Ahem. Sis? Tre’s amused voice filters through our sibling bond, breaking the spell I’d been under while staring at the tall drink of water. I could also feel Ami’s amusement, though I don’t dare look behind me. No matter how badly I want to glare in her direction. Treice’s interruption of my thoughts brought my eyes from the bulging veins of our older, very much unattainable¸ professor’s heated gaze. Never in my life had I ever been more glad to have darker skin, as this moment. My face burns at levels so high that I’d been red as a tomato. I swallow past the lump in my throat as I fight to keep the impassive expression both my sisters and myself have perfected over the years living with our respective clans.
