The True Alpha of Lupine (Seraphina and Ronan) novel Chapter 16

Chapter 16 Number One And Number Two

“So this all happened because of those two assholes.”

Finn blinked at my bluntness, but I couldn’t care less.

Thanks to them, I had one uniform left.

The bell rang

“It’s no use holding onto it anymore, Finn murmured, gently taking the ruined uniform from my hand. “Let’s go get breakfast and deal with this later.”

I drew in a deep breath and gave a small nod, falling into step beside him as we headed for the cafeteria talking-

“Man,” Finn chuckled, trying to lighten the mood, “you only had two uniforms?”

I gave a tight nod. If only he knew that uniform wasn’t even mine to begin with. I’d altered it to fit, patching it more times than I could count.

As we were close to the cafeteria Finn spoke again.

“I have an idea”

My hand froze mid–air. “What is it?”

“Contact your pack or family. They can send you a replacement uniform. he casually suggested.

My muscles tensed at the dangerous thought.

Contact them?

I had no idea what chaos had unfolded when I disappeared from my pack. My father… he’d be furious enough to slaughter wolves. And my uncle’s pack? They didn’t even know 1 was here, hiding in plain sight under Seth’s name. Reaching out to either of them wasn’t an option.

As we entered, the atmosphere shifted. All eyes turned to me. Meaningful glances passed between wolves as they whispered, every one of them undoubtedly connected to the incident with my uniform.

“Hey, Tiny,” one of them sneered, stalking toward me: “Got something you wanna say?”

“Yeah, another growled, “because your damn stare is getting on my nerves.”

Soon, four of them had circled around me, tension crackled in the air like a live wire.

Finn shifted behind me, tense. “Seth.” he whispered warily.

I ignored them, my gaze fixed past the wolves, locking onto a figure who had just entered through the other cafeteria door, Ronan. Beside him was Alpha Asher, the only one Ronan ever seemed to keep close.

Ronan’s eyes landed on me almost instantly.

Then, from another door, Dante appeared, his attention snapping toward thie scene. Whispers spread like wildfire across the

“What the hell are you staring at, you attention–seeking mut?” one of the Alphas snarled, grabbing my collar and yanking me

Both Ronan and Dante moved simultaneously, but before they could even take two steps, I raised my voice.

Alpha Gideon!”

The Alpha instructor strode into the cafeteria, his sharp gaze locking onto the wolf gripping my collar.

“What the hell is going on here?” Alpha Gideon demanded, his voice like a whip crack. The very air seemed to shrink with his

The Alpha holding me dropped his hand immediately and lowered his head. “N–nothing. Alpha. Seth and L. we were just messing around,” he stammered, forcing a casual laugh and throwing an arm around my shoulders- though his eyes promised retribution if I dared speak.

Bad move

“Messing around by grabbing my collar and calling me names?” I smiled coldly, jerking his hand off me. “I don’t even know your name,” I added, meeting his fearful eyes, Alpha Bully.”

Alpha Gideon’s growl rumbled through the room. “My office. Now. Alpha Abraham. Let’s see how your father enjoys reading your expulsion letter–written in beautiful, bold letters.”

Five seconds later, Abraham grabbed my collar again. Harder this time. The sound of stitches tearing reached my ears.
