Chapter 77: Someone Knows

****************

Chapter 79

~Valerie’s POV~

The morning sun filtered weakly through the sheer curtains, casting long slivers of light across my bed.

I blinked awake slowly, my body protesting every movement with dull aches.

Every bruise from the forest fight, every scrape from the escape, every emotional scar from the past twenty-four hours—they all pulsed just beneath my skin.

I sat up, rubbing my temples, feeling the weight of everything settle back onto my shoulders.

Xade’s kiss.

Dristan’s kiss.

I heaved a deep sigh as the memories came rushing back—his hands on my face, the desperate heat of Dristan’s mouth against mine, and then Xade’s grip on my wrist, his mouth crashing onto mine like he couldn’t help himself.

My chest squeezed painfully at the memory. I shook my head, forcing myself out of bed.

Focus, Valerie. Focus.

I was at PSA for a reason.

I had bigger problems than a few unexpected kisses... and feelings I had no idea how to deal with.

I went through my morning routine on autopilot, pulling on a fitted black turtleneck and dark leather trousers before quickly braiding my hair back.

I glanced at the mirror, loving my look. Something practical. Simple. Easy to move in. Easy to breathe in.

I slung my bag over one shoulder and headed out, my boots clicking softly against the floor of the dorm hallway.

By the time I reached the main building, the courtyard was already busy. Students moved in clusters, the usual morning chatter filling the air.

It almost felt normal—almost.

I made my way toward my locker, weaving through the crowd, nodding at a few familiar faces as I passed. My mind was already drifting toward Combat & Strategy class.

I needed to stay sharp. I needed to remain invisible. But the second I opened my locker, something slipped out.

A small, pristine white envelope landed softly at my feet.

I froze for a moment.

The noise around me dulled, like cotton had been stuffed into my ears. For a second, I just stared at it, heart thudding painfully in my chest.

Slowly, I bent down and picked it up.

No name on the front. No markings. Just... an envelope.

My fingers shook slightly as I tore it open. Inside was a single piece of paper. And on it, in sharp, deliberate handwriting:

"I know who you really are, Valerie Violet Sapphire Snow—Southern Alpha King’s Heir."

The world tilted around me, and my blood ran cold. I gripped the paper so tightly it crinkled under my fingers.

No. No. No.

Panic clawed at my chest, but I forced myself to stand up straighter. I scanned the hallway casually, like I was just another student looking for a friend.

But everyone around me looked normal—laughing, walking, chatting, checking their phones.

No one looked like they had just delivered a death sentence into my hands. I swallowed hard, slipping the note into the front pocket of my jeans.

Think, Valerie. Think.

Was it a prank? I wondered.

The first thought that jumped into my mind was Storm, my cousin. He was reckless at times, and he enjoyed teasing. Maybe he got wind of something and thought it would be funny to mess with me.

I pulled out my phone with shaking hands and fired off a quick text.

Storm: If this is you messing with me, I swear I’ll kick your ass. Did you leave a note in my locker???

"You’re fine," I chanted in my head as I walked towards class.

"You’re fine."

Today, we were using the arena for our clas,s especially since the simulation dome was affected. freeweɓnøvel~com
