Whispers filled my head, but I couldn’t understand what they said. I attempted to distract myself as I searched through the sea of faces, not spotting the one I really wanted to see.
I walked through the school, going to spots where Sebastian and I hung out. My shoulders sagged when I didn’t see him. Sebastian was probably still in the hospital because of his condition. I wasn’t sure how someone could recover after their energy was sucked out. I missed him. I didn’t want to lose another person who made my life better.
Layla’s rotting corpse popped into my mind, making me wince.
Everything Daiman said the other day came to the surface. I was still processing all the information he’d given me. My stupid mind kept playing a sound I heard on TikTok that said,“Denial is a river in Egypt.”I’d rather live in denial and pretend I was still a normal human being . . . who had an appetite to eat boys.
I turned around and headed to my locker. After unlocking it, I opened the door and slipped my messenger bag inside. I gazed at the picture of Sebastian and me. We had huge grins on our faces and looked in love. My chest tightened, and my eyes stung with tears. I squeezed them shut so the tears wouldn’t fall.
God, if you can hear me, please let him be okay. Letusbe okay.
Something banged beside me, making me jump and spin around to come face-to-face with Brad. He rested his elbow on the locker next to mine, caging me in so I couldn’t escape. The corners of his mouth curled into a smirk, and he bit his bottom lip as he raked his eyes over me.
“Saw you at the party the other night,” he said.
I frowned and shrugged a shoulder. “Okay?”
“Saw you go into a bedroom with Alex.” He grinned as he watched me for the reaction he wanted.
My spine straightened, and my heart stopped beating for a second before it galloped. “O-oh?”
Brad brought his gaze back to my face after checking out my breasts. He pulled his bottom lip between his teeth, still smiling. “I didn’t take you for a slut. What would your little boyfriend say if he knew you got on your knees for someone else?”
“Take that back,” I ground out, glaring at him.
Brad snorted. “Or what? You’ll suck my soul out of my cock, too?” He looked me over and raised an eyebrow. “With that body and those dick-sucking lips, I may take you up on your offer.”
I stopped breathing. “What did you say?”
“What? You’re too good to suck my dick?”
“No.” Not that. That wasn’t what I meant, but I didn’t want to say it aloud.
Did he know about me draining Alex and leaving him on the ground like he was a discarded candy wrapper?
Daiman and Lucien’s warning rang through my mind.
Brad’s smirk widened into a grin, and he straightened, dropping his hands to his sides. “No? So, you’re not too good?” He looked over his shoulder, then back at me. “We can go into the janitor’s closet and you can suck me off.”
I flinched and backed away from him to put space between us. Not so he couldn’t hurt me, but so I couldn’t hurt him. My stomach growled and my mouth watered as I contemplated sucking his dick.
“I don’t want to. I don’t know what gave you the impression that I would,” I said, trying to keep calm and not throw myself at him.
“You left Alex pretty weak-kneed. He said you made him keep going, and he couldn’t stop coming.” He bit his bottom lip, his eyes dropping to my mouth, most likely imagining them wrapped around his member. “I’d like to find out if he meant it when he said you gave him the best head he’s ever had.”
Horror drained all color from my skin and widened my eyes. “What else did he tell you?”
Please, god, don’t let him know I consumed his energy.
Brad scoffed while rolling his eyes. “Enough to know that you give good head. Now, are you game or not?”
I shook my head. “No.”
He scowled at me and backed up while throwing his hands up. “Whatever, bitch. I wasn’t going to tell the school about you being a whore, but now I will. Have fun when Father Thomas calls you to his office.”
Dad’s threats from this morning played in my head and nearly knocked me over from the fear coursing through my veins.
Before I could stop him, he walked away and high-fived one of his friends standing nearby. His friend smirked and blew me a kiss before they disappeared into the crowd.
