Defy The Alpha(s)
Chapter 12
Chapter 12: Lunaboard
Disgust twisted low in Violet's belly, a sickening churn that made her want to throw up. She'd seen a lot in her old school, but this was on another level of twisted. Her anger zeroed in on one particular comment, the idiot who had moaned about not getting a peek under her clothes.
Her skin crawled. She noted his username with icy precision, already plotting a way to track him down. When she did, he would regret the day his mother hadn't used protection; his existence was a mistake she intended to fix.
For a moment, Violet wondered if Mary had been right when she'd warned her to keep her head down and avoid drawing attention. Maybe this place wasn't a real school after all, but some warped social experiment or a rehabilitation center for budding psychopaths, where scholarship kids were just thrown in as entertainment. The thought felt wild, but here... maybe it wasn't so far-fetched.
Regardless, there was no going back now. She'd have to ride out this storm that was Lunaris Academy.
Without a word, she snatched Lila's phone right out of her hand.
"Hey!" Lila shouted, trying to grab it back. Violet blocked her with her body and furiously swiped at the screen, her fingers clumsy but determined.
"What on earth are you even trying to do?" Lila demanded.
"Trying to delete the video!" Violet hissed, her frustration mounting. She wasn't tech-savvy, but she was determined to figure it out.
"You can't!" Lila cried out. "Even if you delete it from my feed, it's already gone viral all over Moonsphere."
Deep down, Violet knew it was too late. But she'd hoped, against all odds, that she could still undo the damage. It was a fool's hope, she realized bitterly.
Violet ran a hand through her hair with an annoyed groan before tossing the phone back to Lila, who caught it swiftly. Lila pouted as she cradled the device, petting it as though it were a wounded pet Violet had manhandled.
"Is this school really like this?" Violet burst out. "Just preying on people's weaknesses and mindlessly worshiping jerks like Griffin?"
Daisy's expression turned serious, and she warned, "Careful about badmouthing the cardinal alphas. The walls have ears here, and you don't want to find yourself in more trouble than you bargained for."
"And she's not even grateful," Ivy sneered from her bed, disdain dripping from her voice.
"Well, excuse me for not being grateful to be choked by some entitled asshole. Though, it sounds like you'd enjoy that kind of foreplay. Too bad you didn't get lucky enough to take my place," she shot back, her voice
