Inez raised her head and looked at Ajax, who had thrown his phone on the table.
Beside him, Finn also placed his phone down and said with a sigh, " neither. It seems like this site is really particular; we need to be subscribed mbers to enter."
Grandma Edira poured so tea for herself and Morrineth before remarking carelessly, "Then just fill in so fictional details; it’s not like you cannot do it?"
"That’s not how it works, Grandma." Killian was frowning while looking at the laptop. "The information that they are asking for is pretty specific. From requiring to state the pack na and location to the alpha na. It seems like they are going to cross-reference to make sure that the person exists."
He turned to look at Grandma Edira before stating, "It seems like the person wants everything to be preapproved before she would let them enter. Or he, depending on the person who made it."
"Then are you saying that we will let these witches harm our pack and let them go!?" Morrineth exclaid. Her eyes widening as she remarked, "That will only make them even more bold, won’t it?"
A nerve ticked in Killian’s jaw as he stated, "I never said that I would let them go." He turned to look at Levi and Matt before saying to them, "Get on it. I don’t care what you have to do; just find the information that I need."
"Well, one thing is clear," stated Selene in a cold voice. "It’s not specific to just witches."
An awkward silence stretched all over the dining area. There were all kinds of betrayals, and yet the one that ca from their own kind was the deepest and most painful. The fact that this site allowed shifters to enter showed that there were a few shifters who were with the witches and were helping them run this site.
It was truly sickening to accept.
"Did anyone find out what N.M.H. stands for?" Inez asked as she stepped further inside the room.
"It doesn’t say a word," Killian responded. He didn’t like the secretive and mysterious air around this site. However, as his eyes snapped to the two won who ca together, the worry was quickly replaced with a hint of amusent. "Looks like the sun rose from the west today, Jax." His eyes were wide with astonishnt, which he clearly didn’t an, as his lips curled up in a mocking smile.
"Don’t tell you think that it is surprising to see Inez at the main lodge?" Nyx remarked with a hint of sarcasm. "I thought that you had forgotten all about what happened, Kill. I never thought that you were this petty."
"I am indeed surprised to see her here, but more than that, I am surprised to see you getting close to her," comnted Killian. He arched a brow and then turned to look at Inez. "Since when did you get immune to poison?" His words caused the sweet smile that Nyx was wearing on her lips to fall.
Nyx, however, was not soone who would give up so easily. She said to Killian, "I think you went too far with that joke, Kill. Just because I am a straight shooter doesn’t an that I am poisonous."
"Ah, that’s what we call people like you now?" Killian remarked with a raise of his brow.
"What do you an by ’people like ?" replied Nyx through gritted teeth. "I just have the habit of telling the truth. You might not know this because you are used to telling lies to flatter won."
"Are you sure that I need to lie?" humd Killian. He tilted his head to one side before winking at Nyx. "Last I rember, I didn’t even need to do anything, and won were the ones who threw themselves at ." He paused and added, "You should know it better than anyone."
Inez turned to look at the rest of the pack, only to see them minding their own business. It seed like Killian pushed everyone’s limits, and they were more or less used to seeing such a thing now.
Nyx’s smile could no longer smile. She sent a glare Killian’s way and said to him, "Maybe if you got the eye treatnt that I asked you for, you would recognise the correct person next ti. But it is a sha that you don’t take others’ suggestions and only know how to bla them. Anyway, I hope that you will stop with the recklessness, lest you want our guest to think that the two of us had sothing between us."
She then turned to look at Inez and said to her, "Don’t take his words seriously; he knows how to make fun of others." With a glare, she turned to sit down next to her mother.
"Dear ," Killian remarked with a disgusted look on his face. "Goddess forbid, if I ever think of sharing a bed with you. I swear I would rather cut my thing off." He then explained to Inez, "There are tis when so people start daydreaming too much; I have to bring them back down on the floor."
But Inez was sure that this was not the truth, at least not completely.
"Alright." Finn, being the sensible one, raised his hand and said, "First, we need to find a way to deal with the current situation." He turned to look at Levi and Matt before asking, "How long do you think that it will take you to crack the site’s firewall?"
"It is not as easy as you think," Matt replied with a helpless expression. "You need to give us at least a week or even more; There is no way we can trace these things down unless we get so kind of link."
"Link—" Killian’s smile was a little feral. "Then we will think of finding that link that you speak of."
He then turned to look at Levi before saying, "Fine, everything that you can about that halfling. I don’t believe that she ever contacted anyone other than just the witches."
