My cheeks heat, and my thighs clench at the thought. “Neither can I,” I breathe.
He walks toward me, eyes alight with that dangerous spark. “Stand,” he orders.
I do as he says, standing in front of him.
Oak’s eyes search mine for a moment before he pulls me against him. His lips cover mine as he forces his tongue through my defenses, plundering my mouth with such need it makes my knees weak.
I clutch onto his powerful shoulders, wanting to melt into him.
He stops kissing me, our breathing ragged as he softly murmurs, “Come to mine for dinner tonight.”
I raise a brow. “I’ve got a feeling my friends will notice if I’m not at dinner.”
“Say you aren't hungry and eat a little.” His grip tightens on my hips painfully. “Tell them you’re going to bed early and be at my cottage by eight.”
“Okay,” I breathe.
Oak smiles and kisses me one more time before breaking away. “Now, get to class.”
I nod and turn around.
Only for Oak to spank my ass playfully, making me yelp. “What was that for?”
He leans back against his desk, arms folded over his chest. “Because I felt like it.”
I shake my head but can’t stop the stupid grin that spreads onto my lips as I head toward his door. “See you later,” I say, walking out into the corridor without a glance back.
The only response I get is a soft growl behind me. One that vibrates right to my core and makes me ache for the man behind me.
It’s going to be a very long afternoon.

OAK
I’m not a skilled cook, but people have often complimented me on my lasagne, so that’s what I’ve made for Eva, as well as a large helping of cheesy garlic bread.
It’s crazy that I’m nervous.
This is the first time I’ll be spending time with Eva, outside of a classroom setting or fucking her, even if that’s where I want this night to end. I need to learn more about her, learn if she could want to ruin her parents as badly as I do.
It’s quite clear that I can’t keep my hands to myself when it comes to her. Instead of fighting it, it’s about time I found out if we could become partners in crime and complete my quest for revenge with her by my side.
The only issue is that it means I need to reveal my true intent for her. Before I knew Eva, I had every intention of destroying her, along with her family. It’s not a subject I wish to broach tonight, but over the two-week break with her, I’ll have to come clean.
I glance at the clock, noticing that it’s a quarter past eight. My jaw clenches. Either Eva’s just running late, or they have caught her trying to sneak out of the school. Considering she was often late for discipline class, I’m going to assume it’s the former.
There’s a soft knock at my door sounds and the tension coils through my body. My hands are shaking as I reach for the door handle. I take a deep breath to calm my nerves, but it doesn’t work.
I open the door, and there she is, wearing a beautiful, flowing pale blue dress that ends just below her knees. “You look stunning,” I say before she can speak.
I glance around the vicinity, making sure no one is lurking around. “Come in.” I stand to the side and allow her to sweep past me.
“Whatever you are cooking smells amazing,” Eva says, smiling as she glances at me.
I clench my jaw as a stupid, fleeting notion enters my mind.
I could get used to this.
