Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279: 279-We Should Reject Each Other

Clementine:

I could not stomach any food, but I still forced it down.

During the time I was ignored, Ian, as expected, was focused on his own plate.

I was slightly confused as to why he had not shown any jealousy toward the others getting close to Oriana.

Or was he just telling the truth? Maybe he did it to annoy me. I didn’t care.

After the last bit of food was finished and we were ready to clear our dishes, I tried to speak to the ringleaders, but none of them stopped.

Even Miss Rue was not allowed to speak with me. We were told to leave, and I was more annoyed than ever this time.

As soon as we walked out of the hall and I began pacing down the passage, I sped up to get the attention of my mates.

"All of you, I want to speak with you," I said as I turned around, pointing at Oriana. "Except you." I moved ahead of them, walking briskly.

"What is it about? It’s okay, we trust her," Troy called from behind me. I raised my hand and shook it, signaling that I didn’t want an argument.

"If you want me to discuss something, it will be in private," I muttered under my clenched jaw.

"And by all of us, you mean Ian included? but somehow Oriana is not part of it," Yorick complained as he hurried to catch up.

"Yes, do you have a problem with that?" I hissed, finally turning to snap at him.

"Whoa, relax. What’s going on with you? Is North catching up with you?" Haiden asked, and I closed my eyes and clenched my jaw before turning and speeding down the passage toward the ground.

I watched Oriana slow down while the others followed behind me.

"Why is Ian included and she’s not?" Troy’s voice was even more aggressive this time, showing how much they cared about her.

In such a short time, she had become the center of their attention.

"Ugh! Enough with it," I finally turned around to snap at them.

At this point, I could still see Oriana in the distance. I didn’t know why she couldn’t just leave us alone.

She kept hovering nearby, watching us from afar.

"Because Ian is my mate, and she is not. Is that enough of an answer?" I barked, watching them all wear the same expression except for Ian.

The others looked angry, hands on their hips, while Ian smirked teasingly.

"What is it about? We get it. It’s about the mate bond, right?" Hidden asked. As I started to nod, it seemed they already had their own thoughts about it.

"About that, I think it’s better if we forget all the terms we made about trying to chase you, about making you accept one of us," Yorick said, as expected.

They had made up their minds not to pursue me. Honestly, I wasn’t greedy for their attention either.

The problem was that they never told me about their plans, and that hurt me.

All they had to do was come and tell me first. Instead, they waited until I confronted them.

I wondered if they would have kept going had I not asked them directly.

"Good," I replied, nodding.
