Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 260

Chapter 260: 260-She Locked Him Out

Clementine:

Once we reached the house, Haiden stepped ahead and opened the door for us. The energy in the north felt strange. Maybe it was because we hadn’t been here for a few days, but I wasn’t sure. There was something different. I noticed there weren’t many fleshmingos around either.

Maybe we arrived when they were off somewhere else. Whatever the case, we rushed inside to avoid attracting their attention, since we had no idea how narrow this underground space was going to be. Was it a clear passage, like a highway, or more like a mine? We had no clue. If any monster got in there with us and it was too narrow, we’d be trapped.

Once we all stepped inside, Troy locked the door. Then we began walking toward the basement.

The moment we reached the small area leading to the basement door, I noticed a closet had been knocked over. A distant memory from my previous time in the north hit me hard.

"Oh," I gasped.

"what is going on?" Yorick asked, probably after noticing the look on my face.

"Remember I told you guys about the house where a closet was knocked over and something was in the basement? And then I found those monsters," I snapped my fingers, trying to recall more details.

"Earth Eaters," Haiden added, helping me remember what we’d learned from Ian last time.

"I feel like there are many houses with these tunnels, and they all connect at one point. Those things must’ve come from there," I agreed with Haiden.

I remembered that was exactly the last time things were right between us and Ian, especially between me and him. After that, everything went downhill.

"Alright," Yorick said, turning to Ian almost reluctantly. "He also said they don’t come alone," Yorick recalled, still watching Ian, waiting for him to add something.

But Ian didn’t seem the least bit interested.

"Do you think those things come from basements?" Troy asked, glancing at me.

I looked around and noticed Oriana holding my hand too tightly, refusing to let go. It was hard to explore while she clung to me, and I had to practically drag her along.

I guess all of us were expecting a little bit of information from Ian, but after how he had acted, it was clear he’d rather avoid us.

"Okay, you know what, guys? Let’s just go. We’ll see once we’re there," I said, feeling a little defeated. I just hoped this underground passage wasn’t as closed off as we imagined. Maybe it would be more like a proper tunnel, well-structured ones, maybe.

Troy and Haiden stepped ahead while Yorick moved the closet out of the way. Soon, they were all standing in front of the door. I joined Oriana and tried to free my hand, because if we wanted to survive, we’d need both hands to fight. She reluctantly let go, but the back of her hand still brushed against mine, as if ready to hold it again.
