She turned to Lila and asked, “What do you mean she’s jealous of me?” Then, looking directly at Ivy, she added politely, “No offense, but we’ve just met. Why would you be jealous of me? That doesn’t make any sense.”
“Offense is taken,” Ivy spat, her words sharp. “If you’re actually believing the nonsense that loudmouth is spewing.”
“God, your pride is legendary, especially considering how you were talking about that video just moments ago,” Daisy finally spoke up, her face tight with annoyance.
But Violet wasn’t interested in whatever confrontation was brewing. Her attention snapped to the new piece of information she’d just overheard. She stepped away from the overly touchy Lila, her voice cold. “What video are we talking about?”
All three girls turned to her, looking at her as if she were a clueless novice. Violet felt her cheeks flush with embarrassment. What was she missing?
Daisy raised an eyebrow. “You haven’t checked your Moonfeed?”
“Moonfeed?” Violet echoed, even more confused.
“Moonsphere,” Daisy explained. “It’s the site where both humans and werewolves at Lunaris Academy get all the gossip, trending topics, and the latest campus news. It’s not like LunarLink, the official academic network. Moonsphere’s student-run. More fun, more entertaining. And yeah, you’re currently trending.”
What the hell? Violet’s mind raced. This wasn’t how she imagined finding out something important.
Before she could pull out her phone to search for this so-called Moonsphere, Lila had already whipped hers out. She moved closer to Violet, showing her the screen. “You might want to sit down for this one,” she said, her voice almost gleeful.
Violet didn’t need to be told twice. She sat on the edge of the bed, Lila settling in beside her. With a few quick taps, Lila searched for the video using her name, and there it was, front and center. Violet’s eyes widened the moment it started playing.
The video circulating on Moonfeed was a clip of Griffin manhandling her. He lifted her off the ground as if she weighed nothing, letting her dangle helplessly before throwing her down like a ragdoll. Violet winced, her stomach twisting with humiliation as she watched herself hit the floor, ungraceful and vulnerable.
The thought that the entire school had seen her like that burned in her chest. She wanted to disappear, to sink into the floor and never be seen again.
Violet was still in utter disbelief when Lila grinned and said, “And now, for the highlight of the day.” She tapped on the comment section.

“What the fuck…..”
Disgust twisted low in Violet’s belly, a sickening churn that made her want to throw up. She’d seen a lot in her old school, but this was on another level of twisted. Her anger zeroed in on one particular comment, the idiot who had moaned about not getting a peek under her clothes.
Her skin crawled. She noted his username with icy precision, already plotting a way to track him down. When she did, he would regret the day his mother hadn’t used protection; his existence was a mistake she intended to fix.
For a moment, Violet wondered if Mary had been right when she’d warned her to keep her head down and avoid drawing attention. Maybe this place wasn’t a real school after all, but some warped social experiment or a rehabilitation center for budding psychopaths, where scholarship kids were just thrown in as entertainment. The thought felt wild, but here… maybe it wasn’t so far-fetched.
Regardless, there was no going back now. She’d have to ride out this storm that was Lunaris Academy.
Without a word, she snatched Lila’s phone right out of her hand.
“Hey!” Lila shouted, trying to grab it back. Violet blocked her with her body and furiously swiped at the screen, her fingers clumsy but determined.
“What on earth are you even trying to do?” Lila demanded.
“Trying to delete the video!” Violet hissed, her frustration mounting. She wasn’t tech-savvy, but she was determined to figure it out.
“You can’t!” Lila cried out. “Even if you delete it from my feed, it’s already gone viral all over Moonsphere.”
Deep down, Violet knew it was too late. But she’d hoped, against all odds, that she could still undo the damage. It was a fool’s hope, she realized bitterly.
Violet ran a hand through her hair with an annoyed groan before tossing the phone back to Lila, who caught it swiftly. Lila pouted as she cradled the device, petting it as though it were a wounded pet Violet had manhandled.
“Is this school really like this?” Violet burst out. “Just preying on people’s weaknesses and mindlessly worshiping jerks like Griffin?”
Daisy’s expression turned serious, and she warned, “Careful about badmouthing the cardinal alphas. The walls have ears here, and you don’t want to find yourself in more trouble than you bargained for.”
“And she’s not even grateful,” Ivy sneered from her bed, disdain dripping from her voice.
Anger flashed in Violet’s eyes. She stomped over to Ivy, getting right in her face. “Well, excuse me for not being grateful to be choked by some entitled asshole. Though, it sounds like you’d enjoy that kind of foreplay. Too bad you didn’t get lucky enough to take my place,” she shot back, her voice laced with venom.
Ivy’s blue eyes darkened, and her jaw clenched, but instead of lashing out with another insult, she simply muttered, “You don’t get it, do you?”
“What’s there to get?” Violet shot back, her patience wearing thin.
Ivy smirked. “Great. You’re dense,” she retorted, unkindly.
Violet’s hands clenched, and her teeth bared in a silent warning. She had a lifetime of anger and violence to draw on if this stuck-up girl kept pushing her. But before she could react, Lila quickly slid between them, looping an arm around Violet’s shoulders.
Violet wasn’t fond of Lila’s overly familiar touch, but she had to admit it cooled her anger by a degree. Lila gave Ivy a chastising look before turning to Violet with a bright smile.
