Why couldn’t I just have them all? I didn’t want to wreck what we had, but I couldn’t stop myself.

“Who do you like out of them?” Diane hissed, clearly wanting to know who I had my eyes on to give her the upper hand.

I just sighed as Chumley flipped Bug over his shoulder and rested my chin on my hands.

“All of them.”

Combat class ended, and we were sweaty messes in need of a shower before spending the afternoon doing what we wanted.

Well. I was sweaty.

Chumley and Bug looked like the class hadn’t bothered them in the slightest.

“Why aren’t you guys sweaty?” I muttered as they kept in step with me.

“Hellhounds don’t sweat,” Chumley stated.

“Born of fire, doesn’t mix well with sweat,” Bug chuckled.

Right. Of course.

“Anyways, I’ll come by in about an hour, got some things to do,” Bug stated as he veered off.

My chest fluttered at that. Considering he hadn’t headed down our hall which had our rooms, could only mean he was off to prepare for our picnic.

“Hey, now that we’re alone, I wanted to ask you something,” Chumley said as he gave me a charming smile.

God, what was with these guys making me swoon so easily? They barely had to try.

“Yeah?”

“Would you like to catch a movie in the cinema with me after dinner?”

“Um, sure,” I said with a shrug.

“Awesome, it’s a date.”

I stiffened as he said that, my stomach flip-flopping all over the place as he beamed at me.

I hadn’t thought it was a date request. Crap. What was I getting myself into?

But the delight on his face destroyed any chance of a response from me.

That and the strangely familiar yet different scent that had just hit my nose.

I turned to face the foyer as we stepped out of the hall, and spied a handful of men at the front door talking with Dezikiel.

One was standing to the side, looking quite bored as he surveyed the room.

When his dark brown eyes met mine, he smirked.

A strange shiver coursed through me, and I came to a halt with Chumley.

“Everything okay?” Chum asked, but his gaze followed mine and he frowned. “They must be dropping off a new student, demonics that work with the High Council. No angel with them this time. They rarely do any of the grunt work,” he grumbled.

I stared at the younger guy with his backpack. He looked to be only a year or two older than me.

And I knew immediately what he was.
