The Hidden Princess At All-Boys Alpha Academy

Chapter 0877

Rafe is instantly on his feet, a snarl ripping from his lips as he crosses the room in a few strides and places himself between the intruder and his mother, tucking her back behind him. The page quails a bit at the sight of the fierce prince, his canines extended.

"See?" Maryam says, her voice pitched somewhere between pissed off and dry. "Was that necessary? The poor guy's just letting her know that there's a phone call."

"Thank you, Meatball," Ella murmurs fondly, patting Rafe on the arm. "But I think I'm okay."

Maryam bursts into laughter and Rafe blushes a deep red, tucking his fangs away and hating that nickname more than he ever has in his life.

"Please, highness," the page says, stepping forward and holding the phone out to the Queen with a shaking hand. "You...want to take this call."

"All right," Ella says, her eyes wide and her voice anxious as she reaches for the phone. Mark gets to his feet, everyone's eyes on the queen as she says a soft hello into the receiver.

A moment later Ella smacks a hand to her mouth, her eyes filling with tears.

"Mom!" Rafe gasps, stepping closer to his mother, reaching for her. "What's wrong!?"

But for once Ella ignores her favorite, dropping the phone to her chest and whipping her head to the side towards the doors behind which Roger and Dominic consult with their advisors.

"Roger!" Ella shouts, her voice loud and desperate, ringing out in the room. "Roger, come quick!"
