Keep your head high. Remember your name.

Her father’s advice rang constantly through her mind when she had followed the Alpha, though she wasn’t sure if she could trust anything he had said to her now. But her fake confidence disappeared the moment she turned to lock the door.

This was so stupid. Why was she even listening to him? Why had she locked the door instead of opening it and getting to safety?

She still had he hand on the lock as she tried to think of a way out of this. The last place she wanted to be was in a locked room with an angry Alpha.

“Turn around,” Ezekiel growled. “Don’t even think about running because I’ll catch you, Ava. And we both won’t like the consequences.”

With a shaky breath, she turned around to face him, but she didn’t dare look into his eyes this time. She didn’t know if looking anywhere else on him was any better. Her brain fizzled and stopped working when she looked at his body. The guy was huge and built to perfection. He wore sweats that moulded his thick, muscular thighs and shaped other parts of his body, which made her eyes widen. And the t–shirt he wore should have been outlawed. She could see every muscle, every curve, every indent. Among all the beautiful people in Phoenix Academy, this man still managed to stand out. He was truly a

“I warned you, Ava,” the wolf growled as he stepped forward. “You should have been gone.”

There was so much coldness and determination in his eyes that she forgot about her earlier thoughts as fear built up inside her. She stepped back but bumped into the door. There was nowhere to run.

“But if you want to play this game, then I’ll play,” he continued, taking another step forward.

“I’m not playing.” she said. She hated the wobble in her voice. “I tried, but the dean didn’t want to listen to me.”

“You should have tried harder.”

The Alpha closed the distance between them, and his movements were deliberate and slow, making her feel quite hunted. She felt like his prey, and if she made any move now, he would ounce.
