A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 158: Hey, You, Red-haired boy.

"Are you alright?" Renn asked. He sat in the back seat with Kael’s head resting on his lap. They had managed to get him into the car, and now they were on their way to the principal’s house.

"I guess so," Kael murmured, trying to open his eyes. Just hearing his friends’ voices made him feel a little better, though the pounding in his head was so strong it didn’t seem natural. Something had to be behind it.

"Thank goddess," Kaito breathed out in relief. His eyes flicked to the rearview mirror, watching them in the back before focusing on the road again. Then he remembered the bottle of water he had left. "Give him water. It might help."

Renn quickly reached for it. He opened the cap and handed it to Kael, who drank every drop before forcing himself to sit upright. The car fell into a heavy silence. Each of them had questions, but none of them wanted to be the first to ask.

"I’m having a terrible headache," Kael admitted, pressing his palms against his temples. He wished it would stop.

"Sorry about that," Renn said softly. He was simply glad they had found him. "Do you have painkillers in here, Kaito?"

"No. I don’t keep drugs in this car."

"Why?" Renn asked, frowning.

Kaito glanced at him through the mirror. "What do you think, Renn? You expect this to be Taros’ car, where you can find all sorts of things?"

The mention of Taros pulled a sad smile from Renn. He leaned back, staring at the roof of the car as if searching for memories. "I just remembered him. I miss him. If he were here, Kael would already be fine. That’s why I told you from the start to take someone else with you on this journey."

"Don’t start, Renn. Not now," Kaito said firmly, his grip tightening on the steering wheel. Kael gave a weak chuckle.
