A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 54: An Apology For last Night.

Angela stood still, her heart pounding. She didn’t understand why Renn would defend her. Was it just because they were mates? Maybe the bond between them made him act without thinking. Or did he already know she was a girl? The thought sent more chills down her spine. Whatever the reason, he didn’t stop, even though Xavier was already down and bleeding.

Renn walked to where Xavier lay and grabbed him by the collar, forcing him to stand. But before anyone could react, Xavier was off the ground again. His feet weren’t even touching the floor.

He was too weak to beg. His body hung limp, but Renn wasn’t stopping.

"Renn..." Samuel rushed out of the gym, panic on his face as he ran to them. He placed a shaky hand on Renn’s back. "Please let him go. The students are getting scared."

"He should’ve thought about that before doing what he did," Renn growled. His voice echoed down the hallway, heavy with rage. Angela could feel it too. It made her body tense. She wanted to step in, to say something, but what if that made it worse?

"I’m sure he’s learned his lesson," Samuel pleaded. "He won’t try it again." Then he leaned closer and spoke low enough for only Renn to hear. "You’re scaring your little sweetheart too. Look behind you."

Angela heard every word. Her eyes widened. Sweetheart? She wasn’t expecting that. What had they been saying about her? Her cheeks burned as Renn turned toward her. She quickly looked down, trying to hide her face. He didn’t look at her for long before turning back to Xavier.

"This is your only warning," Renn said coldly. "Next time, don’t test me."

Then he let go. Xavier dropped to the floor, groaning as he clutched his stomach. Angela winced. She knew exactly how that felt—she had been in that same spot just two weeks ago.

Without another word, Renn walked back into the gym. Samuel looked at Angela and nodded toward the door.

"Go inside now."
