LOGINWYATT“Caleb?” I muttered, looking at Ivan in confusion. “How could it be given to him when he wasn’t even in the same year?”Ivan shrugged. “I’m confused too, man. Honestly, I didn’t pay much attention. I went to their graduation because my brother was a resource speaker or something. They called out a different name, but Caleb went to get it instead.”“I think his name was... Brad? I’m not sure, but it definitely started with a B.”Keith slapped the back of his neck. “Your information is always so lacking, isn’t it?”That was the last of our conversation before we were summoned back to the field for the rest of the training. It was even more intense than the morning session, but I didn’t mind it.Ivan knew more than I had expected. For months, I had been stuck with the same information I already had. Rupert was going to be the key after all. It felt like I had found the missing piece of the puzzle.That was why I had sneaked out of the room, leaving my roommates snoring. It seemed l
WYATT“Damn,” I muttered as I stretched my aching muscles.I had just finished an ice-cold shower, but even after that, the nine hundred push-ups had done something nearly irreparable to my body. Every muscle screamed in protest whenever I moved, and even breathing felt like a workout.Keith and Ivan, my roommates for the night, looked at me with obvious concern.“What?” I snapped.“Are you alright?” Keith asked. “We saw you doing what felt like a million push-ups. Is your body okay?”“It’s fine,” I said as I dropped onto my bed. “Not bad. It was actually good exercise.”They stared at me like I had completely lost my mind.Maybe I had.But I’d gotten some useful information because of it. More importantly, I’d been even more determined to finish those push-ups because it meant I could talk to Alex.Speaking of...I immediately pushed myself off the bed, surprising both Keith and Ivan.“Where are you going?” they asked.I ignored them, stepped out onto the balcony, and dialed Alex’s n
WYATTI had been on a lot of training trips before, but never one arranged by the Academy. Again, it was only for chosen seniors and those seniors’ selected companions. However, I found myself not feeling excited about it at all.Because I had to be away from Alex for two whole days.I could have asked her to join, but I knew how dangerous it could be, especially with Damon coming. Still, damn, did I miss her.That was the only thing running through my mind as I arrived at the training grounds.It was only an hour away from the Academy, but away from Alex, it felt like an entire day of traveling.The moment I got out of the car, I saw that the other Alphas were already shirtless, hauling massive truck tires over their shoulders. I frowned.They had already started?They must have only arrived a few minutes ago.The trainers stood over them, most of them government guards and warriors. Their voices echoed across the field as they barked orders at the Alphas to keep moving. One of them
WYATT“Why is she not responding?” I muttered as I stared down at my phone.My wallpaper was already a picture of Alex sleeping peacefully. How could someone look this pretty while asleep?My annoyance over her not answering quickly melted into fondness. This wallpaper was dangerous. Instead of making me want to reprimand her for not seeing me off, it only made me miss her even more.My bags were already packed, and we were leaving for a two-day training trip over the weekend. It was meant for selected senior students of the Academy, though younger students could come as long as they were accompanied by a senior. That was how Caleb managed to join whenever Bradley went.“Yo.”Keith popped his head into my room.“Are you not going? The bus is already here.”I clicked my tongue. There was no way I could leave for two whole days without seeing Alex first.Hell, even sleeping felt like a waste these days because it meant I couldn't see her or hold her.“Go ahead,” I said.Keith frowned.“
ALEXANDRIA Faye followed after me, still a little shaken up. We had just gotten out of the bar, and I took a deep breath as soon as we stepped outside. The smell of alcohol and cigarettes had been overwhelming for me, too. The cool night air felt like a relief against my skin.“I don’t have a car, so I’ll walk you there,” I said, turning slightly toward her.It was then that I realized we were about the same height.She sighed. “You can’t even afford a car?”I laughed. “Well, not everyone is privileged.”Besides, I had Wyatt to drive me anywhere now.Speaking of him, I really did miss him now that we’d made our relationship official.Well, sort of.He still hadn’t actually asked me, but it felt official enough.“It’s this way,” she said, snapping me out of my thoughts—and out of the image of Wyatt that had taken over my mind.“Right,” I muttered before quickening my pace to walk beside her.She clicked her tongue.“You’re not even good with directions, and yet you want to take me bac
ALEXANDRIAShe was a piece of sunshine, wasn’t she?Note the sarcasm in my tone.Zach went closer to her and poked her side, making her curse and whirl toward him with a glare. Zach visibly gulped and raised both hands in surrender.“I was just meaning to ask—since you agreed to come here, do you want to go back to Alpha Academy? We’ll tour you around.”Faye’s expression soured. “I only went here because I was bored and because Damon wasn’t texting me back,” she snapped. “I didn’t come here so you can sleep with me at your all-male academy.”Several people at the booth went silent.“I already know the likes of you, and how you call girls here so you can sleep with them and discard them the next day. I’m not that kind of girl, and frankly, I will not be with anyone except for Damon.”I actually wanted to applaud her for her values. However, I felt her latter statement was deeply flawed.Despite these playboys being complete assholes, there was no bigger asshole than Damon.He was, toge
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,
ALEXANDRIAWyatt kissed me deeper, his arms tightening around my waist. His lips moved slowly against mine as his tongue entered, caressing gently. His fingers traced circles on my back as we continued making out. It was already nighttime again, and Wyatt wanted to spend it tangled in the sheets a
ALEXANDRIA“I can feel you staring at me,” I said with one eye open.Wyatt was right next to me, his head propped up on his elbow as he looked at me with a smile. It felt like I could see puppy ears on the top of his head and his tail wagging behind him.“You didn’t feel me staring at you for sever
ALEXANDRIA His fingers moved inside me with a patience that bordered on cruel. Each curl against that sensitive spot sent sparks through my spine, but he never gave me enough to push me over. I was trembling, my thighs shaking around his hand, my breath coming in ragged gasps.“Please,” I whimpere
