The Hidden Princess At All-Boys Alpha Academy novel Chapter 808

“Oh please don’t, Ariel, not in that dress –“

I groan a bit as the pounding continues.

“Everything you bring there just gets so filthy,” she whispers, her anxiety increasing as she steps towards the door, “please, it’s so beautiful, and it will be such work to get clean –“

I sigh and nod to her, letting her know that I’ll stay. And with her in the room, Gabriel isn’t likely to attack me. At least, I hope. When Pippa pulls open the door, I let out a sigh of relief to see that Elias is with him too, which means I’m safe.

Elias – he has been my protector this past week. The only one who can truly keep Gabriel in check.

“Mate,” Gabriel snarls, waving his hand at me the moment he comes into his room, the blue magical manacles immediately encircling my wrists. “Don’t even think about going anywhere.”

I resist the urge to roll my eyes. “Of course, mate,” I say in reply, putting on my Princess Cupcake persona. “I have no desire to leave your esteemed company anyway.”

Gabriel just glares at me as Elias follows him into the room and shuts the door, because all four of us know it’s a lie. I go to the Land of Darkness whenever I can rather than spend time with him. Unfortunately, Gabriel has learned my trick and gotten quite fast at slapping these magic-canceling cuffs on me the moment he walks into a room so that I can’t use my Dark magic as well as my Goddess gifts.

Fortunately for me, he has to be in the room to make his magic work. So the moment he’s gone, I usually shift away to go hang out in my little encaged nest of blankets and pillows in the Land of Darkness until he comes and shouts at me to come back to Atalaxia.

“Oh Elias,” Pippa murmurs, going immediately to her Alpha and wrapping her hands around his arm, looking up into his eyes. “It’s all gone wrong –“

“What’s gone wrong?” He asks, frowning down into her face as Gabriel storms over to me.

“Ariel must begin her confinement – there’s no way we’ll be able to do a wedding tomorrow –“
