A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 191: The Signal.

The door opened just as they were about to leave. Renn stood there, surprised to see her ready to go when he had told her to wait.

"Where are you going?" he asked, closing the door behind him. He kicked off his shoes and walked to her. "I thought we agreed you would wait for me."

"I changed my mind. My class starts in less than ten minutes," Angela said, reaching for her shoes. Renn did not move. He stepped in front of her, his eyes fixed on her. She swallowed, feeling the steady rise of the heat between them. "I am at odds with your brother. If I am late, he will be worse."

Renn put his hand under her chin and lifted her face. Stales looked away before he pressed a soft kiss to her lips. Angela closed her eyes and let the small, warm touch hold her for a moment. She wanted to stay, but her classes mattered.

"Kaito told Samuel to handle it," Renn said when their lips parted. He sounded calm, but she could hear the edge in his voice. "Kaito is not in the right place to help you."

"He is so angry he does not want to see me," Angela said, rubbing a hand around her neck. She did not know how long this silence would last. The distance from them was already tearing at her. "Is this how it will be now? I do not want to lose them."

"Babe, breathe," Renn said, slipping an arm around her waist and pulling her into a safe hold. He rested his chin on her head and she felt his heartbeat steady against her. "I will help. I will talk to them. We will fix this."

"Are you really going to help me?" Angela asked, looking up into his green eyes. She searched his face, unsure if he was sincere or only trying to calm her.

"Why would I not?" he murmured, kissing her forehead. His answer was simple, but it landed deep inside her.

Angela froze, surprised that he had agreed so easily. She pulled back from his arms and searched his green eyes, desperate to see if he was lying. "You really mean it? I can’t believe this, Renn. What happened to ’I can’t share you with anyone, you’re mine alone’?"

"Do I sound that bad?" Renn laughed, mimicking the tone she used.

She chuckled softly. "Maybe... I’m not sure."

"Wow. Well, I never wanted to share you. But the goddess made it this way, and the more I try to keep you only to myself, the more it hurts you. You’re tied to them too, and you want them. If I truly love you, I have to let it happen."
