LOGINALEXANDRIA I placed the cup of tea in front of Caleb. He grabbed it with both hands and took a sip while I sat in front of him.“You drank that too easily for someone leading a war,” I muttered.He paused for a while and appeared to savor the taste of the tea. “This is nice. Did you harvest it yourself?” he asked, ignoring my insinuation.“I did,” I muttered. “It’s locally grown within the mountains behind our pack. I could have easily poisoned it, too.”A small smirk appeared on his lips. “I think I know you well enough to know that you wouldn’t do something like that.”“How could you trust me so easily?” I muttered.“Because you’re a girl who had just lost her brother.”He let go of the teacup and leaned forward, taking both of my hands in his. I had the urge to pull away, but I stayed still for now.“Do you think someone like you would be able to poison someone that easily?”“I would,” I said with determination. “But you’re not my enemy here. You’re not the one who killed my broth
CALEB“Alexei Hyde has died.”I would have killed this servant for not greeting me properly, but the news he had delivered was worthy of something more than a scolding—that is, if it was true.“Continue…”He let out a deep breath, appearing frantic. “It has been the news of the entire Alpha Academy. He killed Alexei Hyde in their most recent game, and the reason is believed to be because he wanted to take the position from you in the Wolfir Council… but Alexei was a hindrance to that.”“His body is being buried back in their pack.”I couldn’t help the small smile that appeared on my lips. Wyatt Frost had always acted like a man with the moral high ground. However, in the face of power, he had shown his true colors.However, there was still some room for doubt. I glared at the servant, making him flinch and take a step back.“How sure are you of that?”He didn’t dare meet my gaze, but he still shakily answered.“Like I said a while ago, Alpha, his body has already been buried inside th
ALEXANDRIA“Pizza’s here,” Faye said, entering through the front door. She said she couldn’t think on an empty stomach, so she volunteered to buy food while I showered.I was drying my hair while she plopped onto the couch, opening the box and not wasting any time grabbing a slice.“So, how are we going to lure Alpha Caleb to your den?” she asked. I shook my head. “Really? My den?”“So Wyatt can kill him,” she said with a smirk.I sighed and also grabbed a slice of pizza. “Wouldn’t it be strange if I went to him? I think he would be suspicious, especially since he knows I don’t care about him. Should I have acted like I liked him?”She shook her head, her mouth filled with dough and cheese. She swallowed before speaking. “That would have ruined the plan from the beginning. Caleb’s most probably interested in you because you’re not like anyone he has met.”“I agree with what you said earlier,” she continued. “Just because Caleb is interested in you doesn’t mean that he’ll run to you w
WYATTHe pushed me away, standing from his seat, breathless like he couldn’t believe what I had just said.“Surprise!” Chad chimed in by my side.I tilted my head to the side as I observed him. Sweat was already forming along his temples, and I could smell his fear in the air. It was subtle at first, but once I noticed it, I couldn’t miss it.“I-I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he stammered, still trying to cover himself up.“Let’s not fool each other, Elder Arthur. Your first expression already gave it away.”He bit his lip before closing his eyes and letting out a deep breath. When he opened them again, the fear was gone, replaced by a menacing look that told me he was finally done pretending.“Where did you get this information?”“From you,” I answered without any hesitation.He raised one brow and crossed his arms in front of his chest. “Is that so?”Chad sat on one of the seats and even propped his feet on the table. I shook my head at him. He really had a way of getting
WYATTAlex and I bid our goodbyes the next morning.She had woken up earlier than usual and prepared breakfast for us, and when I walked into the dining area, I couldn’t help but smile at the sight waiting for me.“So cute,” I murmured.Her cheeks immediately turned pink.“I just thought you should eat before you leave.”“I know.”I walked toward her, unable to stop the smile on my face. There was something about the way she cared for me that still caught me off guard. It wasn’t something I was used to. Having someone wait for me, worry about me, and care whether or not I had eaten before walking into something dangerous still felt almost foreign.I leaned down and kissed her forehead.“Thank you, baby.”She smiled.I was about to turn around when she suddenly grabbed the front of my shirt and pulled me toward her. I didn’t even have time to react before her lips met mine.My body stilled at first before I fully relaxed. My eyes closed as I savored the kiss.It wasn’t long or desperat
WYATT“Do I really have to do this all alone?” Chad asked as he placed Miss Bianca on the bed. She had struggled so much in the car, fighting against us every step of the way, but fortunately, she was now knocked out.It was still difficult transporting her, though. But, I wouldn’t know because Chad did it all himself.“Yeah, I don’t want her scent to get on me. I also don’t want my scent on hers. She might get the wrong idea when she wakes up. I’ll just write her a note saying that I brought her here because she got too drunk.”Chad looked at me like he wanted to curse me out.“Why?” I asked. “It’s only natural for you to carry her yourself. You still haven’t met your mate. I can’t have Alex smelling her on me.” “Maybe teaming up with you guys is a bad idea.”I clicked my tongue, grabbed a note from the bedside table, and quickly wrote something down. I placed it where she would easily see it when she woke up.“Come on. Alex and Faye are waiting for us. My baby’s going to miss me.”
ALEXANDRIA“Are you not coming here tonight?”Wyatt's voice came through the phone, sounding pitiful. The sound of his voice made me giggle, a smile tugging at my lips as he continued to whine. I tucked my phone between my shoulder and ear while pulling on a pair of jeans.“I was there last night,
ALEXANDRIA“Good day, Headmaster Sora,” the Alphas said in unison as they settled into their seats, causing me to purse my lips. Sora. Even his name carried a sense of popularity. His deep voice resonated through the hall once more. “It has been a month since the freshmen arrived on campus. How ar
ALEXANDRIA “What an asshole.” After telling me about the assembly, Chase just threw on a shirt and stormed out of the room. When I asked him if we could go together, he told me to figure it out for myself. Now, I was lost in the sprawling maze of this Academy. Who knew that finding the gymnasi
ALEXANDRIA I stared at my reflection in the car mirror while Ryland drove us to the Academy. Mandy was in the backseat, singing along to the latest viral songs on the radio. Mandy had cut my hair evenly and placed it in a lazy half-up and half-down. She had also concealed my naturally rosy cheeks
