“I don’t give a fuck about any of that.” He wraps a hand around my arm. “I told you not to idolise other men in front of me.”
“Does that mean I can idolise them behind your back?” I taunt.
He gives me the stink eye.
I laugh. “Is that a yes?”
“That’s cheating.” His expression darkens. “And you know my rules and my reaction to that.”
Geez. Only the level of Aiden’s possessiveness would consider idolising other men cheating.
Now that I think about it, if Aiden idolises any other woman in front of me, I might flip.
Hell. I dislike the woman he lost his virginity to and he didn’t even speak that highly of her.
I poke him as we continue walking towards our class. “Don’t worry, King. You’re popular, too. Levi is just more approachable.”
He continues glaring at me as I laugh. It’s fun to get on his nerves. It’s almost as if our roles are switching.
Maybe I really need to have a talk with Levi and see if he would tell me anything. I’ll have Astrid there to loosen him up.
God. I’m starting to think with a manipulative mind like Aiden’s.
Down the hall, Silver and Adam walk to class together. She doesn’t have the scarf or the bruise today. She must’ve done a killer makeup job to make it disappear.
Wait. Silver and Adam?
Now that I look closer, they’re not walking together or even talking.
However, their steps are almost in sync.
Wait.
It’s Adam.
He’s a few steps behind her, keeping his footsteps in sync with hers.
It stands out because he’s tall and buff and his steps are usually wide. He wouldn’t walk in moderate, elegant steps like Silver.
The latter is scrolling through her phone, appearing oblivious to her surroundings.
But is she oblivious to Adam’s existence, too?
Although they’re both bullies — Adam more so than Silver — they never struck me as being close. She wouldn’t have testified against him last year if they were.
But maybe I was wrong.
Silver slips inside the class. Adam pauses and meets my gaze.
It’s brief, barely a second, but it’s enough to send chills down my spine.
Stay the fuck away.
I can read it in his eyes even if he says nothing.
Stay away from what? From whom?
He couldn’t have known I noticed the creepy way he hangs around Silver.
