“Wow, wow, wow, absolutely not.” I fold my arms, staring them down.
“Why else would we come here?” Nathan says.
“Yeah, why?”
“To protect you,” Kai replies. “In case those Bones Brotherhood fuckers show up on the campus grounds.”
I snort. “You think they would?”
“Definitely,” Nathan answers, showing off his knives before tucking them into his pocket. “It’s better if you’re not alone.”
“I’m not letting you go to class by yourself,” Kai says, gripping the doorjamb.
I don’t think I’ll win an argument against these guys, let alone a fight. They’ve already made that point clear.
I roll my eyes. “Fine.”
“Yay.” Milo jumps forward and steals my bag, stuffing an extra mystery box inside.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
“Food. You need more; I got it.” He winks. “Sushi.”
“Thanks, I guess?”
“If you tell me your favorite, I’ll make it for you every day,” he muses, handing me back my bag.
Now it’s really hard to say no to all this pampering.
Behind me, two girls gasp in shock, and when I look over my shoulder, both Irina and Brooke are giggling their asses off like they’re seeing celebrities.
I sigh out loud and march out the front door. “All right, fine. Let’s go.”
They follow me around campus as I head to my first class, hovering behind me like some kind of bodyguards, scaring away anyone who even dares to throw a glance at me, and it kind of freaks me out.
So I stop midway there and spin on my heels. “Stop.”
Nathan’s brow rises. “What?”
“Stop glaring at everyone I pass. I’m not trying to make more enemies.”
“They might be,” Nathan retorts.
“Not everyone is out there to get us,” I say.
“He’s just protective.” Kai interjects.
“Oh, so another clone of you,” I spit, throwing him a narrowed-eye glare.
Which he throws right back at me.
“Lana. Be nice.”
That motherfucker … using my own words against me?
I lift my top lip, showing off my teeth like a goddamn hissy cat.
But all it does is make him smile in such a deadly way, and I mean the heart-murdering kind. “You’re cute when you’re angry.”
