"Are you ready?" Selene arrived at the lodge where Inez was staying, as Killian was busy securing the boundaries
of the pack to make sure that no issue would arise tonight. She peered inside the lodge with Laxus behind her;
however, when the man made a move to walk inside the lodge, she turned and snapped at him, "You stay here."
The man looked at her with an expression of sheer hurt, but Selene remained unbothered. She turned around
and then moved her wheelchair inside the living hall; the door closed behind her as she raised her head and
called Inez, "You ready, Inez?"
When Selene didn’t hear a response, she was about to turn around and ask Laxus to cinside. As much as
she would have loved to depend on herself rather than on anyone else, Selene knew that she was as close to
walking upstairs like a normal person as shifters befriending witches.
But before she could turn her wheelchair around, the sound of footsteps echoed behind her, and Selene raised
her head. When she saw Inez walking down, dressed in the royal blue evening gown, her eyes couldn't help but
widen in surprise.
"You look beautiful," Selene breathed as Inez stepped down the last stair.
Inez looked down. She knew that Selene was speaking the truth; the sincerity in her eyes was blinding, but even
when the compliment was so raw and honest, Inez couldn't accept it freely. It wasn’t her fault. Spend a good
three years with a pack that treats you like trash, and you will start having doubts about your own worth.
"Thanks," said Inez as she glanced at Selene and heaved a sigh of relief. "I am glad that you decided against
wearing those old gowns."
Selene smiled. A hint of amusement tinged her eyes as she remarked, "I believe those dresses will do a much
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbetter job as rags rather than as my clothes."
Her words brought the reassurance that Inez had been looking forward to for the last few weeks. She lowered
her head and grinned at Selene before saying to her, "You are right about that." A pause and then, "But why are
you here?"
They were supposed to meet at the building where the party was being held. Why did Selene clooking for
her?
"Isn’t it because my brother is being a busy bastard?" Selene rolled her eyes as she waved the small box that
she was holding. "Kill askedto buy a necklace set for you. He said that he has no idea about fashion and
askedto help him choose one. He was going to give it to you before the party, but then he got too busy with
the arrangements and forgot all about it. | could only bring it here with me, or else it will beca waste."
"What's the point of handing it to you after the party is over?" She added with an eye roll.
Inez took the box that the woman was holding out. She opened it and saw a blue diamond necklace with a pair of
earrings. It looked really pretty.
"Go on," said Selene.
Inez wore the necklace around her neck. "How does it look?"
"It does add a subtle charm to the entire look," Selene remarked, her lips creasing upwards, looking quite
satisfied with her choice. She then glanced at the clock on the wall before saying to Inez, "We should go now; if
we delay any longer, Morrineth will cafter us with a dagger in her hands. She can be quite tic when
she wants to."
Inez chuckled. Running a hand down her dress, she said, "You are right." That woman did have a flair for
tics.
The two of them walked out of the lodge, and Inez was quite surprised to see Laxus standing outside. The man
bowed his head slightly when he saw Inez looking at him before moving to stand behind Selene.
In the past, Inez believed that his absolute devotion toward Selene was due to his feelings for her, but after
finding out what his brother had done to Selene, Inez understood that his devotion cout of guilt more than
just his feelings. If he had stowards Selene.
The three of them arrived at the building, which wasn’t far from their lodges, but at the stnot as close
as they would have liked. Especially Inez. By the tthey were ten steps away from the ballroom, she was
panting under the weight of the gown that she was wearing, plus the high heels that she was wearing were
digging into her feet. If not for the fact that she was surrounded by all kinds of shifters, she would have thrown
the heels aside and then turned right back around.
Morrineth could enjoy her party on
her own. Inez alien froin

"It seems like you are not happy," remarked Selene with a teasing look in her eyes.

and the heavy dress was now

was the relief of the air conditioner.
All the time, she had complained about winter and the way her fingers froze? She wanted to take it all back.
Selene chuckled beside her. She said to her, "You are complaining already? The evening has not even started
yet.”
Inez was not a whiner, but at that moment, she wanted to whine. Hard.
