Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 796

Eugenia:

I'd been hiding with Bodhi for the last few hours when I finally heard the footsteps recede.

However, we didn't immediately go outside.

I could tell Bodhi was getting irritated.

He was a child, and at any moment, he could start crying or asking for food.

He must have been starving by now.

I didn't have much food with me.

I'd only grabbed whatever packaged food I could find, and most of it was nothing more than snacks.

Once I was certain everyone had left, I put Bodhi down and told him to hide in the bathroom.

"I don't wanna stand in there," he whispered.

I gestured toward his cheek with my hand, warning him that I'd slap him if he made any noise.

"Go. I'll make sure everything is safe, then I'll come back for you, okay?" I instructed and he barely nodded.

I moved toward the door and opened it, trying not to make a sound, but the hinges creaked anyway.

I stepped outside and looked down toward the foyer.

Everything was silent, but I could see dirty footprints across the floor.

Very carefully, I made my way down to the foyer.

Then I heard chains rattling in the distance and immediately stopped, wondering whether I should keep going.

After another few seconds of silence, I cautiously moved toward the source of the noise.

The chains sounded heavy, as though something was moving around while dragging them.

Eventually, I reached the exact spot where the sound was coming from.

The basement.

But the basement door had been boarded shut.

It didn't make sense. Had they come here to put something in the basement?

Was it a prisoner?

Why else would they put someone in chains? Of course, whoever was down there had to be a prisoner.

"Is anybody down there?" I whispered, taking a huge risk.

A faint growl came from inside.

I recoiled and stood outside the door, wondering whether I should open it.

I had to find out who was down there.

I couldn't stay in this house knowing someone was being held prisoner in the basement.

But since when had they started keeping prisoners here?

Then I remembered that Rosetta was in charge of everything now.

Maybe Madeline had come up with some plan to lock someone in the basement, and Rosetta had gone along with it.

After a few minutes of listening to the person moving around and the chains rattling, I decided to open the basement door.
