Chapter Twelve

Cyrus

* * *

Daisy was yawning, struggling to keep her pretty little head propped up.

How the hell was he supposed to teach her this difficult magic if she wasn’t serious about it? Week after week, he pushed her, and he could tell she had the raw talent, but it just wasn’t clicking. She was probably out gallivanting with Larkin. They left the court last night and never returned.

Maybe she just isn’t a healer. Maybe it’s time to change tactics. Dramatically.

He snapped his fingers in front of her face. “Are we awake this afternoon, Lady Daisy?”

Erin snickered and he shot a look her way. “You have very undisciplined thoughts, Lady Erin. I want you to keep your mind blank through the rest of class or I will expose every thought in your head to everyone. Your collar must be a little tight right now.”

She bared her teeth, trying to resist the urge to tug at the dog collar she was wearing under her turtleneck. He didn’t really care if she and Lord Wolfsbane wanted to…have fun with the werewolf/wolf hunter dynamic, and he didn’t want to get into an argument with Wolfsbane outside of class, but if she didn’t leave Daisy alone, he wasn’t opposed to dueling.

“Daisy, come up here,” he said, grabbing her under one elbow and hauling her out of her chair.

“Hey!” She fought him, as he knew she would. “Let go of me.”

“This is my class. My rules. Do what I say, or I might have to punish you. I want you to demonstrate a spell today.”

He caught some of her anger, laced with a certain sense of betrayal, but her sleepiness was covering up her thoughts. She was just too tired to think them.

“You know I suck at this class,” she said. “Is that what you want from me? To admit it? Fine—I know I bragged about being good at healing, and you sure showed me. Is that what you want?”

“No.” He swatted her luscious round ass. “That’s for your cheek.”

“What the ever living fuck?” she spat back.

“Ah—you don’t enjoy that? I’m surprised.”

“Not right now I don’t. What wrong side of the bed did you tumble out of, and was it straight into a pile of demon shit? Maybe that would explain your attitude!”

“Climb onto the table,” he said.

“On the table!? Why?”

“Just follow the orders. You might want to take off the heels first.”

“No,” she growled.

“Fine.” He took a step back and crossed his arms, waiting. “No one moves or says a word until Daisy is standing on the table.”

She tried to lift one knee onto the desk but her skirt was too tight. She turned around and did a little hand-lift ass hop instead. She gave him a look of death as she wriggled back onto the desk and tried to carefully pull her high heels up, flashing her underwear at him by pure accident, he was sure. She struggled to stand what with the way her impractical shoes threw her legs out of their natural stance, but finally, she was standing on the desk.
