“I’ll dye it back tomorrow.”

“Done,” Colin said quickly. “No take backs.”

They’d just finished taking the selfie—Jamie beaming, Colin flipping his middle finger—when Fox ambled in, a bag of chips in one hand. He stood there like an idiot, mouth gaping, until Colin snapped at him, “What?”

Fox just continued to look between him and Jamie, before finally wrinkling his nose as he stuffed another handful of chips in his mouth.Animal.“I think I hate this,” he muttered through the crumbs as he pulled out his phone, no doubt texting Dane the news.

“Join the fucking club,” Colin snapped.

Five minutes later—after Colin had banished Fox back to his room and he and Jamie were settled on the couch withSk8 the Infinityon the TV, Jamie still giggling to himself every other minute—Colin got a text from Jay.

It was the selfie Jamie had taken, followed by two dozen heart emojis, followed by a very enthusiasticYou two look ADORABLE!!,followed by two dozen more heart emojis.

The worst part was, Colin knew Jay wasn’t even being sarcastic. He meant every single one of those heart emojis.

Fuck Colin’s life.

Tomorrow couldn’t come fast enough.

CASSIAN AND BLAKE

SORRY, CHAD

Cassian

Cass left his classroom building, buzzing with excitement.

His professor had tried to get them with a surprise test the day after returning from spring break, but Cass had been prepared.

No professor was going to catchhimsleeping.

Mostly because he didn’t sleep.

Well, he slept some, but not nearly as much as before he’d been turned. Which left so much time for studying. Even with him and Blake having been attached at the hip all break (and hadn’t that been a trip? Waltzing into Blake’s family home and being welcomed with open arms?) and fucking like rabbits whenever they were alone.

Cass’s new inner friend perked up at that, as it always did with any thought of Blake, shifting and stretching inside him with interest.

Cass scoffed at it inside his head.Doesn’t take much to wake you, does it?

Who could blame it though? Sex with Blake was…

Cass blushed, tilting his head down toward his feet so no passing students would see the dopey look on his face.

Sex with Blake wasamazing. It was exactly how Cass had always dreamed. No, even better. Because never in any of Cass’s dreams had Blake ever wanted him as badly as he seemed to in real life. Cass’s imagination hadn’t been capable of even picturing it.

And the way Blake was so eager to explore with Cass, to find all the different ways they could find pleasure together. With hands. With mouths. With…other appendages…

Cass felt a familiar tightening in his lower belly.Whoops. Time to find another train of thought before you get a boner in the quad.

What had Cass been thinking about? Right. His bio class.

Yes. School. Exactly. Good at school, that was Cass. Because even attached at the hip, Blake had to sleep eventually. And Cass only required a couple of hours. (He could even go without that if he really had to, although Blake hadn’t liked it when Cass had pushed himself that hard.) Cass was going to breeze right through this semester.

Best student, best vampire, best boyfriend.

He’d been a bit worried about class itself—about being pressed in by so many human bodies in the lecture hall. He’d thought maybe his bloodlust would awaken, take over his Blake-lust for the first time.

But it had been fine. People smelled good, sure (and some definitely didnot), but Cass wasn’t tempted to go on any sort of berserker vampire rampage. He was still himself. Still Cass.
