Serena's POV
I felt his upturned lips against my neck as he kissed it tenderly and whispered, "That's my good girl."
I couldn't suppress the roll of my eyes or the groan that followed as I heard the telltale sound of gun safeties clicking off. The sound thundering in the suddenly oppressive silence. I shoved hard against Seth's solid chest. Honestly, how they would ever expect ME to be able to control this boy was totally beyond me. He was older, bigger, and deliciously harder.
I squirmed hard, finally managing to free myself from his protective grasp, and raised my gaze to stare down the barrels of the weapons that were trained at me. I could feel the tingle that was before in my neck steadily humming in my eyes causing their normally dull color to glow a brilliant green in response to the poison that Seth's tongue had introduced to my body. I spoke as loudly and confidently as I could muster. "His poison does not affect me. I am his assigned Protector."
Seth's POV
As Serena stood up and all eyes went to her, I used the distraction to adjust the growing bulge that was developing in my pants. Damn school uniform, unlike Serena's purposefully baggy clothes that hid her beautiful body from the rest of these bastards, mine hides nothing.
I start as she hits hard in the shoulder, totally lost with what is going on and.... honestly? I don't care.
"You taste great baby. Guys, I know you are jealous, but, if you ask me reeeeeaaaaally nicely I might be willing to sh- OW!" I yelp as the heel of her tiny foot comes down hard on mine, crushing my small toe beneath it. I wince and try to rub the pain away. And, upon her annoying insistence, I mumble an apology to the guards and our teacher.
I keep rubbing at my toe as Serena addresses our teacher in the front of the room. "May we please be excused, Mr. Carter? This stupid freak needs to be reminded of how to act when in the presence of his betters."
A sharp pang stabbed my chest at her words even though I knew she had no choice but to speak them. The sickness only grew as the whole room began to laugh.
"Of course. We wouldn't want a little thing like you receiving a beating for the stupidity of this abomination now would we? Having bruises all over that pale skin of yours would only make your parents worry." I could feel her stiffen next me and a low growl rumbled through my chest.
Her small hand landed on my bicep and she pulled me up until my full height towered over hers. "No sir, of course not." She pulled me forward as we began the slow walk to the front of the room, her eyes staying down on the floor for the whole trek until we finally made it to the door. Once there she pulled out her Association ID badge for the guards to inspect before they reluctantly let us walk out. They followed us only as far as the break room where they veered off and we were left on our own. Only then did I see my partner relax.
