~ Marian's POV ~

I fought with every ounce of strength left in me, struggling desperately to break free from his crushing grip, but it was useless. It felt like I was trapped in an endless nightmare, and every movement only made his hold tighten around me.

His fingers dug into me like iron.

"Conrad... please," I begged, my voice trembling as tears shimmered helplessly in my eyes.

I was one thread away from passing out.

  • Hiding Among Alphas    Chapter 12

    ~ Marina's POV ~ "Are you ok?" Dylan asked as we walked side by side through the vast compound of the academy. I had just finished breakfast. Thankfully my uniform dried up before the next class, so I was privileged to attend the class. Even while I sat among the pack wolves, I couldn't help but think that they all wanted one goal just like Dorian and Dylan... and that's to kill my kind. I didn't pay any attention to whatever the teacher was saying, and thankfully he didn't notice my lost gaze. Conrad and Jaxon didn't attend the second class. I didn't give a single fuck about Conrad... but Jaxon, I also wondered if he came to Moonreign Academy to be stronger so he could kill all living rogues. I didn't even know when the class ended, and when Dylan offered to show me around the academy, I agreed without thinking. Yet here I was now, walking beside him in silence, my eyes fixed on nothing in particular while his voice became a dull murmur in the background. I stopped walkin

  • Hiding Among Alphas    Chapter 11

    ~ Marina's POV ~ Jaxon left for his room so he could freshen up from the bloodstains all over him. I felt really bad for the wounds he sustained because of me, but despite that, a small wave of relief washed over me knowing that by the breaking of dawn, his wounds would heal. That was the advantage of having your wolf. Wounds tend to heal at the breaking of dawn. But unfortunately for me, I wasn’t privileged enough to have that blessing. Since I haven't made my shift yet, my wounds take time to heal—just like the ones I have on my knee and beneath my feet. While Jaxon went to his room, I went to the cafeteria because I was very hungry. He was kind enough to show me the cafeteria hall before leaving. At first, the pack wolf at the door of the entrance of the cafeteria didn't allow me to enter the cafeteria because I wasn't wearing my uniform, but after I explained how Conrad tempered with my uniform, he allowed me to enter the cafeteria. I was grateful to him, at least he wasn't

"Conrad... please," I begged, my voice trembling as tears shimmered helplessly in my eyes. I was one thread away from passing out. If I wasn't wolf-less, maybe I would have been strong enough to shove him off me. Maybe I wouldn’t feel this helpless. "Con... rad" I forced his name out between ragged breaths, fighting to keep my eyes open. I was terrified. If I closed my eyes now, I might never open them again. I can’t die. Not yet. Not now. Not when I haven't gotten my revenge on these pack wolves. "Please... stop." I pleaded again, every word soaked in desperation as tears spilled freely down my cheeks. I couldn’t stop them anymore. Fear had cracked me open completely.

  • Hiding Among Alphas    Chapter 9

    ~ Marina's POV ~ I knew Conrad had promised to make my stay here in Moonreign Academy miserable, but tampering with my uniform? That was far too childish… even for someone as insufferable as him. Anger simmered inside me as I wrung the water out of the soaked fabric with trembling hands. Water dripped endlessly onto the floor, but no matter how hard I squeezed, the uniform remained damp and heavy. It needed sunlight to dry properly, and judging by the dull, gray sky outside, that would take hours. My heart began to pound. I don't want to be late. Not on my very first day. Principal Ramos had made it painfully clear that lateness came with punishment, and no one was exempt — not even someone from a powerful family. Aside from the punishment, I needed to stay in everyone’s good graces. I need to make them trust me. If I'm on their good side, it would make it easier for them to trust. With my uniform still drenched in water, I hurriedly took my bath. My movements were rushed and

  • Hiding Among Alphas    Chapter 8

    ~ Marina's POV ~ I let out what felt like my sixth sigh of the night as I rolled restlessly across the bed, the sheets twisting around my legs. Sleep refused to come, no matter how hard I tried. It wasn’t entirely because of Conrad’s threat… though, if I was being honest, his cold words still lingered in the back of my mind like a shadow. But that wasn’t what truly kept me awake. It was my parents. The moment I closed my eyes, their faces appeared before me so vividly that it made my chest ache. Father’s warm smile. Mother’s distant but familiar gaze. The guilt pressed heavily against my heart, making it impossible to breathe, let alone sleep. If the pack wolves hadn’t attacked our little village, Father would still be here, probably sitting beside me and telling me one of his endless stories about how cruel and merciless the pack wolves truly were. Sometimes those stories would make us laugh. Other times, our conversations turned serious—especially when he spoke about my inabil

  • Hiding Among Alphas    Chapter 7

    ~ Marina's POV ~ I winced sharply as he applied the ointment to my wounded skin. A sharp sting shot through me, making my fingers curl into fists. It burned—far worse than I expected—but I forced myself to stay still, biting down on the urge to hiss in pain. I couldn’t afford to look weak. He had brought me to a quiet, hidden corner of the academy, away from prying eyes, and immediately began treating my wounds without hesitation. “All done,” he said with a soft smile. His voice was calm—almost comforting. “Your wounds won’t sting that much anymore. But you would’ve had the advantage if you had your wolf.” I nodded slowly, my gaze lingering on his face longer than necessary. Why was he being so… nice? “Don’t mind Conrad, okay?” he added gently, reaching out to pat my hair. My heart skipped. Before I could think, I slapped his hand away and shot up from the rock, ignoring the sharp pain that flared through my leg. What was he doing?! I limped a few steps away,
