Chapter 285 Clementine: That night, when I lay down to sleep, my entire body ached. The pain seemed to come from one place, my neck. I rubbed the spot over and over, trying to soothe it, but the ache only grew worse. It itched and burned, spreading through my body.

Chapter 284 Clementine: “What?” Oriana complained. “Sir, please, I’m really sorry. I was just wearing her uniform, that’s all I did. How is that violence p> She started to cry almost instantly. I guessed the fear of being alone was getting to her. I knew how terrified she was of

Chapter 283 Clementine: “Ah, be careful!” Oriana almost squeaked when the lurker snatched the uniform out of her hands after making her change back into her own clothes. The lurker walked away, leaving us in our separate cells. These were the same cells I had been thrown into countless times

Chapter 282 Clementine: “Oh, look at me, I’m Clementine Stark. I’m such a sassy biatch who doesn’t give an F about anyone’s feelings,” Oriana mocked, turning her hair messy and posing seductively, something I never did. “Oh, and by the way, I’ll sleep with everyone, and I’d love to be

Chapter 281 Clementine: Miss Rue didn’t talk to me after that. Mr. Rick arrived and pulled her away from me. I was told to leave the hall because they were preparing it for the next meal. Instead of going back to my room, I stayed outside, wandering through the woods.

Chapter 280 Clementine: “I guess I might just go for Ian,” I replied, watching Yorick hiss at me. He took a step closer, but Troy placed a hand on his chest, pushing him back. “We are not going to reject her, so you don’t need to get yourself all hyped

Chapter 279 Clementine: I could not stomach any food, but I still forced it down. During the time I was ignored, Ian, as expected, was focused on his own plate. I was slightly confused as to why he had not shown any jealousy toward the others getting close to Oriana.

Chapter 278 Clementine: We were told to return to our rooms without any explanation. I tried to ask how something like this could have happened. How they had let such an important person die, but they silenced me. Since no one else stood with me, the ringleaders simply walked away.

Chapter 277 Clementine: I anxiously paced around the large hall, waiting for the ringleaders to arrive and tell us about the blast that had happened an hour ago. It had been a full hour since we were told to stay inside and not leave. Lurkers were everywhere, making sure none

Chapter 276 Clementine: The wind blew my hair across my face, and a chill ran through my body as I pressed my hands against the ground and forced myself up. I stared at Miss Rue and Mr. Rick, who watched me with mixed expressions. Mr. Rick looked furious, while Miss

Chapter 275 Clementine: After I finished speaking with Miss Rue, I decided to return to my dorm room. But as I turned away, something caught my attention, and it unsettled me. Usually, whenever one of us was called out or had to go somewhere, the others would pick up their

Chapter 274 Clementine: I didn’t entertain her and told her that everyone was waiting for us, and we shouldn’t delay. Thankfully, we made it back to the hall before Ian could come out of his room again. Of course, I was going to see him in the hall, and that’s

Chapter 273 Clementine: After Yorick spoke with me, the others came around and told me the same thing. They said there was nothing else going on, that I was overreacting, and it didn’t look good on me. At that point, I didn’t want to keep looking like a jealous person.

Chapter 272 Clementine: “Don’t you think you’re overreacting?” Haiden said, doubling down on his statement. “You were the one who introduced her to us. And honestly, after her father passed away, I think she really needs a friend. Her squadmates aren’t around, and it seems like she really, really likes

Chapter 271 Clementine: “What?” they all said almost in unison. “I need to speak with you guys about her. Can we please leave this place? I know she’ll come out, and it’ll be so awkward that our conversation will die in a few seconds,” I said, asking them to talk

Chapter 270 Clementine: We all stood, staring at each other as we recalled the moments when I had read part of Bodhi’s diary and then lied to Miss Rue just to see what they were going to do next. “That makes sense, but why would they be so scared of

Chapter 269 Clementine: We were all watching as Ian came downstairs and stared at us. “What took you all so long?” he asked casually, acting like he wasn’t aware of our glares. We had all been secretly communicating with our eyes, wondering how he had come from upstairs. It didn’t

Chapter 268 Clementine: I was honestly surprised to see Oriana this calm, but at the same time, I was more shocked that she had actually found the coal. The way she had run off earlier made me worry for her safety, but at least now I felt some peace. But

Chapter 267 Clementine: “Okay, so another corner checked, and she’s not there. Neither is Haiden or Ian,” Troy muttered, stretching his neck back and rubbing his nape tiredly. We had been running around anxiously, looking for our missing crusaders, and so far hadn’t come across a single one of them.

Chapter 266 Oriana: I watched the three of them fight those creatures like they were born to do it. There was no hesitation in them whenever they struck the monsters. Clementine was impeccable, just as I’d imagined her to be. She was perfect in every way. Her squadmates weren’t bad
