Jasper knew that would get her brilliant ass. He knew what he was doing,and he knew she wouldn’t be able to pass up the chance to correct him and make him look like an idiot. Her opinion of him was low. Not that he could really blame her. He chuckled as he replied.
J:Damn. You’re cold. See? I need your help. Pretty please with ice cream on top? One or two sessions to go over the study guide.
“Why are you grinning like that? It’s weird.”
Jasper glanced at Riley before turning back to obsessively watch the three dots appear to show that she was typing again. He hated that he felt a little giddy about it. “I’m trying to get Callahan to agree to tutor me.”
“I thought Blake was tutoring you in that class already?”
“She is.” Jasper met Riley’s eyes. “But you won’t let me fuck Blake again, so I need a different tutor.” Jasper knew the punch was coming, so he braced for it. The bruise it was going to leave on his arm would match the one on the other side from the last time he’d made an inappropriate mate joke.
C:Two sessions, one hour each, at the library.
Hmmm. The library. It was going to be hard to get her to agree to fooling around there, but not impossible. He’d done more with less.
J:One at the library, one at my house? Please. Let merepayyou with someDoorDash.
C:No.
J:Look. You think I’m an asshole, and maybe I deserve that. But I’m not all bad. I live with Blake and my best friend. They’ll be there, and I’m sure Blake would love to do an extra study session before thefinal, she’s in our class too.
Jasper knew Blake would be pissed he was using her to lure Callahan to the house, but desperate times called for desperate measures. He’d buy Blake a present. Maybe a bottle of tequila? Or a butt plug. Once you had two shifters double team you, normal sex had to be boring AF.
C:Fine. One session at the library, one at your house WITH Blake there the whole time. You buy dinner, and you bring me coffee to the library sesh.
“Got her, bro.” Jasper did a little happy dance in his seat.
J:Deal.
Riley sighed, shaking his head slowly as he pulled into the gym parking lot. “I’m torn between high-fiving you or telling you that your antics are reprehensible.”
Jaspershrugged, opening his door andhoppingout. “Well, we both know Blake will high-five me, so if it’ll make you feel better,you can lecture me while we warm up on the treadmill.”Pointedly, heput in his ear pods, letting his best friend know his talking would fall on deaf ears. “While you’re in lecture mode, how would you feel about me buying your mate a butt plug as an ask-for-forgiveness-not-permission gift?”
This time bracing for the punch didn’t help.Rileydrewdown the back of his hand and hit Jasper in the balls.
Hard.
Chapter Three
Jasper
Jasperwas at the library for the first time all semester. He wasn’t a dumbass and he was passing most of his classes with a B-ish. However, English was never his strong suit. Heactually neededtutoring, but Blake had gotten his average up from a D to a C, and he was more than okay with a passing grade.
What he wasn’t okay with was not attempting to get with Callahan. He knew he sounded gross, like a fuck-boy of epic proportions. This was how he looked at it though:his sexcapades had a deadline. One day, he’d meet his girl and they’d settle down and then he’d fuck only her for the rest of time. He was like a dying man at a buffet. Hehad to sample it all before he could only eat steak for the rest of his life. Shifters weren’t like humans. He’d never cheat on his mate, he’d never want anyone else, sexually or otherwise. So, while he could, he was going to live it the fuck up.
Enter classy,repressed little Callahan.
“You’re early.” She came in, all business, set down a laptop, a tablet, and two spiral notebooks. “I was sure you would get lost trying to find the library.”
Jasper smiled, not at all put off by her bristling attitude. “Blake drew me a map.” He scooted her coffee cup closer to her, wanting her to see he hadn’t forgotten. She hadn’t told him what kind, so he’d gone with a latte as a safe bet.
“Blake. That was the blonde you were with at the bar?”
Jasper bit his lips together to keep his growing grin in check. Callahan had noticed he was out with another girl even when she was handing him his ass and attempting to appear unaffected? Noted.
“Blake is my best friend’s girlfriend.” He cleared his throat and pulled out his notes, the ones he’d copied from said blonde.
“Why isn’t she tutoring you then?” Callahan lined up three sharpened pencils in a neat row, then tucked her legs underneath her. She was so tiny she could easily sit in a comfy ball on the narrow library chair. His eyes moved down her body, wanting nothing more than to pluck her from her position andhaveher sit somewhere else.
