Chapter 1

Book 2: Year Two

CATALINA

“Okay, second years, quiet down and have a seat.” The teacher smiles warmly at us. She’s a tall, beautiful brunette with mismatched eyes.

Nick had told me about her, saying she was one of his favorite teachers. Lucien had said the opposite.

I choose a seat at the back of the classroom. Unlike my first year here, the seats don’t go back. Instead, they go up, like most colleges.

Abigail follows me, pointing out all the cute new boys in class. I shake my head, taking a seat.

“Welcome to Magic 101. My name is Ms. Burnet. In this class, we’ll be unlocking our individual powers.” She starts writing words on the board. Each one denotes a different supernatural ability.

“Each of you has magical properties inside. With my help and the help of this class, we’ll explore those powers.”

“I’m so excited that we have a class together this year!” Abigail whispers excitedly next to me. I grin at her.

After comparing our schedules this morning, we realized I was lucky enough to have three classes with her.

The rest of my classes are with Mateo—except one, a personal defense class I have at the end of each day.

My mates aren’t happy about this, especially since we don’t know who the teacher is.

“Mateo is going to kill you if you distract me,” I joke, knowing damn well she will distract me.

“The person you’re sitting next to will be your partner for the rest of the year unless I choose otherwise,” Ms. Burnet says, facing the class again. I frown at one of the names on the board.

“Fallen angels? Aren’t those just demons?” I ask Abigail, but I must be louder than I realize, because Ms. Burnet looks at me.

“What an excellent question! Perhaps we’ll start our lesson with fallen angels then.” She starts to erase the other names. “But contrary to what you’ve heard, fallen angels are not demons.

“They are just angels that walk the earth. They’re referred to as ‘fallen’ because their wings turn black the moment they hit the earth.” She starts writing several facts on the board.

A girl in the bottom row raises her hand.

“Yes, Ms. Ryker?”

“Are there any fallen angels here at this school? Why haven’t I met one?” she asks.

I’m wondering the same thing.

Ms. Burnet laughs. “Ah, yes! You will never meet a fallen angel at the academy because they don’t have kids. All fallen angels that now walk the earth are hundreds of years old.”

That sounds like a lonely life.

She continues talking about fallen angels for the rest of the class, assigning us to do research on them.

“First day, and she gives us homework? I already don’t like her,” I whine, shoving books into my backpack.

Abigail laughs. “She doesn’t seem that bad. We just have to give her time.”

I follow her out of the classroom, spotting Nick leaning against the wall. He’s dressed in a tight pink shirt with dark blue jeans, looking as hot as always.

I just can’t get over how lucky I am to have not one but four sexy mates. Well, five if I count the moody vampire who’s been ignoring me.

“You like her as much as I do?” he asks, wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me close.

I arch an eyebrow. “And just how much do you like her?” I tease, poking his chest.

He smirks. “I think she might be my second mate.”

I punch him hard. Laughing, he slips a hand up the back of my shirt. Sparks ignite, and I sigh, leaning into him.

“Save the lovey-dovey shit for later. Our next class is starting.” Abigail snatches my arm, pulling me away from him.

He quickly captures my lips, pouting when she drags me away.

“You’re a real cock-blocker, you know,” I tell her, watching Nick disappear in the crowd.

“Oh, please, you know I’d never do that if it had been Mateo,” she admits shamelessly.

I chuckle. “Mateo wouldn’t stop me from going to class anyway.”

***

By the time lunch arrives, I’m over school once again. And to think I have to do two more years of this shit.

“What are your plans after college?” Abigail asks as we walk to get our food. I eye the demigods’ table, having still not come to terms with the fact that I am one of them.

Can they sense my godly powers? Probably not, since I can’t even sense them.

“I plan to have a beach house in Florida. I love being close to the water, and it’s always been my dream to live on the beach.”

Suddenly, it occurs to me that my love for water might have something to do with my father.

“That’s it? What about career choice?” she asks as she gets spaghetti and I grab a cheeseburger.

“I haven’t given it much thought.” I shrug.

“What about your mates?”

My eyes go to the werewolf table, where Lucien is. What will my mates do after college?

Lucien is a lycan alpha. Will he want to start his own pack? And what about Mateo and Nick? I’m sure Mateo has some kind of nerdy dream.

“I don’t know. We haven’t discussed that. But we still have time for now.” There is time for me to try and sort things out.

I leave her in the cafeteria, going to meet my dragon in the library. “Do you like dogs?” Kol asks, falling into step beside me and almost giving me a heart attack.

He’s been doing that a lot lately. Appearing out of nowhere, asking me the most random questions, then disappearing.

I peek at him in his long trench coat, wanting to run my hands through his wild, messy hair. Kol and I never get alone time because he’s never around.

As a demon, he’s not even supposed to be on the earth. I glance around the halls, relieved to see they’re empty. “Yes.”

He grins, and I know he’s about to disappear again when shadows form around him. “Wait!” I take hold of his coat. “Where are you going?”

He smirks, disappearing into a cloud of shadows then reappearing in front of me. He leans against the wall, blocking my path.

“Curiosity,” he starts, pulling out one of his famous lollipops, “killed the cat.” He pops it into his mouth.

I narrow my eyes. “Are you threatening me?” Sometimes, I’m not sure how Kol feels about me.

Due to my lack of spending time with him, it’s hard to determine if he wants me as a mate or not, even if he did save my life.

He takes a step closer. “Threaten the woman I’m meant to spend the rest of my life with, along with five other men?” His eyes turn black for a second, making me take a step back.

“If I wanted you dead, kitten, you wouldn’t be around to hear any threats.”

I gulp at the malice in his voice, then frown at his words. “Only three other men.” Where the hell did he get five? The dean doesn’t want me, so he doesn’t count.

Shadows appear around him again. “See you around, kitten.”

I stare at the spot he just occupied. Kol is a different kind of mate.

I fear him and want to jump his bones at the same time. What is wrong with me?
