The Hidden Princess At All-Boys Alpha Academy

Chapter 1006

"How do you feel?" I ask quietly, leaning towards her, able to see her better now in the dawn light that streams through the windows.

"What happened?" Jackson asks. I turn to see him standing at the door and I smile, reaching out a hand. He frowns at me, sending me a little pulse of worry that I didn't sleep, and then passing me some magic energy. I grin, quite pleased as he steps close enough to the bed that I can lean against him.

"Jesse and Ariel cleared my wolf," Midnight says on a happy sigh, just before she yawns. I laugh a little as she cuddles up in my pillows, clearly exhausted and intending to sleep right there.

"Do you still have your magic?" Jesse asks, leaning towards her, curious.

"Jess, let her sleep, she can answer that -"

But suddenly shadows burst from Midnight and she fades into the shadows behind the pillows, almost indistinguishable. "Yup," she says on a hefty yawn. "Still got 'em. Darkness lied to me. They must have come from someone else." "A gift from the God of Death?" I ask, turning up my face to Jackson, curious. He shrugs down at me. "Or Life. I don't know."
