A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Fate?

Chapter 13.

Kaito stood there with his eyes fixed on the body lying still on the floor. It was Angel. His chest tightened just watching him like that. He couldn’t tell what was so fun about any of this. Usually, they all jumped into Hiro’s mind games, helped stir the madness and pushed the victim over the edge... but today felt different. He didn’t join. Taros didn’t either.

Only Renn was inside with him. And Angel?

He kept twitching, his body reacting like he was being burned from the inside. His hands moved to his back over and over again, like he was trying to reach a wound no one else could see.

Kaito hated this feeling of helplessness. He wished he could see what was happening in that twisted world, but Hiro had locked him out. That was the rule...no entry if you refused to play.

So he stood still, his hands clenched at his sides, jaw tight. He didn’t want to interfere. But something felt wrong.

"How the hell did Angel manage to piss Hiro off this bad?" Taros asked from beside him. He was trying to act normal, but his voice gave him away.

Kaito let out a breath. "I don’t know, man. I thought Angel would calm down after what happened with Renn at the cafeteria. Guess I was wrong."

"You think this is fate?" Taros asked suddenly, like it had been sitting on his chest for a while. "Meeting all four of us in one day? That doesn’t happen. Not by chance."

"Fate?" Kaito muttered with a slight shake of his head. He leaned back in his seat, arms crossed. "Angel is just stubborn and reckless. He doesn’t think things through. He’s messing up everything."

"It’s fate, Kaito," Taros said, not backing down. "I really believe it is."

Kaito gave a half-smile, one that didn’t reach his eyes. "Let’s hope it’s not," he said and turned away, eyes falling back to Angel’s body lying still on the ground. A sinking feeling hit his chest. Something didn’t feel right. He sniffed the air, and his frown deepened. "Wait, is..."

"That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you," Taros said. "It’s fa—"

"No. Not fate." Kaito cut him off sharply. "I mean literally. Look at him. He’s bleeding."
