Ava by L.G.Savage (HeartBreak)

Chapter 165

Ava sank lock into her seat hiding away from the purple gaze she saw in her nightmares every night. It felt like he could look into her soul. She couldn’t see the stage, but somehow, she knew their attention was sull on her.

From the tension she felt around her, she realised the Omegas could sense they were in the presence of evil even though their gazes lowered. Her heart was pounding, but she knew that for the first time, hers was not the only one.

She felt some pressure in her head, and then the icy fingers probed at her, the same icy lingers she felt in Isolation and the forest. She could almost feel the thick molasses feeling all over her body as the dark magic tried to work its way in. She sat still, afraid to even breathe.

“Good morning, students”

The dean’s voice rang loudly in the silent room, standing her. And with that, she realised her head had become a little foggy, as if she had been on the verge of being trapped in a spell.

She had to think about something else. Focus on something else like she did in Isolation. But she couldn’t think straight. It was as if something was snatching things out of her head, and incomplete thoughts were jumbled inside her.

“This semester, we have seen several changes in our academy that are guaranteed to bring out the best in each and every one of you,” the dean said. “Most of you have done the academy proud, while others still need to learn the values of our school.

Focus.

She needed to focus before she gave anything away.

The dean’s words just floated around her head as she tried to remember the beach and her imaginary Zeke. Would he come to her aid here? Would it work the same?

She looked over at the Alpha section to try to see Zeke, but she couldn’t find him. Instead, it was Claire’s cold gaze she met. She lost her focus again. staring into those lifeless eyes

“As we prepare for the real evaluations at the end of the semester, I am honoured to welcome our guests, Councillors Luca, Dalca and Lupei, and our esteemed President, Mr Hansson”

Again, the dean’s words pulled her out of the fog. The magic in the air was not allowing her to focus, What were they looking for? She hadn’t felt this the first time she met the councillors

The dean’s words whirled around in her head again. He’d said Mr Hansson. Not Alpha or King. Not even the High Priest. Just Mr.
