And my dick rubs against my pants with the sexy sound of it.

She whips something metal from her pocket and tinkers with the door lock. A few seconds later, the door opens with ease, and she turns back around to us.

“Thankfully, this witch isn’t as smart about protecting her space. Guess she thinks no one would have the balls.” Red leans against the door frame, the door creaking open as a light flickers from the stairway.

“We need a place to hide…” She looks between me and Ez. “And I know a certain redhead who owes me a few years’ worth of payback.”

Her dark grin appears again, and my dick twitches with my new favouritenight-timematerial.

“Let’s have some fun.”

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

MALLYN’S POV

Iwatch on from the forest as they creep back toward Ezra’s dorm room. My beast is itching to follow and join them as they hold holds, laughing and smiling with one another. Annex grabs Micai, her laugh floating toward me as they stop to kiss.

I clench my fists, my beast growling in my ear,‘Ours,’he repeats, pushing me toward them. To join them.

It wasn’t anger or possessiveness rolling off of him, but more of a want…aneedto be with her and my brothers. To be together.

They head inside as I walk through the forest and closer to the dorms.

Creed wanted me to grab Ezra and Annex and go check onErving, one of our contacts and the source for our tip last night.

The one that was a bust and a complete waste of our time.

The potential seller or distributor of that new drug didn’t show up, leaving us to wait around for hours and waste time we could have spent elsewhere.Or precious time spent with a certain blue-eyed girl.

I open the door to the boys’ dormitory and make my way up to Ezra’s room, which is three levels up and at the end of the corridor.

I didn’t need to worry about being quiet or stealthy with all of the other students gone now. Only the Tracers and the old caretaker were about. And I could easily outrun an old man in his sixties who was half blind and moved about as quickly as a garden slug.

The Tracers were the only issue.

I didn’t like the feel of them during the interview. My beast had been growling non-stop to come out and play as they asked their dull questions.

My beast had never done well with authority, always knowing he was the more dominant one between them and us.And itching to show them all that.

When they saw a glimpse of him during the interview, they shrunk and moved the interview along faster so that they wouldn’t be trapped in a room with him any longer than necessary.I guess there were times when his presence was helpful.

He growls inside me. Annoyance rolls through me with the thought as it reaches him.

Either way, we both could agree to not liking the Tracers in the academy and in our domain.And around Micai.

That was another thing. She shouldn’t be left in the academy alone while they were around. The dogs of the council couldn’t be trusted, and neither my beast nor I wanted them around her. The sooner they were gone, the better.

In the meantime, I’ll have to talk to Creed about it. Micai couldn’t be left here with them. At the very least, she had helped me and had kept Annex safe with us the night of the academy’s attack. He may still not trust her, but her actions so far have shown us all that she’s worthy of just that—our trust.

No matter how much he denies it, it’s evident how she feels about Annex and Ezra and how they feel about her. She isn’t apassing phase. Our little group was changing, and he would have to accept that and her. She is permanent.

‘Ours,’my beast growls, a toothy grin appearing in my mind as I knock on Ezra’s door.

There’s a slight shuffling from inside, along with Annex’s gruff voice, before I hear Ezra’s steps approaching the door. He pulls it open, and the scent of her arousal instantly hits me and makes my dick twitch in my pants. A feeling of want takes hold of me and pushes me forward to her as I take a step inside the room. But I quickly halt my movements as I meet Ezra’s annoyed gaze.

“What is it, Mal?” he calls, dragging a hand through his hair, his chest bare as he glances back toward Annex and Micai on the bed. She fixes her top as Annex huffs beside her.

“Creed—”
