Chapter 254

Inez guiltily ignored the cry of her siren and turned her entire attention to Tracy. She said to her, "So that s it? Just because I am the virus of this world." God, she didn t even know how to feel about this. "I deserve to be targeted again and again?" Her voice suddenly rose a pitch higher because she felt annoyed and frustrated by the circumstances. What Fate? What Destiny? What Balance?

Were they not taught that they were all the children of the Night Goddess? So why was she the only one getting this rough treatment for no reason? It was simply unjust.

"I know that it feels a bit upsetting."

"A bit?"

"Okay, a lot upsetting," Tracy conceded. "But you need to know that this is not the time for you to mourn over the poor destiny that was written for you. If you want to survive, then you need to get stronger. Do you know how to do that?"

"Yeah, by kicking Destiny in C"

"You don t want to say that," Tracy intervened before she could finish speaking. "I know that you are quite upset, and I understand it as well. I totally understand that you wish to say some undiluted insults, but I hope you wouldn t do that because Destiny can be fickle."

No sooner did she finish speaking than there was another string of vibrations on the watch that she was wearing, which Tracy silenced by tapping on the screen.

She continued to look at her and spoke softly. "What you need to do is to learn how to use your skills and your powers. You might not believe it, but you have way too much potential. If your powers are not used properly, things can go downhill." Tracy frowned, her eyes turned dazed as if she were calculating the countless wrongs that could happen if Inez didn t learn how to use her powers.

"You speak as if I have powers that are different from others," Inez spoke with a mocking note in her voice. She was just a siren, a siren like every other. What was the point of making her stick out like a sore thumb when she clearly was nothing at all?

Tracy s eyes snapped to her, and her brows furrowed. She opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly the gems-the ones that were used as the eyes of the owls C turned red from green, and she clasped her mouth shut, looking annoyed with the entire predicament.

"I cannot tell you much, but I hope you will trust me on this," said Tracy. Her eyes were unusually stern. "You are indeed an exception in many ways, and your powers, some of which you haven t even tapped into yet, are really dangerous. So you better be careful, Inez, because there are only a few chances that will be given to you."

"What do you mean?" Inez began, but then the watch started to ring, and this time around it was not a simple vibration. It was more of a ringing, like an alarm. Tracy looked down at her and frowned. Hard.

However, whatever it was must have been serious because she didn t ignore it. She tapped on the call and answered it.

"Hello? Yeah? Like right now? Are you kidding me?" Tracy spoke in short pauses, her brows furrowing more and more with each second.

Inez was sure that the woman was going to explode any second, but instead she let out an exhausted sigh. "Fine," she snapped. "If that is what you want, then that is what you will get."

She got to her feet as she ended the call. "I am really sorry." She shot her a sympathetic look before saying to Inez, "I know this will come as abruptly as our meeting was cut short, but I hope you will stay on guard all the time. Don t try to use your powers too much, or else you will burn out."

And then she disappeared.

Her entire body rippled and morphed as if it were a 3d hologram, and then everything went quiet.

Once the room regained silence, Inez was left alone to ponder. Just what did the woman mean? No, in fact, what was she even trying to do? While Inez was thankful that Tracy had come to rescue her, what was with her cryptic messages? She didn t even tell her what powers Inez had, which could change the world.

Or did she even have these powers that Tracy spoke of?

"Don t trust her words."

Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Killian spoke up from the side. Inez raised her head and looked at him. "What?"

"I said don t trust her just yet," repeated Killian. He took the chair that Tracy had left unoccupied and said to her, "Witches are just as capable when it comes to lying as lycans. I won t trust her words just because she saved your life. There is a very good chance that she is working and reeling you in a well-designed trap."

Inez pursed her lips. As a shifter, she was indeed taught these lessons, where her teachers often told her that she should never trust a witch. Because a witch always had an intention behind her actions, she or he would never help others without a reason. So, what intentions did Tracy have to help her?

"I don t know what to think anymore," Inez spoke honestly. She felt as if she had been thrown off a loop all of a sudden. A part of her was too paranoid to believe what Tracy had told her, but at the same time, the siren side C it felt quite smug, or maybe it was content. As if she were happy that someone had finally realised her true worth.

However, Inez, who had learnt a few things from her grandmother, knew that her siren self could never be trusted. After all, sirens were creatures of pride, and their decision-making skills were always blind. There were times when sirens had started wars just because someone had looked at them in the wrong way. So Inez would rather not trust her siren and her gutfeeling.
