Surrender To Us, Our Luna (One Luna, Four Alphas) novel Chapter 546

Chapter 546: 546-I Should Suffer Alone

Yorick:

it all happened quickly. Then I was standing right in front of Clementine, facing her like a culprit.

She held a knife to my throat, and I wished she would slit it, until Mariana came into view. A desire to live sparked through me.

Yet I did not beg Clementine to spare me. I wanted her to make the decision herself.

If she wanted to kill me, I would have embraced it happily because I deserved it. But Clementine lowered her hands when Mariana started to defend me.

That kind of love made me feel special. But I was already too scarred to understand anything at that moment.

After I gave my family a burial, we went to stay in the mansion, the big dark mansion that was going to be our safe place for a while. Everyone had left for their rooms except Fauna and Haiden, who were sitting on the couch with me and Mariana.

"Yorick, please don’t be sad," Fauna said, snapping me out of my thoughts.

I looked down and noticed I was holding Mariana’s hand on the table. She gave my hand a squeeze to show me that she was with me through thick and thin.

"She is right, dude. I can already tell that Clementine understands that whatever you did was beyond you," Haiden told me, gesturing with his hands and blinking softly to show me he was with me too.

"Besides, I’m really happy you’re with my sister," Fauna added in her cheery tone.

The last few weeks seemed odd, and I had been out of the loop. I did not even know that my friends had found mates.

Hearing that they had gone through rejection with Clementine was honestly surprising, considering I thought I would be the only unlucky one. But when I saw them with their mates, I thought maybe that was what happiness was.

It was wrong of me to assume they would live their lives in desperation when I had found love so quickly after rejection. Being with Mariana was a different kind of feeling, something I had never felt before.

She was strong and compassionate, and she stood by me through thick and thin, even in just two days. Just two days, and I was head over heels in love with her.

Probably because I had known her for a while, and this was practically not our first meeting. I had seen her before, and I had always thought she was extremely sexy and beautiful, minus the attitude.

That was what compelled me to never look at her or the others the same way.

"And I heard you got accepted by Haiden. He’s a good guy," I said.

As soon as I said that, I noticed Fauna’s smile disappear. She was sitting right beside Haiden, who was watching her face, as if trying to see how she would react to his mention.

I could tell it did not look good. She was still hesitant.

"I hope everything is fine between you two," I added.

As soon as I said that, Haiden gave me a pout, the kind someone gives when asking for help.

"It is just that we didn’t marry out of love. I mean, one of us only did," Fauna said, letting out a little chuckle that sounded like a taunt.
