Defy The Alpha(s)

Chapter 121: My One and Only Alpha

For the first time, Violet experienced the most tense and suffocating ride back to the academy. Roman hadn’t even bothered with his usual flirtatious remarks or playful conversation. Instead, he kept his eyes on the road, his face impassive.

But even with the lack of expression, Violet could tell he was greatly bothered with the way his hands gripped the steering wheel hard till the veins on his hands bulged. Even the music he turned on was nothing but noise as it did nothing to ease the tension in the car.

Violet sat stiffly in her seat, counting the seconds until the ride was over. Her body was wound tight like a coiled spring as every nerve was on edge, making her unable to relax.

Hence the moment Roman pulled into the parking lot and parked the car, Violet didn’t even waste a single second. She flung the door open and got out with the speed of lightning.

"Thank you!" she said hastily, not because she was thankful, but out of fear and then vanished without waiting for a response.

If Roman had said anything, Violet didn’t hear it because she didn’t dare to look back. Although she felt the heat of his gaze burning into her back, the fear of meeting his wolf’s eyes again was the beginning of wisdom; she moved on.

Violet slipped through the smaller side door, avoiding the busier main entrance of the school. Classes were already in session, and her schedule was free since she wasn’t attending her elective class. She pulled out her phone and opened the Lunaris app, scrolling to find Mr. Richmond’s office location when a voice interrupted her.

"Hello, Violet," someone said.

Startled, Violet looked up, expecting to see a familiar face. Instead, it was a student she didn’t recognize, waving at her with a smile.

Violet’s brows furrowed at once when she realized the girl was greeting her. For sure, the greeting was polite but it was unusual, considering her usual interactions with the other students were far from friendly.

Still confused by the gesture, Violet gave the girl what could barely qualify as a brief nod and brushed it off, continuing to follow the directions on her phone. But then it happened again.
