Chapter 85: Dealing With Threats.

After two long hours in the cave, Angela’s body finally returned to normal. Her arms and legs were no longer hairy or tensed. She felt like herself again. The only thing that hadn’t gone back completely was her eyes. They still glowed when she wanted them to, which was strange but somehow comforting.

Stales suggested they should head back to the dormitory before the Alphas started asking questions or came looking for them.

"What did you do?" Angela asked, surprised when Stales casually mentioned he had stabbed himself and Xavier to buy them time.

"Did you really have to go that far?" Alex asked, shaking his head as they walked through the woods together.

"Wasn’t that a bit extreme?" Angela added, walking beside them. She was feeling much better now, like the weight she had been carrying for hours had finally lifted. There was even lightness in her steps again.

"I didn’t know any other way out," Stales said with a shrug. "That fool Xavier had a knife beside him, and the idea just hit me. I figured since he’s Taros’ Beta, it would get his attention."

Angela stopped in her tracks. The boys paused too and turned to look at her.

"Wait... Xavier is Taros’ Beta?" she asked, eyes wide.

"Yes, but it’s not official," Alex answered. "Taros hasn’t bitten anyone yet. But Xavier was asked to take on the role temporarily, just for the sake of duties within the Academy. Once Taros gets his real Beta, Xavier is going to step down."

Angela let out a breath of relief and placed a hand on her chest. "Thank goodness. That makes me feel better."

She looked at the boys with a soft smile. "Can we all share a hug?"
