Chapter 105 Clementine: The scent of his shampoo was mesmerizing. I felt the dampness from his clothes, but I didn’t let go. I couldn’t even lift my hands because his arms were wrapped tightly around me. After a while, he pulled back and cupped my face in his cold hands,
Chapter 104 Clementine: Silence fell after Valerie was left behind. I didn’t say it out loud, but in my head I was furious with Oriana. Still, I wasn’t going to report her until I could speak to her directly. When we arrived at the station, the door opened and the
Chapter 103 Clementine: I turned to look at him, noticing Valerie had fallen asleep next to the baby on the bench, with a bag under her head as a pillow. Oriana was also sleeping peacefully on the bench. We ate a few biscuits from the bags, then Troy and I
Chapter 102 Clementine: I had been holding the baby for a while. The tears on my cheek had dried, and my eyes stared blankly ahead. “Clementine, come on, we have to head back to the station. The baby needs food,” Troy’s voice finally broke through. He had been trying to
Chapter 101 Clementine: I had been walking in silence for a few minutes. Two faces kept flashing in my mind—Haiden’s, looking upset that I hadn’t told him about the plan before leaving, and Yorick’s, who seemed to have been in deep pain. I wondered if running away last night had
Chapter 100 Troy: The moment her head came off, the monster stepped back so it could roll it around. At the same time, I saw her body collapse, and the hold she’d had on the baby was gone. I lunged toward her lifeless body and scooped up the baby girl.
Chapter 99 Troy: It felt like watching a horror movie, seeing Clementine locked out of the mansion. This white squad had barged in, claimed the place we found and opened, and then did the worst thing, they threw out our squadmate. And not just anyone, but Clementine. I released Jack
Chapter 98 Clementine: Still, Haiden helped him up and walked him to the carriage. Inside, I saw Ian already there. “Ah, you’re all back,” he said, but his smirk faded when he saw Yorick’s condition. He looked terrible, and it hurt me deeply. That’s when I knew Yorick was in
Chapter 97 Clementine: I knew I was taking a big risk carrying a baby as I walked back, but we had to pass this road to reach the station. I fed the baby a few times on the way, and by then, the sun was right above us. It wasn’t
Chapter 96 Clementine: “What do you mean by you have two?” Ian asked, making me turn my head to look at him. He stared at me with his grey eyes like they were shooting lasers. I had a feeling the statement would get some harsh and quizzical glares, and some
Chapter 95 Clementine: I ignored his comment and focused on the bag. “Ian, we weren’t supposed to take it with us,” I reminded him again. He rolled his eyes while continuing to stare at the stuff and then pulling out small juice boxes and offering me one. It was so
Chapter 94 Clementine: I was carrying the baby, walking straight toward nowhere. After a while, I stopped running because I was tired, and running was making the baby anxious. I calmed him down and saw he had no visible injuries. Thankfully, he was wrapped in thick clothes that had helped
Chapter 93 Clementine: As we kept looking into each other’s eyes, I shook my head and broke the stare. He looked more shocked than upset. “How is that possible?” I stuttered, pulling my arms free from his hands and putting as much distance between us as I could while walking
Chapter 92 Clementine: However, before the monster could attack me, Yorick grabbed him by the neck and tossed him into the shelves. One shelf toppled into another, and I knew it would cause a lot of noise. Yorick quickly ran to hold the other shelf, stopping it from falling, but
Chapter 91 Clementine: We reached the door when Haiden suddenly grabbed Joshua, pulling him away, while Troy held onto Jack. As they dragged them back, I realized they were giving me a chance to open the door for Yorick. I could hear a lot of screaming outside, mostly the creatures,
Chapter 90 Clementine: I had almost stopped breathing. I watched the creature come out the same way as the other one, head down and sniffing across the ground. This time, it was headed straight toward me. I knew I had to move, but I had a terrible feeling that the
Chapter 89 Clementine: We walked around for a few minutes, but this time we didn’t head toward the woods. We knew the parents wouldn’t have gone there, there’s no way the mothers would think to hide in such a dangerous place. Or so we thought. As soon as we stepped
Chapter 88 Clementine: We didn’t even get enough time to rest. We rushed into our rooms, dropped off our bags, took showers, and quickly changed into our uniforms. That’s when I realized I had brought my own shoes for no reason, since we were supposed to wear the standard ones.
Chapter 87 Clementine: I was waiting for the car to arrive, and while doing so, I stood on the road, watching the omegas walk past me, the warriors leaving for the training ground, and the couples holding their kids and bags as they headed to drop them off at school.
Chapter 86 Clementine: However, once the maids left and I got into bed, I watched Haiden come out and take off his shirt with one hand, pulling it over his head and tossing it onto the mattress. The way he did it while standing next to my bed and staring
