Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 498

Chapter 498: 498-They Caged Her

Haiden:

For the first time since we arrived in the living room, Fauna lifted her head to look at me.

It was her silent way of reminding me that she had told me exactly that the night before, and I had kicked her out of the room and insulted her badly.

"Are you sure? I mean, his dead body was not found," the headmaster questioned.

I noticed Ian shift anxiously on the couch.

"Excuse me," he muttered, getting up and hurrying toward the exit.

His father paused briefly to look at his son, then turned back to my uncle for more information.

"Yeah, I know his dead body was not found, but his blood was everywhere in the mansion. It seems like his body was dragged out and taken away for humiliation," my uncle finished.

"Excuse me," I said as I stood and followed Ian.

I had heard everything my uncle said, and honestly, I did not believe him either.

Once I was outside the mansion, I saw Ian pacing anxiously, muttering under his breath.

"Isn’t that what Fauna told you?" he asked, turning to me sharply.

"Yeah, she did," I confirmed, and he began to shake his head in disbelief.

"This man is lying. They are all lying, and—" he started to raise his voice while pointing at the mansion, but I grabbed his hand, lowered it, and looked at him, signaling for him to stay quiet.

"I know. I know what you’re saying is true. There is no way this man is telling the truth, because his daughter already warned us, but we need to keep our voices lower," I told Ian, pulling him farther into the garden.

Ian pulled free and turned to face me.

He grabbed my jacket.

"We need to speak with Fauna and ask her what else she knows," he insisted.

I felt guilty because she had tried to tell me things the night before.

"Right, she told me she would somehow get Nook’s address," I said, remembering her words, which brought a relieved look to Ian’s face.

He slowly let go of my jacket, then pointed at the mansion again.

"Then let’s go back and speak with her, and ask how quickly she can get it for us," Ian urged.

I felt like I was the reason most things had fallen apart at this point.

If I had put my anger aside and communicated properly with Fauna, I would not be standing in front of Ian with no answers.

"Let’s go," Ian repeated, patting my back and pulling me from my thoughts.

We started walking toward the mansion again.

When we reached it, breakfast was being served.

I scanned the crowd, but I did not see Fauna anywhere.

Even Ian looked at me in confusion.

We assumed she had gone to her room.

"Maybe she’s in her room," I whispered to Ian.

"Should we wait for her to come out, or do you want to go to her room?" I asked, leaning closer so only he could hear.

"Food is served," Patrick called, and we turned toward him.
