot him a wicked grin. "That's the spirit."
"Senda detailed report on what you all were doing three weeks prior to the murder, including on the day it
happened," commanded Seth. "Anyone who tries to sneak their way out of this will be strictly punished. The
meeting is hereby adjourned."
Even with the meeting coming to an end, Killian couldn't shake off the annoyance and frustration that was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbuilding at the back of his neck. Usually, he felt better after pulling the legs of these elders, but today, even this
was not enough to make him feel any better. It felt weird. Like ssort of evil foreboding.
"You should be a bit more polite to the elders," said Noah as he got to his feet. With his expression ever so calm,
he stated, "Even if your blood is as barbaric as it can get, you can still act civil."
"And here | thought that you knew everything about lycans." Killian moved past the round table. Heading
straight to the oak doors as he tried to shake off the tail that had caught onto him. "Lycans do not respect
anyone who does not deserve it."
"They are the elders—"
"Then letcorrect myself." Killian paused and turned to look at the man behind him. With a sickly sweet smile,
he stated in a quiet voice, "I meant | am only going to respect them if and only if they earn my respect. Sitting in
fancy chairs and acting all lofty and mighty is not going to get them my respect."
Noah's expression turned into something twisted. Murderous even.
However, Killian knew that the man was way too disciplined to even try and attack him in the council. He was a
follower of the rules through and through.
Killian flashed him one last smile before turning around on his feet and heading out. He needed to go out and
investigate this tugging and pulling within his chest. If Inez was back in the territory, then it was well and good. If
she wasn’t, then the world better be prepared, for he would be an inch away from setting it on fire.
Countin.
Killian didn’t even blink upon hearing the words of his beast. "Should you not be stoppingfrom causing
havoc?" Usually, his beast was the one who would try to restrain his temper. But then again, there was nothing

"Having trouble?" Dominic caught up to him, noticing the frown on Killian’s face; he raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Killian—"
Before Dominic could say something, Seth walked out of the conference room and called, "Killian."
Killian and Dominic stared at one another before Killian turned to look at Seth, while Dominic offered a polite nod
to the head of the council and then turned around on his feet before walking away.
He is still hanging on even though the mate bond is weakening.
Which was weird. If Dominic cared so much about Inez, why did he embarrass and reject her? If he was going to
cling to her like that?
