Chapter 208 The Start of The Horror Show

The lounge Lexi had taken Allen to was pretty much deserted at this time of day.

There weren’t too many people who enjoyed a liquid brunch at the enclave clearly, but

that served Lexi’s goals just fine.

“So, are you going to tell me or not?” Lexi asked impatiently as soon as the omega

that was acting as waitress deposited their order and disappeared off into the recess

Allen sighed and picked at the edge of the table absent-mindedly as he debated how

best to answer her. She was right of course, and Orvar agreed with everything that

she said. Not that it surprised him. When it came to Lexi, Orvar was clearly biased.

‘It’s not biased, it’s being intelligent enough to realize when you’re wrong, and let’s

‘I didn’t ask for your commentary on my choices that I clearly regret, Orvar.’ Allen

snapped as his mind went into overdrive.

“Sorry, wolf talk…” Allen shrugged apologetically with a tight smile.

“You do realize that this whole talking to yourself thing makes you seem more than

just a little psychotic, right? Hearing voices and answering them will usually get you a

one-way ticket to being committed to the local asylum.” Lexi replied half seriously.

Allen snorted.

“If I could lock him away in there sometimes just to get a bit of peace, I might actually

consider it for a viable vacation spot.”
