Cursed Shadows (Silvercrest Academy #3)

by K.C. Kean

To taking strength from within, slaying those demons, and smearing your name in their blood. Boss bitches just got lethal.

“One day, you will see yourself how we do, and it’s going to be magnificent.”

Brax smirks, or at least I think he does. It’s over too quickly for me to be certain. “We’re very aware you rule the castle, Shadow.” “Or that’s what you let me think sometimes. Other times you ignore me altogether and force me to practice magic even when I don't agree to it,” I snap, and he cocks a brow at me as Zane’s chuckle rings out around us. Brax leans in close, his lips against my ear as he speaks. “You love it. Now, save your bite for later. You’re making my dick hard, and right now, we need to focus on your magic.”

I almost consider pushing for him to fuck me, but I can’t keep hiding my emotions and using sex as a distraction. Besides, he won’t get me off. Not yet. Not when my brother is still breathing.

“You’re it for me, Creed. I'll take the ups, the downs, and the mundane in between. I want it all with you.”

“Professor, I need to talk to you about something,” Raven blurts as she plants her hands on the desk between her and Figgins. The latter quirks a brow at my girl, likely questioning her rudeness, but Raven doesn’t back down as she holds her stare. “That will have to wait until after the class.” Raven’s already shaking her head before Figgins finishes speaking. “I need to talk to you about Ari and the other creatures who⁠—” “Miss Hendrix,” Figgins shouts with a gasp, cutting Raven off, and my spine stiffens, ready to jump to my girl’s defense if necessary. “I said we can discuss this after class,” she repeats, and Raven stands tall. She straightens her blazer and purses her lips as she glares at the professor. “We can discuss this now and I will keep my expectations of you low, or we can wait until after class is done with and I’ll be holding you accountable for more. Waiting until the end of the class will cement your dedication.” Hot. As. Fuck. No one should look that good when they’re being that demanding, but Raven has a way about her.
