Chapter 9

Reverie

Heading into class, I saw Chloe waving at me from the middle row. As I made my way over, I glanced to the front of the class and noticed a tall Asian man staring at me.

Jet leaned down and whispered in my ear, “That’s Professor Lee. He was a Major in the war because of his ability.”

Trying to hide my shiver in response to his warm breath in my ear, I asked, “What’s his power?”

“He’s a precog specializing in strategy,” Jet told me. “I think the war would have ended differently if he had joined sooner.”

“Why didn’t he?” I moved over slightly. If he whispered that close to my ear again, I might embarrass myself.

“He didn’t find his Faction until several years after it started. By the time he mastered his power, the war was almost over. It’s said that he is the one who told the General they needed to leave our world and travel to this dimension.” Jet told me.

The events of the day had apparently frazzled my mind. “Mom did mention him. He was friends with my dad Sly back in the day.” I tilted my head in thought, “She told me he’d written a note and gave it to them, to put in a safe place.” I stopped talking. Why did I just tell him that? I’d only met him recently and he sure as hell didn’t need to know things about my family. Also, why did he know so much about their history being a found Passive?

“That’s interesting,” Jet smiled slightly and flashed that damn dimple again. “When I discovered I was Aurathion, I studied everything I could get my hands on so I wouldn’t show up to Emberhold completely ignorant. But, if I need any help, I’m coming to you, it sounds like your parents are exceptionally knowledgeable.”

“I’d be glad to help.” Nope, I was going to avoid this guy. I had enough on my plate with Nathan and the twins. I wasn’t ready to admit Jet was most likely my Faction, too. Reaching Chloe, I sat down and tried to recenter. The day had been a cluster fuck, and it wasn’t even lunch yet. Jet started to sit beside me until Nathan cleared his throat loudly. I thought for a moment Jet was going to ignore him, but he took a seat next to Chloe.

Sitting beside me, Nathan grumbled, “Jolly and I are going to have a little talk when we get back to our dorm.”

I rolled my eyes, “He was just telling me about our professor. No need to get pissy.”

Nathan slid his hand under my desktop and palmed the crotch of my jeans. I could feel the warmth of his hand through the denim, and my panties dampened immediately.

“I saw him flash that fucking dimple again, so don’t give me that.”I heard his deep voice in my head

“It seems that you’re the one getting pissy. You seem a little tense after everything that’s happened today. Do you need me to relax you?”

“No, I do not!”I looked around the classroom, but everyone was listening to the professor review the syllabus. Nathan was facing forward, doing an excellent job of pretending he was paying attention—the reprobate. The bottom of my shirt was covering what he was doing with his hand.

I grabbed his arm and tried to pull it away from me but, I couldn’t budge it. Then I didn’t want to. He was rubbing the seam of my jeans right over my clit, and it felt amazing. Even though I was sure my face was glowing red, and I was scared someone would see what he was doing to me (thank God Chloe was a good student), it felt too good to make him stop, I wasn’t entirely sure that was even possible. His firm but small movements kept us from being seen but I needed more. I leaned closer to him so he would have better access.

“Open those beautiful eyes, my Nexi. You don’t want anyone to guess what’s going on.”He whispered in a voice that had me obeying instantly. I opened my eyes but couldn’t comprehend anything the professor was saying. I felt myself getting wetter and knew Nathan could feel it through the denim. He slid his hand up higher and undid my jeans, sliding his fingers into my pants.

“So wet, my naughty Nexi,”he moaned, then started rubbing my clit gently with his thumb. He used just enough pressure to keep stoking the burn even higher without letting me tumble off the edge. If this was his way of relaxing me, he was doing a pisspoor job of it. I didn’t know how much more I could take and feeling the trembling of his thigh, that I was gripping with my hand, I wondered if he felt the same. Just when I thought the pleasure couldn’t get more intense, he suddenly plunged two of his fingers deep inside me. It was almost too much—the things my Psycho did to me.

My breathing became labored, and I was desperately trying not to close my eyes in pleasure. Being able to feel how turned on Nathan was on top of mine own desire was profound. He sped up the motion plunging his fingers in and out as he started rubbing my clit faster. I whispered his name not having the concentration to communicate mentally, I heard Nathan give a low moan. At that moment, I knew I was going to come. I rolled my head to the left and was suddenly caught in Jet’s molten gaze. Everything became too much, and I couldn’t hold back any longer. I closed my eyes, and my toes curled as the intense orgasm washed over me. Just when I thought it was over, Nathan groaned, pumping his fingers faster, and I experienced his pleasure, which threw me into a second orgasm.

I felt Nathan move his hand from under my shirt. Opening my eyes, I saw him licking his fingers clean.

“Pure sweetness.”He had to be one of the sexiest men on earth, my lips parted slightly, and I took a calming breath; he leaned over and kissed me gently.“Now my Nexi should be in a better mood. I know I am.”I glanced down and saw a massive wet spot on Nathan’s jeans.

“Shit, how are we getting out of here without anybody seeing that.”

Nathan glanced down and then over at me, “I don’t give a damn who sees. It’s like a badge of honor, showing how desirable my Nexi is.”

I heard nothing the professor said for the rest of class. This man was unbelievable, and he was all mine. What was I going todo with three of them? Maybe, I’d be the most satisfied Nexus on earth. I smiled dreamily at the thought.

True to his word, when class was over, Nathan casually got up, took my hand, and headed to the cafeteria for lunch. I avoided looking at Jet because I knew my skin was still glowing. Partly in embarrassment and partly in satisfaction.

“Hey, wait for your bestie!” Chloe yelled, running to catch up.

“If she keeps calling you her bestie, I’m going to need a little hand action in our next class to relieve my stress,” Nathan scowled in Chloe’s direction.

I rolled my eyes but was too relaxed to respond. Chloe pulled even with us,
