Oh. That. Ya, I noticed too, but I was hoping the guys didn’t somehow. Considering Jay is a wolf, that was a pretty low chance.
“I think she wants some space. Nothing to worry about. She’s an adult, we are not her keepers.” I try to come across confident but I’m not sure I hit the mark. Either way, this conversation is over.
“I have class!” Anna yells from upstairs and we all look around. I hope she didn’t hear us, not that we said anything wrong but I don’t want her to feel like a prisoner.
“Who’s going today?” I ask.
“Jer and I are going with you and Anna. The rest are staying here to work more on our plan,” Jay says, standing up and stretching out.
“Great, let’s go.”
We all head out and walk to campus, on our way to one of Anna’s English classes when I see the asshole from the bar. The one who rubbed himself all over my best friend.
He’s different in the daylight. Less confident, shakier and quiet, with a large band-aid on his neck. He’s with friends, but he’s not really talking.
Maybe he only has confidence when he drinks. That boy needs to give it up because no one wants that kind of confidence.
I know Jeremy and Jay see him too when I stare too long. They follow my gaze and lock in on the kid.
“Be back,” Jeremy mutters.
I’m sure he’s been dying to teach this kid a lesson but on campus probably isn’t the best spot.
I grab his arm as he steps away, and he looks down at me, baffled.
“We are supposed to be discreet. You can’t go beat on him now. There are people everywhere,” I say.
Jeremy looks like he wants to anyway. I turn to Jay for support but his face is just as fierce. I love these guys and the fact they’re defensive of Anna, but they need to put their anger to the side and be smart.
Luckily for us, and him, the kid turns to see who’s glaring death at him. As soon as he sees us, he turns and literally runs away. Like drops his bag and sprints in the other direction. It’s unnatural how fast he got out of here.
What the hell? He didn’t even see the guys at the bar and if he did, he shouldn’t remember them after Nic’s spell so what was that about?
“What just happened?” I ask.
“The punk avoided a beating,” Jeremy says, anger lacing his tone.
“But why?” Jay voices my exact question.
I think it hits Jeremy that he shouldn’t remember us. It doesn’t make sense.
“You guys were looking at him like you wanted to eat his insides,” I try but that doesn’t ring quite true.
I’m forgetting how intimidating these guys can be. I don’t see them that way but other people might.
“Whatever,” Anna interrupts, I forgot she was here. She’s been so quiet. “I need to get to class, come on.”
She starts walking away, and we have no choice but to follow her. I don’t have a great feeling about what happened though.
What’s wrong?Nic asks down the pack bond.
I’m sure they can feel my unease and confusion through our mating link. They probably hate being out of the loop back at the house.
I’m not going to worry them with this. We have bigger things to worry about than a weird interaction on campus.
Nothing, just campus stuff. No need to worry.
I can feel them all settle at that and I think I made the right decision.
