A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 80: Their Mate.

Angela’s mind was racing. She didn’t want to hurt Xavier, but it felt like the only way to escape this mess. If the Alphas saw her like this—with claws and hair on her hands—it would bring nothing but trouble.

She started moving slowly toward Xavier, hoping to find a way to stop him from saying anything. But before she could do anything, Renn’s voice echoed through the field. He sounded furious.

"Is he bothering you again?" Renn growled, walking toward Xavier with deadly steps. The energy around him changed. Angela felt it. He was using his primal power. Without thinking twice, Renn’s fist slammed into Xavier’s jaw. Before Xavier could fall, Renn grabbed his collar and pulled him back up. He wasn’t done yet.

Angela kept her hands hidden behind her back. Her body was shaking. There was no way she could stop Renn without risking everything. If she stepped in now, Xavier might open his mouth and say what he saw. That couldn’t happen.

"You need to be taught a lesson, and I’ll be glad to teach you myself," Renn said coldly, landing another punch.

Angela turned her head away. She couldn’t bear to watch. She had no idea what to do. And what scared her most was that Xavier wasn’t even defending himself. He wasn’t fighting back. He wasn’t saying anything. He just kept staring at her—like he had seen something unbelievable. Something he couldn’t forget.

"Stop, Renn. You’re hurting him... he’s just a kid," Angela said, her voice low at first.

Renn didn’t stop.

She raised her voice. "Please, stop! Look at him. Something is wrong."

Finally, Renn let go. Xavier dropped to the ground, but even then, his eyes didn’t move. They were still fixed on Angela. It was strange... and unsettling.

Renn turned back to her, but as he stepped forward, Angela took a step back.

"Don’t come close," she said quickly, her hands still hidden behind her. She wanted to disappear. She wished the ground would open up and take her away. Anything was better than this.

Renn and Hiro were staring at her. Confused. Worried. And that made it worse. They could tell something wasn’t right.

Hiro could smell the fear coming from her. If she didn’t act fast, the others would sense it too. Her other mates would come. She didn’t want that. Not now. Not like this.
