His lips pulled in a smirk as I approached them.“Well look who we have here,” He drawled, leaning back on the seat with a cocky smile. “Never thought I'd see the day you'd serve me, Jordan.”My fingers dug into the basket handle until my knuckles turned white. Ten pairs of eyes pinned me in place, stripping me bare without a single touch.It made me wonder if I should have just bought the beer and headed back home.“You know her?” one of his team members asked.“Not really. Just one broke ass I tend to run into quite often,” Atlas snickered and my eyes flickered to him.I could feel the rage coursing through my veins as he uttered the words. My heart clenched so hard that I had to shut my eyes and will myself to stay calm because I was practically shaking with anger.Their laughter cracked against me like a whip, each sound burning hotter than the last.

The warmth of his touch seared through my shirt, a silent declaration like he owned me and that made the air in the cafeteria stiff.“Atlas’s glare slid to his brother’s hand on me. The muscle in his cheek twitched. “Take your arm off her.” when Evans did not respond, Atlas’s jaw ticked and he sneered. “I wasn’t asking you.”By now, the cafeteria had gone completely silent, every pair of eyes glued to us.
