It was the way they commanded a room, the way everyone had stopped for a second when they saw them. My heart suddenly beat a warning. They seemed to be in a good mood, getting food, making small talk.

But they bled a sense of power and certainty that I knew. These guys were predators.

“See what I mean about eye candy?” Jenna said, because that girl was oblivious to danger.

“Who are they?” I asked.

“Cain, Remington, Pax, and Stellan.” She pointed at each of them in turn, and I sighed under my breath. She was going to draw their attention to us. “Four stars of the school.”

“Really? We’re not in high school anymore.”

“Cain is an amazing quarterback,” she gushed.

Maybe we were still in high school. Maybe high school never really ends.

What a depressing thought.

“Pax and Remington kill it on the soccer field together,” she said. “And Stellan is the captain of the hockey team.”

“Jocks,” I said. “Oh, fantastic. I love jocks.”

I glanced over my shoulder at them again. They were surrounded by girls.

“Everyone loves them,” Jenna added.

“Probably not as much as they love themselves.”

They were trouble.
