Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 63

Chapter 63: 63-He Might Betray Us

Clementine:

"What? I’m just saying—it’s for you. You two want to be together so badly that you’re ready to introduce him to your father. So don’t put all the burden on his shoulders. You should be the one apologizing and convincing me to agree to visit your pack instead."

Ian pointed out that Haiden was the only one who had shown genuine interest in visiting my pack for me. I, on the other hand, had just been in the background, taunting and mocking him. And for Haiden’s sake, I realized we had to act right.

"Fine, I’m sorry. Please, Ian, come with us to my pack," I said dramatically, but his smirk showed he didn’t mind that I was being sassy. He just wanted to hear me apologize, and he had done a great job making that happen.

"I’m sorry, Men, for being rude," Troy added in his usual alpha tone.

"Now, we should head to bed, because I have to go and watch the Warriors leave for North." Haiden suddenly went quiet, and Ian raised his head again, squinting one eye slightly, almost like he was judging Haiden for wanting to check if the Warriors were leaving to fetch Sadie back. At the same time, Haiden was trying to convince Ian to come with us to my pack so he could introduce himself to my father as my mate.

"Anyway, good night," I said, trying to change the subject and help Haiden escape Ian’s gaze.

We all went to bed, but Ian paced around the room for a while. He had some very annoying habits, and one of them was walking around while everyone else was trying to sleep. It made everyone uncomfortable. Troy had once mentioned it to him, asking him not to do that, because sometimes it felt like someone had come in to attack us. With Ian moving around every night, every few hours, it gave us a constant sense of unease. What if one of these days it wasn’t him, and someone else was in the room, and we were just comfortably sleeping—too used to the sound of Ian pacing?

But he wouldn’t listen, so we just let it go.

The morning arrived, and we all rushed back to the main hall for breakfast, where the ringleaders were announcing a new set of rules. Of course, no one mentioned that we had decided to quit, or that the rules came from the deal they made with us because then the other crusaders would object. They’d want to go home too, hoping for deals of their own. So none of that was brought up. The ringleaders made it seem like they had come up with these changes on their own, just to make the crusaders feel a little more relaxed, less like prisoners.

"You may decide whether you want to visit your packs as a group or go alone," Lenora said. She gave the instructions clearly.
