A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy-Chapter 314: Had He Been Tracking Them?

When Marcus told her they were going somewhere, she never imagined he would bring her here, to Hiro’s place. Her heart skipped when she saw both Kaito and Renn’s car parked in front of the house. She didn’t understand how Marcus even knew they would be here. Had he been keeping track of them? If yes then it felt strange and a little scary.

"Are you surprised?" her father asked, glancing at her.

"Yeah," Angela nodded, still trying to believe it. She just hoped the boys weren’t doing anything crazy because they would not find it funny with Marcus. She also prayed they hadn’t done anything to Eliza, that she was alive and safe.

"That was my aim," Marcus chuckled as he took off her seat belt. "Let’s go meet your mates. Shall we?"

"Yes." She got out of the van and looked around. Angela pulled her black hair to the front, letting it fall over her shoulders as she walked toward the entrance door.

Everything here reminded her of the night they spent together, the night the circle was completed. Angela smiled at the memory. Everything had been perfect and then, without warning, things fell apart. Now she stood here, holding on to the hope that they would survive whatever storm was coming.

"Let me knock," Angela said, raising her hand. She could feel all her mates inside, but the one that shook her the most was Hiro. He was so sad and she felt it stronger than ever. It was weighing on her in a way she couldn’t ignore.

"You don’t need to knock. They already know you are here," Marcus said, stopping her. She looked at him, surprised by his words. "They have seen you so you don’t need to worry."

Before she could say anything, the door creaked open and Stales stood there with a small smile. "Hmmm...hey Angela."

"Stales...how are you?" she asked with a soft smile, crossing her arms as she tried to read his face. "Can I come in?"

"Why not? Who am I to stop you from coming into your house?" he said while widening the door for her.

"Thank you." Angela walked in slowly. Something felt strange about the way Stales talked and acted. His voice was not steady and his smile looked forced. It was like he was scared and under pressure. She could not point at anything clearly but she knew it could be because of one of her mates. Maybe they scared him...or maybe they were hiding something.

Her eyes went to Kaito who stood beside the wine section, leaning against the wall while Renn smoked beside him. Angela sighed as she wondered why none of the brothers tried to stop Renn from smoking. Then her eyes softened when Taros, who was sitting with Samuel, got up and pulled her into a warm hug. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"Babe..." he said, holding her tightly. His voice alone made her chest feel lighter. They didn’t look surprised to see Marcus which made her wonder if they already knew she was outside. Did they peep?

"How are you?" Angela asked as she stepped back from the hug, her fingers brushing away from his warm chest.

She tried to gather herself and remember the reason she came here. Taros’s cute face could make anyone forget why they walked into a room, but she refused to lose focus. Not now. Not with everything falling apart around them.

Angela looked around and asked with a tense voice, "Where is Hiro?" Her eyes met Kaito’s and she rolled her eyes without hiding her irritation. He looked surprised but he stayed where he was, refusing to move closer.

She did not want to think about him or the way he had been avoiding her since she woke up. He tried to act normal but something in him had changed and she felt it clearly.

"He is inside...I don’t think he is ready to receive guests," Kaito said, his eyes shifting to Marcus who was already seated with his legs crossed.

Angela rubbed the side of her neck, then turned to her father. "Can you stay here for a few minutes?"

"Yes, my dear. We came here because of you. Take whatever time you need."

Angela gave him a small smile and then turned to Kaito so he could lead her to Hiro. As they walked through the hallway, she reached out and held his arm, stopping him.

"What is going on?" she asked. Her voice was so low that he wondered why she didn’t use their communication link instead.

"Nothing," Kaito said with a shrug as he tried to walk again, but she held his arm tighter.

"If something is wrong and you are hiding it from me, I won’t forgive you this time," she warned with a deep frown, pointing her finger at him. The anger in her eyes made his heart skip.

Those words were heavy. Too heavy. He wished she didn’t mean them, wished she didn’t say them at all.

"Do you understand?" Angela asked again, her brows pulled together as she waited for his answer.

"You look sexy when you are annoyed," he whispered, holding her hand and pulling her closer to him. His hand slid down and grabbed her ass, and Angela felt her breath catch in her throat. Cold shivers ran down her spine as her upper body pressed against his. She closed her eyes as waves of heat spread through her, each one making it harder to think.

She wanted this. She wanted his touch, his warmth, the feel of him. Since she woke up, he hadn’t reached for her like this. All her mates had kissed her and touched her, had claimed her... but him? He stayed away. He kept his distance. And the way he hid things from her only made that distance sharper and heavier.

His fingers brushed her face so lightly that it felt like tiny sparks dancing over her skin. It made her ache for him even more. If her father wasn’t sitting in the living room, and if Hiro wasn’t in such a bad state, she would have taken off her clothes right here and begged him to take her the way he used to.

"We could do it, Amor," he murmured, his hand sliding to her waist. Then he pushed his hand under her dress, slipping between her thighs.

Angela gasped as the heat between them deepened. Her eyes fluttered shut when he brought his lips close to her neck. The soft, slow kiss he placed there made her moan, her body melting against his touch.
