Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204: 204-On Fire

Clementine:

Leaving Ian behind didn’t feel like a good idea to me. I started to protest as they tried to take me, but Troy and Yorick were forceful, and because I was sick, exhausted, and wounded, I couldn’t fight much.

"He’s not a fucking baby, you don’t have to always go after him, dammit," Troy almost chewed upon the words.

That made me stop resisting so hard. He was right. There was no point in chasing Ian, I was wounded and would only be a burden. Why was I acting like his mother?

Why was I so worried he’d get hurt? I’m pretty sure he was stronger than me, at least at that moment. I didn’t like how Troy said it, but he wasn’t wrong. It was weird that he noticed.

They took me to the bus, and as soon as they put me inside, Haiden turned around.

"Are you stabbed?" he asked.

I gave him a hand gesture, my arm wrapped around my stomach. Oriana, Mira, and the others were trying to drag Joshua away from Suki’s dead body. They did a good job. Jack was on board with the idea, so they all dragged him back.

"Okay, we’re gonna drive around, but we’ll keep an eye on Ian," Haiden uttered. Thankfully he didn’t wait for me to remind them that we weren’t going to leave Ian behind.

Once we started to drive around, we saw the wendigos rush toward the house and start sniffing around because Ian kept calling for them. We didn’t leave, we were watching him from the bus.

"What if they didn’t follow him?" Troy asked.

We had no answer, but Ian made a sudden noise to get their attention. He’d probably noticed the pattern in those things and how we could lure them. When he made those noises, all the wendigos left. Ian was inside the house now.

"I am worried for Ian," Yorick mumbled under his breath.

I didn’t say anything, I felt they’d judge me. Oriana sat next to me, holding my hand and supporting my body.

We all watched the house catch fire. The screeches grew louder. The pain the wendigos were feeling rose high in the air in the form of their screams.

Joshua sat at the back of the bus, unable to move, almost too stunned. Jack was right next to him, keeping an eye on his friend.

My eyes stayed on the house. Anxiety rose in me.

"What are we supposed to do? Are we gonna wait? I don’t think he’s coming out," Mira said.

I turned to give her a harsh glare. In response, she shrugged and sank back in her seat.

"I’m just saying, what if other monsters come? We are not safe here," she muttered, complaining because I was glaring at her.

"He took one for all of us. So come on, show some decency," Oriana hissed at her. Thankfully it wasn’t me saying it, or the others would think I was obsessed with Ian, always talking about him and never letting him do anything alone.

But at that point, I couldn’t think about anything else. I just stared at the house, and I could tell Haiden was anxious. His hands clutched the steering wheel, probably wondering if he should go or wait.
