Conquering the Alpha (BxB) - Werewolf Story

Chapter 37: I Do

Frightened.

It's the first Monday of November. Last night, Jayden cornered me inside the Gamma locker room where I take my showers, and proposed to me right then and there.

I was blindsided by the stunning ring he was offering to me, a family heirloom, and I was enchanted by the grand gesture - no doubt he was scared that Skylar would manage to prospect me after the wonderful weekend we just spent together in Boulder.

Whatever it took for him to do this gesture, I really appreciate it. He is the one that I wanted to be with. He is the boy who conquered my heart when I wasn't even expecting anybody to do that.

Anybody who would want to do that. *gets emotional*

This would be fine except for the fact that somebody filmed us without our knowledge and now the proposal is going viral on social media. Probably because nobody has ever proposed inside a changing room before. Especially not a same-sex couple - though it would be even weirder if a man was inside a female locker room. O.o

Skylar confronted me just before I walked to the line for breakfast in the cafeteria, demanding to know what my answer was since it was not clear in the video. I pulled him aside and whispered to him what I had told Jayden, in so many words.

Jayden was called away to his grandfather's office - he might not have an Instagram account, but he has eyes and ears, not to mention dozens of employees who report to him - and afterward, he arrived at the cafeteria claiming they already know who the culprit is that filmed us.

It turned out to be a girl. Bitch! *grunts in annoyance*

I could not harm a fly nor would I ever film anybody inside the freaking locker room. The male locker room, might I add. What the hell? I was wearing only a towel wrapped around my waist when Jayden proposed. That is not how I would have liked to be proposed to, much less filmed. But now it's too late.

Before we left the cafeteria, there was a general alert on our phones telling us to report to the Stronghold Auditorium for an emergency assembly. You know what they say, rules must be obeyed. So I brushed my teeth and did as told. As did everybody else, naturally.

"Good morning, students. I am sorry for pulling you away from your morning classes, but apparently, I was not making myself clear the last time I spoke to you." Headmaster Lockwood greeted us with an irritated tone, staring his grandson down in the Alpha section of the seats. I mean, it's not an official section but all the Alphas sit together anyway.

"First of all, you were all given a brochure with the rules and regulations of this academy. You were told there was nowhere to hide here if you did anything against the rules. I just did not imagine I would ever have to point out that it is NOT OKAY TO FILM PEOPLE INSIDE THE LOCKER ROOMS!" He shouted the last part for effect.

"How the hell does anyone think this is acceptable behavior?" He stared down at us, beyond annoyed at the situation. The retired Alpha was wearing his classic three-piece suit. His gray hair was particularly whiter today and he seemed angered. No doubt by Jayden's move last night.

"I knew when I started this job that there would be rule breaking once or twice. I told you before that nobody from outside of your House is allowed inside the locker room [of another house], and then boom! On the first day of school, my own grandson entered the Gamma locker room to take a shower." He called him out with a fierce glare.

"The last time I checked, he is an Alpha so why was he there, I am not sure." He glared at him as if the two of them were the only ones in the room.

"As if that wasn't enough, then I heard Mr. Stronghold was caught having sex inside the Gamma showers." He stared at Skylar, purposefully dragging him along the public shaming. He blushed the reddest I have ever seen before from the collective stares.
