“You shouldn’t let them talk to you like that, you know?” Theo, Felix’s son and the future Beta saddles up alongside me. He’s not horrible, but he certainly has never been pleasant either. I think he hates how much time Felix has given to me over the years.
“Your class is in the other direction.” I deadpan.
“You know my classes now?” A sly smirk creeps along his lips.
“I know everyone’s schedule, you’re not special or anything. I just like to know where to avoid.”
“Well, you obviously didn’t get the update. Zion and I are taking advanced this year. Alpha wants us ready to graduate if need be.”
I huff out a breath. “Oh, great.”
We turn the corner for Advanced English and there leaning against the door is the smug bastard himself. Looking overly happy with himself as he pushes off the wall and gives Theo one of those ‘bro’ hugs.
“Did you inform the little warrior?” Zion asks as if I’m not there.
“Nah, not yet. Thought you’d want to do the honours.
They both turn to me, and I do my best to burn a hole in the classroom door that isn’t opening fast enough. Zion steps directly in front of me and I roll my eyes dramatically as he crossed his arms to look down at me.
“You’re going to tutor us.”
“Ah, no.”
“I’m the future alpha, Envy. You kind of have to do whatever I tell you to.”
“See how you said ‘future’, meaning, not yet, meaning no I don’t have to do anything you tell me to.”
“How about I inform my father then.”
Another long eye roll and huge scoff leaves me before I stare directly up and into his eyes.
“Alpha Marcus will inform you that my schedule is full up. I have business outside of the pack every day now.”
“So when will you study then?”
“Late.”
“Great, we’ll meet you at your room every day at ‘late’, then.”
Infurious, bastard! Of course this would be the moment Mrs Parker, the English teacher chooses to arrive and the small group of us file inside. I make a point of going in last so I can choose the seat furthest away from everyone.
