My entire body felt on fire under his intense gaze. I tried my best to avoid eye contact as he towered over me, but once my eyes met his, the usual amber color of his orbs went darker and darker until they were now of a fervent brown shade and his p...
Essence's POV _ "Yeah I wasn't asking" I rolled my eyes at him despite his inability to see me. "Ian we are having this sibling bonding day whether you like it or not."
_ "Did mom and dad make you do this?" He whines into the phone.
_ "No. We have a lot to discuss and some major catching up to do. I have the whole day already planned out. So stop being a whiny bitch already, we both know you don't mind us hanging out." I smirk evilly. I was gonna whoop my brother's ass for what he did to Destiny. A defeated sigh is heard from the other end of the line, and I know I've won this debate.
_ "Fine... I'll meet you at the entrance at 5." My brother finally gives in, and without giving me time to gloat, he hangs up.
I went about my day as I usually would. I had parkour, the art of seduction, shooting and hand to hand combat. After I finished all my classes, I met up with Destiny and Raven at the picnic tables outside the cafeteria.
_ "I'm leaving for a mission." Raven informs us as soon as she plops onto the bench, throwing her legs onto the table.
_ "When?" I ask before Destiny even had the time to process anything.
_ "Thursday morning." She shrugs, taking a bite out of her pizza slice. "I'm going to be gone for a week as-well, and no Destiny I can't tell you any more than that." Tiny's mouth immediately closes shut and she crosses her arms across her chest giving us a pout. About half an hour later, I jog back to my room to take a quick shower and change out of the clothes I had been in all day. Not really worried about how I look, I threw on a random white tank top, a pair of old washed out jeans which I managed to make less loose by adding on a black belt, and ran out the door, already running a few minutes late.

As soon as I arrive to the academy's gates, I was greeted by a rather grumpy Ian.
_ "What took you so long?" He narrows his eyes at me.
_ "It takes time to look this good" I motion at myself, not willing to tell him that I was actually running late because of a gossip session I had with my friends. Ian grimaces, looking like he had just smelt crap.
_ "What do you mean?" He retorts. "It looks like you just stumbled out of grandpa's closet."
_ "Oh shut up!" I swatted him on the back of his head, as he chuckled while I rolled my eyes trying to suppress the grin menacing to break out.
As soon as we got into my brother's car and started to drive, he asks:
_ "Where are we heading to schwester?" I grinned at him slyly as he eyed me from the corner of his eye.
_ "You know that tattoo shop you got your ink at?" I begin cautiously. His eyes widen at my words.
