Defy The Alpha(s)

Chapter 244: Violet Purple Has To Go

Jeremiah, Griffin, Alaric, Roman, and Elsie were gathered in Principal Jameson’s office, making the air inside feel suffocatingly tense. If anyone dropped a lit match in there, it might have erupted in flames given the hostility crackling among them.

None of the alphas were speaking. Each of them stood at their own corner, wearing scowls like armor, positioned as far from one another as the room allowed.

All except Elsie Lancaster, who sat primly in the chair before Jameson’s desk, legs crossed, looking unbothered and bored. She alone seemed immune to the atmosphere, her expression far too composed for someone at the center of a brewing storm.

Then the door flung open and in came Principal Jameson, her heels echoing sharply like war drums against the tile. She came around her desk and paused, taking one long, disbelieving look at the fractured scene before her.

There was disunity among the cardinal alphas. Something that had never happened in Lunaris Academy’s history, until now.

Then her gaze landed on Jeremiah. They narrowed. "Where is your Alpha?"

Jeremiah merely shrugged. "Out on alpha business."

It was the one excuse no one, not even Jameson included, could challenge. An Alpha on duty was untouchable.

Roman scoffed audibly from his spot near the bookshelf. Everyone in the room knew that was a lie. Perhaps Jameson knew that too judging from the way her jaw ticked. But then, she said nothing.

Instead, she exhaled slowly, tamping down her rage. "So," she said tightly, "what the hell is going on?"

Elsie arched a brow. "You’ll have to be a bit more specific, Principal Jameson," she said, her voice light with mock innocence.
