A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 10

Chapter 10: The Initiation

Taros didn’t leave right away. He waited, watching Renn, making sure he left first.

He was protecting her.

Angela could barely breathe, let alone speak. But in her heart, she thanked the stars for Kaito. If he hadn’t stepped in, she would be dead by now.

No one had told her that the boy she stood up to was Alpha Renn. If she had known, maybe... maybe she would have thought twice.

She didn’t like bowing to anyone. But still, she wouldn’t have picked a fight with someone that dangerous. Not without knowing what he was capable of.

The way he held her up against the wall, like she weighed nothing proved it. He was no ordinary werewolf. He had power. Maybe.

"I’m sorry for what happened," Stales said gently, handing her another cup of water.

Angel took it. Her hands trembled.

She noticed the boys from the Red House staring. Some of them were smirking. They looked pleased, like watching her get hurt made their day.

It felt like they wished Renn had finished the job.

Was this what boys were like here? Cold. Unbothered. Even when someone was almost killed right in front of them?

She rubbed her neck. The pain was sharp and deep.

"Get well soon," Stales added.

"Thank you," she whispered.

She needed air. She couldn’t stay there any longer.

Angela stood and walked out of the dining hall. She moved down the long hallway, past the noise, until she found a quiet spot where no one could see her.

She leaned against the wall.

Her eyes shut tight. But it didn’t stop the tears. They slipped out, hot and angry.

It had always been like this. Since forever.

She didn’t start the fight. Everyone saw what happened. Renn had walked up to her, said those words, and made her spill the soup.

But now... she was the one getting blamed.

Just like Principal Jane.

They all looked at her like she was the problem for fighting back. For not staying silent.

Angela wanted to scream. To let the pain out.

But she held it in.

She wouldn’t give them that. That’s what they wanted to see the weak little human cry. To hear her beg.

No.

They didn’t break her out there in the real world.

Her mother didn’t break her.

And the Alphas here? They wouldn’t either.

"Hey," a voice pulled her back.

She didn’t look up.

"Are you okay?"

She wiped her tears quickly with the back of her hand. Then she looked up.

And froze.
