Heartless Sky(Zodiac Academy #7)(261)

Author:Caroline Peckham & Susanne Valenti

“Someone just died, Xavier,” Max hissed and Orion stepped aside, revealing a bloody body behind him on the floor, also unveiling my mother and Hamish standing beyond the corpse.

Mom was pale as she looked to me. “That’s wonderful news, sweetie, well done you, you look like you did a great job too, but we’ll have to discuss it later, okay?”

No…no. Not again.

I didn’t want to discuss my sex life with my mom. I’d just told her point blank I’d fucked a guy and a girl in all the holes. Oh my stars I just said ‘all the holes’ in front of my mother.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean-by the stars, I thought the murderer was caught,” I rambled, backing up as I stared at the bloodbath between them all.

“Looks like Justin Masters wasn’t the killer,” Tory said and Geraldine shrieked, holding a hand to her forehead.

“That wigworm has been abused so terribly for his crime. And now he must be an exonerated insect, set free to fly like a beetle to the sky,” Geraldine said, falling against Max and sobbing against his shoulder.

“What the hell are we gonna do?” Darcy questioned anxiously. “Why can’t the Cyclopses find who’s doing this?”

“Bless my hyacinth, we must intensify the interrogations,” Hamish said. “We will begin at once.” He took my mom’s hand, heading off down the corridor and a few rebels hurried forward, covering the mutilated body with a blanket while everyone else started walking my way.

I turned, finding myself face to face with Gabriel, his upper lip curling back in a snarl as he took hold of my arm. “Hello, you little shit.”

Oh fuck.

“Do you know how long it took for Orion to get me out of that pube forest?” he hissed.

“Um…a while?” I rasped.

“Long enough for me to nearly choke on my own pubic hair, Xavier. Long enough for that,” he growled, taking out his Atlas, bringing something up on it and showing it to me. “Get your little asshole of a friend to take this down.”

“He’s actually my Sub now,” I said with a hint of pride in my voice as I looked at the video Tyler had just posted to FaeBook.

“I don’t care if he’s the son of the moon itself and has come down to earth to gift us all with moon magic, Xavier. You will tell him to take this down.”

I nodded quickly as I read the FaeBook post Tyler had put up online, the video of Gabriel playing beneath it, his pubes knocking Geraldine to the ground as she ran for her life, wailing about dying the way she’d always feared she would. She crawled towards the door in desperation, her hand outstretched as she began to disappear into the dark hair before Max dragged her free, promising she wouldn’t die this way and they made it out of the room.

Tyler Corbin: Things got #hairy in class today when there was a #pubetastrophy after @Gabriel Nox tried to teach us the importance of keeping a tidy bush. His pubes quickly got out of control and his #wangwig went from a #furryfriend to a #bristlybeast in less than a minute. Quick to act, Lance Orion dove in to help only to find himself amBUSHed as the #cockcarpet smothered him and he found himself with his friend’s #willywhiskers in his mouth and nowhere to go. Despite how hard Orion battled the #peenpelt, he was lost within the #deeppubesea and we have yet to lay eyes on him since.

“Sorry?” I tried as I swallowed a laugh, wondering if I should explain the deal I’d made for my dick gems, but Gabriel didn’t seem in the mood to see them all right now, so I decided not to get them out.
