A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 121: Back To Starting Point

The other three of her mates stared at her, waiting for her answer, their eyes sharp with tension. She knew that if she chose even one of them, the others would pounce, and that was the last thing she wanted. Her heart pounded as she searched for a way out. Then she spoke, her voice trembling but firm. "I am ashamed of all of you right now. If you want to know the truth... you are all my mates. I don’t hate any of you. I care for each of you the same."

"That’s impossible," Taros said quickly. His eyes, deep and desperate, clung to her, searching for hope. She knew exactly what he wanted her to say, and once, she might have said it. Weeks ago she would have chosen him above the rest without hesitation. But things had changed.

The bond between them had tangled deeper with every trial, every wound, every touch. The truth was she had come to love all of them. Not one above the other. She wanted to know them all, to understand them, to hold them close. She wanted to give herself to each of them equally, but that would only matter if they stopped tearing each other apart.

"It is possible, Taros," Angela whispered, holding his gaze before turning to the rest. Her lips curved into a soft smile as she gathered strength. "There is no need to fight over who I love the most, because I love you the same. I will do my best to treat you equally, and I will find a way to heal you from your curses. We have so much ahead of us. Instead of fighting, why can’t you stand together?"

"I don’t like sharing. I have never shared before," Kaito muttered, his arms crossed tightly against his chest, his jaw set with pride.

"I don’t want to share my girl either," Renn added with a careless shrug.

"Me too," Hiro said, his voice low but firm.

Taros nodded silently, his silence showing his agreement more than any words could.

Angela’s chest burned with frustration. "If you keep acting like this, you will drive me insane," she cried, slipping out of Taros’ grasp. She stepped into the center of them all, forcing them to look at her, her voice trembling with pain. "Today is my birthday. Is this what you planned for me? Is this your surprise?"

"No," Renn muttered first, his cheeks flushed with shame. He hated himself for letting things go this far.

"Sorry, it was Kaito’s fault," Hiro quickly added.
