Chapter 0274


    Before we get any further in the conversation, there’s a knock at the door. I just shout for them to


    come in and Xander, Oscar and Mina all look at me like I have lost my mind.


    “What? No one gets on this floor, I know food ising for us. We should take bets as to who is


    delivering. I think it’s Barty and he has probably been with our food for the whole preparation and


    delivery.” I roll my eyes as I get up and head to the door, because whoever is on the other side must


    think along the same lines as the rest of my friends since no one came in.


    I don’t wait for a response as I slowly open the door. “Oh, Barty, what a surprise to see you


    delivering our food!” I say loud and mockingly, giving him a wink so he knows the sarcasm is not


    directed at him in any way, he just got caught in the crossfire.


    “Hey, settle down. At this point we only know there is a threat, and it’s close. No one has a clue who


    or why right now so everyone is a suspect.” Mina chides me with a smile. I stick my tongue out at


    her in response.


    “So what do we know?” I ask as Barty closes the door and wheels the tray over to the sitting area.


    “This attack doesn’t seem like a surprise to you or your dad Xander, but the rest of the Alphas had


    their panties in a wad. You dad also mentioned hypotheticals when you guys were at Blue Crescent.


    This isn’t the first attack is it?”


    I don’t even hide my curiosity and Mina jumps on the question wagon with me. We talk into the night


    and don’t even notice how much time has passed until Osistones into my room unannounced


    telling the guys to head to Xnader’s room and Mina and I to stay in mine. It doesn’t escape my


    notice that we are being kept in pairs.


    “It’s one in the morning, you all need your sleep after the events of today. Mina, you will be traveling


    with Skr to the Warrior camp, rooming and sharing a schedule since you are both still attending


    school. We will leave right after breakfast, 8am sharp, do not bete, any of you. Mina, things are


    being packed for you and your training gear will be provided. None of you are to travel alone,


    anywhere, including the bathroom, showers, everything. We don’t know the nature of the attack or


    the reason behind it. All of you are important people so any of you could have been the target.”


    “So are we under guard then?” Mina asks.


    “In a manner of speaking, yes. We aren’t advertising what is going on, but you all are to keep track


    of each other. For obvious reasons we are keeping Xander and Oscar together, which leaves the


    two of you, but that works in our favor in several ways.”


    “Wait! What’s obvious about Xander and Oscar?” Mina cuts him off and I flinch a little at the look


    that crosses his face from the interruption.


    “We’re mates, Mina.” Xander says confidently and her eyes go wide.


    “How does that work exactly? Being the prince and heir and needing to continue your family line


    and all that.”


    “We haven’t found our female mate yet. We know we have one, but that’s all we know.” Oscar steps


    closer to Xander andces their fingers together. The show of support is sweet and I get the feeling


    they will get that question a lot if people find out about them before they understand Xander has two


    mates and they are not looking forward to it.


    Mina doesn’t even question it past that though. She just takes in the info, nods and moves on with


    her questioning. “So how does this work in our favor then?” She points between the two of us.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    “Before you interrupted, I was about to exin.” Osiston deadpans and then moves on like it never


    happened. “Skr has had a lot of attention surrounding her arrival here. We don’t discuss it, really


    it’s no one’s business and I will not be questioned any more, but your presence will help since it will


    be, on the surface, identical to her arrival. You have ate start and need to finish school while you


    are training. You will transfer to all of Skr’s sses, she will get you caught up on everything.” He


    holds his hand up. “Before you interrupt, she is taking higher level sses than you are, so you will


    step up. Now all of you go to bed, set rms, anything that happened today is not to be discussed


    outside of your group or outside this castle, literally. Go.”
