The Hidden Princess At All-Boys Alpha Academy

Chapter 0946

Midnight stares between Jesse and I with a frown. "What?" she asks. “What's surprising about this?"

"You'd really come and take care of Marigold?" I whisper, shocked and a little thrilled. I mean, I never even thought about hiring a nanny - but then again, I haven't thought about much of anything at all in the past few minutes besides how mad I am at my dad -

"Wait, you're enrolling in Alpha Academy!?" Jesse asks, a bit awed.

"Well, if Ariel can do it, I can too," Midnight says, casting out a hand towards me. "After all, I am much tougher and more powerful than she!"

"Oh, try me, Mids," I say, dry, grinning as I unfurl my hand, a blue flame flicking to life there.

Midnight grins wickedly as shadows shoot out from her, leaping for the flame in my hand. I gasp at first when the shadows hit my flame, feeling it like a true impact, but then I grin when I see the two forces grappling with each other. I laugh, putting a bit more power in it, and my flames gobble up her shadow.

"See?" I say, cheerful, grinning at her. "I win."

"Not fair," she snarls, pouting as she crosses her arms over her chest. "You got all those Goddess perks. If it was still just your red fire I could take you out."

"I believe you," I say, flicking my fire away. "We should experiment more with it, though. Could be helpful for both of us."

Midnight looks at me with a bit of suspicion for a moment, well aware that my fire can burn away the darkness in her soul, but then she nods. I smile, genuinely warm by the trust she has in me.

Jesse says, polite and sarcastic, "can we please get back to the point here? Mids, are you serious about wanting to
