Damian had been quick to react and looked for a place to hide! The school's library had two floors, and most students did not go to the first one, imagine having to walk up a staircase.

So, Damian, who could not find a place to hide on the first floor — there were only shelves which would not be enough to hide two people — so, having that in mind, Damian grabbed Theo by the arm and flew up to the second floor.

Everything happened so fast that Theo was still in a daze, but it was good that Damian had a clearer mind and acted first, or whoever was coming from the secret passage would bump straight into them.

Once they were up there, Damian and Theo hid behind a bookshelf, but they still peeked to see the person leaving the secret passage.

It was a masked person with a robe, just like the one Theo had seen. But that person was not alone! Eight people left the secret passage.

"Are you sure things are going in the right direction? We need whatever is behind that door for the sake of our future," one of the masked people said.

The voice was that of a woman, but it did not sound like Vanessa. Could Damian be wrong about her, or was she someone else among those eight people?

"Maybe she can alter her voice too! I don't see that as impossible," Damian thought.

"Yes, things are going in the right direction, but it will still take some time for us to open that door. In the meantime, we must ensure this society is secret and prepare for the hordes yet to come."

"Understood."

All of them left the library, but one of the eight people, before leaving, looked up to the second floor where Damian and Theo were hiding. They quickly moved and hid behind the bookshelf, but that person staring at their location made their hearts beat fast, and Theo was sweating on his forehead.

"I thought I sensed something. My mind is playing tricks, I guess," the masked person thought before moving his gaze away from where Damian was, leaving the library afterward.

"That was close!" Theo said as he sat on the floor, finally relaxing after everyone left the library.

Damian frowned his eyebrows and thought about what he had heard.

"Something behind a door? Do they need that for the future? Also, is a horde of beasts coming to attack the school soon? How do they know about it when everyone else has no idea?"

The secret society was not a simple one considering they knew things the upper ranks of the school did not, which made Damian want to join the organization even more!

But not everything went Damian's way. He did not see how they opened the secret passage, and after they all left, he and Theo went downstairs, looking for a way to open it again, and did not find anything.

"I need to find out how to open this and where that door they are discussing is."

While Damian was eager to find more, Theo wanted to return to his dorm, so they did. Damian would not force Theo to do anything, but he knew with the right amount of time, Theo would want to learn more about what they saw and heard, and Damian would gladly accept him on his team.

The way back went smoothly; they knew the best path to the dorm. But of course, there was still a risk, but at least at that time, everything worked out for them.

"Imma go to my room now and rest a little bit. See you tomorrow," Theo said.

"See ya, bro."please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Damian did the same, going inside his room and jumping on the bed, he grabbed his cell phone and saw a message from someone he knew, Aurora!

They could not speak with outsiders or use the internet freely inside that college, but they could talk with other students.

<Hiii, Damian, Wanna go out for lunch tomorrow?>

"She is asking me on a date! Well, calm down, Damian. You two are only friends."

<Hii, of course, Aurora, we also have some things to talk about.>

<Talk about what?>

Damian could not see it, but Aurora had red cheeks as she looked at her phone.

<I can't talk by message.>

The last message sent by Damian made her think about the wrong things. Aurora put the phone on her chest and lay on her bed, looking at the roof with troublesome thoughts.

Damian, Theo, Magnus, and Aurora went to the school's kitchen early in the morning for breakfast. It was not a private place to speak about a secret society, as many other students were around them, doing the same thing: eating.

So, Damian would go for lunch in a private restaurant with Aurora and speak with her about what he and Theo had seen.

And in the dorm, during the night, he would visit Magnus and share it with him too! They were Damian's only friends and looked like decent people, so he trusted them.

"I hope neither stabs me in the back," thought Damian.

ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) There was another reason he wanted to share that with his two friends: more eyes and ears to look for information about the secret society!

Theo was still scared about the situation, so he would not help Damian a lot, so he was all alone, which was not a good thing. So having Magnus and Aurora look for more information, just like he was doing, was the best thing he could do at that point.

The four of them were sitting in the school's kitchen, eating, and Damian noticed how Aurora would look at him and then move her gaze away as if she was too shy to make eye contact.

"She was not like that before. What happened?" thought Damian, trying to understand why the sudden change but could not think of a reason.

Everything was like any other typical day until they heard screaming outside.

Every student and teacher went to the courtyard to see what happened, and when they saw it, no one could believe such a thing was happening inside the prestigious Garmony Upper School.
