The Awakening as Told by the Boys (Zodiac Academy, #1.5)

by Caroline Peckham

This girl was beautiful in a way that ran somehow deeper than her skin, in a way I could feel.

something about this one was mesmerising. I couldn’t for the life of me tear my eyes away from her.

She was without a doubt, the most stunning creature I'd ever laid my eyes upon

"Mine," I snarled, the beast in me waking up and my eyes shifting into reptilian slits as if my Dragon was aching for a look at her too.

But despite their equally attractive looks, my attention was pulled back towards the first girl like the stars wanted it to be on her.

I might have loved him, but right now I would have happily torn his head from his shoulders for touching what was mine.

"It's already done, brother. She's in Ignis now. That means she's mine,"

“Is that your cock digging into my hip?” Darius murmured as he stirred. I reached between us, grunting as I tugged out the empty bottle of bourbon. “You wish, baby.”

“I know,” I said, enjoying this game. “But until that day, you're mine, Blue.”

She was my gir- Source.

Because there are some secrets I can never tell. But to keep you right now, I think I’d tell them all.

"Just because you guys were hoping I'd ask you to the dance with me doesn't mean you get to be salty little bitches over me asking someone else."

Spending the evening overseeing the school dance was right up there with killing myself on my list of enjoyable things to do tonight.

"Thank fuck she's okay," Max breathed beside me and I turned to him with a faint frown. "You been worrying about Grus, big boy?"
