Page 48 of The Revenge You Seek

"Shut your face," he mutters, shooting me a cocky wink.

"Oh yeah, you fit right in with these assholes."

"You love me really, Sis." He nods before ducking back into the house. "Enjoying your new pets?" I ask Luca with a smirk.

"Nah, they love it. Makes them feel special."

"You're a dick. Aren't you supposed to be all fatherly and supportive of the new guys?"

"I am, I'm effectively teaching them how to respect their elders."

The rest of the team laugh, sharing a private joke and I can't help but wonder what else they've got their new freshman to do in the first week of the semester.

"Shame we can't get that other asshole freshman to kiss our fucking shoes," Colt barks, and Luca, Leon, and I all tense at the mention of Kane.

"That fuck is going to get what's coming to him. Don't worry."

"Luca," I warn. "You promised me you'd stay away."

"Don't worry, babe. Everything is under control."

A shiver races down my spine as he squeezes my thigh in an attempt to reassure me. It does nothing to make me feel better about the situation.

I take a sip of the drink Zayn brought me and force myself to trust that Luca knows what he's doing.

He's not starting quarterback for the Panthers for nothing and I have to believe he has his head screwed on when dealing with Kane.

"Guys, I'm out. I love you and all but I need some fucking pussy," Colt announces a few minutes later.

"Dude, girl present," someone barks.

"A girl who's more than used to Luca and Leon. I'm sure she can cope."

"I've heard worse. Any of you guys know Harrow Creek?"

A few shake their heads, but a couple of them nod.

"Isn't that where K—"

"Yeah, I'm a Creek girl. Trust me, nothing you can say would shock me," I say in a rush before that name drops from Evan's lips.

He turns to the guys who have no idea about the Creek's reputation. "What she means is, don't mess with her. She's a badass."

A few look impressed, others couldn't care less.

"Come dance with me," Leon breathes in my ear, and I spin to take him in.

"Wouldn't you rather gofind some pussy?" I drop the tone of my voice to mimic the guys.

A smile twitches at his lips.

"When I could dance with you instead? Never."

"Aw, you're too sweet."

Luca makes a gagging sound behind me.

"Anyone ever told you that you should have been born with a pussy?"
