Vengeful Alpha

Storm

My eyes snapped up at the new principal the moment I heard his words. Brys froze next to me, and his breathing seemed to pick up.

It took all my will not to hold his hand, but I don't know what he might do should I do that. He's still weary about me. He only allowed me to place my hand on the small of his back earlier because he was frozen with fear.

My strawberry might kick me should I repeat my actions.

"Why do you need him to stay back?" I suspiciously peered at him, while Brys stood next to me without saying a word.

He raised a brow at me, "do I need to report everything to you? Well, there are books I need him to help me sort. Do you have any objection to that?" He asked in a challenging tone with his eyes narrowed at me.

I don't know why, but I felt like there was something more in that glare. It seemed like he was challenging me.

I glanced towards Brys, who hadn't said a word. "Do you wish to stay back?" I asked, hoping he will shake his head.
