Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 340

Chapter 340: 340-Train Back Home

Clementine:

Throughout the time we were in the train, I could not step away from the glass window because I could tell the alphas were getting worked up, ready to punish her.

They were bullying her, saying things until she had restricted herself to the corner with her hands tied in front of her body, her neck lowered and her eyes down.

She never spoke up. Troy pointed at her and yelled slurs. Yorick did the same.

Haiden even cursed at her and flipped her off with his middle finger.

And then there was Ian. He sat on the opposite side of the bench near the window in a position where he could look directly at me.

He kept his elbow on the window, his fist under his temple, and his eyes on me.

A flirtatious smile stayed on his lips, and it became difficult for me to focus on the others because every time I looked over, I found him watching me.

Finally, the train arrived, and Oriana raised her head for the first time.

The first thing she did was squeeze her stare through the alphas’ large shoulders to look straight at me.

She pouted sadly and mouthed,

"I’m sorry, I’m innocent," she pleaded. I rolled my eyes. I stepped away from the window and waited for the doors to open.

As the doors opened, everyone started to come out.

Yorick, who was always the more emotional type, rushed toward the white squad carriage to help Joshua pick up his squad mate’s body.

However, the lurkers gestured for both Joshua and Yorick to step back from the dead bodies.

They went inside and carried the two out, returning with their bodies.

It was such an awful sight, and Mr. Rick looked as if he was done with his life.

His fists kept clenching, his eyes on the dead bodies before they shifted to Joshua.

The way he rushed at Joshua, I expected him to give him a hug or comfort him and tell him that things would be okay, that everything would be fine from now on, or something like that.

Instead, he grabbed him by his collar and shook him. I was stunned when he did that.

"Why could you not save your two friends? They were part of you. You were an alpha. Could you ever save anyone at all?" Mr. Rick yelled.

As soon as he said that, something inside me snapped. I rushed forward, grabbed Mr. Rick’s hands, and freed Joshua from his grasp.

"Back off," I screamed, placing myself between them.

I know I should mind my business, I always tell myself, but then I forget it and end up losing my temperament and standing up for people I think deserve a voice.

The way Mr. Rick looked at me and the way his body flinched suggested he could slap me right there.

But he would not dare, not when he knew that if I fought him, I would tear him apart just like I do to the monsters out there.
