CHAPTER EIGHT

RORY

“ I t reeks like pussy in here,” Caden stated as he wandered into my bedroom a few hours later. I peeked out from under the covers and stretched out contently like a cat in the sun.

“Don’t like it? Leave.”

He smirked, giving me a playful wink. “Who said I didn’t like it? I happen to quite like your pussy.”

I hesitated before moving over and patting the bed beside me. “Jump in?”

He seemed surprised but pulled the covers back and climbed in, putting an arm out for me to cuddle up to him.

He groaned as I placed one of my legs over his waist, his hand resting high on my bare thigh. “You’re still only wearing Luke’s blazer? C’mon, babe. Play fair.”

I snorted with amusement. “Is my lack of underwear suddenly a problem for you?”

He grinned, his hand running up and down my thigh, toying with the bottom of the fabric.

“It’s not a problem, my lack of willpower might be though.

Have you been playing with yourself in here, or has someone been doing it for you?

” My face heated, a low chuckle coming from him instantly.

“Jense helped you relax, did he? I noticed today that you and Lukas seem friendly again. You guys playing nice now?”

“We had a talk this morning after you left. I don’t really want to talk about it, but?—”

“But you talked to Jense, right?” Disappointment was thick in his voice.

If I was going to avoid him freaking me out in the future, I should’ve just told him, but the thought made me feel sick. It was my most vulnerable secret, and I didn’t want to keep repeating the story to all the guys.

Jensen and Lukas knew, so there wasn’t much point keeping it from Caden and Tyler. The guys would probably tell them anyway, so if I gave them permission, it wouldn’t be behind my back.

“I don’t want to talk about it again, okay? Jense and Luke can tell you about it though, if you really want to know,” I replied softly.

“Hey, that stunt the girls pulled at school today will be dealt with, okay?” he said sternly, changing the subject.

I tensed, but his hand trailed higher up my thigh and moved under the blazer, resting on my bare hip as it fell open more.

“They seem to forget that we run the school, not them. It’s time they were put back in their place. ”

He seemed surprised when I leaned over and kissed him, but he recovered quickly and kissed me back, pulling me on top of him in his need to get closer.

His hands clamped onto my ass as he ground himself against me, and the moment I nibbled his lower lip, he growled in warning and flipped us over so that I was lying under him.

He yanked the blazer off me before shoving two fingers inside my pussy, making me gasp at how aggressive it was. I never thought I’d be the type of girl to enjoy it a little rough.

“Do you want me to fuck you?” he bit out as his fingers worked harder and faster, a groan of surrender leaving me. I was going to hell.

“Yes.”

“Yes, what?”

“Yes, I want you to fuck me,” I breathed as he pulled his fingers out and quickly unzipped his pants, my back arching as he pushed himself inside me without any other warning.

He slammed into me like a crazed man, making me cry out as he fucked me through my orgasm once it peaked. It was hard, fast, and so damn good.

He collapsed on top of me with a groan as he came, and we laid in silence for a while, which was surprisingly not awkward in the slightest.

His phone rang from down the hall, making him grumble with annoyance as he gave me a kiss and rolled off my sweaty body.

“Come join me in the kitchen? I’ll make some dinner.”

I was surprised he even knew how to turn the stove on. Caden might be a spoiled rich boy, but his mother made sure to keep him a little humble.

I gave him a nod, watching him leave the room before I pulled myself out of bed and padded into the bathroom to have a quick shower, cringing as his cum ran down my thighs. It felt gross, and I stepped under the spray before it even heated, needing the stickiness off me.

It always reminded me of him , a shudder rolling through me as I forced the memories out of my head and scrubbed myself clean.

I walked into the kitchen in my tank top and shorts almost twenty minutes later once I’d had my freak-out in peace, finding Caden shirtless in front of the stove, cooking us steak and fries.

I was surprised to find Tyler sitting at the kitchen table with a beer in his hand, his eyes running over my body before giving me a wink, causing tingles to form inside me.

“You’ve got the nicest legs I’ve ever seen on a woman. They’d look better over my shoulders though. Come sit on my lap and we’ll talk about the first thing that pops up.”

“That’s a terrible pick-up line, and you know it,” I snorted, despite it working as my traitorous body warmed at the thought. I forced myself to sit beside him, giving Caden a grateful smile as he slid a cold beer in front of me, while Tyler grinned as if he was saying the world’s greatest joke.

“You’d know if I was trying to pick you up because you’d already be on my lap screaming my name, babe.”

