Arranged

Progress

"Um.. yes ma'am. I enrolled early, I did it my senior year, last year?" I say.

"Let me see here." she says, typing on her computer. "And what's your name, darling?" she asks me.

"Kyla. Kyla-"

"Augestine! Oh, it's a pleasure to have you here! I was so excited when you accepted our offer. You're a smart girl, we're happy to have you. I'll print off a schedule and put you in the system to go here. Thank you very much!" she says, shaking my hand.

"And from now on, she'll go by Kyla Reed." Vixen interjects.

The woman looks from him to me and smiles.

"No problem!" she says.

"I'll be here at 4:30. And don't keep me waiting. I'm not a patient man." he says.

I walk off and I take a look at my schedule. The first class I go to is Calculus, so I ask my way around and I eventually make it. I take a seat and a minute or two later, I hear someone whispering to me.

"Psst!" she signals. "Hey, you!" she whispers.

I look up and around until I see a girl waving at me.

"Did you need something?" I ask.

"Your name? Mine is Lyilah. Lyilah Standoff. I'm a first year. You?" she says, holding out her hand."

I take her hand and I shake it, smiling warmly at her.

"Kyla Augestine." I reply.

"Let me see your schedule." says Lyilah. I hand it to her and she smiles brightly. "We have all of the same classes! Wanna be friends?" she asks, raising her eyebrow at me.

"Sure. I'd like that." I say, smiling.

My phone pings with a text, so I open it and it's from Vixen.

I put my phone away and I look over at Lyilah who's smiling at me, handing my schedule back.

"Thank you." I say.

"You're welcome. Today should be fun." she says.

I sure as hell hope it is.

After math, writing, foreign language, and a psychology class along with a nursing one, it's the end of the day and I'm worn out. I stand out in front of the university, waiting on Vixen to show up when some guy bumps into me.

"What the hell? Watch where you're going!" I say.

I turn around and I see a tall man, about 6 foot 3 and he turns around smiling while his other friends crowd around me.

"You're pretty. What's your name?" he asks, a devious smirk on his face.

"I heard it was Kyla." one of his other friends say.

"Kyla? That's a pretty name. You wanna catch lunch together tomorrow? Maybe we could hook up."

What the hell is this guy thinking?

"What the hell?! Get away from me!"

"Come on, baby, give me a chance, don't you wanna know what this is like?" he says, grabbing his dick through his pants.

This is fucking sick.

All of a sudden I hear a car door close and I can feel Vixen's dominant aura behind me. "Step the fuck away." he says, grabbing my wrist and giving these guys a death stare.

"Look at this guy, who does he think he-"

He's cut off by a punch to the face from Vixen. He lies on the ground, writhing as his friends try and help him from the ground.

"Damnit." Vixen mutters, shaking his hand.

Blood pours from the other guy's nose as every single person outside looks at me and Vixen. Lyilah runs up to me and hugs me.

"Are you alright?" she asks. "I should've warned you about them. I've heard about that group. They're third years, they like to prey on fresh meat." she says.

"Kyla!" Vixen yells from the car. He's looking at me with a calm expression as he sits in the car.

"I'll see you tomorrow Lyilah. Thanks for caring so much." I say.

I walk off and I go to the car, sitting with my head down as we drive back home.
