Ian:
However, my mind refused to focus on the north, the academy or the mysteries.
It kept returning to Clentine.
Once we arrived, we were taken straight to our rooms because of the weather.
Everyone had taken a shower, and afterward they decided to go to the green squad room to work out.
Oriana was sowhere in the hall, trying to get food with a lurker beside her to ensure she did not speak to any red squad mbers.
That was another problem. I could not go speak to Clentine, and I blad myself for it.
Whenever we had ti, sothing happened and we lost the chance.
After the bathroom emptied, I stepped inside and turned on the water.
I rested my forehead against the tile as the warm water fell down my back while I thought about Clentine.
Before long, the door slamd open and soone pushed a body inside with , straight into the shower.
Her fingers wrapped around my stomach. I quickly removed her hands and turned around to look.
It was Oriana. Her hair fell over her shoulders as the water soaked her clothes.
I reached for a towel and wrapped it around my waist before grabbing her arms and pinning her against the wall angrily, trying to figure out what she was planning and who had pushed her inside.
The mont I focused my eyes on her, trying to show how angry she had made , I saw her panic.
"Who pushed you in? What do you think you were doing?" I yelled at her over the sound of the water, shaking her miserably.
I had been so angry with her because of all the trouble she kept causing that I decided I had to show her my anger, show her what I was capable of so she would stay away from .
But the truth was, I wanted to kill her.
"I just thought you needed a hug," she uttered weakly, and my fingers tightened against her skin.
I could tell she was in pain, but then the door opened, and everything happened too fast.
Before I could turn around, she pushed herself against and kissed on the lips.
I shoved her back, but it was too late. Soone had already seen it.
"Oh, so sorry, Clentine. Did you need anything?" Oriana began to say, and my body froze when I saw Clentine standing in the doorway.
"We were not doing anything," Oriana added.
I wanted to slam her head against the tiles, but my focus stayed on Clentine, her eyes filled with tears.
"So that is how you want to punish now?" Clentine hissed.
She turned and began to walk away quickly.
I had a feeling she might have listened to before, but because I had acted like this with her, she was reacting the sa way.
It felt like I was tasting my own dicine for never letting her speak and always walking away.
"Clentine!" I ran toward her, but I could not go past the doorway because I was still only wrapped in a towel.
I stopped and turned toward Oriana as she rushed out.
I grabbed her before she could escape and pushed her back inside the bathroom, making her fall under the shower.
"You wanted to take a shower? Then stay in there," I shouted as I slamd the door shut.
I heard her knocking and begging to open it, but I stepped back into the room.
That was when my eyes landed on soone sitting on his bed with a smirk on his face.
"The ga has only begun," Haiden remarked.
"Clentine is going to reject you soon. You are giving her too much to deal with," he comnted, making it clear this was his plan.
"Do you know how much this will hurt her?" I hissed at him.
"Oh no. It is just a little pain before she rejects you and finds her happiness," Haiden said, pointing at his chest.
"Haiden, you are making a huge mistake coming between us," I warned him.
Instead of taking seriously, he chuckled.
"I am also an alpha, Ian," Haiden replied. "I am not scared of your threats."
His confidence only made the storm inside worse.
"You must have taken advantage of our state in the past. But now we are back. We are in our senses, and we are eager have our mate back," Haiden explained as he rose from the bed, stepped toward the bathroom door, and opened it.
"Co out," he told Oriana in a threatening tone.
I realized what he was doing.
After what Oriana had done to ruin their chances, or what he believed she had done, he planned to use her to turn Clentine against .
"Do you really think those little hiccups would separate from Clentine?" I asked Haiden, staring into his eyes.
"Oh no, not really. This is just the beginning. It is only a small crack. When the big earthquake hits, your relationship will fall apart," Haiden remarked with a smirk on his lips. "Besides, it is unfortunate that you turned out to be the headmaster’s son. I an, have you not kept too many secrets from Clentine all this ti while she was trying to find answers? You had them. You let her chase after them and risk her life."
As soon as Haiden said that, my muscles tightened.
"That is not what I did," I hissed, but he clicked his tongue.
"Well, I will convince her otherwise," he replied, gesturing for Oriana to step out from between us.
As she started to leave, I caught her arm and pulled her back, making sure our bodies did not touch.
"If you play any more gas with them, they will be the last ones to kill you before I cut you limb to limb," I warned her before looking at Haiden.
If he were wiser, he would already sense the threat.
Oriana looked between the two of us and then added, "I am not even sure what I am doing. I am just trying to survive. Tell them not to force , and I will not co between you and Clentine," she murmured softly, appearing guilty for what she had already done, but it did not matter.
My anger had no limits. She was going to be crushed under my ego and anger as well for coming between and Clentine.
