    Outside the roon,


    Lan was leaning against the opposite wall, staring at


    "Week Omega," he muttered under his breath


    He was listening to her screams, but he didn''t open the day


    It was her punishment.


    She needed to know who she tried to mess up with


    A ringtone yed in the hallway,n lowered his head and fotices Aud''s phote on the floor. He gathed it and noticed the caller''s name.


    ABIGAIL


    He did not receive the call. Messages popped up on the screen after fire ringtone was turned off


    He came up with an idea to unlock the phone. He was shocked that this girl did not even lock her phone with any passwords. All he had to do was sweep the screen.


    He read thest message from Abigail.


    "We are all waiting for you in the cafe. Where are you? Why are you not answering my calls?"


    A smirk reached the left corner ofn''s lips as something carne to his mind.


    He went to the message option and replied to Abigail.


    "Mom called, so I am going home. See you tomorrow."


    Abigail replied to that message immediately.


    "We had nned to go to the hospital. What about that?


    Jan raised an eyebrow while reading the message. "Hospital?" he murmured.


    But then he nodded his head. "How can I forget? Her mother is a doctor."


    He did not respond and locked the phone, assuming Abigail was talking about going to visit Ava''s mother in the hospital.


    He nced at the door. The shouting and screaming stopped a few minutes ago and did not resume.


    n, you have forgotten to bring the key," Ronald said as he came there with Paulo.

    to the storeroom. He was the one who helped him open the locked storeroom.


    "I don''t need it,"n replied.


    Ronald''s eyes went to the lock on the door. "Yeah, right."


    "What are you doing here, by the way?" Paulo asked.


    "Punishing that nerd,”n replied with a proud smirk.


    His friend''s brows shot up. "You what?" Ronald asked.


    "Why do you always ask me questions that I''ve already answered? Are you deaf?"n asked.


    "Why is she not reacting? Is she okay?" Paulo askedn.


    "Why do you care?"


    "Of course I care. You are my friend. Do you have any idea what''s


    happening to you? You never gave a damn about any girl before. But now you yourself go to this girl to pick on her. Have you forgotten that you rejected her?"


    "You should see if she''s okay," Ronald said.


    "Why would I?"


    "You are her future head Alpha. She is your pack member. At least as an Alpha, go and see her." Ronald tried to convincen with a gentle tone.


    He went inside to check on Ava. But the moment he stepped into the room, he heard the door m behind him.


    He turned around and yelled,


    "What the hell!"


    Ronaldughed from outside the door. "Because of you, we lost today''s practice match, Alphan. Now it''s your punishment to stay with your rejected mate."


    "Damn!"


    He ran his fingers through his hair in the dark, trying to find Ava.


    "Nerd? Where are you?"


    He called her. But he got no response.


    He thought about using his phone''s shlight, but then he realized that his phone was in the changing room. He was nning to punish Ava while plugging his phone into the charging port. He used their mind links to contact his friends at that time, after he took a shower. So he did not have to use his phone beforeing here.


    Suddenly, he heard a sound of sobbing..

    His keen cars detected the sound, and he moved in that direction.


    The storeroom was neither too small nor toorge. It was a medium-sized room where so many papers of past students'' were piled up on the floor.


    When his legs came into contact with a body, he found Ava


    Ava flinched at his touch. She began to sob aloud in fear.


    He walked to the window while passing the papers in the darkness. However, shifting in the dark and running were entirely different things. At the time, they could see around them because their wolf possessed the


    ability.


    As a glimpse of the sunlight entered the room, the room lightened up.


    He unknowingly stepped toward her and crouched down. He sat on his knee and patted her head slowly.


    "Are you okay?" he asked.


    Meanwhile, Ava was so scared that she had no idea who hade inside.


    She believed that someone hade to her rescue.


    She moved her head from her knees and directly hugged him without


    opening her eyes or looking at his face.


    His thoughts drifted back to the girl he kissed in the dark. He slowly


    wrapped his arm around her waist and thought,


    ''Why does it feel so familiar to me?''
