A chuckle from outside the door is heard, and being the nosiest person I know, Felicia walks over to see who's chuckling. She gasps as she looks out into the hallway, and I grin at Dani. My friend immediately knows what the big deal is, and her eyes widen.

“You did not bring them here!” Dani mouths to me, and I shrug before looking over toward the doorway.

“Did you come with a Sinner?” Felicia looks as though she may faint, so I take it a bit further to really get her going.

Grinning, I wiggle my brows, “Actually, I came with a few of them...multiple times.”

The Sorority President scrunches her face, not understanding my meaning, but it doesn't last long. There's a louder gasp once she catches on, “You didn't!”

“Don't ask if you don't want to know.” I shrug. I feel Dani slap my leg, “What? She asked. I was recently told that I'm a lousy liar, so I told the truth.”

The chuckling from outside has turned into full-blown laughter, which only fuels Felicia's temper, “You know the rules, Miss Scott! No fraternizing with the Sinners!”

“Uh, yeah, about that. You see, I recently learned that the rule was made up by a Sorority Sister not too long ago. My father, you know, the Provost...he was a Lord of Sin back in his day, and as you well know, my mother was the Saint's President. That rule didn't apply back then. Oh, and you should also know that I'm with the Lords per my father's order because they are helping me.”

“W-Well,” she stutters, “I can still give you a strike for not following the House Rules. After three strikes, then I can terminate your residency with the Saints.”

I walk over to her, slowly, “You do know that to kick me out, it's got to go through certain channels, and they have to approve it.”

“Yeah, so.” Felicia now crosses her arms, looking all smug.

“It goes through eight people, and I can name at least four last names.” Counting them off with my fingers, I give Felicia my own smug look, “Harris, Scott, Morin, and Pelletier. Oh, and all four were Lords back in their day.”

Jett barges into the conversation, “Actually, all six board members were Lords back in their day.”

“No, that can't be!” Felicia stomps her foot, “That's unfair!”

“What's unfair is for you to tell us who we can and cannot associate with,” I glare at her, “I don't know who made up this rule, but it's ridiculous!”

Felicia throws her nose in the air, “My Aunt Charlotte's best friend was the Saint's Sorority President three years after my mother graduated, and she put the rule in place.”

“Why?”

“The heck if I know, but it's a rule nonetheless, and rules must be followed!” she states.

“Yeah, well, rules are also meant to be broken...”

Felecia stares disbelievingly at me, then snaps her fingers, and our other Sorority Sister jumps up and follows her as Felicia starts walking down the hall toward the elevator. “Bye, Felicia!” I call out and snicker.

“You are so bad!” Dani laughs from the bed, causing her to go into a coughing fit.

I retake my seat on the edge of the bed, “Someone needed to put her in her place.”

“You realize she will come at you with everything she's got. She will try her hardest to have you removed from the house,” my friend says but grins about it.

“Let her try...”

“It doesn't matter because you will be coming to stay with us,” Jett states from the doorway.

Dani and I both drop our jaws, “I'm what?!”

“You heard me, Lina,” he holds his phone out to me, “Per Mr. Harris and Mr. Scott, Catalina Scott is to reside with the Lords of Sin until any and all threats are taken care of.”

I'm at a loss for words at first, but then the anger starts to set in, and once again, my life is being dictated. I look Jett in the eye and glaringly state, “The hell I am!”
