Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 565

Chapter 565: 565-We Meet An Old Crusader

Haiden:

I had to remind Yorick time and time again that he was not supposed to put so much strain on himself.

Sure, he had made a mistake, but his parents were equally to blame.

He was taking too much stress upon himself, and honestly, it worried me.

Finally, I convinced him that I would go up with him.

But the moment we reached the top and started punching the heart of the tower, we realized it was not easy.

We kept going hard. My knuckles were bloodied, and so were his.

I knew I had to save my strength because we still had five hours.

If I fell from here, transitioning would draw attention, and I knew Fauna would be terrified if I accidentally drew monsters toward us.

As I kept thinking about it, I noticed a small crack in the heart of the tower.

I kept going with Yorick, who was groaning as blood dripped from our hands while we tried to break it.

Finally, it shattered. The stone slipped down, and Yorick caught it.

Our eyes met, and we smiled in victory.

Then my gaze shifted to the side, and I saw Fauna outside a mall.

She reached the door, and suddenly a hand came from inside, grabbed her by the neck, and pulled her in.

It all happened in a second, almost like a dream. Almost a nightmare.

"Fauna!" I screamed at the top of my lungs as I let go of the bar and dropped to the lowest level.

I held onto it and moved quickly, jumping from one bar to another until I reached the ground.

Yorick was right behind me. Mariana started to cross the road, but I knew it was not safe for her.

"No, Mariana, stay back," I shouted, stopping her from taking another step forward.

We did not know what was inside, and I did not want her, my sister-in-law, to get into trouble too.

As soon as I landed on the road, I bolted toward the mall. Yorick was right beside me.

He reached Mariana first and stopped her from moving forward.

"My sister is in there," I heard Mariana cry, protesting as we held her back.

"Then wait here and wait for our signal, okay?" Yorick told her.

They argued back and forth, but in the end, she rushed forward beside him. I realized she was safer with Yorick.

As soon as I pushed the mall doors open, I stopped.

There she was. A knife was pressed to her throat, a silver blade against her skin.

Standing behind her was a familiar face. A face I had not seen in months.

"I knew you would come," Mathias uttered, a broken smile on his lips.

Quite frankly, seeing him after so long was a shock.

We remembered him in the first few weeks, thinking he would appear out of nowhere and attack us. But then we forgot about him.
