Dominic POV

Karina’s words hadn’t even finished echoing down the hallway before something hot and violent snapped in my chest.

Expelled.

She said it like it was a favor, like I should be thanking her, and she had just solved some minor inconvenience in my schedule.

I turned toward her fully.

She flinched.

“You wanna explain,” I said, my voice low enough that even the fluorescent lights seemed to buzz quieter. ” What the hell you’re talking about?”

Karina’s smile wobbled, but she straightened her shoulders, trying to regain her earlier confidence. “I— I thought you’d be relieved. You’ve seemed… stressed since she enrolled. I thought if we got rid of her, not just from the Healer academy but from the whole school in general you’d be…happy again. Like you used to be.”

My jaw tightened. “Karina. What did you do?”

She blinked up at me with wide, eager eyes, like she expected praise. “I made the midterm, like, impossible. Extra sections, off-syllabus content not from her year just hard enough so she would fail, and since she is on academic watch, she’ll be expelled. Problem solved, right?”

The world tunneled.

“Acedmic watch?” My eyes narrowed. “For?”

Her lips pulled between her teeth, eyeing me up and down. “Involved in obscene actions on campus… reported anonymously.”

Me. It was the night she spent with me in the men’s dorms. Someone saw her leaving.

My hand raked through my hair.

Shit. Shit.

I’d assumed-stupidly-that failure of this stupid test just meant Ellie transferring back to Pack Management. A reset.

Not this.

Not expulsion from the entire school.

My stomach dropped, slowly locking back on her. “You-did what?”

Karina’s brows knit, confused by my reaction. “Dominic… you said she wasn’t meant for the Healer Academy, everyone knows it. You told her to quit!”
