"then you are more than welcome to bring it up with the school authorities. But He paused, his g gray eyes fixing on me one last time before he continued. "As for now, to disagree with my teaching assistant is

to disagree with me." He held my gaze for a breathless moment before he looked over at the Beta student. "Apologize to her."
