“Probably,” he finally says.
“So, we have a deal?”
“Sure, we have a deal.” His eyes basically gleam with excitement. I’m sure he is already conjuring up all kinds of things in his mind.
“What deal?” Warren cuts in, appearing out of nowhere. His eyes glitter with mischief, and he grins at me. When I look up and over his shoulder, I notice Nate strolling behind Warren. Great, the gang is complete. Blackthorn’s elite douchebag club.
“I’m going to allow Willow to stay here for now, in exchange for her… well, her body,” Parker snickers.
“Sounds like a great deal,” Nate chimes in. Reaching out for me, his knuckles graze my cheek. A coldness sweeps through me at his touch. “Think maybe I can get in on this deal?”
I turn my face away from him, hoping to get out of his reach, but before I can move more than an inch, Parker grabs on to Nate’s wrist and shoves it away. “You’re not part of this. Don’t touch what is mine,” he growls, and the warning is clear.
“Fine, be a prude. I would have been happy to share,” Nate grins and steps back. “Let’s go in before we miss the whole class.”
Warren nods and opens the door. I wait for Parker to move out of my way, so we can go too, but instead, he grabs my arm and pulls me in the other direction. My feet drag across the floor as I try and root them into the concrete.
“What are you doing?” I choke out, surprised by his actions.
“We’re leaving.”
“What? To go where?”
“My place,” he says, matter of factly.
“Right now?” I should be surprised, but I’m still shocked that it’s going to happen so fast. I just decided I was going to do this thirty-minutes ago, and now it’s happening.
“I’ve already missed the last class, I need to be there.”
“Don’t worry about that class. You’ll get an A either way. It’s graded by groups, remember.” Of course, I’m still part of his group, and naturally, he gets an A, no matter what he does.
He pulls me all the way to the parking lot behind the building. With my much shorter legs, I have a hard time keeping up with his speed, but somehow, manage without tripping. When we get to some expensive-looking sports car, he unlocks the door and opens it for me. Shoving me in the passenger seat, he orders me to buckle up before sprinting around the car and getting into the driver’s seat.
What a gentleman.
Apparently, he can’t get me to his place fast enough, because as soon as the engine roars to life, we are speeding out of the parking lot. I don’t know if I should be scared or flattered by his urgency to get me into bed.
As we drive to his place, I memorize the way just in case I have to walk back to campus. Luckily, the drive only takes five minutes, which means I could walk home, and it wouldn’t take me, but half an hour. I’m paranoid, I know, but I’m not going into this situation blind.
I’m surprised when we pull up to a modern but small home. I was expecting something more like a mansion. He parks in the driveway and cuts the engine.
“Come on,” he orders as he gets out.
“Sure, but only since you asked so nicely,” I say under my breath while getting out of the car. He is already unlocking the front door when I come up behind him. As I follow him inside, the reality of what I’m about to do sets in. He closes the door behind us, and I start to shake slightly.
“Don’t look so scared. You’re the one who made the offer. If you don’t want this, turn around and walk away. Just know I won’t let you make me another offer.”
I glance at the door, knowing damn well that I can’t leave. If I do, Ashton won’t get the care she needs, my father will make my life hell. I think about what he said. Sex is only what you make of it. It doesn’t have to mean anything. Who cares that he’ll be my first? No one has to know, not even him.
“No, I want to stay.”
Parker smiles so widely his dimples deepen like I’ve never seen before. “Great, come with me then.”
He leads me into the living room, and though I don’t mean too, I openly gawk at my surroundings. Just like the outside, the decor inside is modern and clean with a black and gray color scheme. It fits Parker very much.
My gaze skirts from the décor to Parker, who moves like a panther, taking a seat on the black leather couch, looking smug as ever. Resting his arms on the back of the couch, he pins me with his punishing gaze while I just stand there in front of him, unsure of what to do next.
