Chapter 323: Picking Up Cheesy Lines
It feels like they are not even living here.
This was what his beast deduced after taking a look around the entire mansion. There was too little life in this
mansion. Even if they had stretched themselves hard to prove that their lives were properly integrated with the
humans, Killian could sense that something was lacking. And unless these people were outright fools, they would
also notice it.
They had another reason for bringinghere.
His beast grunted in acknowledgement. You have becexceptionally smart now that you have started
listening tomore.
Killian ignored him. Turning around, he looked at the woman who was working in the kitchen. His lips curved up
in a flirty smile as he walked over to her, "What are you preparing?"
"I thought you two might be hungry, so | prepared scarbonara and mashed potatoes, Alpha Sokolov,"
replied Lisa, her breathing turning rigid and shallow.
"Thank you for looking out for the two of us. It looks delicious," He told Lisa, digging in the side that he had
buried ever since he met with Inez. Now that he had someone he cared for, Killian felt it was too weird to flirt
with someone else. Behind him, Finn stiffened.
He glanced at him with a look of sheer disbelief on his face, but it was not too blatant.
He must be thinking that you have lost your mind, his beast tittered. Glad someone was finding this funny.
Lisa, however, glanced away. "Thank you for the praise, Alpha Sokolov."
Killian smiled at the woman. Reaching out, he tucked a strand of her hair, mentally swearing that he was going
to wash his hands clean with a sanitiser once he returned home. "I am surprised that you aren't mated. A woman
as beautiful and handy in the kitchen as you should have been snagged by a male by now." He kept his voice
light and full of charm. Usually, any woman would have been flattered with this alone, but not Lisa.
She cleared her throat and glanced at Drakon, who was sitting on the couch with Finn, before turning to look at

"Of course," Killian agreed with her. Keeping his tone light, he walked around the aisle. He didn’t say anything to
the woman but kept filing her reactions and responses in his mental database. Something was going on here.
Killian glanced at Finn, whose eyes were filled with reluctance, but when he glared at him, Finn sighed and got to
his feet. He took Lisa’s hand in his and kissed the back of it. "Thank you for your hospitality. | have to say that it's
really sweet of you. Letting us stay in your hand even preparing a meal for us. Isn't that right, Alpha?"
"Indeed." Killian sat down next to Drakon. He noticed the man going stiff as he clenched his hands on his lap
However, Killian didn’t acknowledge the abnormality and turned to look at the woman in the kitchen. He noticed
how Finn had charmed the woman with his gentlemanly attitude, or maybe it was him whom she was resistant
to. Because now that woman was blushing and giggling like a little schoolgirl.
"Just say that you are jealous that your charm didn’t work,” his beast’s mocking voice echoed in his head, and
Killian ignored it altogether.
His beast could say whatever he wanted, but he knew that the woman was simply resistant to him, and she had
a reason for that. Her flushed face, batting eyelashes and softened tone told another story from the response
that she gave him. Didn't she say that a man would only make her distracted? But from the flirty looks that she
was sharing with Finn, it didn’t seem like she was resistant to having a man in her life.
So why the lies?
"Shall we take a look at where you will be staying?" Drakon stood up and shot a glance at Lisa, who stiffened and
pulled away from Finn even though she was unwilling.
"Sure." Killian stood up and followed Lisa to the second floor. The woman pointed to the three rooms that were
side by side and said to them, "These three rooms are guest rooms. You can pick one which you want."
"What about you?" Finn asked. "Where do you sleep?"
The woman blushed. "On the right. That room belongs to me."
Finn glanced at the room that was at the end of the corridor and nodded. He leaned in closer and smiled at Lisa,
"Are you up for sharing? | am scared of the dark."

If only his beta were a bit more open-minded.
But he wasn't.
So here they were.
Unfortunately.
Why did he even make him his beta, though?
Because he is the only one who can withstand your antics.
