282 Let's Accuse The Lycan "We cannot waste any more seconds now. We need to find Maynard before Zander finds him,” I said as I ran around in search of Maynard.
It was frustrating that one of our own friends had turned against us.
He was not going to back down, at least that much I knew of him.
"You should have never accepted him and let him die," Lazlo agreed with Thiago now.
"I am now wondering if Thiago knew all along how messy Zander could be.” It was funny how we were now agreeing with Thiago after messing up badly.
Ever since Zander and Christina arrived, things have only gone down drastically.
I am not blaming them for everything wrong happening in our lives, but so far, they haven’t done anything to prove their loyalty to us.
It was still funny that Zander was always the first to expect help and loyalty from us.
"He is not even at the cabin," I announced after running around the cabin.
There were no signs of him ever being here.
"Oh God! Why is Maynard running from us? Could it be that—” Lazlo shut up when he noticed the look on my face? "No! He is alive.
I am sure he is just guilty of murdering someone.
Remember when I killed that crazy hunter in his mansion? I felt guilty.
It is never easy to take a life." I remember that night way too well.
It was my first time killing someone with so much anger that! exploded the head.
“Yeah! You are right.
We need to stay positive.” Lazlo nodded to himself.
“Anyway, Thiago called.
He couldn’t find him.
He is coming over to meet us here.
He said he has a plan," I then told Lazlo, who looked disappointed once again.
"Why is it that he ignores my calls?" Lazlo grunted, “Is Maynard his new buddy now?” That little scoff reeked of jealousy.
Once again, I didn't point out how he was acting childish and let him throw a tantrum around the branches and the rocks.
"Guys, we cannot rest," I heard Thiago say from afar while rushing towards us.
“I couldn’t find him.
But I have a plan.
You two go around looking for Maynard, while I will stick around with Zander.
If he finds him first, I will be able to get Maynard out of his grasp and take him far away.
And if you guys find Maynard first, let me know.
We have to sit him down and get his story straight.
We will make sure Mr.
Tripper looks guilty.” Thiago came prepared.
“We will have to bring every victim of Mr.
Tripper around too." As soon as he talked about victims, Lazlo cleared his throat to object.
"You are talking as if you are certain Christina is a victim.
Why was she in his office at that time of night?” Lazlo asked the same question I had in my mind.
"There are a thousand possibilities of why she was in his office.
Maybe she left the room in search of Maynard and found Mr.
Tripper instead.
We all know how forceful he can be when he wants a girl in his office,” He said, as he made me recall the time when Mr.
Tripper dragged me to his office.
"But why would she look for Maynard at that hour of the night? Last time I checked, the two cuddled to sleep,” Lazlo remembered, placing hands on his waist and looking at us. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
Oh shit! He didn't know about our secret meeting on the rooftop.
“Actually, Thiago is right.
Maynard was not in the room last night.
I called Thiago and Maynard on the rooftop to talk about some stuff with them.” I felt guilty telling Lazlo I didn't include him.
The look
he gave me was itself horrific.
"Oh! So I was the only fool sleeping in the room, then?” Lazlo asked, with disappointment-filled eyes.
“Lazlo! It was about them.
The two were missing, so I didn't feel like bothering yo–“.
He didn't even let me finish and stepped back from me while giving me a look.
"We need to find Maynard because I believe Thiago would be desperate to find his buddy.” Lazlo stared Thiago directly in the eye, who closed his eyes for a moment just to open them again to say, "Dude, you want that dick? Just tell me if you do." "Okay! Enough, both of you." I don't know what had gotten into the two of them, but I had to step between them to bring attention to the subject of Maynard.
The two were glaring at each other as if they were ready to kiss passionately.
"Wait! Zander is calling me again." When he showed us the screen of his phone, Lazlo’s facial expression changed.
It wasn’t a good sign.
"It seems like Maynard knows better than you all." Zander's voice held a hint of sarcasm the moment his call was answered.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Lazlo questioned his statement, holding his phone out so that we could all hear Zander.
"Maynard has turned himself in and is going to confess to his crime.” That cheeky tone Zander used made me shudder in my skin.
I don't get why Maynard would run away when he was going to turn himself in? We hung up the call and rushed to the academy where Maynard had called the cops to find him.
According to Zander, Maynard arrived at the academy and called the cops to bring in Christina to our dorm room.
Since he was an Alpha, they had to follow his demands.
Once we were in the academy, Maynard, Zander, Christina, and some cops in our room welcomed us.
"So, you are ready to make a confession?" The cop asked Maynard, who had his face buried and his body slouching down in the bed.
I wanted to tell him to not confess, but he looked so defeated that he wasn’t even raising his face to look at anyone.
He looked all messed up.
"It was 1.-," Maynard had only begun to talk when Christina interrupted him.
“I know who did it,” she confessed, confusing everyone.
Even Maynard raised his face at her in bewilderment.
At this point, we all knew Maynard did it.
We were just worried about what reason he was going to give us.
"I am the eyewitness to what happened in that office." She was no longer crying, just panting and breathing profusely.
"Okay! So tell us, what did you see?" the cop asked her.
Qur eyes were glued to her face as she sniffled a little and murmured, “It was the monster who killed Mr.
Tripper," she announced, and a little sigh of relief escaped our lips.
That was actually a good plan.
There had been murders in the academy before where the monster got blamed for them.
“Then tell us the description of the monster.
You were there; you must have seen it." The cop cornered her.
We didn't realize that as an eyewitness, she would need to explain more than just to claim something.
She looked lost for a moment, and then her eyes landed on Thiago.
"It was a Lycan!" Her words shook my body as if my entire existence had shattered.
"And I know a Lycan here." Her eyes traveled to Thiago.
