Chapter 17
Rhea
âRhea!â His voice booms deep, emotionless, and irritated, like Iâm no one of importance to him, and it sparks a fit of anger inside of me. âWhat the fuck are you doing here?â His lips are pursed, inconvenienced at having to breathe the same air as me.
I almost bite back at him, almost, but I manage to refrain, refusing to shout across the distance between us. So I place one foot in front of the other, marching toward him, my head rising and my shoulders pushing back with every step I take.
My plans for some library time and a catch up with Harmonia and the twins is going to have to wait. There are more pressing matters at hand. Like teaching this asshole how to speak to me with respect. Heâs borderline becoming Zellus with his attitude toward me, which is fucked up considering heâs in my unit.
âNothing,â I bite, plastering a smile on my lips. âI literally owe you nothing. So, hereâs an idea for you, please fuck all the way off,â I add, continuing to stroll past him without a backward glance.
I hear the rumble of his disapproving sigh, feeling it reverberate in my chest, but the fucker follows me. Of course he does.
âDo you know how worried everyone has been?â he grunts, picking up speed to catch up with me, but the second he reaches his hand out to grab my wrist, I snatch it from his grasp, spinning to a stop as I face him head on.
âAnd they chose to send you?â I scoff. âFuck off. They should have known better.â I can taste the purposeful venom on my tongue, sour and bitter, but I canât seem to simmer it down.
Rolling my eyes, I turn my back on him, satchel pinned to my side as I stride toward the exit.
âYouâre insufferable,â he grunts, his footsteps following, but I donât turn to look at him. âThe second we realized you werenât in Agion, everyone kicked into overdrive trying to figure out where you might have disappeared to. Yet here you are, unfazed by the chaos and panic youâve caused.â The disapproval is evident in his tone, but Iâm a grown ass woman who can do as she pleases. If this unit is going to work, theyâre going to have to get used to that and respect my motherfucking boundaries.
âI came to do some training with Professor Riva, you guys knew that was going to happen, Xander overheard the entire conversation I had with him, remember?â I snark back, glaring over my shoulder, only to find him much closer to my side than I expected, but I donât slow my pace.
Turning back to the portal up ahead, I rub my lips together as I try to dampen my heightened emotions of anger and⦠annoyance, but theyâve been bubbling under the surface for far too long.
âYou should have fucking told someone where you were going, Rhea,â he bites, hand clamping down on my shoulder as he spins me around, making me stumble over my own feet, but I manage to not fall flat on my ass.
