Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 477

Chapter 477: 477-Hurting Her Means Killing Me

Yorick:

Flashback.

I was hugging Clementine, a needle pressed against her back, but I did not inject her with the poison. I pulled the needle out and dropped to my knees, watching her sink down as well.

"What the hell are you doing, Yorick?" she asked, barely able to speak.

I looked up at her and tilted my head back.

"What I am about to tell you will make you hate me," I uttered. "This is not medicine. It is a poison made to make you fall for me."

As I confessed, I watched her eyes widen, disgust forming clearly on her face.

"I lost control. I thought maybe this was the only way I could have you," I continued, unable to look at her.

"How could you do this, Yorick? I thought we were friends," she replied.

Her words echoed in my head as I clenched the small rug beneath me, tightening it in my fist.

"I told you I got carried away, but Clementine, I promise I will not harm you," I said, straightening my back and looking at her again.

Pain was still written all over her face as she stared at me in disbelief.

"You used to tell me never to eat your mother’s food. You have been feeding me yourself," she said, as if she were finally putting everything together.

"I did not have a choice," I uttered, closing my eyes.

"Everyone has a choice. It is just that they believe they choose what they want over what is right," she commented, making goosebumps rise on my skin.

She was not wrong. She was never wrong.

"But trust me, I did not have one," I uttered.

"Well, now you have a choice. Let me go," she insisted.

I wished I could let her go. I wished this had never happened. I hated the way she was looking at me. I hated seeing her in pain.

"Clementine, when you were abducted, my parents never told me directly that you were the gift they were bringing me," I said. Even calling her a gift in front of her made me feel low. I did not look at her while saying it. "But there was one thing, a hidden warning. If I told anyone they were bringing you here, you would never even arrive. I or anyone else would never see you again."

I paused as I remembered how the internet was cut off, how my phone was tapped, how I could not even breathe without my mother watching me from behind. Keeping an eye on me.

Thankfully, I still had a few warriors that gathered some information for me here and there, but even my phone was linked to my mother’s. I could question her. I had done it before, but I knew the outcome. I would not be able to leave. They controlled me well.

"Clementine, if I did not feed you the food, they would have fed you poison to turn you into the worst monster so they could slay you and come across as heroes."

End of flashback.
