226 A Hooker In Academy
Enya’s POV:
My brain couldn‘t process what happened to Oswin. Somebody attacked him in the woods and left him at the door of the academy. It was sad because Oswin would usually wander around the woods and the mountains to gather as many herbs as he could to make potions to help everyone in need.
Everybody was sent back to their rooms, except for the Alphas. I hadn‘t spoken to Christina yet, but she stuck around with me.
She was walking behind me and murmuring, “I know you don‘t want to talk to me.”
“Glad that you are aware of that,” I responded, with a bit of an attitude.
“But I didn‘t do it out of jealousy. I lost it for many reasons,” she further went on to excuse her behavior and try to make herself look good. It was easy for her to back down from her words. She had been like that since the beginning. One minute she is hating on me and the very next minute, she is besties with me.
“You know, I‘m not angry with you,” I let out a loud sigh and turned to watch her stare at me happily.
“Really?” A smile covered her lips as she felt relieved.
“Yeah! What can I expect from someone who is poisoning her own brother?” My comment stopped her in her tracks. As we watched each other‘s faces, she frowned at me for raising an issue that made no sense to her.
“Poison?” She played a fool as I had expected.
I could tell she was lying about having no idea what poison I was talking about.
I didn‘t stop to argue with her. Because my attention had landed in a faraway sight. There was someone crying at the end of the hallway. She seemed to be naked from her
stomach down.
My heart sank in my chest once it proved my doubts right.
“What the heck!” I exclaimed in shock. Ignoring Christina, I focused on the image in the view ahead.
It was Willow, holding her skirt to cover her private parts as she sobbed miserably.
“Oh My God! Who did this to her?” Christina was as shocked as I was. It was not every day we see something like that in that our academy‘s hallway.
The first thing I did was to take off my sweater and hand it over to her to wrap it around her bottom.
“Who did this to you?” I asked, scanning her to make sure she was okay. She was not.
“I will get her something to wear.” Christina rushed to knock on the door. Willow felt too embarrassed to speak to me. She covered her face with her hands and sobbed.
I watched Christina knock on the door and Zander respond from the other side. His words instantly got me into defense mode.
“Are you an animal? How could you do this to her?” Instead of waiting for Christina to say something, I jumped in between them. Zander rolled his eyes and let out a sigh of exhaustion.
“I will head back to the guestroom,” Willow obviously didn‘t want to mess with Zander. She kept her head low and tried to walk past us when I stopped her.
“Are you going to let them treat you like this?” I said, and she stopped in her steps.
