Chapter 47: Chapter 47
The entire basement trembled violently due to the loud explosion, and some lights on the ceiling began to flicker, but I knew this place would not collapse, because it was a purpose-reinforced secret room. Athan Buffay planned from the beginning to leave me here and fight alone. There was a small room behind me with enough food and water for a week and a bed. I watched where he left, tears blurring my vision.
No, no, I can't let him face all this alone! I picked up a fallen brick from the ground and smashed it desperately at the iron fence. My hands were rubbed out with blood, but I couldn't feel the pain, I just wanted to go out, I'm going to find him! I threw my head away and slammed on the iron fence with both hands. If I bent it a little, I might be able to get out of the gap! However, I worked hard for a long time, but only shook the iron fence a little bit. I never wished I could shift into a wolf so much, if I had my wolf, I would have so much power! I roared with all my strength. Finally, I slumped limply on the cold ground with my back against the iron fence, tears streaming down my cheeks to the ground.
The sound of the explosion outside was getting quieter, I didn’t know how Athan was at that time, I hated myself for being so useless. If he fell in love with a real female werewolf instead of a useless omega like me, maybe he'd be in less danger. . .
In the dim light, I closed my eyes in despair.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise behind me, I turned around in a hurry, and saw a big hole in the door lock position of the door at the entrance of the basement! I suddenly remembered what Athan said to me before leaving, could it be Markus here? Does that mean that Athan is in danger?
“Markus,I’m over here!” I shouted to the person who just opened the door, the lights were too dim that I couldn’t see the person clearly.
“There you are ,my dear sister.” A familiar voice sounded, and I saw Thana’s face appeared in front of me. I immediately became nervous, how did she find this basement? Has David already taken over this place?
"Where is Athan? What did you do to him!" I asked her out loud, but Thana's expression was a little surprised.
"How would I know where Athan Buffay went?" She looked at the basement, and she claped her hands: "As expected of the Alpha of the Full Moon Pack, he was able to build such a huge pack base in human society."
I didn't want to pay attention to her exaggerated tone, and just asked: "What do you mean, how did you find this place?”
“By following you, of course,” Thana finally looked at me with a smile, “It's just that I didn't expect that Athan Buffay would choose to put you in here. You are so important to him. "Her tone was vaguely mocking and envious, but I didn't want to quarrel with her. “Thana, I don’t have time for this. Can you please let me out, I need to go find him.”
“Why would I do that?” she raised her eyebrows and looked at me, “do you think I would help you just because you saved me? You are too naïve, Katherine.”
I exhaled slowly to calm myself down. I had to figure out a way to get Thana to help me out, if she leaves, no one can help me.
“Thana, if you help me, I will owe you a favor,” I looked into her eyes: “you would rather follow me than go back to David, it’s because you don’t trust him, am I right?”
Thana's expression became hesitant, which means I guessed right! I stared at her expression, waiting for her answer. After a long time, Thana asked:“why would I want your favor?”
“Well, you saw it yourself, Athan Buffay is in love with me,” I smiled at her, try to make myself sound calm: “if you help me, I will make sure he spare your life, and the Full Moon pack will not seek revenge on you for what you did.”
She laughed dryly and retorted, "Who said Athan would win today? Maybe David has killed him by now."
“Then we will both be dead soon, because none of us is important enough for David to spare.” I looked at Thana's face and I knew that she was really frightened by my words.
Thana fell silent again, I held on to the iron fence and waited nervously. In fact, part of what I said was just my guess, I don't know the real relationship between Thana and David, but at this moment I had to convince her!
“Fine, I’ll help you. But I need you to keep your promise.”I let out a sigh of relief, and stepped back. Thana’s eyes turned, with a loud roar, she bend the iron fence with her bare hands.
Without hesitation, I ran out the door and went upstairs.
It was now a battlefield outside, and David's werewolf warriors nearly surrounded the building, but for some reason they stopped moving forward. I took a closer look and found that their faces were full of surprise and fear.
At this point, I heard a deafening roar, thar came from Athan Buffay!
