BEAST ACADEMY

Seventh Chapter

Alexander's POV

I wanted her so bad from the day I met her, and four hours ago she was half-naked on me. I knew she was drunk and she will not remember anything she said and did.

It is six in the morning and I am here lying near her on the bed where she passed out. I couldn't sleep this night, you are asking me what I did? Well, I was just watching her peacefully sleeping on my chest. And yes, she is still half-naked.

I need to get out of here before she will wake up because I just can't see her not remembering her own words, and seeing her shocked...no...I just can't. I wish she did it on the light head but she didn't. And that's why I should just turn my arrogance and selfishness as always.

I removed her from me and quietly slipped off the room. While walking through the empty hallway, I kinda felt sad and...broken. I rubbed my face with both of my hands and headed to the one and only pal and adopted brother aka Zach. I need to talk to him, even though he wanted Eveline first, it doesn't matter because our bond is stronger.

I opened Zach's room door and entered like in my room. He wasn't there...probably running in the forest in a wolf form, he loves to do it in the early mornings. So I headed to the forest searching for him.

Zachary's POV

Wind blowing against my thick, grey fur, grass under my black paws, it's the feeling of freedom.

I stopped near the tree where I left my clothes and smelled a familiar scent, black oud oh...and strawberries?

"How did the night go?" I asked not turning around.

"Terrible," he answered.

"Really? I can smell her all over you." I answered calmly but angrily.

"I can explain" he answered in a cold tone. And then I turned around to face him.

"Don't, I know I asked you to replace me, but I didn't tell you to sleep with her!" I said bitterly.

"Come on Zach! You didn't let me explain myself and already judged me!" Alex growled at me turning on his dragon self. I couldn't say anything because he is a king, and when the royal growl no one can stand against him. I stand there looking straight into his eyes and then he continued.

"She got drunk and acted not like herself. You know she doesn't like me, Zach! It was all alcohol! And we did nothing, alright? She fell asleep on me. But I promise we didn't have this..." he said looking at me with pleading eyes.

"Okay...I believe you." I chuckled, he finally exhaled and run his hand through his auburn hair.

"Thank you, pal" he tapped my shoulder. I smiled at him and sharply felt his sadness.

"Argh...Alex?" I felt a sharp pain through my body. I looked at him confused.

He inhaled deeply and whispered, "I think, I am starting to fall in love with...Eveline."

Probably you are thinking about how I felt his pain, this is one of the wolves' senses, we feel someone's pain by touching them.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Zach, you know me like nobody else, you know that I never wanted to love someone like...you know." his eyes were red like he wanted to cry.

"Yeah...I do know." honestly, yeah, I know him since I was born, his parents adopted me when I was a boy. Alexander was the type of guy who just sleeps with girls and does not even care about their names or personality. Well, he wasn't like this every time...he loved, he was really in love, he was the happiest man on earth and she loved him like nobody else, but there can't be a happy end in every story.

"Zach...I don't want to feel this...I just can't" he sobbed falling on his knees and his head was tilted down.

I sat on the ground and hugged him as much as I could. "You will not feel it again, Alex, you will not, I promise you" he was whimpering and crying like a baby. I am older than Alexander in one year and I always needed to take care of him.

"Shh...it will get better..." I soothed him while he was whimpering.

"I can't sleep, Zach...Eveline reminds me of her...I look at her and see her...It drives me crazy Zach..." he let out a loud cry.

Wait...he said Eveline reminds of her? That's why lately he was happy. "Alex, are you taking medicine?"

"No..." he answered.

Oh s**t, that's why he sees Mirena in Eveline. He used to take medicine from healthy herbs that prevented him from seeing Mirena...I thought so.

"Alex, you are sick, come on..." I took him by the arm and we went to his room.

Eveline's POV

"Argh...what the f**k? Ouuch my head! Damn it!" I felt so sore and disgusting, last time I felt like this was on my birthday when we drank all night. Same situation. Wait...Why I am naked??? WTF!! What?? no no no no! I took my phone to see what time is it, it is 14:00 oh god, I am happy that today we have shifting training but I have left only 30 minutes! where is Tylenol??

I already did my staff in the bathroom, and now I should wear training clothes. I found purple leggings and a black sports bra. Perfect. I did my hair into a ponytail and run to the hallway. I saw Theo who was leaning against the wall.

"Hey, Theodor!" I greeted him.

"Oh hey, Eve, oh and please stop calling me Theodor" we both laughed and he hugged me by the shoulder.

"By the way, where is Maeve?" I asked removing his hand.

"Try to guess, princess," he asked cockily.

"Um...I have no idea" I furrowed my eyebrows.

He looked behind my back and I followed his look, at the end of the hallway were coming to Maeve and Eric. Damn it.

"Wait, now she is hanging out with him?" I asked furiously.

"Aha, she replaced me with this douche" he nodded in Eric's direction.

"Ouch, that probably hurts," I said

"Nah, it's kinda relieving, she always was with me, I hadn't my own space, ya know"

We both laughed. Theo was younger than me, I never had a brother and here we are, acting like a brother and sister.

Maeve and Eric came to me us and I narrowed my eyes at Eric. "Someone's stood up from the wrong side of the bed, right Eveline?" Eric asked me while smirking.

"F**k off Eric, hey Maeve, do you remember something from yesterday, I know we drank and everything went bluntly from there" I asked her making an awkward face. "uhuh" she giggled like a child stroking Eric's chest. Oh god, what a hell is happening? "Umm...?" I made a questionable face and she wanted to answer me but Eric cut her off, "you and Maeve were drunk like on New Year's Eve, so me and 'his highness', took care of you two." He said casually, and I saw Maeve changed dramatically, she lowered her eyes and we saw she was sad about Eric's words.

"Maeve?" I called her, and she momentarily changed her expression with a smile. "Yeah, it is true, you went with Alexander to your room while um..." Eric cut her off and continued, "While I took her to her room." he said.

"Wait...Alexander?!" I angrily shouted.

"um...yes," she said.

I no longer stood there, I rushed to the main hall to ask guards where is Alexander King's room, I knew they wouldn't answer me so I just said I need to give him homework from Mr. Lorenzo, they believed this lie and soon I was standing near big wooden doors.

I knocked to the door hoping he was there. I waited about three minutes before he opened the door. But it wasn't him, it was Zachary.

"Hey, Eveline" he greeted me normally.

"Um...Is this is your room?" I asked glaring at him.

"Actually, no, it is Alex's" phew, I thought I came to him, that would've been awkward as hell.

"Is Alexander there?" I asked trying to enter but he didn't give me entrance.

"Eve, I am sorry for not accompany you, I forgot that I already promised to accompany Riley." he made an apologizing look but I didn't stop glaring at him.

"I don't care to whom you promised, just get out of my way," I said, calmly but threatening.

He shook his head and began to stand like this, not even moving for an inch. Who the hell he thinks he is?!

"Get.The.Hell.Away." I said angrily, and again my eyes turned purple.

"Eve..."

"I warned you." and then in a second I jumped on top of him like a cat. He couldn't hold his balance so he fell on his back with loud *BOOM* I stood up from him and began searching for Alexander not even care about injured Zachary. The room was big so after two minutes I saw Alexander on the bed, lying anxious and sick.

"Ah!" I closed my mouth to prevent screaming and then fell on my knees. He was looking very sick, his eyes were closed, his skin was pale like he was dying as well as his lips, and he was so unhealthy slim, even though I saw him yesterday, he was very healthy! What happened to him? I couldn't look at him, so I closed my eyes and began crying not even noticing it.

Hey guys! I hope you enjoyed reading it! Take care! xoxo.
