Chapter 0350 "What is the meaning of this?" Silas snarled as he stepped forth, buttoning his pants, still shirtless and without shoes. He wasn't pleased by her tone, and as he stepped in front of me, her eyes flashed slightly gold. "What are you doing flying around with her," she snapped in a low tone, "you know that isn't allowed." Allowed? Were we supposed to have gotten permission? "If you don't recall, Inanna, you have no authority over me." It was clear as day that Silas and Inanna didn't like each other, and as her eyes turned to me, she gavea sickly sweet grin as she raised a brow crossing her arms over her chest. "No, but I do over her." "Say what-" I muttered softly as Silas held out an arm holdingback to which I clung. Tension was high, and the woman I had seen before around school didn't seem like the swoman in front ofnow. "She is still a student at our school and, therefore, under my control and protection." Tired of the currently unfolding, I shook my head in disbelief as laughter left my lips. I wasn't trying to be disrespectful, but as both of them turned to me, I planned on making one thing very clear-I took orders from no one. "Look, lady, I'm an adult and under no one's control." Inanna didn't like the fact I spoke to her the way I did as her smile fell, and she narrowed her gaze. Again, I wasn't trying to be disrespectful, but for her to speak aboutas she had, as if I was still a child, was uncalled for. "You obviously don't understand how things work here—" "Stop," I quickly snapped, cutting her off. "I have gotten the gist of it, and honestly, you're interrupting our date. So do you mind?" The fact I was speaking to her like this seemed to shock Silas, but with a small smile on his face, he turned his gaze fromback to Inanna and shrugged his shoulders. He wasn't obviously going to argue with what I said, and with a scowl on her face, it didn't seem Inanna was either.

I wasn't sure why she felt the need to cout here like she had, and from how Silas looked at her when she left, it seemed he may have been confused as well. "What was that all about?" I asked him, watching his gaze hesitate a little longer on where she had disappeared before turning to me.
"Honestly, I don't know," he muttered, turning back to where we had been enjoying ourselves. Reaching down, he picked up his shirt and continued getting dressed, a sense of tension now spiraling between us as he remained silent.
I hated how the wonderful evening we were having was ruined because Inanna had shown up throwing a fit about Silas takingup in the sky. None of it felt right, and yet as he pulled his shirt on and slowly began to do the buttons, I felt a putt to him I had avoided in the past.
Stepping towards him, I slowly reached up, letting my hands brush against the muscles of his back, causing him to freeze in his spot before turning slowly to face me. I wasn't sure what I was doing, but something insidetoldhe was more than he let on.

me?" I whispered, staring at him for ssort of answer. I was tired of people keeping secrets frommy whole life, and as much as I was ET. growing fond of my conversations with Silas, I didn't want him to be another person on the list of people who hid shit from me.
"I don't know what that was about, Cassie. However, I think you may need to fidigmore into who you are to find out. It seems there are things even I don't know here."
His hand brushed strands of my hair from my face before he reached down and kissed the conecomу loved of my lips ever so gently. Part ofwanted more, but from the way he pulled back, staring down at me, I knew that wouldn't be the case.
