CHAPTER 361
~Dristan's POV~
When I left her office, my thoughts burned, and one image seared into my mind: Marianne's pale face. Whoever was framing me would regret it.
Because I wasn't the monster they thought I was. But I knew the kind of monster I could become if they pushed me far enough.
I was so angry from the accusations that I refused to return to class and instead headed to the Alpha's house.
It was then that I overheard Xade and Valerie speaking about me and me. Heaven knew how angry I was, and that was how I ended up here, alone.
My phone buzzed in my pocket, and I pulled it out, glancing at the screen.
Father.
Even though I wasn't scared, my heart skipped a beat instantly. Of course. Because this day couldn't possibly get any worse.
I answered the call in a flat tone. "Yes?"
"Dristan." His voice was clipped and authoritative as usual, devoid of any warmth. "Come home. Now."
