Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 345

Chapter 345: 345-We Lost Our Chance

Clementine:

We were in shock. Everyone thought we would come out of this nonsense now that we had been given a chance.

But when the headmaster announced that there had been one vote against the surrender, we all started looking around.

Our eyes landed on Oriana first. She was the only one who hadn’t been honest in a way that suggested she cared about anyone.

She could be vindictive, and she might also want to go back, probably to see this monster and seek its help.

"It has to be Oriana," Renee muttered from behind me.

Although I believed it, a part of me wasn’t sure I could truly accept it.

While everyone glared at Oriana, my eyes briefly shifted to Joshua.

"This is not fair. We don’t want to go back to North," Renee spoke.

"You were given a chance, and it’s ruined. If you want to reboot, you can use your second chance," the headmaster replied, and almost everyone started nodding.

"There will be no need," Ian interrupted.

As soon as he said that, I could already see that the others were beginning to stir trouble with him.

"Very well done. Then we will end this conversation here. Dinner will be served, you will eat, and then you will head to separate rooms," the headmaster announced, laying down rules as if nothing had happened, as if we hadn’t nearly reached the door before being pulled back.

Everyone looked defeated. Some glared at Ian for agreeing too quickly, while others had teary eyes.

And then there was Oriana, anxiously scanning everyone’s expressions, likely aware she would bear the blame for that one vote.

"Now, since there is a monster, Shadow Earth Eater, who controls minds and people, we don’t know if it has controlled anyone else," the headmaster said, his eyes locking on me.

I noticed the way others glanced at me and then back at him, trying to understand what he was implying.

"But it’s better if all of you sleep in separate rooms for your safety until we eliminate this threat. Have your dinner and then come to the main road. We will take you to different areas with separate rooms for each of you," the headmaster announced briefly before walking away.

Things were changing rapidly.

I began to wonder if we had made a mistake by openly declaring war against the ringleaders and the headmaster before gathering all the evidence ourselves.

Once he left, the ringleaders returned to their basement.

We were told to stay in the hall because one of us might be controlled by the monster.

The headmaster tried to make it seem like I was causing trouble, making others fear going north, but the others knew the truth, they wanted to go back themselves.

"Who could have done it?" Mira snapped angrily.

Everyone immediately turned toward Oriana.
