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.

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