Chapter 0361 "Can you tell us at all about this place, Frank?" I asked, feeling unreasonably confident.

Frank froze. I felt Enzo's hand tighten on my leg beneath the table, but I wasn't afraid. Frank, just like everyone else around here, was just a normal working man. In fact, he had done nothing except prove that he was incredibly kind, in his own way. Sure, he seemed a bit rough around the edges, but he went out of his way to give two strangers a ride and was even willing to sit down and have a meal with us.

Finally, licking his cracked lips, he spoke.

"Yer goin' after the Luna, aren't ya?" he suddenly asked.

Both mine and Enzo's eyes widened. "N-No," I responded, which wasn't a lie. We weren't going after anyone except Selena. I didn't even know anyone who was named Luna.

Frank shrugged. "I know what yer thinkin'. This place is as run down as can be." "Well, no, I" "It's alright. Ya know, it used to be a good town. A hard workin' town full'a good people. A lumber mill... I was the Beta, actually." Enzo raised his eyebrows. "Really?" he asked. We were both surprised at the old man's sudden candidness. Frank nodded. "Yup. Sure was." "Well...

Frank seemed to be thinking hard, as though he wanted to choose his words carefully. I could tell that he didn't want to say anything too revealing.

Even the ones who turned to crto feed their families... They're good." I thought back to the eyes that we saw peering out at us from the woods. "The rogues," I said quietly.

Frank nodded. "Yup. Matter o' fact, ye had a few of 'em followin' ya earlier." My eyes widened. When we first walked into that town, I remembered seeing Frank staring out his window at us. I didn't know it at the time, but I suddenly realized that he wasn't watching us with distrust; he was watching us for our own safety. If Frank hadn't offered us a ride, we probably would have been attacked.

Suddenly, our food came. Three burgers, dripping with grease and cheese, with mountains of French fries on each plate. The waitress didn't offer any ketchup or anything else of the sort, but when I took the first bite, I realized that it didn't need it.

"This is..."
