Rejected Luna: Untamed Desire Of The Lycan Alpha novel Chapter 412

412 /415

"Oh dear moon goddess," Henley muttered as he whipped his head forward. "Well, someone does have it worse than us."

Behind them, Selene's wheelchair was rattling violently as Fenric, still in his wolf form, pushed it forward. His teeth were bared, and from his pants, it was clear that his muscles were panting with exhaustion. Morrineth followed closely behind him. Her breathing was sharp, and her neatly tied bun was coming open, with locks flying awry.

The two of them looked more panicked than anyone, and honestly, somewhere deep in her heart, Inez was rather pleased to see the two of them like this.

"Centre path." Inez finally decided as they arrived at the three cross paths that were in front of them.

"How do you know that?" Morrineth questioned, panting.

"I am getting this vibe," Inez shot back coolly. "And I think that after what happened, we have established that my gut feelings are tragically accurate."

This time around, neither Morrineth nor Fenric fired any scathing remark back; in fact, the two of them were flushed red in shame. Inez looked past them, and she realised that most of the pack members were not with them, which made her worried. She hoped that they were following them, or else there was a very good chance that someone might die today.

They veered sharply to the left, plunging straight into a narrow ravine, where walls made from rocks were pressing in from both sides. Behind them, they could still hear the amorphous shrieking at them in rage as it tried to enter the ravine after them, but couldn't because of its enormous form. Its form slammed against the walls as it tried to break in, causing the rock to splatter just as its form started to reform due to the impact and the resistance it was facing.

"Ha!" Henley yelled over his shoulder. "How do you like that? I thought that you could suck in anything, you abomination?"

He hadn't even finished speaking when the amorphous started to swallow the chunks of the rock walls.

"Oh," he muttered. "That is definitely on me."

A sudden whistle cut through the noise, and three figures charged toward them from the side, landing right in front of them. They landed smoothly in front of their group despite the chaos that was going on behind them.

Levi unsheathed his claws, ready to attack as he skidded to a halt.

"Relax, it's us," a voice called cheerfully. "You need to put those claws away unless you want to stab me to death, but if you want to do that, then you at least need to buy me my last supper. That's the least I deserve for this unjust death, or else I am going to haunt you to death."

Henley groaned. "Matt."

Matt walked out past the tangled vines. He straightened up and then grinned at them wildly. Dirt was smeared across his face, and it seemed like he had done a really poor job in cleaning it because the spot that should have been cleaned looked even dirtier. "You know what, I have no idea what that thing is, but..." He gestured vaguely at the amorphous behind them and stated in a low voice, "But I am telling you, this was not on my scouting card."
