Handing over my plate of food and drink to Sansa, I slowly turned to face Zia. Her long hair flowed in waves over her shoulders. Her piercing eyes stared back atwith a smug expression on her face, the only thing I could think about was what it would look like beaten in. Perhaps that was a slightly aggressive thought forto have, but she had pushed my last fucking button like no one would believe.

A scoff left her lips as she sat there, rolling her eyes with her arms across her chest. She had to always be high and mighty when she was around her peers, something girls like her would never get tired of doing.
"I don't have a problem. It's you who's jealous Lucas and I are, well, eventually going to be together," she replied mockingly.
The last thing I had was tto spend on a woman like this, but I was sick and tired of her pushing my buttons. I was sick and tired of her spreading false rumors and more sick and tired of just dealing with her shit in general.
I hadn't even been in this place that long, and it was like she was completely threatened by my presence here and sought to try and make my life a living hell.
"You have high hopes for someone who's second best. Is that what you do with your day, Zia? Do you dream of taking the men of other women just to make yourself feel better when they don't give you the attention you want?" Shocked by what I had said, her mouth dropped open wide as her eyes narrowed and an angry glare crossed her face. "What the fuck did you just say to me?" Snorting with laughter, I glanced over at Trixie, who was just as shocked as Zia. It didn't cas a surprise tono one had ever stood up to this girl. She was pathetic, honestly, and I didn't elunderstand how she could be the way she was when, in today's age, we should be working with each other, not against.
Regardless of how she should be, I couldn't help but stand there staring at her in annoyance. "I'm pretty sure I didn't stutter, and I said it loud enough for everybody in here to hear. So I don't understand where the confusion is coming from." Stomping her foot, she screamed in irritation as she stormed past people toward me. I knew that look in her eye. It was one of a woman on a warpath, and if she wanted a part of me, then she could have one.

makeshudder. With our bond still technically in place, for the most part, I let the shiver of histone run down my spine before he stepped in between Zia andwith his glare pointed at me. "Givewhat I want." "No," I snapped with more determination inthan I ever felt. "You're not you right now, and I won't let you make a choice when you're not thinking clearly."
Laughter escaped him as he looked at Zia and a few others before turning his gaze toagain. You never even wanted this, Cassie. Why hold on now?" "Because I won't let you do something you might regret."
My reply made him flinch as his angry scowl dropped for a moment before reappearing again. No matter what I said he refused to see what I was saying for truth. The more thought about it, the more I couldn't help but wonder what had happened for him to act the way he was. The night we spent together flashed through my mind, and though he tried to break our bond, I refused to accept him. Which meant neither of us was going to move on.
