I sit silently still as I count each step of his boots on the stairs. He pushes her door open with a creak and enters. He doesn’t turn on the light. Instead, he walks over to her bed and chooses the lamp. I smile to myself.
“My girl is already ready for me,” he muses, looking over her exposed body. Her chest rising and falling with each breath she inhales through her nose. She hasn’t moved an inch since I brought her home thirty minutes ago. “Oh, I like these.” He reaches out and runs his knuckles over her pierced nipple, and I fist my hands, rage crawling up my spine like a fire engulfs a wall. Reaching up, he grips the back of his shirt and lifts it over his head.
I stand. “She’s no longer for you.”
He spins around, hands up, and gasps. “Easton?” he breathes my first name. I’ve always gone by Sin because it fits my personality. Only my parents call me by my first name. “What the fuck are you doing here?” His brown eyes widen.
“I’m here for her,” I inform him.
He frowns, turning back to Elli. Then looks at me once again. “I don’t understand.”
I step into him. “You are to stay the fuck away from her,” I warn, causing his eyes to narrow.
“I will not…”
“Tomorrow morning, you will drop her from your class.” This son of a bitch sits at his desk while she stands in front of his class reading off her deepest, darkest desires, and then he fucks her in secret. He uses his students, exploits them. Elli isn’t the only student he’s been fucking, and the Lords have found out.
When she was distracted reading over her text messages this morning, I had Jayce get into her backpack on the island and pull out her notebook for class. Everyone knows what goes on inside Mr. Hamilton’s classes, but Barrington University allows it. Like the Lords, it has its own rules.
I saw her texts and made some phone calls of my own after I spoke to my father. That’s why the guys and I showed up during his class. We were to make a point. I was claiming my girl. Guess I should have made him stay and watch what I did to her.
His shoulders stiffen. “Now, Easton—”
I punch him in the face, knocking his head back. “You’ll do what I fucking tell you to do. Otherwise, you’ll lose your fucking job,” I shout, that fire growing again. My skin breaks out in a cold sweat. “And I’ll take her to the cops and have her file a rape charge against you.” His father may be a powerful Lord, but I can still take him down. It’ll just mean I have to get dirty. My father is a Lord too. And the Lords don’t like it when you jeopardize their existence.
He rubs his face, blood running from his nose. Then a smirk appears on his busted lips. “You’ll never be able to prove it.”
“Boys,” I call out. Jayce and Corbin both step out of the dark corner, and he takes a step back. “I’ll do whatever needs to be done to get you the fuck away from her. Even if that means forcing you to fuck her with a gun to your head.” As jealous as I feel over my little demon, I’m nothing but determined to do whatever needs to be done to get him out of her life.
His lips thin, and he growls. “You’re a sick fucking bastard.”
“I can be. It’s up to you how far I’ll go.” I shrug carelessly. There are two guns in Jayce’s backpack right now along with a few knives. I’ll carve him up like a fucking pumpkin before I pump some bullets into his chest and then throw him on the front porch like a Halloween decoration left out to rot.
“I’ve got cameras in my classroom.” His words make my muscles tense. Even though I expected it. “Just last week, she willingly crawled underneath my desk so I could fuck her mouth. No one believes a whore who cries rape.”
I punch him again. This time, his body hits her nightstand, making it rattle, and she stirs, but her eyes remain closed.
“Take him to Barrington,” I order Jayce and Corbin. “Then his house. I want every tape and USB drive.” I turn to face them. “Get me every recording he has. Destroy every laptop, computer, and cell phone.”
“No, wait—” He raises his hands, and I punch him again in the side of his face this time, knocking him to the floor.
I reach out my left hand, and Jayce tosses me his backpack. I catch it and unzip it, pulling out the Glock 19 9mm. I cock it as I crouch down, pushing the end of the barrel to his head, making him whimper. “If I so much as see you look her way, I’ll chop off both of your hands and make you watch me set them on fire so you have no hope of reattaching them.” Pushing the gun farther into his skull, it forces him to roll onto his back. “Making sure you never get the chance to jack your worthless dick off to the thought of her again.”
