Longing For My Rejected Luna novel Chapter 114

*****Jace's POV*****

"This place isn't always heavily guarded, but there are some random traps here which you don't want to fall into." I said to the guards with me as we neared the familiar black gate of the base that once held me hostage in it.

The guards nodded in understanding as we finally reached the gates. For some unknown reason, I just couldn't figure out why this place was never guarded so much. The trap can't be the only thing guarding this entire place of course.

There had to be something else guarding this place from intruders.

Just as I reached for the gate, I heard the voice of someone, "Take one more step forward and you'd be dead."

I frowned, was this person referring to us? Had they already seen us approaching?

That was bad.

As we stood there frozen in our tracks, I suddenly heard a voice I never expected to hear.

"Sir, please just let me go.... Please.."

Tasyra? She was out here?

If Tasyra was out here, didn't it mean that she was just about to escape and was caught?

The possibility of Tasyra about to escape was low, but assuring.

The voice asking her to stay put was deep and gruffy, definitely a huge guard. But it seemed to me that he was alone, giving us the perfect chance we needed.

I turned to the guards who came with me and gave them a small nod.

They understood the gesture and without warning, they used their legs to push the gate open.

We rushed in immediately, thankfully I asked the guards to come with firearms. In no time, we attacked and killed the guard.

Because of the sound of the guns, the other guards began to rush forward.

I cursed and ran towards Tasyra to pull her out since she stood frozen there.

The four of us ran out of the base and into the same forest where I ran into the first time I escaped from here.

Tasyra was looking behind us and panting nonstop and the next minute, she screamed and pushed my body sideways, the bullet flying straight to her leg and piercing through.

She yelped and fell to the floor hard.

I paused in shock, turning to reach out to her.

By now, she already began to wail loudly and I cursed again.

"Tasyra, relax, you'll be fine. Stop screaming, stop." I cooed and she breathed in through her lips heavily, trying to bite down the pain she felt.

"Call the others to come with the car!" I yelled and the guards nodded.

One of them fished out his phone to do the phone call and afterwards, returned to inform me that he already called them.

Without warning, I listed Tasyra bridal style as we sprinted towards the other side where the car would be waiting.

Finally, we saved Tasyra. One problem had successfully been sorted out and I would face the other one later.

We ran faster than usual and thankfully, when we arrived at the side of the road, we saw two cars parked there and I saw Kat highlight one of them.

She saw me holding Tasyra who wouldn't stop whimpering from the pain in her leg.

I saw Kat's expression change the moment she saw Tasyra.

"Kat open the door and let's get the hell out of here!" She nodded and hurriedly went to open the back door.

I stuffed Tasyra inside as I sprinted to my side of the car and climbed in without delay.
