Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 532

Chapter 532: 532-Finally With My Mate

Mariana;

I do not know what came over me. I slid my hand into his hair and checked his neck.

I cupped his face in my hands and examined him closely, making sure he was not injured anywhere.

When our eyes met, I realized what I was doing.

I awkwardly withdrew my hands and started stepping back.

Yorick suddenly caught my elbows and pulled me closer.

"It has been a long time since someone cared about me like that," he murmured.

His eyes dropped to my lips.

I was frozen in shock. My life was changing too quickly.

But when I looked at him, my heart melted.

This was not sympathy. It was desire.

We leaned forward and our lips collided.

The moment they touched, I felt myself melting into him.

Clouds rolled in and swallowed the sky.

It was the preying month of the mates. During this time, a full moon was not required to find one’s mate.

The moment our kiss deepened, a fire ignited inside my body.

For a few seconds, I could not understand what was happening. I thought maybe it was comfort, because too much had happened today.

Then a voice rose from inside me.

Mate.

I gasped against Yorick’s mouth. Suddenly, I broke the kiss and stepped back.

We were not fully apart. He still had a tight grip on my elbows.

My hands were still pressed against his chest.

"What was that?" I asked, staring straight into his eyes.

The shocking part was that he wore the same expression I did. Pure shock.

"You felt it too?" he questioned.

The moment he asked, I knew it had not been just in my head.

It had actually happened.

"Wait. Did you feel the mate bond too?" I pressed.

Even saying the words made my heart tremble.

"Wait. What just happened? What did you two say?" Lady Rimi demanded.

I thought she was still trying to comfort Charles, but she was suddenly standing right beside us.

At first, I flinched when I saw her so close. Then she smiled.

It was the smile of a mother desperate to see her child happy, as if she had finally witnessed that happiness and wanted to be part of it.

She was looking at us with open joy.

I glanced at Yorick. I expected him to speak to his mother himself.

When he began avoiding her gaze, I felt a sharp realization settle inside me. Maybe I had rushed ahead of myself.

He did not look as happy as I was.

"What did you just say?" Rimi pressed again.

"Nothing," Yorick replied sternly.

I instantly removed his hands from my elbows.

The way I stared at him made it clear that I did not like his response.

"Coward," I muttered, stamping my foot before turning toward the tent.

"Wait. Listen to me," Yorick called out.
