A Beauty In An All-Male Alpha Academy

Chapter 36: A Locked Door.

Kaito sensed it from far away. The moment the scent hit him, his heart stopped for a second. It was familiar. Too

familiar. It was the sscent he had caught the day his new roommate arrived. That day, he had thought

maybe the smell cfrom the boy who moved in, but now he knew the truth. His mate had shown up that day.

He had felt her. And he had been too blind to realize it.

He clenched his teeth in anger. How could he have missed it? How could he have been so foolish? But now that

the scent was back, he wouldn't waste another second. He was going to find her, and he was going to mark her

before the others had a chance. He had no tto play fair.

It wasn’t because he was selfish. No, Kaito had just never learned how to share. And he wasn’t about to start

now—not even because of sold prophecy. He wanted her to be his. Only his.

He sired Alex quickly and told him to take care of the pack. Then he took off, following the trail of the scent. It

pulled at something deep in his soul. His mate was calling him. He could feel it. She wanted to see him too.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have released a scent so strong, so powerful that it reached him even across the woods.

Kaito ran with everything he had. His speed doubled, even tripled. It felt like the ground moved under his feet

just to help him reach her faster. But when he saw where the scent was leading him, he slowed down in shock.

His own dormitory.

Why there?

Why would his mate be in the boys’ dormitory on the night of the full moon? Could she be from the Luna Girls

school? Maybe she got lost. Maybe she was scared and wandered here by mistake. The thought of it made his

body burn hotter.

His fur, already made of flames, sparked brighter. Other wolves who saw him on the way moved aside, scared by

the fire. Kaito didn’t care. He had to see her. But he couldn’t go into the dormitory in his wolf form. The human

students would lose their minds.

Without wasting a second, he shifted. The giant wolf with flaming fur turned back into the Kaito everyone knew—

tall, handsome, with fire still dancing faintly on his skin. A few flames clung to his body, but he didn’t care. They

would fade in time.

Nothing mattered now except finding her.

His mate.

As Kaito walked toward the gate of West House, black, burned footprints followed behind him. His body still

carried the heat of his flames, but he didn’t care. The only thing on his mind was his mate. But the moment he

stepped inside the gate, he froze.

Right in front of him stood the last people he wanted to see tonight.

Hiro. Renn. And of course, his friend Taros.

All three of them were still in their wolf forms, but Kaito knew them instantly. They stared at one another with a

mix of shock and disbelief. It was clear none of them had expected this meeting. Within seconds, they shifted

into their human forms, ready to face one another, their bodies tense and their eyes sharp.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Hiro asked, his voice sharp, his brows drawn together in frustration.

Kaito looked at him, not believing what he was hearing. "Are you seriously askingthat?" he said, his tone

rising. "This is my dormitory. | live here. | am the leader of this house. Or have you forgotten that too?"

Hiro looked around, blinking in confusion. "Oh... this is West House?" he asked, glancing up at the building as if

he was seeing it for the first time. He stepped back a little and looked at the nwritten boldly above the

entrance. "It really is."

Kaito narrowed his eyes. Something felt off. Hiro had been in the Academy for more than four years. He knew

every corner of it like the back of his hand. How could he not know where West House was? And why now—on

the night of the full moon, when their senses were the sharpest? There was no way this was a mistake.

Still, he didn’t push it. Not yet. He turned his attention to the rest of them, his voice firm. "Tellwhy you're

here. Why are all of you in my territory at this tof the night?"

Renn crossed his arms and leaned back slightly, trying to look calm. "Are you not supposed to be with your pack

right now?" he asked, clearly trying to change the subject. He had no proper excuse to give, so turning it around

on Kaito was the easiest way out.

Kaito clenched his fists. "And what about you?" he snapped. His patience was wearing thin. Twas running

out. The moon would soon begin to fade, and with it, the connection to his mate. If they didn’t stop talking and

let him go, he might lose her again.

"As for me, | cto see you. | always caround," Taros said, lying through his teeth. He knew the truth

would change everything. If he told them their mate was here, they would all rush in, desperate to be the first to

mark her. He didn’t want to risk losing his chance. But he had just lied to his best friend. The guilt sat heavy in

his chest. He tried to ignore it. "The real question should be—what are Hiro and Renn doing here?"

"I got lost. I'm leaving now," Hiro replied as he turned toward the gate. He didn’t want to leave. His heart begged

him to stay, but the moon was already fading. Twas almost up, and his mate would soon disappear with the

night. "Bye."

"I'll leave too," Renn said quietly, following behind Hiro. Neither of them looked back as they left the west side of

the grounds.

That scent... it was back. It had faded just moments ago, but now, it drifted in the air again. Softer this time, but

real.

He followed it. Step by step, it led him to his room. He stood frozen at the door. His mate was inside? How? Did

she know about him already? Was she here for him? Did she want him to claim her?

What were they doing inside together?

Kaito knocked hard, his chest tight with worry. He waited. No sound cfrom inside. No footsteps. No voice.

Nothing.

Panic crept in.

What the fuck is going on?

He knocked again, louder this time, but still no response. Something didn’t feel right. If Angel didn’t open the

door now, he was going to break it.
