A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 214: The Alpha’s Poison.

"What is going on?" Eliza asked, her eyes moving from one face to another. Alex felt the ground slipping beneath him. If this woman suspected anything, she would call Marcus just like she did the other day when Hiro came asking questions. He could not risk that, not now that everything was so close to falling apart.

"Nothing. Everything is fine," he forced out, hoping Kaito would handle the blonde quickly and send her away before Eliza’s curiosity grew stronger.

"I thought you said they were dating, so why is she saying she is not his girlfriend?" Eliza asked aloud, confusion clouding her face. Her tone carried doubt, and Alex knew she was slowly becoming suspicious of the boys.

"No. They are just having a couple fight. We should stay out of it," Alex told her, glancing at his Alpha who was trying to calm the girl pressed against him.

Meanwhile...

Kaito’s heart was pounding when Eliza kept pressing with questions. Without thinking, he pulled the blonde closer and wrapped his arms around her, pressing her against his chest. He bent his head, whispering against her ear, "You are going to pretend to be my girlfriend, and we are having a fight. Do you understand?"

The girl stayed quiet, her body soft in his hold, almost as if she liked being there. Kaito let out a sigh, torn between relief and worry. He only hoped she would not take his act to heart. Later, when they got out safely, he would explain why he had to do this.

"She is leaving. We are not in good terms so she had—" Kaito began, but Eliza stepped out from behind the counter before he could finish.

"Why leave?" she asked, her arms folding across her chest, her gaze sharp. "It’s clear you upset the girl. Sit down so we can talk."

"No, we are fine," Kaito said, his voice strained, though he tried to sound calm.

"What about you, girl? What’s your name?" Eliza ignored him and turned to the blonde with a disarming smile. Kaito’s pulse jumped. He hated the direction this was taking, though he was glad Eliza had not asked him for the girl’s name, because he had none to give.

"Seraphina," the blonde answered sweetly, smiling as though she had no idea of the storm around her.

"That’s good. I am Eliza," the woman said, stretching out her hand for a shake. "Can we sit? I mean all four of us?"
