it to his friend who was now rocking his hips back and forth while Geraldine held onto his head and shouted wild encouragements to him. He looked like he was having the time of his life.
Seth’s Atlas fell into the mud and Max looked over at us in a daze. “What?”
“Get a photo,” Seth snapped.
“I don’t want a photo,” I yanked at my wrists, opening my palms and readying to blast him off of me with air if he didn’t obey.
Max laughed, snatching up the Atlas and snapped a photo just as Seth leaned down and pressed his lips to mine.
“Ah!” I released a storm of air, forcing him off of me and sending him flying away into the mud with a hard thwack.
I wiped my mouth with the back of my hand, sitting up with a snarl before pushing to my feet. “What the hell, Seth?”
He got up, clutching his stomach as he laughed and I charged him down, using my earth magic to pelt huge balls of mud at him. The first one slapped him right in the face, killing his laugh dead, but he threw up an air shield before I could land the second one.
The earth quaked beneath my feet as I prepared to bury him, but Caleb suddenly shot between us and Washer started blowing his whistle.
“What’s going on?” Caleb demanded of me, like it was my damn fault Seth didn’t have any boundaries. But I had to admit, maybe Caleb did look kind of jealous.
“He kissed me,” I growled, pointing an accusing finger over Caleb’s shoulder at the mutt.
Caleb whipped around to look at him and I couldn’t see his expression as Seth shrugged innocently.
“She was begging for it,” Seth said with a smirk. “She kept saying ‘oh you’re getting me so wet, drag me back to your Wolf den and put it in my ass’.”
An earthquake split away from me as I snarled and the ground tore in two. I’m gonna kill him.
Seth rose himself up on a cloud of air as Caleb jumped out of the way of the hole opening up in the ground.
“That’s enough!” Washer called. “I know this new Order law is causing a lot of sexual frustration, Miss Vega, but we must all try to restrain ourselves. I can always help syphon off some of that rampant energy if you need an outlet.”
I shuddered, rounding on Washer as Seth and Caleb did too.
“Why are you such a damn pervert?” I snapped at him before I could stop myself and Washer’s mouth dropped open.
“I do beg your pardon, Miss Vega?” Washer held a hand to his heart, looking utterly offended.
“No, she’s right,” Seth snarled. “If you talk to her like that again, I’ll deal with your ass myself.”
“I don’t need your help,” I tossed at Seth, but I guessed his solidarity was sort of sweet.
“Oh-ho!” Washer gasped. “You’ll deal with my ass will you, Mr Capella?” he asked, making it sound like a completely different kind of threat and I grimaced.
“I’m gonna get you fired if you don’t back down, you old creep,” Darius barked, walking over with Max at his back, water streaming from their hair and making their uniforms cling to their muscular bodies. I’d noticed he’d point blank refused to take part in the stretching shit and I knew that was because of Tory. He didn’t let any of the fangirls even get close to him these days and there was something stupid cute about that.
Caleb laughed obnoxiously and Washer looked between us all in shock then took a step back, chuckling nervously.
“I meant no harm. You’ve got the wrong end of the stick,” he simpered, cowering under the gaze of all of us.
“Good,” Darius growled. “Then in the words of Lance Orion, the best damn Pitball coach this team has ever had by the way, class is fucking dismissed.”
We all turned away from Washer, heading to the locker rooms and Geraldine guffawed as she came prancing along beside me.
“That’ll show that brackish ballbag where to stuff his stationary,” she said with another loud laugh and I grinned.
“I don’t think he’ll ever stop being creepy though,” I said as we headed inside and I urged my Phoenix fire into my veins to warm me through.
We split away from the boys, walking into the girls’ changing room and we were soon showered and dressed in warm clothes and I adjusted the necklace holding the Imperial Star over my shirt carefully. I put on the Gemini bracelet my
