Chapter Twenty Nine

The hallway was bustling after lunch, students chattering and rushing to their next classes. I was making my way to English when i felt a sudden, sharp tug on my arm. Before I could protest, I was pulled into the dimly lit janitor's closet.

"Missed me?" he asked, his lips twitching into a smirk.

"Isaiah," I hissed, glaring at him. "What the hell are you doing?"

He leaned against the door, his broad shoulders blocking my only exit. "You're not beingfair," he said, his tone more serious now. "The twins, Elijah-they've all had their moments with you. But me? He took a step closer, his blue eyes locking onto mine. "I'm tired of being left out.”

"Maybe it's because I don't care," I shot back, crossing my arms.

His smirk only deepened. "You don't care, huh?"

Before I could respond, he closed the distance between us, his hand tilting my chin up. Then, without warning, his lips were on mine.

The kiss was firm, demanding, and completely unexpected. For a moment, I froze, caught off guard by the intensity of it. Then I found my voice-or at least my strength-and pushed him back.

"Isaiah!" I said, my voice a mixture of anger and disbelief.

"Just one more," he murmured, his hand sliding to my waist as he pulled me closer again.

This time, his kiss was slower, more deliberate. Against my better judgment, I found myself responding, my hands gripping his shoulders for balance as he lifted me effortlessly. My legs instinctively wrapped around his waist, and his hand slipped under my shirt, his touch warm against my skin.

Reality snapped back into focus.

"Stop," I said, pushing at his chest, my voice breathless.