Bold assumption, but it was also probably true.

“Believe it or not, but you aren’t that irresistible, Ty,” I lied, popping the top on my beer and sipping it casually as I tried to control my hormones before I did something stupid. Like jump on his lap and let him fuck me.

Caden had woken my damn hormones up or something.

“Ouch. Damn, girl. That’s cold,” he laughed, taking a swig of his beer as he eyed me with amusement. I liked that he was man enough to handle rejection.

A lot of guys threw tantrums and acted entitled.

Caden placed a plate in front of both of us before sitting down to eat his own. He was such a gentleman when he wanted to be.

Tyler groaned as he watched me shovel fries into my mouth like the animal I was. I was fucking starving, and I didn’t care if I looked unladylike in front of the guys.

“I love a woman who can eat. Seriously, come sit on my lap.”

“Nope,” I mumbled around my food, not moving from my seat.

“But you’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen, and it would be such an honor to—” he started with the fakest sweet smile I’d ever seen.

The fact that I was tempted to curl up on his lap pissed me off, so I reached across the table and stabbed my knife into his steak swiftly, causing him to jump as I returned his smile with the same fake sweetness.

“I said no, Ty. And you’re so full of fucking shit .”

Maybe he wasn’t that good with rejection after all.

Caden cracked up laughing as I took my knife back, but Tyler shrugged. “Well, it’s kind of true. You’re super fucking hot.”

He was such a romantic bastard. A real modern day Romeo.

I took a forkful of steak and rolled my eyes, letting the guys talk over the top of me for a while. They discussed ways to rein the other students in, and Tyler brought up something about getting some cocaine from some guy named Slash for the party they were planning.

At least if I was stuck in rich-bitch land, I could take advantage of the rich-people drugs that came along with it. It was hard finding good quality powder in the Heights, most of it was cut and tampered with, leaving behind a bullshit high.

It did the job, but it was nothing in comparison to the good shit.

I jumped when a pair of hands suddenly landed on my waist, and I looked over my shoulder to see Caden behind me, apology in his eyes. “I didn’t mean to startle you, baby. You want to come for a swim with us? Ty skinny-dips most of the time, just a heads-up.”

“Aren’t there cameras?”

“I’ll turn them off. Mom doesn’t check them unless something goes wrong anyway, or she’d know I’m here, and I’m not supposed to be.”

I pushed my plate away with a nod and waited for him to go and switch the cameras off, then I climbed off the seat to follow him outside, wondering if it was a good idea.

Tyler had thankfully jumped into the pool by the time we got outside, and when I pulled my shirt over my head, Caden growled. “You’re swimming in your bra and panties? Are you trying to kill me?”

I chuckled with fake confidence as a tug of anxiety moved through me, ruffling his hazel-brown hair playfully to hide it. I wasn’t sure if these guys were making me brave, or reckless.

“Well, I’m not going to swim naked, am I?”

“You totally could!” Tyler offered from the pool, Caden grinning with obvious agreement.

“Yeah. You could.”

They were both pigs.

I rolled my eyes and sat on the edge of the pool, sliding in and enjoying the cool water as it lapped at my warm skin, simmering my nerves slightly. There was no way I was going to get naked in front of Tyler.

Caden jumped in and swam up to me, backing me against the pool wall with a smirk. “You make me so fucking horny.”

“I can feel that,” I huffed as his rock-hard dick pressed against me, and I startled when he kissed me hard without warning. It was wild and out of control, my body automatically grinding against his desperately.

Tyler mumbled something under his breath, but I ignored him as Caden’s hands trailed across my bare waist, setting my skin on fire. I tensed when his fingers dipped into my panties, but he didn’t seem to notice how anxious I was.

As much as I loved his hands on me, it scared me at the same time.

I wasn’t supposed to want this, especially not with an audience.

His voice was soft, calming me slightly when he realized how uncomfortable I was. “Relax, baby. Let me look after you.”

“But Ty?—”

“You’ll just give him blue balls, it’s fine,” he answered, earning a splash from Tyler.

“Hey! Blue balls fucking suck, asshole!”

I ignored Tyler, giving Caden an uneasy glance. He placed a kiss on my shoulder to reassure me, and I’d be damned, it soothed my panic.

“You can trust him, you know? He’d never make fun of you or gossip about you.”

I relaxed more as his fingers brushed over my clit, my head dropping back as he moved them in a slow circle.

God, it felt so fucking good.
