“Touch Addilyn again,” I hissed before she could answer, crowding in close enough he pressed his back against the wall of lockers, “and I’ll fucking kill you.”
“You can’t threaten him like that, Gideon!” Addilyn backhanded my arm. “Leave him alone!”
“See you tomorrow?” Devon asked again while peering around me, ignoring me like I wasn’t all up in his face. Ballsy bastard.
“Of course,” Addilyn agreed.
“Best heed my warning,” I said, my finger in his face. I wanted to rip his goddamn eyes out.
Devon finally met my glare, holding it in unmoved complacency.
He wouldn’t throw a first punch, so what could I do but step back?
“I mean it, Devon. One hair on her head, and I’ll make you curse your mother for bringing you into this world.”
He hesitated but decided to continue on, sauntering off like he owned the goddamn school. With the crowd breaking up around us, I turned back to Addilyn.
“Fuck off, Gideon,” she grumbled at me as I hovered the same way Devon had. She grabbed a book and binder out of her locker, shoved another inside, and slammed the door. Those big blue eyes of hers looked my way, and pink fused her cheeks. “Don’t you have anything better to do than lurk like an unwanted shadow tossing out death threats?” She snipped, that chin of hers lifting and tempting my hands to hold it. Feel the throb of her pulse. Squeeze until her lips parted.
My dick twitched.
“Lifting your chin like that leaves your neck vulnerable, princess, and to answer your question, nope. There’s nothing bullshit about my promises. He touches you, he dies.”
Smart girl lowered her head a bit as though afraid I might bite the tender flesh beneath her ear like I wanted to. “I told you, he’s going to be my first kiss—and I’m getting it tomorrow night whether you like that fact or not, Gideon Destil.”
I growled like a goddamn dog, showing my teeth. Ever since I’d held her and she’d cried, soaking my shirt with her tears, all thoughts of anyone else but me putting their hands on her brought out my inner caveman. She made me fucking nuts—like an animal operating on instinct, wanting to take without asking.
But I wasn’t my dad.
Addilyn rolled her eyes. “Whatever. Can’t you just leave me alone?”
“You’ll thank me some day,” I stated through gritted teeth, goddamn hard up to change our unfair, fucked situation.
“Doubtful.” She waved her hand at the sea of bodies around us. “Why don’t you go out? Make friends finally. Find a girlfriend or two.”
“Not interested.”
“Why not? Every girl in this school, teachers too from what I hear, wants you. Easy pickings to get your…your dick wet,” she said, her voice going all soft at the end.
I held her steady gaze, a smirk lifting my lips. “Not interested, princess.”
Not in them, anyway.
She shivered and clutched her books to her tits. “You’re a creep, you know that?”
“Yep.”
“Why are you always up my butt, huh? Why can’t you ignore me here like you do at home?”
Up. Her. Butt.
Fuck.
I couldn’t find the fucking words to toss back, and she walked away with a huff, leaving me with a boner that required a pit stop at the bathroom which made me late for class.
Without an invitation and expecting I’d be sheriff-escorted off the property if I showed up at Devon’s, I decided to throw a wrench in her and Jenny’s plans instead.
Dinner Friday night.
