Killian laughed. "You give me too much praise," he said to her. "I am different from you. But you, on the other hand, looked so cute and defenceless when those females attacked you. They must have been fooled by how adorable you looked. That's why they attacked you without thinking twice. And the way you caught them in a headlock and bit off a chunk of flesh–how did you do it?"
He asked, sounding genuinely confused.
"Did what?" Inez asked with a frown.
"How did you shift from being cute to fierce in just one second?" he replied, and it only made Inez frown even harder.
Inez paused. She slowly turned to look at the man beside her, and while taking offence to his words, she said to him, "I am not cute." Did he even look at her carefully? She was a siren. A siren was supposed to be beautiful and seductive. How could she be cute?
Looking at her scowl at him, Killian smiled at her. "You are so many things, Inez. And you are definitely cute."
"I am a siren."
