Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206: 206-Worse Than A Monster

Clementine:

"She is what?" Yorick asked, closing one eye as he tried to finish the sentence.

"Great, you guys are already here. You must have heard it. I felt a mate bond with her just now," Troy said in a confident tone, as if that should guarantee he had more claim to me.

"Wait, wait, she has three alpha mates?" Haiden stepped forward, questioning.

I noticed Ian walking behind them, probably checking what was going on. He slowed, tilted his head, and then sighed deeply.

"These two just felt the mate bond. How is that possible? How can she have three mates?" Yorick asked Ian, since Ian usually had answers. Ian looked at me and then back at Yorick. I honestly expected him to announce that I didn’t just feel a mate bond with three, but with four of them. But he only shrugged.

At that moment I realized he didn’t want anyone to know we were mates, and I felt disappointed. It was odd that I had told others not to make a deal out of it, not to worry, and yet I was the one who was upset.

"So what are we gonna do now? I’m not gonna back down." Haiden shrugged.

"Well, I’m not gonna back down either," Yorick said harshly.

"And what makes you guys think I will back down? I’ve had a crush on her for a long time, so when I’m finally given a chance, I’m not gonna let it go," Troy hissed.

I just stood there watching them, disbelief on my face.

"Whatever you decide, do it quickly. The train will come and you won’t have time unless you want to stay over and already inspect the next monster we’re gonna meet," Ian said casually, shrugging, showing he didn’t care about winning my heart. I was glad I stopped him earlier.

Once he walked away, the others kept talking.

"How about the three of us give it a try and then decide who should back down?" Haiden suggested.

I started to clap my hand and shake my head in disbelief. The three turned to me as I stood in front of them, all bloodied up and ready to make my decision clear.

"What exactly makes you think I want to end up with any one of you?" I asked sharply, watching them squint.

"We’re your mates," Yorick announced as if I didn’t know that. He sounded bothered.

"And now that we’re mates, I’m supposed to forgive you for your bullying and everything you’ve put me through," I said, watching their proud shoulders slump. "I know we’re mated and I don’t know why. Maybe I’m just cursed," I added, pausing to watch their reaction. They looked hurt when I called our bond a curse.

"Here’s a thought," I said with a smile. "There is a thing called rejection. And trust me, I won’t hesitate to pick rejection over someone who’s been abusive to me in the past." I hissed as their eyes widened.

"If anyone tries to drag me around without my permission next time, it’ll be bad. So when you want to talk, fucking ask and wait for my permission," I hissed, looking at Troy.

The others looked at him and nodded, trying to put him down but clearly missing my point. I wanted them to stop and leave me alone for now. Was that too much to ask?
