You may tell the greatest lies and wear a brilliant disguise, but you can't escape the eyes of the one who sees right through you. TOM ROBBINS, VILLA INCOGNITO
“They’re the Four. They own this place. They pretty much run the campus.”
Of course, I recognised two of them from their photos, but I needed to hear it confirmed aloud. “Caiden and Weston Cavendish?” Kinslee stared at me suspiciously. “Yes. Why? Do you know them?” I swallowed hard, my throat suddenly dry. “They’re…well, my stepbrothers, I guess?” “What? You’ve been living with me for a week now, and you never once thought of mentioning that you were involved with the Cavendish family?”
Weston looked the friendliest of the group, his blue gaze open and warm, his lips tipped up at the corners as he glanced in my direction. Zayde looked…dangerous. That was really the only way I could describe him adequately. Thick, deep brown hair, a small sneer on his perfect, full lips, his eyes flickering over me disdainfully before he turned away, dismissing me.
Caiden. Angular jaw, eyes like stormy seas, rich, raven hair cut short around the sides and longer on the top. He was gorgeous.
“King Caiden, huh? If I’m the king, then get on your knees and worship me.”
His arms shot out, and he yanked me onto his lap. Before I could process what the actual fuck was happening, I was straddling him, he had one arm tightly around my back, the other gripping the back of my head, and his lips were on mine, hard and furious.
“No, you don’t. You and me—we’re brother and sister. You and Cade—you’re…fire. A blazing inferno, burning everything in your path.”
“Stay away from Lena, too,” Zayde shouted after him, as the door slammed shut. He turned to me, shaking his head. “You don’t want Winter, huh?” “No.” “Deluded fool.”
“I see you.” There was a roaring in my ears, and the loud bangs of the fireworks echoed all around us, and I wasn’t sure if I’d imagined his words. “What did you say?” He lowered his head and skimmed his lips over my ear. “When I look at you. I see you. Not her. You.”
