Power in Death: Book 1 of The Destiny in Death Series

Combat Class

So, combat class is a very, very scary place. Every single supernatural here is just going all out, the teacher just said, "Partner up and get to it for a bit." After that the guys whisked me away into one of the corners. It's hug in here, easily the size of a football stadium but then again there is at least over a hundred students here. It seems like they do everything here in ridiculously large groups. It's completely sparce in here, just white walls and light brown flooring with a couple of matts stacked in the opposite corner.

The guys are currently crowding around me. "We should avoid the other students and focus on Alex, plus we don't want her to get hurt," Cole says and I huff but I agree as soon as I see a massive grey wolf latch onto what I assume is a vampire's throat. I look away, "Er, can you get killed in this class?" I ask looking around at the battlefield they call combat class. Sebastian darkly laughs and Eden slaps him on the back of the head playfully. "Ignore him baby, he just enjoys the smell of your fear," Eden reassures but it's not really reassuring. I look at Sebastian and even in his black gym T-shire and marron shorts he has still got that regal feel to him. He smirks at my attentions and I promptly respond with a middle finger.

Not going to lie, best P.E clothes ever! I love the maroon shorts, they're not crazy baggy like my last schools and they feel so much better in quality. The black t-shirt is plain at the front but it has the academies crest cover the whole back of the top.

Ward leans against the wall next to me surveying the other students. I don't bother saying anything to him, I feel like I will just be ignored if I bother. I turn to Cole, "So what are we going to do?" I ask. His large frame shrouds me and a bit of brown hair falls on his forehead which he irritable swats away, "Teach you some basic self-defense. The teacher in this class is a lazy fucker. None of the staff really care about combat class, they care about the focused lessons for their species." Fantastic. "Okay but I'm not really sure how my strength thing works so... Oh, I don't feel any pain either but that's not really a kick ass move. That's all I've got in my inventory of power," I chuckle out. "Ha, I'm sure you have plenty more in your inventory, we just need figure out what it is," Adam says. I look at the twins and think about the deal we will be making after class, their emerald eyes glow with curiosity whilst looking at me and something else flashes in their eyes that I can't quite make out.

Cole teaches me a basic stance and shows me how to protect myself with my arms raised in front of my face, elbows tucked in. Sebastian comes and stands a few feet in front of me, "Ready love?" I chuckle remembering all the times I've used my strength on him. "Bring it bloodsucker." He smirks at me in response and puts on a fake pout. I raise my hand to protect myself and I blink, in the time it took to blink Sebastian has me pinned to the hardwood floor. He's straddling my legs and leaning over me with a vicious smirk, "You forgot I can be fast when I want to be love" I growl up at his face which is only a couple inches from mine and realise just how close we are. My cheeks instantly heat and fire travels ravenously down to my core.

"Hmm, you smell better when your aroused than scared, I'll have to remember that," He says whilst leaning down to my neck. Within a second, he's yanked up by the back of his t-shirt by Adam. I see Cole just behind him as if he was going to do the same thing. Eden holds his hand out to me which I take and get hefted up. Adam is doing something to Sebastion, something dark. Sebastians face is screwed up in agony whilst blood pours out of his nose. "Don't touch her like that," Adam seethes at Sebastian. Sebastian splutters on blood but still manages a wide smile. He turns round sharply and manages to latch his mouth around Adams wrist, the one that's holding him up in the air. I'm frozen to the spot, I need to do something, I know I do but I don't have a fucking clue what. I take a step forward but then Wards in front of me blocking my way.
