Chapter 45: The Role of Luna

Autumn feels like everyone around her is holding their breath, waiting for her to answer Lana.

“Fine,” she finally replies. “I will stay and fight as long as you come with us right now.”

Lana looks pleased as she nods her head toward her son, indicating he may break her chains. Blake snaps them easily and helps his mother to her feet. She’s clearly weak from the use of poison as well as improper nourishment. As he helps his mother back toward the steps, Autumn takes a good look around the room.

The dim light shifts as Blake hits the bulb with his head. As it swings back and forth, Autumn makes out something odd on the wall to the right of her. She walks over and gasps. Dustin has been taking pictures of her and pinning them to the wall in the cellar. There are some older pictures as well as some new ones.
