209words
[Alphas, I apologize. I need to explain something]
Kael: [Go ahead]
Asher: [I'm listening]
I took a deep breath:
[Those challenge letters were fake. I just wanted your training spots]
[I'm so incredibly sorry!]
I hit send, threw my phone at Luna, and dove under my covers.
Too terrified to witness their reactions.
After about a minute, Luna said, "Uh, they don't believe you."
I poked my head out: "What?"
Luna showed me the screen.
Kael: [No way. You clearly said you've wanted to challenge me since the Alliance meeting]
Kael: [Your eyes were dead serious. Like you wanted to tear me apart]
Asher: [I don't believe it either]
Asher: [So many Alphas in that hall. Why did you single me out?]
Me: "..."
These two Alphas. Completely delusional.
Luna rolled on her bed laughing: "HAHAHA Elara, you've got two of the hottest Alphas fighting over you!"
Me, fighting back tears of panic.
I frantically typed: [It's genuinely a misunderstanding! Look at this screenshot from the forum!]
I sent the screenshot. The chat went silent.
I waited ten minutes. No response.
I checked again—
Both Alphas had left the group chat.
Me: ...
Did I just make everything worse?
