Chapter 224
224–An Uing War
It‘s been a week since that messy incident, and I haven‘t received a text back from Thiago. He left for
his back and didn‘t return for an entire week. I tried contacting him, but his cellphone was switched off.
He did inform the principal that he needed to sort out some issues in his pack, but I found it to be a lie.
No way, the timing was so perfect.
“I am so sick and tired of this Poppy.” I have just returned from school and couldn‘t be angrier at that
girl. She had been on my back for no reason. Every time I pass her, she lets out ament or two.
“What did she do this time?” Lazlo questioned, while setting his phone aside and taking off his jacket
“She keeps taunting me for hurting my mates. I guess when Thiago and Zander were in an altercation,
she heard Zander mention something. Now she is using that against me.” I let out a sigh of exhaustion.
“So, what is the issue? She is like an ant to you. Do your magic and turn her into a frog,” Maynard
commented, walking out of the bathroom after taking a shower. I rolled my eyes and ignored him. He
had been very chill with me and I was still not in that zone yet.
“I will see what I can do with her,” Lazlo reassured me. He will take care of her.
“No! I can’t do that myself. I am only sparing her for Oswin,” I said as I sat down on the bed to rest a
little.
Zander and Christina barged inside with weird looks on their faces. It seemed like they had an
argument beforeing to the room.
“Don‘t fucking do that,” Zander yelled at her when she pped his phone off the table as soon as he
attached it to the charging cord.
“I told you to stop talking to that girl. I don‘t like her,” she yelled, expressing her exhaustion to him.
“I was just helping her, okay?” Zander retorted, rolling his eyes at Christina. I had absolutely no idea
what had been going on between the two, but ever since Thiago beat him up in the woods, he hadn‘t
tried to do anything with me.
“Christina!” Maynard yelled at her, shaking his head to stop her from controlling her brother. I have
seen Maynard act very strange whenever she tries to stop Zander from flirting with someone. It was
odd to me too. Why did she care who her brother talked to?
“Do you even know who he is flirting with?” Christina asked Maynard when she didn‘t approve of the
look he gave her.
“That girl, Willow,” she finished. Lazlo and I shared a nce, and then a smile covered our lips.
“Hey! I am not flirting with her, I was only helping her,” Zander acted a bit aggressively. He even gave
me a nce when his sister exposed him.
“I don‘t want her around you. You know what kind of girl she is, right? She had been sleeping with
other‘s mates. Don‘t you see she has a kink for taken mates? She ruined two rtionships, don‘t fotget
that,” she was shouting when I cleared my throat to slide in ament.
“Um! She didn‘t do it alone. The mates were interested in her. If the guys can have a second chance,
why can‘t she have one?” I shrugged, pissing her off. I wasn‘t going to leave her alone, either. She
messed up my rtionship with Thiago. I will annoy her in return.
“It is between me and my brother,” she hissed, turning to look at her brother. I was about to pass
anotherment when a guard informed us that Mr. Tripper wanted to see us.
It was out of the blue, so we were all taken aback by the sudden emergency meeting.
“There has been some bad news that needed attention,” Mr. Tripper had gathered us all in the
auditorium to discuss something important with us.
We were all sitting in the front row because of the protocol the Alphas were bound to receive. Their
lunas were also sitting with them. Zander was somewhere with the others. However, the teachers were
sitting behind us.
“It has been brought to my attention that we have seen a rogue spying on our academy in thest few
days. It is no surprise that the wild rogues only want to harm us. However, this one in particr has
been seen working closely with the rogue king. What it appears to us is that they are nning
something. It is highly requested to be careful and avoid any trouble,” Mr. Tripper broke down the
deadly news to us. We were all silently watching each other and preparing to leave when we heard
somemotion outside the auditorium.
“Everybody! Wait here,” Mr. Tripper warned us, eyeing the Alphas to get up and take the lead.
Maynard, Lazio, and some other alphas got on their feet to rush toward the outside. I also got up from
my seat, worried about Lazlo.
“I think they should have taken you with them,” Christina whispered in my ear when nobody was
watching
“Shut up!” I hissed, ring at her for acting like a bitch in such a sensitive situation.
“I didn‘t mean to insult you. I mean it because you are more powerful.” She stepped back while looking
upset that I mistook her words.
“No! Seriously, shut up.” I repeated myself, “You cannot act like a bitch to me and then pretend like
everything is fine. You have been nothing but a pain in my ass. I want you to fuck off and leave me
alone.” I said to her, despite some of the students watching us. She awkwardly looked around and then
turned away from me.
“Oh, God!” One of the students who was peeping through the half–ajar door expressed exhaustion.
“They attacked one of us,” he added, andmotion hit the roof.
“Calm down everyone.” Mr. Tripper soon walked back with Lazlo and Maynard holding someone and
taking him to the side door to make it to the nurse‘s room quickly. The shortcut was going toe in
handy. The moment Christina got on her chair to get a better look at who had been attacked, she
jumped off the chair and covered her mouth with her hands.
“Who is it?” I asked, feeling desperate.

“I am so sorry!” She removed her hands from her mouth and made direct eye contact with me. I was
stunned when I watched her face as she mouthed his name to me.
“No!” was all I could utter before I dropped onto the chair after losing my bnce.
