Will Alpha Joric and Alpha Xavier switch places?
Aliyah"Thank you, Alpha Xavier," Alpha Joric said with a smile as they shook hands. The woman had won, and now the two alphas exchanged the category they were holding."You're welcome, Alpha Joric." Xavier looked serious, but when his gaze landed on me after Janice's father left, he immediately smirked."Okay, just because you requested me to be here doesn't mean everything will be easy for you.""Oh, come on, Alpha. We just wanted to see you up close." I rolled my eyes at the flirtatious tone of the woman who spoke. Xavier noticed it, and he smiled while looking at me."Alright, all odd numbers, group together. The same goes for the even numbers." His voice was firm, and everyone got serious as they quickly moved to the places Xavier pointed out."Now, number 1 will fight against number 2. Number 3 will fight against number 4, and so on. I assume you all got that?" There was no issue with the pairings since the boys and girls were separated."Yes, Alpha!" everyone shouted in unison.
"Next round, Jessica and Aliyah!" one of the professors shouted. Did my friend lose?I was shocked, so I looked around in search of Janice. I found her sitting beside Chloe, and both were smiling at me, even giving me a thumbs-up. I glanced at the girl who had defeated her and noticed she was also looking at me, giving me a chill."Remember, the first to land two hits wins," our PE teacher reminded us with a smile. Our teachers were really kind and supportive of all students. I guess this is what happens when the people in charge have principles, treat everyone fairly, and, most importantly, follow the rules.I nodded, and so did Jessica, the one who defeated Janice."Go, Aliyah!" My two friends cheered, making me shake my head.Just like before, we started in our fighting stances and waited for Sir's whistle.Compared to my previous opponent, this one looked more determined to win. The way she stared at me, it was like she wanted to kill me. I couldn't help but feel nervous. There wa
Aliyah“Are you okay?” Xavier asked again once we were in the clinic.“Excuse me, Alpha.” He had no choice but to step aside to let the nurse pass.“Does it hurt, Aliyah?” the nurse asked, but I just shook my head.“Are you sure?” Xavier asked again.“Yes, Alpha. The punch didn’t hit me.” And it was true.“Aliyah!” Janice called out worriedly as she rushed into the clinic with her father and Chloe.“Are you okay, A-Aliyah?” Alpha Joric asked, his voice full of concern.“I’m fine, Uncle Joric.”“This is the first time I’ve seen you like this. Are you sick or something?” he asked.“This usually happens when I study too much. But I suddenly felt dizzy and had a headache earlier when it happened,” I admitted. I needed to be honest, at least a little.It’s not even exam week, so it’s unlikely that I overworked myself studying. That excuse wouldn’t work right now.“Maybe we should call Dr. Martin.” The nurse, who had just finished taking my blood pressure and temperature, looked at me with
"How are you feeling now?" Sir Jake asked. The bleeding from my nose had stopped, and Dr. Martin had already assured me that there was nothing to worry about since everything was normal."I'm okay now, Sir." I glanced slightly at Xavier, who was still staring at me."I think you need to tell your parents about what happened so they can have you checked again by a doctor if needed. I don't want them thinking that the school neglects its students, especially humans.""I will let my parents know, Sir.""Thank you," Sir Jake replied before turning to Xavier."You can tell Jessica that she has nothing to worry about since Aliyah is fine. I'm sure she'll be able to relax now.""Yes, Sir," Xavier replied, glancing at me once more before finally leaving the clinic.I didn't want him to go yet. I still wanted to be with him, even though I felt slightly nervous. But at the same time, I didn't want Sir Jake to notice that there was something going on between me and Xavier. Even though, right now
AliyahThe king and queen of the supernatural world, Matteo and Freya Harith, are known as the most powerful beings in our realm. Their reign saw them through two wars led by their uncle and aunt, both of which they won successfully. They had twins named Leo and Luna, whom they loved dearly and who were destined to inherit their kingdom.However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the king and queen needed to protect their twins. To do so, they changed their names when they began school. Leo became Allistaire, a strong Lycan Prince. In contrast, Luna became Aliyah, an omega who could move objects without touching them and read minds. But these abilities were not easy for her to control. Often, her nose would bleed when she used them. She had no one to guide her, fearing her parents might find out.Aliyah kept her abilities to herself out of fear that the kingdom would see her as evil and compare her to her witch aunt, who waged war a year after her parents’ reign. How do I know this? Be
AliyahGlendale University.It’s Monday morning, and I’m currently walking around the university. I usually do this, especially since the place is new to me. I guess it's also part of my cautious nature, which started when I was a child.I walked with many other students and noticed that most of them seemed to know each other and were happy to see their friends. I wish I could say the same, but my friend chose to study at another school because her crush is there."Yay!" I flinched when I heard a familiar voice from behind, so I quickly turned around. My eyes widened when I realized I had heard correctly because I saw my best friend running toward me, even though I thought she was at a different school."You witch! What are you doing here?" I asked as she finally reached me, and I’m sure disbelief was still all over my face."I can’t let you have all the fun by yourself!" Janice said, laughing, which made me laugh, too. I consider her my best friend because she treats me like I'm not
