Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126: 126-She Made Him Chose

Clementine:

It was sweet, calm, and full of emotion. We all looked at Haiden, whose eyes were stretched wide, staring at the door.

"What is it?" I asked, trying to understand why he was reacting this way. Did he recognize the voice?

"Haiden, open the door."

We didn’t have to think long. Whoever the voice belonged to, it was Haiden’s loved one but it was also a lie. But Haiden didn’t seem to believe it. He looked stunned.

"Haiden, please open the door. I’ve been so lonely here."

We began to tense up, breaking formation and gathering behind Haiden. Ian eyed Yorick and Troy, eyeing them to stand behind Haiden just in case.

"Sister." Then a Haiden called out, and I realized why he was listening so intently.

"Yes, you still remember my voice?" The voice on the other side suddenly sounded so hopeful, but we knew that wasn’t true. It was Medusa.

They were the patterns we had been noticing, and one of them, we just figured out, was the one she would knock on the door to enter a closed space. I wondered if that was the case in the open as well. Did she need permission to attack someone? Or was it only for closed doors?

I rushed to the edge of the rooftop, looking down. Nobody was there. So she was behind the door this time.

"What are you doing here? I thought you had died." Haiden’s voice shook a little as he spoke to her. As soon as he stepped closer to the door, Ian and Yorick grew tense. They almost stood in front of him.

"I thought I had died. But I woke up here. And now I’m just lonely. But what are you doing here?" she asked, still carrying on the conversation.

She sounded so convincing. If we hadn’t known there was a Medusa who could do this, or that this was one of her powers, we might have opened the door for her. But we had seen her trick people before. First, all of us, when she pretended to be the ringleaders. Then Yorick, when she pretended to be his best friend.

So I knew this was a lie. This wasn’t Haiden’s sister. She was dead.

"I didn’t know I’d get to hear from you again," Haiden said, a wide smile on his lips. He looked at all of us and pointed at the door, almost reminding us that his sister was here.

"That is not your sister," Yorick said, and Haiden’s smile began to fade.

"What are you talking about? Of course it is my sister." Then the urgency in the voice broke my heart.

"Don’t listen to them. They’re not telling you the truth. The truth is that I’m alive, and I’m outside this door. All you have to do is open it and meet me."
