A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 47: Alex ’s To Be Trusted?

"Don’t you think they look cool?" Stales asked as he swayed his body slightly to the music. Angela already knew who he meant. Kaito and Alex. They stood near the third cabin, talking in low tones, while the rest of the students danced and drank and laughed like they had no worries.

"Alex doesn’t know how lucky he is," Stales added, eyes still fixed on the two boys.

"Because he is standing next to Kaito?" Angela asked, pretending to focus on the wolfscan she pulled from the cold cooler shared by their House. Her fingers were shaking a little, but she tried to hide it. She was nervous, but Stales was too busy admiring the scene to notice.

"N-no... yes, that too," he said with a smile. His whole face lit up just mentioning Kaito. "He’s Kaito’s Beta. You don’t understand how big that is."

Angela’s brows pulled together. She knew exactly what it was like to be close to Kaito. She shared a room with him. And she knew how cold, distant, and dangerously handsome he was. Sometimes he reminded her of the godfather in one of those dark Mafia stories—quiet, commanding, and unreadable.

"I wish I knew what they were talking about," she muttered, lowering herself into one of the wooden chairs and taking a slow sip from her drink. Her throat was dry. Not from thirst, but from fear.

What were Alex and Kaito discussing? Was it about her?

Angela tried not to think about the obstacle test field. But the memory kept crawling back. The fear. The rush. The way she had pulled Alex out so fast, so easily. It didn’t make sense. She hadn’t used strength. At least not the kind she knew she had. She didn’t even feel herself struggle. It just happened. Like something had taken over.

Was it because of that small prayer she whispered to the goddess before the test? Was that what gave her the power? Or was it her wolf—was her true strength finally waking up?

But even that left her with no answers.

The one person who could help her understand was Mighty Storm. But her wolf had been quiet all day. Almost like she didn’t want to be found.

Angela’s chest grew heavy. Maybe it was because she hadn’t had her first shift yet. Maybe that was why Mighty Storm was slipping in and out like a shadow. Or maybe... maybe it was something deeper.
