Rogue Disaster

CHAPTER XVII

oin the same town when Lazarus brought her over to what seemed to be a manor in the middle of the forest. There, she found a picture of a girl inside a frame on Lazarus’ desk, and she couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy and was curious to find out who it was. She then heard a voice whispering out to her; she followed it and came across the moon crystal. She touched it and immediately felt energy course through her body. She was convulsing when Lazarus found her; he then got Melanie to treat her, and due to the pain, Locco passed out. When she woke up, Lazarus was nowhere to be found, but the other Lycans were. Locco got to know the rest of the gang, Valerio Savatier and Lunnette Olivier. Mid-conversation, she noticed the Lycans tensing up in unison, followed by Lazarus appearing and warning them about Duncan. Enigmas surrounded the tiny shack that they resided in. Despite her weakness, Locco attempted to attack Duncan outside, but she was stopped by Lazarus, who convinced her not to, and then Lunette grabbed a hold of her head and put her to sleep. Except for Lazarus, Melanie went out to talk to Duncan, followed by the other Lycans. Duncan was skeptical about Lazarus' absence, but he believed the lie they told him about Locco fleeing them. Duncan was disappointed by the news and left, but not before promising to return.

Worried about his mate, Lazarus stayed up to look after Locco, and when she woke up, she hastily tried to leave so she could get to Elijah, but Lazarus refused to let her go and made her have breakfast first. She then returned to her apartment to find Elijah and tell him what had happened. Elijah offered to handle the transaction on his own, but she declined and accompanied him to meet Henry Bentwood. When they arrive at his office, they both notice that almost everything Henry owns is silver, making it difficult for them to act normally. Their conversation went fine, but not after Henry offered his hand, filled with silver rings, for a handshake with Locco. Their conversation was fine until Henry offered Locco his hand, which was encrusted with silver rings, for a handshake. Henry was left skeptical by Locco’s reaction but did not say anything, and the two went back to the apartment after.

Later that afternoon, Max went to visit Locco at the apartment and bought her flowers, but before she could accept them, Lazarus made an appearance and shut the door in front of Max’s face, who had just left. Lazarus insisted on staying with Locco to protect her and made himself at home in her bed.
