A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 150: Leveling Up?

"You have to get comfortable with the water, Angela. It’s not going to harm you," Kaito said. His voice carried so much assurance that it calmed her. "You can do it."

Angela slowly took his hand and stepped into the swimming pool. It was not too big, just right for beginners. The moment her body brushed against his bare chest, her heart skipped. He looked breathtaking, and she could not help but stare.

"Hey, concentrate," Kaito whispered when he caught her staring at him. They moved to the middle of the pool where the water reached her waist. Then, without warning, he began splashing water at her.

"What are you doing?" Angela gasped, blinking as water dripped down her face. She tried to wipe it away, but he only laughed and splashed more, covering her arms and shoulders. "Is this how you teach?"

"Not really. You’re an exception, mate," Kaito chuckled, scooping water with his hands and pouring it over her face again. She held her breath, exhaled sharply, then glared at him, though she could not hide the little smile tugging at her lips.

"Come on. Let’s go under the water, even if it’s just for a few seconds. Try to hold your breath," he encouraged.

Angela nodded. She thought he would go in first, but instead he wrapped his arms around her, pressing her against his wet chest. A shiver raced down her spine. It was not from the cold water, but from the warmth of his closeness.

"Are you ready?" he asked softly.

"Yes," she whispered, taking a deep breath.

"One, two... three."

Together, they went under. To her surprise, it was not hard at all. She could breathe. Her lungs did not burn, and panic never came. Kaito stared at her in shock while she smiled, almost as if this was natural. They stayed beneath the water for six whole minutes before finally resurfacing.
