“Is ignoring me your new plan?”

I smother the shriek in my throat as I whirl around to face Rogue. He’s standing a couple feet away from me. He’s lethally quiet in his movements, I didn’t even hear him get up.

His arms are crossed on his chest as he stares at me with a menacing glint in his eye. As always, the threat of violence hangs around him, like he’s forever ready for a fight. There’s never a moment of true peace within him. His body is tight, his muscles corded no matter the conversation.

I turn my back to him, taking two books in my hands and placing them on the shelf.

“I’m not ignoring you. I’m just not interested.”

I busy myself with books, grabbing some from the table, setting them on the shelf and repeating the action. I get up on my tiptoes to reach the highest shelf on which I need to set a book by an author named Arnold. Before I can stretch to reach, a hand plucks the book out of mine and comes above me to place it on the top shelf.

Rogue is behind me now, his body pressed against mine. My back is glued to his front. If I’m not mistaken, I can feel the outline of his erection against my lower back.

“Not interested in what?” He growls out above me.

I whirl around. “Not interested in anything to do with you! I’ve had enough of the fights and the arguments and the hate. I give up, alright? You win, just like you wanted. Just like you always do.”

I go to turn back around but his hand shoots out to grip mine, keeping me anchored in place. “Because of a little detention? I thought you’d be tougher to break than that.” He taunts evilly.

“Notjust because of detention, although I certainly don’t take it as casually as you do, you reprobate.” I fight back. “Because not everyone feels the need to go through life fighting everybody. Because I’m tired. Because my scholarship is at risk. Because some of us have more at stake than just a few weeks of detention and no rich daddy waiting in the wings ready to make all our mistakes disappear.”

His hand shoots out before I can blink and wraps around my throat in a death grip. The bottomless pools of his eyes spark with equal measures of boundless fury and desire. He shoves me against the bookshelf, using his wrist to push my head backwards against one of the racks until I meet his glare.

“Anyone ever tell you that your mouth is going to get you in trouble one day?” He grounds out, anger and lust making his deep voice vibrate as he speaks.

“My mom, every single day of my life.” I spit out flippantly.

“Maybe someone should shut you up then.”

The thumb of the hand he has wrapped around my throat parts my lips and shoves into my mouth. I choke as Rogue thrusts his thick digit in and out in a repetitive movement.

“Suck it, Bellamy.”

I clench my thighs at his rough command, arousal pooling into my lower stomach. I shake my head back and forth, saying no. The look in his eye is downright evil as he shoves his thumb deeper into my throat, making me gag again.

"I said, suck."

I do as he says. His pleased groan echoes in the air as I bob my head back and forth.

“Fuck, look at you. So desperate for it.”

My heart stops beating as I hear the sound of the library door opening, followed by Principal Thornton’s voice.

“This is the Mackley Library. We’ve just finished a complete renovation in honor of Richard and Lorraine Mackley – I’m sure you’ve heard, of course – and now we’re prepping for the grand opening at the end of October.”

He keeps talking, clearly giving a guided tour of the grounds to a prospective student and their family.

I release Rogue's thumb and try to distance myself from him but can't because he has me stuck between him and the shelf.

“Let me go.” I whisper hiss at him.

He does the opposite. He shoves my skirt up around my hips before gripping the fabric of my tights above my center.

“Rogue, don’t–”

The sound of him ripping my tights off me thunders loud as a gunshot in the otherwise quiet library.

I’m like a deer in the headlights, frozen in shock. Even my breathing stops as I wait to see if Principal Thornton hears the noise and will discover us.
