Chapter 8

Chapter 8 Dylan POV.

I took a small step backwards causing a small growl to come from the kings chest. I took another step back and he stopped in his tracks staring at my form. His eyes raked up and down my body landing on my bare arms, he frowned at my uniform then turned to our principal to say something. I didn’t hear what he said but I used his distraction as an opportunity to run.

I quickly turned on my heels and began sprinting down the hall, Another loud growl shot through the school, so much so that you could almost feel the lockers shaking. The only thing coursing through me was fear. I ran straight to the window, and quickly began fumbling with the lock, I opened the window and went to jump out, unsure about where I would go, or even if I would survive the fall, however my foot was caught by two of the kings men, my front slammed onto the floor and my hands slapped the wooden tiles as I went down, letting an audible Ooof leave me, and they dragged me by my ankles back to the hall full of students and threw me at the kings feet.

“Perhaps we could discuss this in my office, your gra…” I shook my head at the principal before standing up, darting my sight round trying to find an escape route.

“I’m not discussing anything, let me go! A loud grow! sounded out again as I wiggled and yelled in the second man’s grip as he grabbed my upper arms firmly.

I’m not going to lie, this situation is far from ideal. I stepped on the second man’s foot instinctively hard and felt his grip leave me a small grunt left his mouth just as the third wolf tackled me to the ground and pinned me there.

“Get the f**k off me!” I felt myself being lifted and hurled over a very hard shoulder while I kicked and shouted.

someone please explain what is happening. Miss Riley is a student in my school and… the principal was cut off with a growl from the wolf man holding me hostage.

“Matters of the royal court do not concem any of you.” The king snapped while walking towards the man who’s shoulder I was over, as I continued to shout obscenities.

“They do when it involves one of my students.” I’m impressed, I mean everyone knows the principal hated me, and yet here he was, standing up to the wolf king for me. Thanks sit.

“She is no longer your student.” Those simple words the king had spoke had me freeze my entire body, my breath hitched. No longer his student?!

“What?!” I used as much strength as I could and pushed off the wolfs shoulder, my body suddenly crashed to the floor a thud causing a jolt of pain to shoot through me. “Shit.”

“Im sorry Your grace, she just… The wolf that was holding me was cut off as a loud crack sounded through the hall, he fell next to me, the king had just hit his own man. My head shot round to everyone who was looking at me like I was about to be taken to the gallows, while all I could do was stay seated on the floor.

“What do you mean, no longer a student? You can’t take me out of school! You don’t have the authority.” I don’t know terrified, or mad. Maybe a bit of both, but I do know I’d rather die than have a mate. Especially one that’s the king of all species “Considering we are members of the royal court, I would say we do have the authority.” The second wolf spoke. “Now I suggest that we go to the office and discuss this rationally and privately, or do you plan on diving out of the window again?” The man continued while walking over to me as I sat there frozen, this can not be happening.

“What would you do if I said the window…” it’s funny seeing a royal wolf, the beta no less, trying to stifle a smile as I stared at him, I was being genuinely serious although I don’t think he knew that because humor lay in his eyes.

“I would say nice try miss Riley, now are you going to make me drag you?” I was about to answer when another grow! sounded through school, the alpha king came storming closer to me, causing me to tense up while still being seated on the floor.

A frown made its way onto his face as he walked over to me. I shuffled on my **, but didn’t get far as the third wolf stood directly behind me, The second my back hit the legs of him my heart stopped, every single person in the hall was watching as the king walked right up to me and crouched down in front, his eyes studied my face as he spoke. “Why did you run, mate?!” Again gasps and murmurs traveled through the room as people began talking about how I’m done for.
