Glisser (Ironside Academy, #5)

“Is this a joke?” he asked, leaning closer to her. “Let’s go talk in private.” He stood and grabbed her arm, trying to pull her out of the chair. She quickly planted her feet against the back of the chair in front of her, locking up her body. “Let’s not?” She laughed awkwardly, trying to keep it casual. He tugged harder. “Seriously, Sigma⁠—” Silva was suddenly jerked to the side and tossed into the chair beside her. Moses sat on his other side, holding him to the chair by the neck. Theodore was pulling his arm, trying to pull him out of the chair while Moses held him down. “Seriously, Beta,” Theodore mocked. “Let’s just go talk. Somewhere. Private.” Each word was accompanied by a yank of Silva’s arm until the Beta screamed. It all happened so quickly that Isobel barely had time to react, and what frightened her the most was that she felt nothing from Theodore and Moses. She couldn’t even sense a drop of the absolute rage that vibrated through their bodies or flashed in their eyes. She was too shocked to move, or to react, as Moses leaned in close to Silva—as close as Silva had leaned into her. “Why aren’t you moving, Beta?” he whispered dangerously. “Just get up.” Theodore pulled harder, and there was an audible crack, accompanied by another scream from Silva, who was now trembling in his seat, tears in his eyes.

I love how they went psycho of this beta and messed him up for messing with her
