A bunch ofooooscirculate around the class as they witness her rejection of me.

“You heard me.This isn’t the place for you; you need to leave.”Her cheeks are ruddy with what I believe is embarrassment because she doesn’t sound angry, she just doesn’t like the attention.

“My place is wherever you are,” I grunt and sit down.Dragging her chair closer to me, I wrap an arm around the back and mutter in her ear so only she hears me, “If I leave, it’s with you over my shoulder, and we’re going to my place, where I will fuck you into complacency.Got it?”

Her eyes flare and narrow on me, the pupils dilating, and she squirms in her seat.She’s not nearly as unaffected as she’s been leading me to believe.

Leaning against Odette’s locker after the last bell, her petite body storming its way closer to me, I grin as she flattens her textbook against my chest, giving me the chance to either catch it or drop it on my feet.

“Throw all the fits you want, I’m not going anywhere, Odette.Today is only the beginning.”I’m not sure if I antagonize her because she gets flushed when she’s mad at me or because I want her to see she can stand up for herself.Either way, it works in my favor.

“Go to hell, Malice.”Slamming the locker shut, she rips the textbook out of my hands and storms away.I follow along behind her, glaring at anyone who dares look at her—especially the guys.

Odette doesn’t see it, but the boys here want her in their bed almost as badly as I do.The trouble is, they have no fucking clue how to talk to a girl like her.She’s better than them, better than this fucking place, and they all know it.

Odette is in a class of her own.Beautiful, intelligent, classy, compassionate, she has everything a man wants.The best part is that she doesn’t even realize it.

“Oh,Oddette!”A female voice captures my attention and causes my girl to tense in a way that doesn’t sit right with me as we reach the end of the hallway.

Being a dozen or so steps behind her, I can’t identify who it is until a hand snakes out and wrenches Odette to the side with a fistful of loose hair.

I wait around the corner, listening, as the girl says to her, “I hear you’ve gone slutting it up with the new guy.”She laughs like it’s a funny comment.“Don’t you know I get to test-ride the new guys first?You can have my sloppy seconds.Besides, you still owe Steve a ride between your thighs.He missed out the other night.”

“Let me go, Margo.”Odette doesn’t sound scared, more bored, or annoyed to have her day interrupted.Shecanfight back, she just doesn’t, and I’m curious as to why.

“Come on, you know you want his big dick popping your cherry.You’d like it rough, I bet.You want him to hurt you, don’t you?That’s why you fight back.”

I’ve heard enough.Rounding the corner, I grab the bitch by her throat and slam her up against the wall beside Odette.“You talking about having my girl raped?”I growl in her ear.Odette’s eyes widen with surprise.She remains stubbornly quiet.“You the reason Odette came home beat up last night?”

She appears bewildered.“Home?”

“Yeah, I’ve been saying it all day long, but no one seems to be listening to me.Odette is mine.My girl, my little rabbit, my sweet, sexy princess who has remained tight-lipped about the fucking assholes who have been tormenting her, but I’ve got you now.”Hissing in her ear, I reach over and brush a finger down Odette’s cheek gently; she leans into the touch and my dick twitches.“I see you for the monster you are, and you’ll pay.”

Letting the bully go, I reach out a hand for Odette.“I told you I’d take care of them for you, rabbit.”With a shaking hand, she accepts my offer, and I pull her into my side, making it clear to anyone watching that she belongs to me as I cover her mouth with mine.

Inhaling her sweet scent, I cup her chin and tilt her head up for easier access.My heart thunders in my chest as she matches me in intensity.“Ready to go home, rabbit?”Her head nods briefly, and I take her out to my BMW, where I drive her back to my loft instead of her house.

I have every intention of showing her just how well I can take care of her.

“This isn’t the way home,” Odette comments after about ten minutes of silence.

“Yes, it is.”She’s a smart girl, she’ll figure it out soon enough.

She huffs, and I glance at her in time to see the eye roll.“Not tomyhome.”The glare she sends my way should likely send me straight to hell, but I can’t help but be turned on by it.

“Where’s this fire in school?”I ask the burning question.“You sure don’t spit like this at anyone else.Ever.”Not even at home when I can sense she wants to fight with Carmine after he tells her what to do.

“What’s the point?”she finally responds.

“The point?”I snicker.“The point is so people don’t fuck with you.The point is so little cunts like Margo don’t try and have you gang raped.”How does she not get that?

“You’re crude, Malice.”

“Am I, though?”Stopped at a red light, I turn to face her.“You’re suffering through this bullshit for what fucking reason, Odette?What’s the point?”Fuck, she infuriates me sometimes.

The light turns green, and I slam on the pedal a little harder than necessary.She doesn’t say a damn thing as we arrive at my place, her attention solely on the bookstore next to it and the bakery nestled in between the two.
