Heading my way, she doesn’t hesitate to sit where she rightfully belongs.

In my lap.

If we weren’t in front of an audience, I’d be groaning in relief, having her floral scent mixed with vanilla hit me with a whoosh. My arm snakes around that curvy waist, securing her in place. In my lap, no one would think twice about touching what’s mine.

When Eva peers at me from over her shoulder, one look has me laying my lips on her like she’s everything I need to start my day.Maybe she is.The kiss isn’t for show.I bet they all wished it was.There’s no need for convincing when I kiss her deeply like I’ve been craving her taste all fucking morning.

As though I didn’t swallow her whimpering moans before eating her pussy up.

Which reminds me.

Breaking the kiss, I give Eva an appreciative smirk while she pouts her delicate lips. Whatever red, long-lasting lipstick she’s wearing is definitely kiss-proof.

I need these lips around my cock sooner or later.

Now that I reaffirmed to our grand crowd of witnesses that Eva is mine, I look to the quivering maid on her knees.

“Thea.”

“Y-Y-Y-Yes, sir!” She’s bowing her head to the floor.

Good. No one should be messing up within these walls after today.

“Seeing as you’re so good at fucking up, why don’t you try to redeem yourself by cleaning up the mess this douche is making on our lavish wooden floors,” I stress with an arrogant growl. “It’s not sanitary to be eating so close to pools of blood. One inhale and you might be at risk of various diseases.”

“Y-Yes, Sir. I apologize for not acting upon it earlier. I will commence your orders this instance!” She’s up and running like a track star out of the breakfast space to retrieve anything she needs to clean up this shit.

“Now.” I get back to the conversation now that I’ve appeased my need for Eva and my annoyance in seeing pools of blood too close to me.

The sight is far more triggering than I’d dare admit to remember.

“What business would we, the Ruthless Kings of Havoc and our lovely Ruthless Maiden, have for you to come down here on the first day of school to try to reclaim positions you obviously lost?” I pause to look at navy hair and dirt blonde. “Minus those two.”

“I’m not gonna bother any of you. I’m here for moral support,” navy-blue declares in a matter-of-fact tone. Domino gives him a side glare, but this dude does seem unbothered by his temper tantrums. He’s observing our table with great interest. I need to know who he is and why he’s associated with Domino.

What’s his significance?

“I want my Ruthless King title back!” Domino orders with clenched fists.

“Anything more achievable?” I taunt, knowing damn well my little spoiled brat of a brother would stay until he attempted to get what he thinks he deserves. “If it was so easy to claim one’s title, I could have stolen it from you long ago.”

This already feels like a waste of time.

“If you have nothing else to say, can you leave so we can enjoy our breakfast in peace?” I hurry them while my arm loosens around Eva’s waist so I can lay my hand on her left upper thigh. She moves just slightly, as though to fix her position, but fuck. It makes it hard to stay still with how my cock is naggingly hard.

When they don’t move, it’s the bleeding Flex on the floor that groans.

“Fuck, Domino. Can you hurry up and threaten him already? I’m not fucking dying on these rich floors. My damn life insurance wouldn’t cover the bill.”

At least this fucker is smart.

“Threaten?” Ares and Aries speak in unison. They side-eye one another in annoyance, but Ares follows with, “And what do you possibly have in your possession that would make Matteo give up the position he earned?”

Domino doesn’t delay in reaching into the inner pocket of his uniformed jacket. Seeing him in a normal uniform is odd and satisfying. I can only imagine what Eva and the rest of our group feel seeing him look so normal.

Pulling out a single floppy disk, I feel like he’s going to say something I already won’t like. My eyes drift to Zander, who’s already looking my way. We share a look before I see how he effortlessly pulls out his phone and starts typing away without anyone else noticing.

This is going to be interesting.
