Mazen’s hands tightened into fists when Lola just giggled and winked at him. I didn’t know how, but I could just tell Mazen wasn’t supposed to be with Lola. We were bonded to someone and if that someone wasn’t here, they’d get here soon. Mazen and Lola weren’t supposed to be together.
I’d never say that to him because he thought they were. Professor Gefn advised Lola to try again the next waning moon and launched into her next lesson. This one didn’t involve magic rocks. We were learning transmutation. She wanted us to turn an orange into an apple.
It was harder than it looked. Khalid was the only one who managed it. Mine exploded. Liam got frustrated and bounced his off Adrian’s face. Lucian was furious because he was used to being good at everything.
“Practice!” Professor Gefn said. “I expect you to have this down by your next class. Ivar, can your group stay after class?”
We left and went to potions. I could tell Liam was irritated with Lola. She was flirting again, and he said she kept getting herbs wrong and nearly ruined his potion.
We were brewing a sleeping draught this time. It was supposed to be like a weak tonic we could add a few drops to tea or warm milk if we couldn’t sleep. I hadn’t really had that problem since Lucian started sneaking into my bed, but I could see where it might be needed.
I liked potions. Professor Thornheart was a brilliant teacher, even if he was a little prickly. We all successfully made our potions again except for Lola. Professor Thornheart peered down his nose at the sticky green mess in her cauldron and then looked at Liam.
“I suggest you tutor your lab partner if you want to pass my class.”
Liam was furious. He grabbed my hand and stormed out of class, but he took a detour and shoved me into an empty classroom.
“Sorry, Lola is infuriating. She kept touching my leg way too close to my dick. Itoldher that was catmint, not lavender. Even if they look the same, they don’tsmellthe same. She tried to drop some in my cauldron, so I pretended to sneeze and elbowed her in the tit because I didn’t know what else to do. I’m stuck with her for the rest of the year.”
“Is there anything I can do?” I asked, wrapping my arms around his waist.
We had a two-hour break to eat lunch and study. I knew what Iwantedto do, especially now that I knew my birth control spell worked. Liam grinned.
“Yeah, when I said I couldn’t call you my girlfriend yet, you said something about a conversation. If you’re mine, I want to hear you say it.”
I stood on my tip toes and bit his ear.
“I’m yours. Why don’t I show you on that teacher’s desk?”
“Sage, I would behonoredto defile that desk with you,” Liam growled.
University wasn’t supposed to be in the cards for me, but here I was, getting an education and having a major fantasy on my bingo card unlocked. Sage hadlayers.I just wanted to hear her say she was mine because getting sexually harassed by Lola was uncomfortable. My kinky little Phantom Queen went a step further and wanted to fuck on the teacher’s desk.
Was it too soon to say I was truly, madly, deeply in love?
Did Sageknowbetween the shifters, vampires, succubae, incubi, and various fertility gods beside me here that everyonewas going to know someone had been thoroughly fucked in his classroom?
Sage swept everything off the desk like in the movies, pulled her knickers off, hiked her skirt up, and presented herself on the desk like it was my fucking birthday. Yeah, she didn’t careat allif someone found out.
I wanted to taste her again. I could almost imagine what Lucian felt like around blood because I felt that way with Sage’s clit in my mouth. Should I get my tongue pierced, too? Maybe I should wait until she said for sure she liked my dick piercing first. I hadn’t had any complaints so far.
I buried my face between Sage’s thighs and devoured her. I loved that she was so responsive. She was already soaking wet before my tongue even touched her skin. Sage was at least trying to be quiet this time. She had her hand stuffed in her mouth and was biting down. I loved that I had that effect on her.
I slid two fingers inside her and crooked them up to rub her G spot. Sage collapsed on her back and her free hand snaked into my hair to pull me closer. Shite, if these horns ever grew in, I’d have head handle bars for her to hold on to. At least something good would come from it.
I smiled when she shattered on my tongue. I sat back in the desk chair immensely please with myself, but Sage wasn’t done with me yet.
“Liam, you can’t whip your dick out in my dorm room with a piercing and not show me what it feels like.”
Oh, fuck yes. I hoped I didn’t blow too early, and she thought I was shite at sex. It couldn’t be as bad as Khalid’s jackal trying to bite her and him flying across the bathroom like his nut hair was on fire, right?
Sliding into her was perfection. I rested my forehead on hers to take a minute.
“There’s just something about being near you. I don’t know if I can control myself.”
“So, don’t. I’m not a delicate flower. If I don’t like it, I’ll tell you to stop. I trust you.”
No one ever trusted me. Came with the territory being born in the Irish Mafia. They preached loyalty, but they were always prepared for anyone and everyone stabbing you in the back. It was nice. And she was totally right. I worshipped this girl. If she didn’t like what I was doing and I could stop it, I would.