AliyahThree days have passed since that incident, and I haven’t seen Xavier or Adrian again. Maybe it was just a coincidence that they were there, which I’m thankful for because if they hadn’t been, the palace would probably be mourning because of me.“Okay, class, listen.” I suddenly looked at our P.E. professor, glancing around the class before she continued. “In a week, we’ll have a small competition. Since physical strength will be needed, it will be divided into two categories: one for the supernatural and one for the humans.”The students began whispering. Some were nervous, while others were excited. “Even though the categories are separate, you will still fight, and there’s a chance someone might get hurt. We need to ensure, especially for humans, that we can fight. So that, no matter what happens, you can protect yourselves.”“Like a fighting tournament?” asked one of my male classmates, who I was sure was a wolf.“Yes, but even though it’s a fighting tournament and there’s
AliyahIt was early Saturday morning, and I was heading to the university parking lot. I commuted as usual. Dad insisted I should have a car and a driver. Still, I refused because I wanted to keep my identity secret, so I stayed low profile.“I thought you wouldn’t show up,” Janice greeted me as soon as she saw me, causing me to frown. “I know you’re not fond of these pack visits, and I was worried Aunt Avery wouldn’t allow you to come.”“She allowed me because I told her I’d be with you,” I replied, seeing a wide smile across her face. She was about to say more when a black SUV suddenly stopped beside us. The passenger door opened, and Chloe stepped out with a smile.“Hi, girls! Sorry, I’m a bit late. Adrian took forever.” We looked toward the driver’s seat, where her brother Adrian also got out, staring intensely at Janice, and my friend stared back at him.“Hey! What’s going on with you?” I asked, surprising her.“Huh? Nothing, I just– I don’t know.”“Adrian, stop scaring Janice. S

AliyahI went back to the ground, and before taking my place next to Janice again, I glanced at Xavier, who was also looking straight at me. My heart beat faster, thinking he had always been eyeing me.I quickly looked away; who knows what he might think. Better not risk it."What did he say?" my friend asked."It's all good. I told him I'm not sick, just that my mom is overprotective and worries too much about what might happen to me."I knew she understood what I meant. I couldn't say it outright because others around us are wolves with sharp hearing and might listen in.I had to be careful. Avoiding any mention of my family was my way of doing that."Remember, whoever gets the first two hits wins," Janice's dad reminded us."Yes, Alpha!" We all responded in unison before Sir Fritz, our Math teacher and today's emcee, took the microphone."You can now proceed to the designated area for your category. As you've seen, the ground has been divided, and you'll find two boxes where you'll
AliyahWhat is he doing here? I didn't know alphas were invited."Why didn't you tell me your dad is here?" I immediately asked Janice, not taking my eyes off Xavier and Alpha Joric in front."I didn't know either." That witch just shrugged before suddenly remembering something. "If Alpha Xavier is here, does that mean his beta is here too?""Why do you sound excited?" I asked, puzzled by the smile on her face, which quickly disappeared."What are you talking about? I was just asking. And what's wrong with being excited? Aren't you excited for the tournament?""I am excited about the tournament, but you seem excited about something else. You're being too defensive."She rolled her eyes at me and looked ahead, so I did the same."But why didn't Chloe tell us her alpha would be here too?" Janice whispered, leaning slightly closer."Maybe she really had no idea. Didn't she say earlier that her brother wanted to come in here, but she didn't allow him?""Maybe it's a surprise."There was n
AliyahLike Xavier said, he and Adrian gave us a ride. The two were in the front seats while Janice and I sat in the back.We dropped off my friend at her dorm first since it was on the way. I didn’t want them to take me to my apartment, so I just asked to be dropped off near the bookstore."Why not at your place?" Xavier asked when I told them I was getting off."Uh- ah- well, I need to buy something. And don’t you guys still have somewhere to go?" I hoped he wouldn’t notice that I didn’t want them to take me home. I was worried they might run into Aunt Avery, and I knew she would start asking questions."Are you sure, Aliyah? It’s really not a problem for me and Alpha. Plus, I promised my sister I’d make sure you both got home safely," Adrian said."It’s okay, Adrian. I mean, Beta Adrian. Besides, I do need to buy something.""Let her, Adrian," Xavier said, making me glance at him. He’s probably acting like this because he just saw Stelle."Alright," Adrian replied as he slowly pull
AliyahHe said I wasn't just any woman for him, yet there he was, holding another girl. I raised an eyebrow at him as if daring him to tell me I was wrong."I will make sure to use everything I learned in our training for this friendly tournament at the university. Thank you, Alpha Xavier. I'll go to my room now to get ready for home."It seemed like he wanted to stop me, but before he could, Stelle suddenly burst into loud sobs."I don't understand why Dad is like this, Alpha." I make a face when she deliberately squeezes herself into Xavier's chest. I'm so pissed, but I can't let them notice it."Stelle, calm down. I can't understand what you're saying if you're crying like that," Xavier said as he gently pushed her away, keeping a respectful distance by holding her shoulders at arm's length.I turned around and nodded slightly at Adrian, who was smiling as I passed him and headed straight to my room to change.Honestly, I was irritated with Stelle because I knew she was fake. She's
Xavier What did she say? She liked Pete? I couldn’t help but feel my blood boil after hearing that. We just had an intimate moment upstairs, and then she said that? That she likes my gamma? Even though jealousy was eating me alive at that moment, my mind remained clear. I knew Riza would be a better match for her, which is why I called her to spar with Aliyah. My mate didn’t disappoint me. Yes, Aliyah is my mate, but I don’t plan on letting her know that just yet. There are things I need to handle before I tell her everything. It’s also my way of keeping her safe, especially now that rogues have been crossing into my territory more frequently. “Son, why do I get the feeling Aliyah isn’t just a guest?” Dad asked. I came to the alpha’s office after leaving the trainees behind. I had to go because I didn’t want anyone to suspect I was keeping an eye on or paying extra attention to anyone. “You’re overthinking, Dad.” Was that why he was here instead of being upstairs with Mom, who he
