Warren's POV:

After leaving the training ground, I felt restless, wandering around like a puppet. It was my first time doing something this evil on purpose, and I felt so terrible that I couldn't even hold my head high.

I sat by the lake and held my head remorsefully. Things went totally beyond my control. All I wanted was to stay by Alina's side. I didn't want to hurt anyone. They must have found out that I deliberately made things difficult for Sylvia.

"Warren, it's okay. No one will find out that you did it on purpose," Salt, my wolf, comforted me. "No. Judging from the way Blair looked at me, I think he must have noticed it." I was extremely tormented. And it was more painful than being cut by a blunt knife.

"You guys were fighting, and everything you did was just reasonable. Besides, if Blair had known it, he probably wouldn't have let you go just now."

Although what Salt said made sense, I still felt very uneasy. "I really don't want to do such kind of thing again."

But when I thought of Alina, I was in a dilemma. I didn't want to make her cry again because of my failure. She trusted me so much that she had entrusted this task to me. "How about we think of another way without hurting her? As long as Sylvia can't attend the ball, everything will be okay." Salt started helping me come up with new ideas.

"I still need to think about it." I lowered my head, lost in thought. How could I stop Sylvia from going to the ball without hurting her?

I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't come up with any idea, so I decided to go back first.

It was already dark when I returned to the dormitory. I opened the door of my room dejectedly and found Blair sitting on a chair and reading a book leisurely. It seemed that he had been waiting for me for a long time.

My heart sank.

"You're finally back," Blair said nonchalantly without even looking at me. He turned another page.

I clenched my fists, loosened them, closed the door, and asked, "Why are you here, sir?"

"Because I care about my students." Blair finally put down the book and walked up to me. He raised his eyebrows, looked at me up and down, and said, "Your muscles are well-built. But it's a pity that they still don't have enough strength."

I couldn't stand the sarcasm in his voice, so I sat down on a chair and said, "Sir, please go straight to the point. Why did you come to see me?"

There was no smile on Blair's face anymore. He snorted coldly, "I know you tried to break Sylvia's leg on purpose. I didn't say it in public this afternoon because I didn't want to make the situation too embarrassing for you."

I wasn't surprised that he found out because I knew how keen he was.

"Sir, what are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean." I didn't want to respond to Blair's words directly. With his power and status, I was likely to be expelled from the school immediately if I admitted it now. But I didn't want to be kicked out of the school for the time being. I had to help Alina fulfill her wish first.

"I thought you were a smart guy," Blair sneered and squinted at me.

He stared at me so impatiently that I got irritated at once. "Are you going to protect Sylvia to the end? Why are you accusing me of something without evidence?"

"You hate Sylvia because she is a slave. Warren, you are just like everyone else." Blair didn't take my anger seriously. He looked at me lazily as if I was a clown.

I felt relieved after hearing what he said. Fortunately, he didn't know my real purpose. No matter what, I would protect Alina well and wouldn't let her get involved in any trouble.

"So what?" I feigned indifference and smiled. "She is just a slave. Why do you care so much about her?"

I shifted the topic to the slave issue.

Blair's eyes turned fierce when he heard what I said. "I'm warning you. If you dare to do it again, you won't stay in this academy anymore. I'll make sure that you will immediately get kicked out of here."
