Axel Umbrella Academy Novels & Stories

Chapter 64: Santa Cruz Night Tuesday – The Day The next morning, sunlight slanted through the tall arched windows of BludHeaven Academy’s cafeteria, turning the polished marble floors into pools of liquid gold. The usual morning chaos was in full swing: younger students darting between tables, trays clattering, the rich scent of fresh coffee mingling with warm pastries and something faintly metallic that only the older vampires seemed to notice.

Axel gave Maddox a stiff nod and turned to see Omegas arriving with a bundle of white cloth and long bars that will be used to frame the structure which will hold the canopy. "You can stop fiddling with that umbrella.", Axel said. "Damn it!", Maddox cursed under his breath when he saw what Omegas were bringing. Caden was telling them where to set up the canopy. Maddox threw the bent umbrella on the side and walked in large strides toward the source of his anger. "Drake! I want an explanation!" Drake laughed and dashed into the lake with Maddox hot on his trail. Two big guys rushed into the lake through the girls, splashing them in the process.

He was so close I could smell expensive tobacco, rain, and a raw, heavy musk that made my pulse hammer in my throat. "I'm Franco," he murmured, his gaze dropping to my mouth. "And I think Lyle just made the biggest mistake of his pathetic life. He thinks he broke you. I think he just let you off the leash." The heat radiating off his body was a physical weight. I had just lost my husband, but standing this close to Franco, the only thing I felt was a sudden, violent ache between my thighs. He held out a heavy, matte black invitation. "The Apex Bloom. It's a survival game for the elite. The prize is a billion pounds. But it doesn't reward beauty, Lolita. It rewards the hunger of a woman who h

"Stop! Suddenly you came and lectured me about properly caring for a baby?" Axel realized his mistake and excessive attitude. "Where have you been all this time?" shouted Blair while holding tightness in her chest. Axel pursed his lips like a child. "To the forest. I'm back to doing things I previously left off. I give seminars in cities and campaigns to save endangered animals out there. I reflected on many things and matured myself." Blair squint. "I heard you had an accident and got injured. You even refused to be taken to the hospital in town. But you seem fine."

They were small and hard and surprisingly comfortable, but I suppose sitting on them for a long time wouldn't be advisable. Axel came back out a few minutes later in shorts and a sleeveless tank top. My heart raced on seeing how light he appeared against the dark black of the materials he wore. Axel was caramel. Not as light as Dexter, but light nonetheless. And the black clothes he was wearing right now, made it all the more obvious. Well, when he said he was going to run, I didn't expect him to do that in his school uniform, did I?

Xander breathed, and turned sharply towards him. "Why?" He asked with a deep frown. "I also need some p*ssy to fuck in school," Xander shrugged and dragged me roughly. "Go over to the bathroom and clean your filthy body!!" He howled with a heavy kick to my back. I shrieked and hit my head on the wall hard. I caught a glimpse of Alpha Xavier grinning before walking away. My vision was blurred and a rush of weakness took over me. I fell heavily, but then my body didn't reach the ground. Someone caught hold of me.

she said with a smile, patting their heads affectionately. Axel and Mia exchanged grins and waved enthusiastically to their mom and Aunt Alice. "Bye, Mom! Bye, Aunt Alice!" they chimed in unison. "Have a fantastic day, my darlings," Nora replied, her voice filled with warmth. "Learn, explore, and make lots of new friends!" With their backpacks slung over their shoulders, Axel and Mia stepped out of the car, their small hands tightly clasped together. They walked confidently towards the school compound, a bustling hive of activity. The laughter of children and the chatter of parents filled the air, creating a vibrant atmosphere.

he ordered in a raspy whisper that had a shiver racing down my spine. "Wha—" my word was cut off when Ace's large hands cupped my ass and hoisted me into the air until my legs coiled around his torso, "what are you doing?" I chastised, a blush creeping up the side of my face with embarrassment as I noted the students around us staring. Ace dipped his head into the crook of my neck, tracing up the column with the tip of his nose before whispering, "Your two o'clock, black hoodie, you see him?"

I am nobody's property! The professor came in looking bewildered at what was happening. He adjusted his glasses and cleared his throat. "Silver Crest Academy isn't a place for violence," he said and turned to the guards, “Axel has never been the type to instigate one so I suggest you give him another chance and let him attend class.” He pleaded with the guards to leave Axel alone and I nodded at the men who had no choice but to leave, their black suits making them look like shadows as they disappeared through the doorway.

"Then why is someone who paints called a painter? Or someone who climbs, a climber? It's obviously arter!" Axel let out a deep sigh and massaged his nose bridge. "I swear. This is why you should've paid attention in class. I can't believe you became a Beta with that brain of yours." Axel messed up the wooden letter pieces and leaned back on his elbows. "I'm done with this game. I don't think my brain cells can handle your stupidity." "Hey!" Sebastian exclaimed. "Why would you do that? How would we know who won, then?"
