Chapter 120
THEON
Despite Collins apologizing, I fired him on the spot as an Elite and as a coach.
I knew word would spread of what I had done and I hoped it would be a fucking warning to anyone else who thinks they can come into the Academy to bully Ryn or speak trash of myself and my brother.
I won't tolerate that nonsense and I am happy to make someone an example.
Adam, who had been preoccupied with other things, decided to take back his position as coach and stay for the rest of the term. Then he gave me something.
"Can you please give Ryn her pendant?" He asked. "I forgot to hand it to her."
I collected the item from him and nodded once before leaving the room.
Before going up, I decided I was in the mood to be petty so I went to the office where my father stayed and strolled in.
I was expecting him and his cabal to be in a bad mood, but to my confusion and surprise, I found him toasting a drink with Dutton and Alpha Jack.
When he saw me, his smile widened. "Son, join me. Let's celebrate."
I stayed put, shoving my hands in my pockets. "What are you celebrating?"
A wicked glint shone in his eyes. "The downfall of Ryn Ashmore."
As soon as he said that, I felt the worst kind of sadness envelope me. A sadness so intense, i felt chills in my bones and needles poking my heart. "Ryn." I whispered and then I was rushing out of the office and taking the steps three at a time.
Within a few minutes, I entered the space I dedicated to Ryn and found my brother hugging a crying Sadie close to his body.
What the fuck is happening?
"Why are you crying? Where's Ryn?" I demanded, hoping something terrible hadn't happened to her.
They glanced at each other before looking at me in confusion.
"She told me you asked to meet downstairs." Sadie said, sitting up, wiping her face. "Even my Dad was here and I told him the same thing."
I blinked at her. "I never said that."
Sadie glanced at Miro and then at me. "She was in such a hurry to leave."
She sniffled and I wondered who hurt my pumpkin. Also, why is my brother pale in the face?
Gods! Can't something just go right for once? Can't I just have a moment of peace where I don't have to worry else?
I took a deep breath and exhaled.

Her eyes shifted from me
to the floor. "I felt guilty for starting a campaign online for Ryn and now it has backfired."
"You." I pointed to Sadie. "Why are you crying?"
I shared a glance with my brother, not really understanding social media speak.
Miro sighed. "What she's saying is before the event, she gathered support for Ryn online, but since the Billie video, that support has turned into the worst cyber bullying." Fuck. I remember the last time someone was cyberbullied in my circle. That was way back in college. Within twenty-four hours, he killed himself.

Chapter 120.
That better not happen to Ryn, or 1, will go on a fucking killing spree.
"So, no one knows where Ryn is?" I asked as I pulled out my phone and dialed her line. Miro and Sadie shook their heads, looking worried.
The longer her line rang, the heavier my heart pounded.
This sadness I felt had now morphed into loneliness the kind that made me feel like jumping off a cliff and sinking into the bottom of the ocean. She never picked so it went to voicemail.
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
I decided to leave a voicemail for her, and sprinkled in some threats to motivate her to find me.
I don't even care about punishing her for ignoring my call. I just want to see her. I want to breathe the same air as her and I swear to the gods, once I find her, I'll make her sleep in my room.
No kissing. No intimacy whatsoever. I just want to hold my Bunny close to my heart and feel her heartbeat as she sleeps.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
"Are you okay?" Miro's voice slipped into my head. I turned to find him watching me. Sadie, on the other end, was typing furiously on her phone.
"What do you think?" I replied and then I took a deep breath, swallowing my emotions. Since I met Ryn, I hadn't been able to do that. Now I need to be strong for her and for myself.
I don't want to feel right now or I'd do things I might regret.
I dialed her line again, and to my anger, worry, horror, I found it switched off.
So I called Adam.
"Yes, my Prince."
""Where are you?"
"Packing up with the guys, about to head home."
"Good. Get as many men as you can, and find Ryn for me."
There was hesitation on the other end.
"Sir, with all due respect, I don't think
Ryn did what that girl blamed her for. I mean why didn't she say. something all this while? Why wait for Ryn to get famous? Please, don't hurt her."
I closed my eyes as it dawned on me that I never checked nor cared if Ryn was in the right or not. I just cared if she was okay.
"I'm not arresting her but I have a feeling she might do something stupid if I don't find her in time."
"Will get right on it immediately."
The call ended and I began to pace the room. Then my eyes fell on the poisonous plant sent as a death threat to Ryn.
Why didn't she tell me about it? Did the person who sent the threat get to Ryn already?
Miro and Sadie approached me.
"What kind of plant is that?" She asked.
Suddenly, the door opened and I turned around hoping to see Ryn. Instead, it was the last person I ever wanted to see. Chelsea.
"What are you doing here?" I gritted out..
She folded her arms and pouted. "Your brother left me in the car for hours! I have been cooking in there!"
