“Who can sleep with a full-blown vampire war going on out there?” Sierra snorts, the hatred evident for Juan and she gets so impatient with the stalling she shoves Radar out of her way and grabs the handle herself, yanking it down and heaves the door forward with intent. The clicking noise is loud and prominent in this noiseless air and startles me.
I close my eyes tight and take a hurried breath as the swoosh of air at my guards leaping forward to surround us gives me a new sense of safety. Into immediate guard mode as they flank us, and await instruction from Radar rather than their Luna. There’s a creak, a groan, and then the heavy scuffing noise of the doors being pushed fully open, and yet nothing happens.
