The only thing I can think of as I sit with the three Kings in a small room with a single bed in the corner is that Shelby would find this whole thing hilarious.

Especially when she found out what I’d just proposed.

I can’t quite wrap my head around it, and it’s clear the boys can’t either since they’re silently staring at me—Gray’s jaw slightly dropped.

“Wait,” Gray says, running a hand through his fabulous hair, “did you just ask one of us to be your fake-boyfriend or something?”

“I don’t think she said the word ‘boyfriend’,” Theo adds, although he looks equally confused.

I sigh and lean back in the hard chair, identical to the one in my room. “As you know, the Brats have marked me. First, they mess with my hair, then they escalated, almost drowning me. I’ve been offered ‘protection’ twice now and I’ve seen what that means—”

“Um, what does that mean?” Theo asks.

“It means I fuck and give blow jobs on command instead of being harassed by the other students.”

Hawk’s gray eyes flick to mine. For a second I think the rage behind them is directed at me. “Who asked you to do that?”

I shake my head, not wanting to start a war. “Don’t tell me you haven’t seen the power structure around here. You have the dirt on the bottom—the ignored. The geeks and academics next. The jocks and popular girls and then the highest group—the ones that tossed me in that pool.” I look at the three guys. “Then you have a subset of people that are there just to serve their whims. Clearly that’s where they want me.”

“She’s right,” Gray confirms. “I just had an enlightening conversation in the bathroom with my math tutor. Everything in this place is about leverage and power.”

“What about us?” Theo asks. “Where do we fit in?”

“Since you came in together, and you all were lucky to be born handsome and with a cock between your legs, they seem willing to let you hover near the top. I’m assuming as long as you stay in line.”

Gray snorts. “That’s because they don’t know why we’re here.”

“And they won’t find out,” I say. “But again, I’m not so lucky and as much as I hate to admit it, I need your help.”

Hawk looks surprised to hear me say it out loud. Me too. That’s how much almost drowning scared me.

He leans forward from his seat on the bed and rests his elbows on his legs. “And you want us to help you by one of us acting like your boyfriend.”

“Or protector—or pimp or whatever they call it around here.” I feel disgusting saying it—asking for help like this. I tell them so. “I worked hard to stay away from selling myself down in the Park, and you know that’s not an easy accomplishment. I always respected my body and my mind, even when I had to make concessions. I hate the fact I’m asking you to do this, but I can’t bow down to these assholes.
