Chapter 19: Marry A Cardinal Alpha

Violet and Lila stood in the breakfast line, with Lila chattering on about something, completely unaware that Violet's mind was somewhere else entirely.

From her place in the line, Violet could only get a partial view of the four thrones—as she called them—but she was hyper-aware of their presence and, to her immense relief, the fact that they were empty. After last night's encounter with Asher, she wasn't sure she could handle seeing any of the Cardinal Alphas, least of all Griffin.

Turns out, not only were the Cardinal Alphas psychopaths, but they were narcissists too. Who in their right mind kept thrones for themselves in a school cafeteria?

Well. Them.
