Ok
The night was too quiet… almost like it was waiting for something to happen.
Zinnia walked alone, her thoughts far away, unaware that she was stepping into a moment that would change her life forever.
Then—
A sound broke the silence.
A dull impact.
Then another.
She stopped walking.
Her heart tightened.
Slowly, she turned toward the direction of the sound.
An alley.
Dim light.
Shadows moving.
And then she saw him.
A tall figure stood under the weak streetlight, holding a bat. His movements were calm… controlled… like he had done this too many times to feel anything at all.
Zinnia couldn't see his face clearly.
But she saw enough.
Someone was on the ground.
And the man with the bat didn't stop.
Behind him stood other figures—silent, watching, unbothered.
Like this was normal.
Like fear didn't exist for them.
Zinnia's breath caught in her throat.
One of the boys shifted slightly.
And in that moment, she recognized them.
The Alpha Boys.
The most feared name whispered in elite circles.
But the one holding the bat…
He paused.
Slowly.
And turned his head slightly.
Not fully.
Just enough.
Even from the shadows, Zinnia felt it.
He knew someone was watching.
And just before everything went still—
His gaze locked in her direction.
Even though she was hidden…
It felt like he saw her completely.
🌙 END OF NIGHT
📖 🏫 THE NEXT DAY
The gates of Elite Alenjadro Academy towered above Zinnia like a warning.
She had been transferred there.
A place for the richest, most powerful families in Italy.
A place she didn't belong.
As she stepped inside, whispers followed her.
Eyes watched her.
And then—
Silence shifted.
Because standing ahead…
Were the same boys from the night before.
The Alpha Boys.
And at the center of them…
He stood.
Roman Cameo Alpha.
Cold.
Still.
Unbothered.
Like the night had never happened.
But Zinnia knew better.
Because now…
She had entered their world.
And there was no going back.
