Chapter 214 – Possessive
–LIA’S POV–
My hands clenched, and I turned around before I’d say or do something I’d regret.
Behind me, Zane snapped, “Keep your hands off of me if you wanna keep them, you understand? Leave us alone.”
I glanced back.
Their faces were red with embarrassment.
Zane let her hand go with a jerk, and they quickly scurried away, whispering to each other.
Zane reached for my hand. “Hey. You okay?”
I nodded, trying to focus on my breathing. “Yeah,” I muttered. “I don’t like how she touched you.”
“I stopped her,” Zane said, pulling me closer.
“I know. It’s the bond, I think,” I said quietly. “It’s getting stronger and I think it’s changing me. Making me more… possessive or something.”
Zane smiled like that was the best thing he’d ever heard. “You know that’s kind of hot, right?”
I shoved him lightly, rolling my eyes. “You’re impossible.”
“Still hot, though.”
Before I could reply, the Hounds approached us.
“Alright, lovebirds,” Ajax groaned. “Save it for after school.”
“Or the janitor’s closet,” Aaron added.
Sheila laughed. “Let them be. They’re adorable.”
Zane grinned and threw an arm around my shoulder. “Yeah, we are. Ajax is just jealous.”
I was about to say something when I caught Warner staring at me. Not at both of us. Just me.
He looked… off.
Not suspicious. But like he was studying me or something.
I frowned a little but didn’t say anything.
“Can we get to class now?” Ajax asked. “This is a place of learning. Not romance.”
“Sure,” I said. “Let’s go. Exams are coming up anyway, and we are so behind everything.”
I didn’t really care, but I was trying to.
First period was English, which was usually chill, except for the fact that our teacher looked like she’d been waiting to retire for a decade.
Zane and I walked in, and she handed him a pink slip.
“Principal wants to see you, Mr. Adams,” she said.
