I didn’t go to school the next day, none of us did. I worried about missing so much and wondered how I was still able to keep my marks up. They all seemed pretty good across the board, and my school counselor, plus two teachers had given me glowing recommendations for my college admissions package.

I wanted to get in on my own merits, but sometimes I thought about using the newfound money I had at my disposal to buy my way. Take a shortcut to my education, say fuck it on trying hard. It wasn’t like I had a typical life anymore, so how could I be expected to apply like a typical student?

Penny texted and asked if she could swing by after school, so I had that to look forward to. I needed a break from the guys hovering around me, constantly worried that I was in pain or needed something. And I needed a break from feeling miserable about the wounds on my hip. The dermatologist and plastic surgeon couldn’t see us until the following week, so being helpless to do anything about the potential scarring wasn’t making matters any better.

“Yo, we’re gonna grab something for lunch,” Ryker said as he strolled past me in the living room. I was stretched out on the wide sectional sofa with an oversized faux fur rug thrown across me. I was mindlessly scrolling on TikTok looking for a good smut book to read, maybe something about a girl in my situation, with four guys at her beck and call. “Do you want anything, princess?”

I put my phone on my lap and looked him up and down. Every once in a while, I had to give my head a shake and pat myself on the back for landing such impressive men. Four of them, could you believe that?

“How about a double cheeseburger from that food truck on Vine?” I asked. “Oh, and then stop by the Shake place and get me one of those ice cream twister things they make, one with chocolate chips and cookie crumbles.”

“I see your appetite is back,” he grinned. “You could put some weight on, anyhow. Amara has been working your ass off, literally. I want something to hang onto when I…well you know what I’m thinking.”

He gave me a dirty look and I knew exactly what he was thinking. The problem was that Rod’s comments were still stuck in my head and I felt dirty when Ryker said it. Not dirty in a good way, but dirty in a way that made me feel inhuman, as if I was just an object for the Organization still. Even though I was safe and free in my own home, they were still in my head.

Fuck, I had a lot of emotional work to do before I felt normal again.

I didn’t take it out on Ryker, though, so that was a movement in the right direction. I smiled back and said, “I know exactly what you mean. Now take your fine ass out to get me my burger.
