Lycus turned to me and pointed at the table. “Sit, and finish eating. They mess with you, fucking tell me,” he said, and I shrank back down in my seat. Lycus walked out, and I prepared to run the moment he left. Zac got up, and I tensed, grabbing my fork to use as a weapon if needed.
“Fucking bullshit,” Zac sneered before leaving.
“Where are you going?” Satish asked him.
“To look for Deacon,” Zac called out over his shoulder.
It took me a good five minutes of glancing around only to realize no one approached me; they stared but didn’t come over. I ate cautiously while looking around until the bell rang, too scared to move until they were gone. I was sure no one was coming to hurt me. Carefully wrapping up my leftovers, I stuck my head out the door before rushing into the cells to give Ryze some food.
Chapter 47
Tobias
Something was going onwith Lycus because he never missed breakfast. Where did he have to go that was more important than our morning ritual? I waited for around five minutes before leaving to look for him.
Yet the bond led me to the mess hall. Walking to the door, I noticed he was eating with Aleera.Now, that was new. Lycus hated being around her. Moving away from the entry, I waited for him to come out.Great, he was eating with Aleera when he should be sucking my dick.
I growled because this hard-on was becoming annoying, and Darius wanted to check the wards, so he couldn’t help me out with it. Not only that, I preferred Lycus’s warm mouth. The man was like a vacuum. Kalen was in a damn mood from when Aleera walked out the door, so he was out of the question unless I wanted my dick bitten off. So, I had no choice but to wait for Lycus.
I sat on the stairs waiting, bored out of my fucking mind when I heard him become angry and scold all the men in the mess hall.Eventually, he stormed out while muttering under his breath, and I stood up.
“Finally,” I whined, and he stopped looking over at me.
“What are you doing here?” he asked, turning away from the doors leading outside and facing me.
“More like what were you doing eating with Aleera? I thought you said you were just grabbing something, not actually eating with her,” I growled at him.
“She has been starving. They haven’t been letting her eat,” Lycus growled, and I looked toward the door. My brows furrowed.
“What do you mean?” I asked though I had seen she was dropping weight and her iron was low.
“Do you ever bother to open that damn chat link?” Lycus snapped.
I shook my head, wondering what he was talking about.
“I deleted it before Kalen saw, but they have been forcing her to starve. That is just plain cruel,” Lycus snarled.
“Who has?”
Lycus tossed his arms in the air, frustrated, and stormed off.
“‘Wait, I came looking for you for a reason,” I called after him.
“Suck your own dick,” Lycus called, and I growled, annoyed.What is it with everyone today?
I pulled my phone out with a sigh as the siren blared, signaling the start of classes, but since I was not walking around with this all day, I was canceling mine until I found a hot mouth or an ass to put it in; I wasn’t picky. I started walking up the steps when Zac stopped me just as I reached the top.
“Have you seen Deacon?”
“Nah, buddy, I haven’t,” I told him.
He looked down and smirked. “That explains why you canceled class, I just got the notification,” Zac teased, and I shoved him.
“Bugger off unless you’re willing to suck it.”
“Hard pass.” He laughed, moving off with the rest of the men. I shook my head at him. He could be an idiot. Just as I was about to climb the next set of stairs, I stopped because I noticed Aleera come out of the mess hall with a plastic bowl.
She looked around suspiciously, and I watched her move back as she went to look up the stairs.Now, what was she up to?The creaking of a door had me glancing back over the railing to where she was, but she was gone, and I just looked over in time to see the door of the cells shut.Now, why would she be going down there?Tempted to call Darius, I pulled my phone out when I heard the door before watching her sneak back out, only this time she wasn’t holding the bowl. My brows furrowed, and I waited for her to leave.
