A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 53

Chapter 53: A Protective Mate?

Angela stepped back slowly, her eyes fixed on the bloody message. Her whole body felt cold. She wanted to scream, but doing that would only make things worse. Students would rush over. Someone would record it. They’d upload it to the school’s gossip page, and by the end of the day, she’d be the laughingstock of the entire Academy—again.

She slammed the locker shut and leaned against it, trying to steady her breath. This felt like a nightmare. A sick, twisted dream she couldn’t wake up from. Someone was threatening her. Someone hiding in the shadows. And they had given her a deadline—the next full moon. Her heart sank. When the hell was that? Who would do this to her? What had she done this time?

"Hello, beauty."

She flinched. The voice startled her, and she turned to find Stales approaching with Alex beside him.

Angela forced herself to breathe. Her mind was racing, but she kept her voice steady. "Where were you two? I looked for you in the cafeteria."

"We were asked to take breakfast to Alpha Hiro," Alex replied. His eyes scanned her face, and his tone shifted. "Are you okay? You don’t look like it."

Angela hesitated, but then stepped aside. "Maybe you should check this out yourself."

She glanced around, making sure no one was paying attention, then slowly opened her locker wide enough for them to see inside.

Stales gasped. "Mother goddess..."

The smell hit him immediately. The blood was still fresh. His face twisted in horror as he read the message.

Alex, on the other hand, didn’t flinch. His calm reaction bothered Angela. It was like he wasn’t shocked at all. She watched him closely, suspicion flickering in her chest.

"Won’t you say something?" she asked, not hiding her frustration.

Alex finally looked at her. "Someone’s playing a game with you. A dangerous one. Whoever it is, they want to push you. Scare you. Make you act without thinking."

"Or rush you into making the wrong decision," Stales added. He was trying to stay calm too, but he couldn’t ignore the way some students were now watching them from a distance. Their eyes lingered on Angela’s locker. Did they see it? Had someone already spread the news?

Then Stales pulled out his phone. A new notification had popped up. His face dropped as he read it. "Guys... something’s going on."
