Chapter 233
CITA
After Sparring class 1 went straight to Yorick's room, our friends were right behind
me. When we got there, he was busy searching his
computer.
"What are doing Shakespeare?" Zach asks him. Yorick pullsinto his lap,
barely looking up from his computer.
"Hacker paida visit after | got back to my room," he says.
"How did he know you weren't in class?" Landon asks.
Yorick points to his phone. "I was talking to Wendy and apparently our resident
Hacker has alerts when any of us say certain names, such as Alpha Leo or
Hacker. He's probably listening to us now that I just said both names. Anyway, he
gave the names of five individuals who were admitted to the Academy, one a year
for the last five years, the most recent being Jory. None of these individuals met
the admission criteria for the Academy."
"What?" Piper asks, walking over. "Then how did they get in?"
"That is the million-dollar question," Yorick says. "Hacker says that Alpha Leo has
the final say on admission, so he's digging deeper into him. But | looked these five
individuals up, four men, one woman, sAlphas who were lazy goof offs and
did nothing for their packs or they were warriors who weren't strong enough to
take on Lead Warrior positions," he says.
"| didn't have a Lead Warrior position," Landon says.
"Did you apply for it?" I ask him.
"No, but if that's your criteria, then | didn't meet it either," he says.
"They didn't qualify for it. The two who were admitted had not been selected as
Lead Warriors. They HAD applied for the position in their
packs," Yorick says.
"How did you figure all of that out?" | ask him, watching as types a few more keys
and sits back.
Wendy is helping me. She's damn good and it would really pissoff if she
didn't get in next year and someone like Jory took her spot. I'm guessing a lot of
packs will be unhappy if they find out about this," he says.
"Con, let's go get lunch. We need to eat so we can get to our afternoon
classes," | say to him.
That night, rather than working on strategy for battle, we focus our attention on
the five names that Hacker gave Yorick, none of us finding anything that proved
that they should have been admitted to the Academy.
The next day in Sparring class was exactly the same, only this time, Alpha Leo
paired Yorick with Megan who took every opportunity to grab him and touch him in
every way possible. | was ready to kick her ass when Alpha Leo once again
shouted at Yorick that he wasn't following the directions of the class. This time,
Warrior Callie stepped in and told Megan that she'd better start using the skills
that she'd learned or she too would get kicked out.
It was obvious now that Alpha Leo was targeting Yorick. Yorick might have been
able to deal with it, but when Megan grabbed his dick, he
threw her off of him.
"That's it! You're out!" Alpha Leo yelled at Yorick.

snarled.

"Watch yourself or you'll find yourself kicked out of class just like your boyfriend,"
Alpha Leo says. He's about to get in my face when Yorick puts himself between
us.
"I think we both know it'syou want. Because, let's be honest, someone paid you
right," Yorick says quietly enough that only the two of us can hear him.
| thought Alpha Leo was going to punch him, but Alpha Nevaeh stepped in at that
moment and barked at Yorick to go. The only positive was that she turned to
Megan and barked at her that she was out too.
Alpha Leo started to argue with her, but the look that Alpha Nevaeh gave him was
so blazing hot with anger that it could have melted steel. She's obviously as angry
with Alpha Leo as | am.
When she turned back to me, she nodded her head. "Get back to your partner."
Her tone withwas much more moderated, but | noticed that she didn't step
away until Alpha Leo went back to watching others in the class.
Wednesday, it happened again and this time, | noticed that the instructors who are
warriors looked at Alpha Nevaeh as if waiting for her to step in.
"Alpha Leo, this is the third day in a row that you've switched up our pairing
schedule. You want to put Yorick and Takk together again and | don't see the
purpose. They've already sparred this week. Aren't we supposed to be providing
alternate fighting partners so our students learn new and different ways to fight?"
she asks, obviously challenging him.
The two had a very uncomfortable stare-off but in the end, Alpha Nevaeh won
and Yorick was finally able to spar willing to practice what we'd learned.
someone who was
Each day the tensions in class are getting higher and it seems like everyone can
tell that something is up with Alpha Leo, but either no one is going against him, or
he is pulling rank.
"I'm going to talk to Alpha Nevaeh, see if she can giveany insights into what's
going on," Yorick says that night at dinner.
"It's bullshit, that's what it is. He's obviously trying to push you out of the
Academy," Zach says.
"Has Hacker said any more about it?" | ask him.
"He said he's still working on it. But I'll tell you this, | don't give a fuck how much
pressure Alpha Leo puts on me. I'm not quitting."
We're just finishing dinner when Piper's phone pings.
She looks at the message then looks back at us.
"Tracker has something. She wants to meet at our spot in an hour."
"Who's Tracker?" Katelynn asks. She sort of joined our group in the beginning, but
she comes and goes and she hasn't earned her place in our
inner circle like Chase has.
"A friend," Piper says cryptically.
"Can | cwith your guys?" Katelynn asks.
| glance at Yorick. With everything that's going on lately, I'm not inclined to trust
anyone we don't already know is on our side.
"She won't talk to us if we bring someone new," Zach says.
"But she'll talk to all of you?" she asks.
"You haven't been around much. We've met with her several times and she
knows us," | say.

She looks around the table and realizes that none of us will budge, not right now.
If this was a week ago, no problem. But now, I've got Stellan
issues and Yorick has Alpha Leo issues. We don't need any more problems.
"| see," she says, grabbing her tray and standing up abruptly. She waits a
moment, as if hoping one of us will change our minds, but when we don't, she
stomps off.
"Sorry, not sorry," Landon says. "There's too much shit going on right now and
since we don't always know where she is..."
"It's better this way. She'll get over it or she won't," Chase says. "Tracker said one
hour?"
"Yeah."
Nearly an hour later, we all meet in the hallway outside our dorms and make our
way to the library. For sreason, | keep looking behind me, almost expecting
Katelynn to be following us.
"Are you okay?" Yorick asks.
"Yeah, I'm fine. We just don't need any more problems, you know?"
Agreed.
He wraps an arm around my shoulder and when we walk into the library, the
person behind the desk barely gives us a second glance. | guess they're getting
used to our group walking in.
We head back to the table that Tracker uses and find her waiting for us.
"Have a seat," she says, looking at all of us. It almost makesfeel vindicated
for telling Katelynn that she couldn't come. You never know with Tracker, she
might have denied talking to us. We're pretty much at her mercy.
"You askedto find the mate," she says to Piper.
"Stellan's mate?" | ask, and Tracker looks at me.
"Is that a problem?"
"No. You found her?"
She raises an arrogant eyebrow in the way that only an Alpha can. "I'm not called
Tracker for nothing. It's what I'm best
at. Yes, | found herAsi@says;tlihing

Piper looks at Yorick, making sure he's relatively calm before continuing.
"If I had to guess, I'd say that even if he were to somehow kill Cyra," she says,

again. "I'd say no matter what, Stellan never intends to take his mate. He's

She and | both look at Tracker.

"Nothing cryptic about that. Maybe they should call you Labyrinth," Zach says.
Tracker turns her steely gaze on him.
"Just a suggestion," he murmurs.
She turns back to Yorick. "I understand you've been targeted."
"Yes," he says.
"Be ready for anything. And | do mean anything."
"Thank you for the head's up."
With that, she closes her computer and tucks it into her bag before standing.
"We'll be in touch," she says, before walking away.
Well, there was nothing ominous about that.
