Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 541

Chapter 541: 541-Winning Her Back

Ian:

Throughout the train ride, I kept hold of Clementine’s hand.

Seeing her in that cage earlier had twisted something inside me. At that moment, I decided I would go with her instead of leaving her behind.

It was something I needed to do. I truly believed my life and happiness existed wherever she was.

I realized it when I walked up to the cage, gripped the bars, and looked at her.

That was it.

She was my happiness. She was what I wanted for my life.

When we arrived, I forced myself to stand and helped her up carefully.

She felt lighter in my arms, as if she had lost weight over the past few weeks from whatever she had endured.

I lifted her and jumped down from the train, landing on the platform.

Then I set her down gently and cupped her face in my hands.

She stared at me in confusion, as if trying to recognize me.

That hurt.

Footsteps sounded behind us. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

I turned quickly, expecting fleshmingos.

Instead, I saw Haiden, Troy, Leysa, and Fauna.

I scanned the area, half expecting to find myself back on the mainland.

If this was not the mainland, then why the fuck were they here?

"We had to come," Haiden explained, noticing the questions in my eyes.

"And why is he here?" I grunted, nodding toward Troy.

Troy scratched the back of his neck, guilt written across his face.

As I fixed my stare on him, Clementine swayed.

I caught her before she fell and steadied her.

Then I guided her to a bench and helped her sit down.

She rubbed her face with both hands.

"Look, I know I messed up," Troy began. "But I only wanted to spend time with her. That is all."

"I swear I did not even touch her. The moment I took her out of that place, I regretted it."

He paused and glanced at Leysa.

"I started realizing what a second chance feels like. When someone accepts you. When they love you. I am in love with Leysa. Nothing happened to Clementine while she was with me."

He stopped, remembering that Messi had abducted her right in front of him.

"I do not understand," Clementine murmured.

Her voice was broken, and it pulled our attention back to her.

If she had not spoken, I would have taken my anger out on someone. Either them or the fleshmingos.

"You are okay," I whispered, sitting beside her.

She turned toward me and narrowed her eyes.

"Who are you?" she asked, making my fists clench.

I lifted my head sharply and glared at Haiden and Troy.

"We did not do anything," Troy defended quickly. "It was the experiments."
