CHAPTER 31
~Valerie's POV~
I wasn't sure what to say.
Storm's words sat heavy in my chest, and no matter how much I tried to brush it off, the truth remained there.
The Honour Training was no joke. Every senior at PSA knew that once you stepped into your final year, it wasn't just about books and lectures anymore. It was about surviving.
Because this school wasn't normal. Not anymore. Not after the war.
They'd learned the hard way that teens like us—alphas, lunas, betas, gammas—we weren't ready. So now, they made sure we would be.
"What about the Senior Year Honour Training?" I asked, even though I already had a gut feeling.
Storm didn't answer right away. His eyes flickered, serious. "The Alpha Forge."
"Alpha?" I cut in.
He let out a sigh. "Yes. That's what it's called. The Alpha Forge is training meant to make stronger alphas, but it's for everyone in the final year. You know why."
