Chapter 92 The Man in the Car
Samson’s POV:

As soon as the car window rolled down, the evening breeze swept in, carrying the scent of pine from the training camp and brushing past my face.
I glanced over at Amanda, not far away. She was lugging two big bags, both stamped with the Lunar Pack specialty store logo-clearly something Theo had dropped off.
How could it be him?
Theo, the youngest son of the Lunar Pack Alpha, was spoiled rotten. He never cared about school, spent his days racing cars with Josh’s crew or wasting time in bars-a typical spoiled rich kid with nothing better to do.
But just now, the way he looked at Amanda was almost reverent. When he called her “Boss,” he sounded more respectful than he ever was with his own brother.
That was strange. Amanda was just an Omega with no wolf spirit, from a regular family. How did she get someone like Theo, who usually acted like everyone was beneath him to treat her that way?
Their relationship was clearly not just recent acquaintances, like she’d said last time. Theo scratched his head, mumbled something quick, and left in a rush, like he was afraid I’d ask questions.
Only after he left did Amanda turn toward me. Her eyes flicked up, a little uneasy, avoiding mine. “You … haven’t gone home yet?”
I didn’t answer. My eyes moved to the bags in her hands, and I tapped my fingers lightly on the steering wheel.
Fresh bread sat on the passenger seat, still warm. It was from that bakery she mentioned last time in the car. “I just happened to pass by the diner,” I said, my voice a little deeper than usual.
She looked surprised for a second. When she took the bag, her fingertips brushed mine, and she jerked back like she’d been shocked. “Thanks! I’m about to lock myself in and study for a bit, so I can’t really go out. Once I’m done, I’ll treat you to dinner to thank you.”
“Sure,” I replied, watching her juggle the snack bags and the bread. The plastic handles dug into her fingers until they turned white, but she didn’t complain.
She was probably afraid I’d bring up Theo, so she walked off quickly. “I’ll head back now.”
“Alright.”
I watched her disappear behind the iron gate of the training camp before looking away, my gaze drifting in the direction Theo had gone.
That kid just called her “Boss,” like they’d known each other forever. Definitely not “just met.”
Last time at the party, I saw them together too, and she hadn’t said a word about it.

I typed “Theo” into my phone and called my assistant. “Check someone for me-Theo Meskill. I want his social circle and what he’s been doing lately.”
“Got it, Mr. Ortega.”
After hanging up, I looked up at the clock tower above the training camp. Moonlight gleamed coldly off the spire.
She’s hiding more than I thought. As I started the car, the iron gate shrank in the rearview mirror, and I knew-some things had to be uncovered, no matter what.
Amanda’s POV:
Early the next morning, Jennifer, Clara, and I rushed into the classroom just as the bell rang.
We had barely sat down when Warren walked in, arms full of test papers. The room went dead silent—you could hear every breath. Everyone wanted to know the results from yesterday’s test.
Warren set the stack of papers on the podium, adjusted his glasses, and spoke loud and clear. “Yesterday we had a little test. I stayed up all night grading them. It wasn’t easy, but what surprised me most was that someone actually got a perfect score.”
“Whoa-“The whole class erupted.
Almost every pair of eyes turned toward Jayden in the front row.
