He smirked as the two of them spun to face him, and he held up his phone. “Caught the good stuff on video.” He eyed her. “Those are some hot little moans you’ve got there.” His eyes flashed. “Angel whore.”

“Enough,” Orpheus growled.

“You’re defending her?” Tal asked, incredulous.

“I’m trying to get to the bottom of a complicated situation. I can’t do that if she’s defensive.”

“Forget about getting to the bottom of it. Just stay the fuck away from her. Problem solved.”

“It’s not as simple as that, Talon.”

“Well, I’ve just made it that simple.”

“What are you talking about?”

“This video I took of you sucking her tits and her begging you to fuck her? I just sent it out to the entire college.”

I burst in. “Call it back. Right now.”

“Had enough lurking back there, huh, X? Finally come to join this fucked-up gathering with this cunt bitch.”

“Watch your mouth,” I ground out.

“Take it down a few notches, baby bird.”

“Or don’t,” Alena seethed. “It’ll take the fun out of making you.”

He took a step forward, rising to the challenge. “Oh, fuck, yeah. Come at me, Nephilim. I’ll punish you good.”

“And I’ll break you, phoenix.”

“No chance.”

“You’re too hot-headed to survive a head-to-head with me. Pun intended, asshole.”

He scoffed. “You don’t even have full access to your powers. You’re nothing.”

Before anything more could be said, commotion reached us from outside.

Isabella rushed on in and gave Alena the dirtiest look I’d ever seen. “You didn’t.”

Alena held up her hands. “It’s not what you—”

“Not what I think? Chicks before dicks—ever heard of it?”

“I have but—”

“Butwe didn’t date,” Orpheus cut in. “I was never yours.”

“Because your shitheadeness got in the way of ever—”

“Becauseyou’re a self-serving, superficial weakling, not fit for the likes of me.”

“And she is?”

“She’s closer than anybody else on this fucking planet.”

What?
