A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 82: A Crazy Idea

Stales had no idea what to do. He needed to stop the Alphas from coming together, but how? Alex had told him to cause a scene, but what kind of scene would be enough to hold back a group of desperate Alphas? His mind raced.

His eyes searched the area and landed on Xavier, still lying on the ground. Next to him was a knife, dangerously close to his pocket. That could only mean one thing—Xavier had planned to hurt Angela but hadn’t gotten the chance.

Stales frowned. What kind of person tries to harm someone they barely know? What was going through his head?

"I have to borrow this," he whispered and picked up the knife. No one was paying attention. "I was told to cause a scene, and I’m sorry... but we’re going to need each other if we want to protect someone who means a lot."

Before Xavier could speak or even move, Stales drove the knife into his thigh. Xavier let out a cry as blood poured out. It was brutal. It was sudden. But it was working.

Stales stood there for a second, breathing hard. His heart thudded in his chest. He had just attacked someone from the North pack. He knew Taros would show up any moment. That Alpha cared too much to ignore one of his own in pain.

But it still wasn’t enough.

Without stopping to think, Stales turned the knife and stabbed himself in the stomach. The pain was instant. Sharp. Burning. He dropped to his knees, eyes wide in disbelief. This was not what he expected. He clutched his stomach, trying to stop the blood, but it kept spilling out between his fingers.

It hurt more than he ever imagined. This wasn’t normal pain. Something was wrong. His breathing became unsteady as he looked at the blood on his hands.

That was when it hit him.
