Chapter 142

Astrid POV

“OMG!” One of the cheerleading group girls exclaimed. “This is a picture of- of- And this message!”

Everyone had shocked expressions on their faces. Toren and Aiden had stiffened. They looked at Kael, and he looked like he was barely able to contain his anger.

“Who had the audacity to post this photo and message?” he growled, looking at every football player and the girls. He held my hand and pulled me closer to him as if protecting me from every backlash that was about to happen or from every sneer I would face.

No one replied as silence coated the air. The girls stared at both of us and then at Tracy. As if in defense, Tracy said nervously, “I didn’t post it!”

I relaxed and crossed my arms across my chest. “I know you didn’t post it, Tracy. After all, your back shows in the photo.”

“Yes, exactly!” she added. “I didn’t even take those pictures.”

The girls nodded, but then there was another ripple of fear in the room. Who posted it?

“Tell me now!” Kael seethed. “Who the fuck has posted it? If this photo and message aren’t deleted within the next fifteen minutes, don’t be surprised if I lose control!”

Toren and Aiden came to stand in front of us. Their body language was like they were asking Kael to calm down. Kael had balled his hands in a fist and he let out a dangerous growl. A dangerous, animalistic growl that had me staring at him with wonder.

Toren turned to look at the others. “Whoever has done it, reveal now. Otherwise, this could get really bad now.”

The underlying threat in his words was palpable. It was like these boys were ready to physically handle the rest. Images of how they fought with a group of boys who dared to pass lewd comments on me in the school flooded my mind.

“Wait!” I said aloud, stopping these boys from going wild again.

The brothers snapped their heads towards me. “Astrid, leave it. This is under my control,” Kael said in a controlled voice.

What’s wrong with that?” I went to stand in front of him and instinctively, he wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me closer to him. “You all can take a picture
