“Tournament at PLE tonight, and you two motherfuckers are coming with me,” I stated to Nate and Jimmy while they were playing Soul Calibur.
“Like hell, I am,” Jimmy stated. “I’m kicking this bitch’s ass.”
“Fuck you, I’m seconds away from dancing on your pathetic corpse,” Nate replied.
I shook my head. “Guys, I promised the girls they could have the apartment to plot tonight. We need to clear out,” I urged.
Nate gave Jimmy a killing blow, and turned to face me. “Why are you giving the girls the place?”
“Rina and Rose want to plot the queen bitch’s down
I tapped my pencil on the table in the library’s study room that I reserved for my tutoring sessions, and checked the time. Again. My student was late. I shouldn’t care, because I charge for my time no matter what, and I get my students through the university tutoring center so they track my appointments and make sure I get paid. Still, it was annoying to be stuck here waiting for someone who was struggling with basic math when I could be spending the night with my friends.“Sorry I’m,” a voice called as a girl entered the room, “late.”I looked up and saw Bethany, Rina’s roommate, staring at me in shock. “Hello, Bethany. Nice of you to make it to your tutoring session. You’re taking basic math, right?” I asked, getting down to business.
Kimi and Kam’s birthday passed without much fuss because they wanted to celebrate on Rose’s birthday. It didn’t stop me from giving Kimi a necklace that looked like a model of a white hole in glass. She appeared to love it, and has worn it almost every day since her birthday.Kimi and Kam wanted to surprise Rose by taking her to Izzy’s tattoo parlor to get tattoos. Kimi decided she didn’t want to risk getting an infection while pregnant, so I arranged for her to get a henna tattoo to tide her over until after the baby’s born. Since I really liked the idea of getting something to always remind me of Kimi, and her me, we each created a small design for the other to wear. Kam had already given Izzy his design for the tattoos he wanted for himself and Rose.“Are you three going to tell me where w
“That was,” I sighed as I rolled off of the blonde, toned, pale man who’d just given me a few of the best orgasms I’ve ever had, “nice.”Rafe rolled toward me, and kissed my naked shoulder. “Just nice?” he chuckled.I closed my eyes as the blissful feeling of coming down went through my body. “Yup. Nice.”“I’ve never gotten that before,” he propped his head on his hand and stared at me.I smiled. “Should I protect your fragile male ego?”“You should always protect the fragile male ego,” he said with amusement.
“Holy hell, Rina! Why the fuck do you smell like sex and vampire?” I asked my sister when she turned up at my bedroom door at some horribly early hour. “What has your panties in such a twist that you have to wake me up?”“Matty raped one of my sorority sisters,” she blurted out. “I just found out tonight.”She elbowed her way into my room, and sat on my bed. “Please, come in and regale me with a story about my cousin’s evil sexcapades,” I grumbled.Rina huffed impatiently. “I’m trying to convince her to go to the police and make a report, but she won’t.”I rubbed my hands over my face. “I’m not surprised. Uncle Fari
“Rose! Wait up!” I turned to see who was calling me across the quad, and found Heather running toward me with Dave behind her.“Hey! How are you?” I asked when she caught up with me. I hadn’t seen her in a few weeks, but that last meeting wasn’t happy.“Great. Have you met Dave?” she gestured to the bulky half vampire behind her.Dave put his arm around her. “Rose and I met shortly before I met you.”“Oh.” I tried not to giggle as Heather looked from him, to me, to him again. “Are you two friends or foes?”“Friends, I hope,” I answered.
I was sitting in the GLE house with the rest of the sorority. It was the first time I’d been there since Rose and I were drugged, and I was not comfortable being back. However, Sarina told me I needed to be here for this meeting since she was enacting her plan to oust Chelsea.“I know you don’t want to be here, or tell everyone what happened in high school, but they need to hear it,” Rina said as she squeezed my hand. “They need to know why you didn’t come back.”“Do they though?” I whispered.“If my suspicions are correct, then yes, they do,” she answered.Chelsea came into the room followed by her minions. Yelena, I noticed, looked a little di
Thanksgiving came around all too soon. Ray left early so he would get a night by himself with Sue, and the rest of us flew out Wednesday morning. With Rachel coming with us, Jimmy and Rina were the odd wolves out, and stuck next to each other on the flights. Rina wasn’t happy about that, but Jimmy was thrilled.Me? I was terrified. It was one thing to tell Ma she was going to be a grandmother when she couldn’t easily kill me. It was another to face her in person after telling her. I’m sure to have some passive aggressive words waiting for me. Kimi’s parents might actually kill me. Then there are the Braedons. Mrs. Braedon scares the shit out of me, and she loves Kimi like a daughter.“Relax,” Kimi placed a hand on my leg as our plane touched down at the airport nearest Aspen Falls. “They&rsqu
“I don’t get why I have to sit in the middle when I’ve done nothing wrong,” Rina complained as she buckled her seatbelt.“You’ve got the skinniest butt, Sis,” Ray stated.Mom glanced at us in the rearview mirror. “Kimi’s pregnant, so she gets shot-gun.” Kimi turned and stuck her tongue out.“All the more reason she should be squished. Her or your tattooed son,” Rina grumbled.“Don’t worry, my darling good child, your time will come,” Mom smirked.“Mom!” Ray and I exclaimed.Kimi just shook her head
