Chapter 56: Finding Mr. Anonymous.

"Alpha..." It was Samuel who broke the moment. He tried not to look at them too closely, clearly uncomfortable with how close they were. Angela felt her face burn with shame, but Renn didn’t let her go. She was frozen, praying it was all just a bad dream.

"The students are beginning to stare," Samuel added quietly.

"He..." Angela started, but before she could finish, Renn’s voice echoed across the field. He was already on the stage, standing with a few students.
