We should've left the basement alone but still, we went back.
That was my first thought when the chains started rattling in the corner of Black Moon's old residence, right after Dominic had found those experiment notes upstairs.
My second thought was more along the lines of we're all going to die down here.
"What was that?" I froze on the basement stairs, one hand gripping the rail so tight my knuckles went white.
"Probably rats." Killian was already at the bottom, flashlight sweeping the darkness. "Big ones, from the sound of it."
The chains exploded outward with a screech of metal on stone.
Something moved in the shadows. Big. The kind that made your brain scream to run even when your legs wouldn't cooperate.
Then it stepped into the light and I wished it had stayed in the dark.
