The Hidden Princess At All-Boys Alpha Academy

Chapter 0827 She narrows her eyes at him, trying to figure out what about that could be funny, and he laughs.

Midnight turns her head at Jesse, curious. "Why are you upset? We have so many nice new things - how could you be upset?"

Jesse frowns at her. "How'd you know I was upset?"

"You get a big line," she murmurs, drawing a finger between her own eyebrows and the perfectly smooth skin there. "It's all angry and bothered, like you got scratched by a weasel."

Jesse laughs again. "How on earth do you know what weasels are?"

"We have Weasels of Darkness here, Jesse," she says, looking at him with wide eyes and nodding seriously. "You do not want to mess with them."

Jesse laughs again but her face falls into a frown.

"Seriously, Jess," she says, her shoulders slumping. "Our lives are so good right now. Better than they've ever been. And soon your Juniper will be Queen of the Underworld - she's much prettier than the seal girl. Why are you so sad?"

"Because, Mids," Jesse says, reaching out a hand for her. She quickly scurries to the side of his new single-person cot, taking his hand. "Seeing June just made me worried about the rest of my family. You took me away from a war. They could be hurt, or dying. I can't help them while I'm here."

She frowns, squeezing his hand, and he can tell that even if she doesn't fully understand...she wants to. "Please, Midnight," Jesse says, looking at her earnestly. "Please take me back. Take us back." She snarls, her eyes going dark, and she whips her hand from his. "I'm not taking you there, Jesse." "Please," he begs, sitting up, reaching for her hand again, wanting to honestly plead his case. "My family is all there - our family - it will be so good -"

"Your family is there, but so is that whore." Midnight bares her teeth as she glares at her mate.
