Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29: 29-MY Squad Stands Up For Me

Clementine

I watched the burning arrow come straight at my forehead. I prepared myself to fight it, but it wasn’t such a swift move. However, everything was in slow-mo because someone stepped ahead and grabbed the arrow before it could even touch me.

While he grabbed the arrow, he turned towards me with a smooth move, the arrow whooshing in the air while being in his hand as he pulled it down, and the force he applied to do so put the fire out from the arrow.

He now faced me with his eyes on me.

"Troy," I uttered.

He then backed down again, turning to face Suki.

"What the fuck," Troy grunted, stepping ahead and putting his hands on her. The way he pushed her, I guess she did not see it coming because she landed straight on her butt.

That is when Joshua, who was still walking slowly with his crusaders, started sprinting. Seeing his mate fall on her ass probably triggered him. He came to attack Troy when Yorick got in the way and the two started to put their hands on each other.

Joshua threw the first punch that only grazed Yorick’s chin before Yorick punched him in his stomach and then put his head between his underarm, trying to drag him away. Joshua pushed him from the back, freeing himself and then pushing him again.

It was becoming too chaotic. Their other crusaders had arrived too. Two more boys and a girl, and they started throwing punches at Yorick and Troy.

But Yorick and Troy were the best, I could tell, because Troy was able to grab two crusaders in a headlock and then throw them away before he turned and punched the girl from their group, and she landed on the ground.

That is when the entire scene stopped because she started screaming.

"You fucking gave me a split lip!" 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

The way she screamed, everyone stopped to watch and look at her. Even Suki stepped away, wrinkling her nose at the blood coming from that girl’s mouth.

"You fucking hit a woman?" Joshua screamed at Troy, who shrugged.

"There is no gender in a fight. If your bitch can come and attack our crusader, we will do the same. You hear me?" Troy yelled back, shocking me with his reaction.

He was doing this because someone tried to attack me. I thought he would just stand by and have popcorn while I got hit with that arrow. But I guess I wasn’t truly that great at knowing what people thought of me. I thought I had figured it all out. I thought I knew what Troy wanted.

I guess not.

"Because your bitch fucking ruined our chance to slay that monster," Joshua yelled.

"Oh, you fucking bastard. You don’t get to call her a bitch," Yorick stepped up, pointing his finger at him.

What was going on? Why were these two fighting for me? I was so stunned that I could not even speak for myself.

"Besides, who said it was your plan? It was our plan. It failed? So what? Why did you want to kill him while we did the hard work?" Ian finally snapped, but speaking in his very low and calm, scary and creepy voice.

Everyone turned to look at him.

"Did you not see how your crusaders hit a woman?"

The girl from the ground got up, suddenly playing a woman card.

"I saw. Enjoyed it. But now you’re becoming a boring person," Ian shrugged and said in the most taunting and carefree voice. So much so that everyone just kept staring at his face like he was speaking gibberish.

"And if you want to slay the monster, do it yourself. Don’t come running into our plan. Because next time, we might not even want to slay the monster. And our focus might turn into other targets," Ian threatened, his eyes speaking their own language.

Everyone was so silently listening to him at this point.

It was actually Joshua who stepped forward to offer his handkerchief to the girl bleeding, while Suki just kept her distance. I could tell she was too full of herself.
