Accidentally Pregnant By My Alpha Best friends (Madeline) novel Chapter 174

Madeline:

Flashback:

“I know you are hiding in there. Come on, come out. Do you not want to eat lunch with us?” I heard Silver’s voice from outside my bathroom stall.

I sat on the ground, hugging my lunchbox tightly. I knew what would happen.

She would steal my lunch, make fun of it, and throw it in my hair. That was her ritual.

I was only fifteen. She was too, but I never understood how someone could be so cruel.

The school staff did not care. She was an alpha’s daughter.

They took too much pride in her studying at our school and blessing us with her presence.

“Madeline. Mad Madeline.” She called me again.

This was not the first time she had used names like that.

She had many insults, but Mad Madeline was the one everyone knew.

“If you do not come out in five seconds, I will open the door and drag you out. I swear I will cut all your hair and leave you bald.” The minute she said that, I hugged my lunchbox even tighter as panic spread through me.

If I came out, she would make fun of me, throw food on me, and leave me starving. But if I did not, I would anger her.

Before I could get up from the ground and reach for the door, there was a loud thud against the bathroom door.

Someone had barged into the female bathroom, and the voices sounded like boys.

“Hey, you are not allowed in the girls bathroom,” one of Silver’s friends yelled.

Then she screamed and went silent. I began to wonder what was going on.

“Silver, that will be enough. Leave her alone,” Elgin yelled. I froze.

He had come into the girls bathroom to save me.

I opened the bathroom door and stepped out, rushing toward Elgin.

Silver stood in front of him with her arms crossed, looking annoyed.

“Are you kidding me?” Silver complained. Graham held me by my arms and pulled me to his side, and his friends stood around me to cover me.

All the boys had come to support me. That always angered the girls.

They hated that the alpha boys protected me.

That was why Silver chose to bully me in the bathroom.

She thought he would never come here.

But the way he rushed in showed how urgently he wanted to help me.

“Do you have no shame left in you, Silver? Seriously? You are going to pick on her in the bathroom? Why? Do you have nothing better to do?” Elgin grunted at her.

I noticed that Silver did not carry the same arrogance she used with me.

She was afraid of him.

“I was just playing with her. Come on, do not be rude. We are both related to alphas,” she whispered, trying to reach for his hand.

He glared at her, and she pulled back.

She always looked at him with a certain desire, and I knew she had a crush on him.

When Elgin held my hand, I watched the frown on her forehead grow deeper.

“Come on, let us eat lunch,” he said, holding my hand.

He was one year older than me, popular, and well liked.

Sitting with him at lunch would draw attention.

“Are you sure you are going to eat lunch with someone like her?” Silver questioned, sounding irritated.

“Yeah. I feel more peaceful when I am with her than when you are around me,” he replied.

Silver gasped, and her jaw hung low.

He pulled me away from the bathroom, and I followed him down the hall while Silver and the other girls stared at

1. us.

Flashback:

As soon as Elgin poured me another drink, I snapped out of my thoughts.

“Yeah, I remember that day as well,” he said, mentioning the little memory we had just shared about the day he came into the bathroom to stand up for me.

I guessed the day had been so tiring that a drink was what we needed.

I let out a deep breath and leaned back on the couch while he sat next to me.

“It has been a long time since we sat like this,” he remarked, tapping his glass against mine to cheers.

“Yeah, I almost forgot how easy it was to talk to you,” I replied.

Then he snapped his fingers as if something came to his mind.

“What?” I asked him.

He sat up and put his glass down.

“There is something we should do,” he told me.

As soon as he said that, I raised my eyebrow, wondering what he wanted to do with such urgency that he stood up so quickly.

He rushed out of the house, saying he wanted to grab something for us.
