Page 34 of His To Claim

“Mmm,” I moan, taking his bottom lip between mine, my hands eagerly moving up and around his chest. “Just what I needed.”

My confession causes something in him to shift and he groans, his hands grabbing my ass as he lifts me. I wrap my legs around his waist as our kiss intensifies, and he moves us over to the couch. Drake falls back onto the couch and I position myself over his legs so I’m straddling him and grinding into his erection hardening beneath me.

“Damn, who needs porn when I get to see this in the comfort of my living room,” Jax blurts out and I realize he’s still in the room.

I tear my lips from Drake’s as I turn and scowl at Jax, flipping him off.

He’s sitting on the couch across from us still shirtless, legs crossed and sprawled on the coffee table, a bag of chips in his hand. Turning back to Drake, I lower my head to his.

“If I don’t leave now, we might end up skipping class and I’m not sure that’ll look too good on our first week” I say, and he shakes his head softly.

“The things you do to me, Scarlett.” He looks up into my eyes and smirks. “Now get off me before I take you here and now not giving a fuck who’s in the room watching.”

I climb off his lap and he smacks my ass as I turn my back to him.

“I’ll see you at lunch, Dragon,” I say before heading out toward the dining hall.

After study hall,Stella, Jade, and I head out of Whitmore Hall and over to the field behind the auditorium for gym class.

We head into the girls’ locker room to change into our gym shorts and red polo shirts before heading out to the track field. Since we are seniors and not obligated to take part in the basic physical education requirements, gym class is just a workout/cardio class.

We can either stay in the indoor gym for the cardio machines or weightlifting, or head out to the track field to run or play any of the various intramural sports.

Jade and I enjoy running and would do it regularly back in Pleasant Hills, so we step out to the track with Stella in tow. Stella’s made it clear she won’t be running, but to her benefit, six period gym doubles as football and lacrosse practice for the guys.

Hot, sweaty, muscular bodies are the main attraction out here.

“God, just look at them,” Stella says, pointing to the guys running laps around us.

“I would love to have a piece of him,” Jade says as a gorgeous guy with blond hair and a perfectly ripped body showcased in nothing but tight shorts and a thin tank that reads “Captain” runs by and winks at her.

“Ooo he’s a good one. That’s Liam Walker. Captain of the lacrosse team and our head quarterback. His dad is Australian and his mom’s some hot ex-supermodel from Italy.”

“That explains the blond hair and perfectly tanned skin,” Jade says, twirling her hair around her finger.

“Yeah, you should totally ask him out. I mean, he’s a total player but actually one of the good ones. He makes his way around but never while he’s dating someone exclusively.”

“Slutty but loyal. I love that in a man,” Jade jokes, and we all start laughing.

Liam jogs over to a group of his teammates who immediately turn to look our way after he says something to them. It’s totally obvious but they also don’t seem to mind that we are aware they’re talking about us.

The rest of the lacrosse team is busy doing drills along the field while a group I assume are the cheerleaders watch from the sidelines.

“Hey, Walker,” Stella yells and he’s quick to rush over to us leaving his guys whispering amongst one another.

“What the hell, Stella?” Jade whispers, jabbing her in the ribs as she scowls at her.

Stella cringes in pain but quickly brushes it off. “Ow Jade. I’m just trying to help. Why not just ask him out now?”

“Hey,” Liam says as he approaches us.

Jade instantly turns on her charm like she wasn’t just berating Stella for calling him over. “Hey there, handsome,” she coos, once again twirling a strand of hair between her fingers.

“Hey, beautiful,” he replies, his eyes drinking Jade in. “Silver, are you gonna introduce me to your friends? You girls are new, right? I’d remember seeing your pretty faces around.” I scoff at the same time Jade laughs flirtatiously at his compliment.

Stella’s all too eager to introduce us. “Liam, this is Jade Wolfe and her sister Scarlett Steele.”

“Nice to meet you, Jade,” he says, extending a hand to her. He turns to me. “You’re Ace’s girl, right?” he asks, immediately my smile turns into a scowl.
