A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 220: The Test.

Chapter 220: The Test.

"What were you doing in the woods that day?" Miss Valois asked, her eyes fixed on her nephew. Suspicion had

becsecond nature to her. If life had taught her anything, it was never to trust anyone completely, not even

family.

"I went for a jog in the woods. Everyone does, aunt," Dave said, surprised by her question. "Why are you even

asking that?"

"Because that place was out of bounds for all," she replied, fear flickering in her eyes. If he turned out to be the

man she had been running from, then she would make him pay. But Dave was quiet, calm, and nothing about

him matched the Patriarch.

"It was not out of bounds for staff. They said students were not allowed. You and | are not students. We both

went there for the sreason or maybe different ones," Dave said, his voice sharp. "Wait, are you accusing me

of something? Because it looks like you are."

"N-no," Miss Valois stammered, her eyes dropping to her desk to avoid his gaze. He was quick to sense

something was wrong.

"Yes, it does look like that. But you should be the last person to judge anyone in this family." He stepped closer,

placed a locket on her desk, and said, "Here is your property."

"Thank you," she whispered, picking it up quickly and locking it away in her drawer. Her heart beat faster as she

remembered a question that had been haunting her. "I heard you are working on a project with Taros. What is it?"

"You did not just hear. | know you have seen us together a few times. It is nothing much," Dave said firmly. He

had learned her tricks and was not going to fall into them. "We are working on a drug for his horse back at home.

Nothing serious."

"Oh, | see," Miss Valois nodded, relieved. Nothing dangerous was going on between the boys. That eased her

mind a little. Tonight she had to decide what to do with Angela. She had no more tto waste. "You may leave

now if you have nothing else to say."

"Goodnight, aunt," Dave said as he walked to the door. He stopped halfway and turned back to her. His voice

carried weight this time. "I don’t like to get myself involved, but it is tyou let Renn live his life. If you want to

be a proper mother to him, then do it. And if not, then let him be. It is not a crto be born by you."

The door slammed behind him, pulling her back to reality. His words left her shaken. She closed her files with

trembling hands. She needed to rest, but her mind would not let her. Tonight was all she had. By tomorrow, she

would hand Angela either to Marcus Malynster or to the Patriarch.

Angela stood by the poolside, her eyes on the students swimming in pairs. Each human had been matched with

a werewolf partner, and the rule was clear. If both partners claimed first and second place, they would win five

hundred points for themselves and an extra hundred for their dormitory.

She knew how badly she needed those points. More than once there had been reports made against her to Kaito,

complaints that she was the reason the West House had lost points. It was a stain on her record, one she longed

to wipe away before the semester ended.

"Who do you want as your partner?" Stales asked, sitting down beside her on the bench. He had not seen her

since the night Kaito fell ill, and his presence brought with it a wave of comfort. She could tell he was waiting for

her to open up, to say all the things she had been holding back.

"You or Alex," Angela said, her shoulders lifting in a small shrug. "But maybe | will end up with someone else.

Luck is not usually on my side in things like this."

"I understand," he said softly.

"I think | am nervous," Angela admitted after a pause, taking a deep breath. She hoped it would calm her, but it

did little to ease the tightness in her chest.

"You should not be. You have prepared well for this day," Stales said with a reassuring pat on her arm. "You will

do just fine... just like your mate is good at it."

"Which one?" she asked before she could stop herself, forgetting he meant Kaito.

"The cold one," he whispered, and the way he said it made laughter escape her lips without warning. The sound

startled her, but it also lightened the weight she carried. A few eyes turned in her direction, including Kaito's,

and Stales smirked. "He is looking at us. Oh dear."

"Stop it, Stales," Angela muttered, rolling her eyes.

"Wait," he said suddenly, his eyes widening. "Have you two slept together?"

Her quick nod and quiet laugh gave her away. His jaw dropped. "Oh sweet heavens, you really did it?"

"Yes," Angela whispered, still laughing. "And what about Taros?"

"Him as well. But Hiro is another story. He does not want to break the curse yet."

Angela’s smile faded. Her shoulders dropped as the weight of yet another task fell on her. "I will talk to him

about it soon."

"He has always been a little tic. | am sure he will caround," Stales said, patting her arm again. Then

his grin widened. "So, have you planned your threesyet?"

That made her laugh harder, laughter she struggled to control this time. Ignoring the curious stares around

them, she turned to him with warmth in her eyes. "I have missed you so much. Thank the goddess, | have you

here."

"I have you too," Stales said, laughing with her.

Angela ran a hand through her hair and leaned closer to whisper, "I want to have the friends," her eyes drifting

toward Taros and Kaito.

Stales’s lips parted in surprise before he chuckled. "You are unbelievable. | never thought you were this crazy."

"It is just a fantasy," Angela said, lowering her voice. "I do not think they would ever agree. They are still trying

to get used to sharing. | do not want to make things worse by bringing it up."

"You are right about that. Still, | am glad you are smiling," Stales told her.

"lI understand," Stales replied gently. "But you should call them together and talk. Or if that feels too much,

speak to them one at a time. Maybe start with Kaito. He will have no choice but to listen to you."

Angela hissed under her breath and rolled her eyes. "He has been lying toa lot lately. | would rather not ask

him anything again. But after today’s test, | will figure something out."

"Next is Angela and Alex as a team," the examiner called out. Xavier was paired with Stales, and four other

students were matched as well.

Angela rose to her feet and walked to
