Chapter 88: Mr. Anonymous?
Stales was the one who had texted Evan, telling him to cout so they could have a proper talk. Evan didn't
argue. He replied that he'd be there in thirty seconds. They waited, watching the path, keeping calm and alert
until they saw him approaching. As soon as Evan cinto view, Stales quickly sent a message to Renn, letting
him know that the boy was out of the room and they could move into action.
"I hate the fact that we have to apologize to him when we didn’t even fucking do anything wrong," Alex hissed,
folding his arms across his chest. His jaw was tight, and the irritation in his voice was clear.
"We have to—" Stales stopped talking the moment Evan got closer. He forced a smile onto his face, trying to look
welcoming as he stepped forward. Then, raising his voice a little, he said, "Hello, Evan Thatcher."
"I didn’t get your nthe other day," the slim, clumsy-looking boy replied. He turned to Alex. "Hello, Alex. And
you are?"
"Stales. It's not so difficult to grab," Stales answered dryly. Something about the boy's calm tone got under his
skin, even though Evan hadn't done anything wrong.
"I will," Evan said, standing there with his hands together in front of him. He looked at both of them, his eyes
clear and questioning. "Why did you guys callout here? | didn’t do anything. Your friend wrongly accused me,
and if this is going to be another—"
"Can you calm the fuck down?" Alex cut in, his brows furrowed in frustration. "We didn’t call you out here to beat
you up or blyou for anything. We know you're not the one behind all this bullshit."
"Yes, Evan. We messed up," Stales added, lowering his voice as he looked at the boy. "We wrongly accused you,
and Mr. Slade made sure we heard it. Our Alphas too. We were wrong, and for that, we're here to apologize."
Evan looked at them both. He didn’t seem angry. Just tired. "I don’t have a problem with either of you," he said,
his voice soft, almost too calm. The guilt started to hit Stales even harder. He remembered how badly he'd
wanted to hurt this boy just a few days ago. "But | had to report you when Mr. Slade askedabout that video
going around the Academy Buzz. Your friend almost disfigured my face."
"Thank you for mentioning that video," Alex said, stepping forward slightly. But the moment he noticed Evan
stepping back a little, he stopped and took a few steps away to ease the tension. "Relax, for fuck’s sake. You're
safe. We're not going to hurt you."
"Well, at least that friend of yours who punchedisn’t here, so yeah... | guess I'm in safe hands," Evan said
with a small smile, his eyes falling to the ground.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlex rolled his eyes and said, "Angel is upset about everything that happened between you two. The principal
even called him in for a meeting about it. He's frustrated, and that’s why he couldn't cto apologize to you
himself."
"No problem. | don’t hold grudges," Evan nodded calmly. "If you're done with the apology, can | go?"
Just when they were about to ask him the real question—about the new video of Angel that somehow got
recorded in his room—the power supply suddenly went out. It was strange. That sort of thing rarely ever
happened at the Academy. The school had systems in place to make sure nothing interrupted the basics—
especially not electricity.
"That's strange," Evan said, glancing toward the dormitory with narrowed eyes.
Alex knew exactly what was happening. This was Kaito’s doing. He needed to buy him more time, so he stayed
calm, ready to stall Evan a little longer.
But before he could say anything, the clouds above began to tremble, and a loud thunder rolled through the sky,
sharp and deep. Then cthe lightning, bright and violent. Without thinking, they ran together toward a large
tree nearby, crouching underneath it to avoid the blast.
After a few seconds, they started hearing things break. Glass. Shards cracking and falling in the distance. Stales
couldn't help but smile. That was the signal. Kaito had done it. Everything was going according to plan.
"What the fuck is going on?" Evan asked, fear clear in his eyes. It was the first the showed any real panic.
The boys saw it, saw how fragile and unprotected he looked. He was an Omega. No matter how strong he tried to
act, they knew he needed to be shielded from this shit. But he shrugged them off when they tried to keep him
behind. "Why is this happening?"
"The god of thunder is having a meeting with his disciples," Alex replied with a straight face.
Stales nearly burst out laughing. What the hell was that? Why would Alex say something that stupid? And did he
really think Evan would fall for it?
"There’s no such thing," Evan snapped, clearly not buying any of that crap. He made a move to head back
toward the dorm, but both boys blocked his way.
"So what do you think it is, then? Tell us," Stales asked, trying hard to hold in his laughter. This had to be the
most ridiculous conversation he'd had in weeks.
The argument dragged on longer than it should have. Evan and Alex kept going back and forth about thunder
gods and logic, both of them too stubborn to back down. It would've been funny if the tension wasn’t so damn
high.
But everything shifted when Evan's wristwatch started beeping.
He looked at the watch and noticed something strange. The warning light that had been red just seconds ago
suddenly turned white, and then it went completely quiet before switching off. Evan stared at it in shock. Then
he slowly raised his head to look at the two mischievous boys in front of him.
His hands curled into tight fists.
Then his eyes began to glow.
Stales gripped his phone tighter. He and Alex both noticed the sudden shift in Evan's body language. That calm,
innocent, almost fragile boy they thought they knew... he was gone. What stood before them now didn’t look
weak or scared. He looked powerful.
His eyes were glowing. Not just glowing—but completely blue. The iris, the cornea... every part of his eyes
turned into that strange glowing shade of blue. It lit up his entire expression like something out of a nightmare.
The boys stared, frozen.
"He's not an Omega," Alex said, stepping back slowly as the truth hit him. "He’s something else."
"I don’t know what the fuck he is," Stales whispered, still trying to catch his breath, "but we shouldn't fight it."
But Alex wasn’t ready to let Evan get away. Not with Kaito and Renn still inside the building. They needed to hold
him back, even if it meant risking it.
He lunged forward, but Evan was faster. He landed a clean punch straight to Alex's face. Then he turned and did
the sto Stales without hesitation.
He tried to run.

himself. Just as Evan tried to push
forward again, Alex grabbed his wrist.
But then Evan bared his teeth—sharp, animal-like—and snapped toward Alex like he was about to bite. Alex let
go instantly.
"Fuck," he muttered, wiping his wrist. If that bite had landed, he didn’t know what the hell might've
happened....maybe an infection.

His wristwatch.
Alex picked it up, confused. It was still warm, still beeping faintly under his palm.
Stales was still catching his breath.

He had been the one.
He was the guy they had been searching for all along.
Angel had been right.
Without wasting a second, Stales pulled out his phone and sent a message to Kaito:
Something went wrong, Alpha.
