As Axel sits down in the classroom, his scarlet eyes scan the classroom, not to look for you, but to find anyone ogling at you. Of course he knows where you sit. Axel finds one guy smiling as he sits beside you, seemingly sketching your pretty face on a white piece of paper.
Axel glares harshly at this boy, having plotted his already, next murder…

Beside you, the vampire hisses, "What did you just say?" His voice carries throughout the classroom, making people turn their heads toward you and him. It was a warning for that boy to shut up, but he'd obviously make Axel kill him later in front of everyone... for now he continues glaring at the student with hate burning in his scarlet eyes.

Axel snorts derisively, glaring at you next. "Don't tell me what to do," he whispers back, his voice laced with warning. It didn't escape him how close you had become to the other boy. Was this some sort of trap? He would deal with it later, when they were alone... for now, his focus shifted back to the teacher.

"Kindness has no place in my world," Axel hisses, his eyes narrowing as he tries to keep himself composed. It was becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the way you were leaning into that boy, your hair brushing against his arm... He didn't trust it. He hated sharing you with anyone else. "I should kill him just to make an example," he whispers venomously under his breath.

He looks away from you and the other boy, eyes focused on the teacher droning on about some history he could care less about. It's hard to keep his hands still; they seem to have a mind of their own as they twitch restlessly in his lap. But he won't do anything yet... not unless you push him too far.

He glances back at the other boy, making sure he's keeping an eye on him while pretending to ignore your closeness. The urge to claim what's rightfully his burns inside him like acid eating away at his resolve. He needs to find a way to make you understand... or perhaps punishments would be more effective.

Axel purses his lips, turning to look at you with annoyance in his crimson eyes. He wanted to snap something back, but he manages to keep himself composed for now. Instead, he tilts his head slightly, studying your expression. It was unlike you to defy him like this... did something happen between the two of you?

The vampire narrows his eyes further, searching for any sign of weakness in your body language. He doesn't want to have to resort to force, but he won't back down either. This was a test, and he needs to know where he stands with you.

Axel remains silent, his gaze fixed on you. He doesn't know what game you're playing, but he won't be the one to back down first. For now, he content himself with maintaining eye contact and waiting for you to break it. He needs to see your submission; only then will he give you a chance to explain yourself.

Axel's cold eyes bore into yours, his body tense as he waits for you to look away. He won't show any signs of weakness; the only thing that matters is maintaining control over this situation. His heart races with anticipation, wondering what will happen if you truly do defy him.

His eyes widen in surprise as you slide over to sit beside him, breathing a sigh of relief. The knot in his stomach begins to unwind at your explanation, but his body still tenses when he feels the other boy brush against your arm. "He's not your best friend anymore," he whispers harshly, glaring daggers at the boy who dares touch you.

"I'll do whatever I want." Axel hisses, eyes still fixed on the other boy. "But you're mine now." He puts a possessive hand on your shoulder, squeezing gently as a warning of what will happen if anyone else tries to get close. For now, he focuses on the teacher again, but the tension in his body remains high and ready.

"If I have to," Axel whispers dangerously, not taking his eyes off the other boy. "But I'd rather not get my hands dirty in front of everyone." His grip on your shoulder tightens fractionally, warning you that it's better for both of you if he doesn't do anything right now. But the threat remains; you will be his and no one else's.

"It's alright," Axel says softly, still glancing at the other boy, "but remember that next time." His grip on your shoulder loosens slightly as he turns his attention back to you. It was easy for him to trust you now that you were back where you belonged, but he wouldn't let his guard down completely. He would never trust anyone else enough to do so.

"Let's just finish class quietly," he murmurs, "and we can discuss things later."

Axel returns the kiss with equal fervor, his free hand coming to cradle your head. He's lost in the heat of the moment, his thoughts scattered like leaves in a storm. For this brief eternity, there is only you and him, and nothing else matters. "Mine," he whispers hoarsely against your lips as they part, their tongues tangling in a desperate dance of possession.

It's only when the teacher clears his throat that Axel snaps back to reality, blushing furiously at how obvious they must have been. With one last glance at the boy who tried to take what was his and failed miserably, he forces himself to focus on the lesson once more. His hand remains on your shoulder, keeping you close as they endure the rest of class in relative silence.

As the class continues, Axel's gaze drifts occasionally back to you, eyes softening with affection and possessiveness. His hand tightens on your shoulder as he feels his body responding to yours in ways that send shivers down his spine. He wonders idly how much longer it will be until they could escape this place altogether...

When the bell finally rings, signaling the end of class, Axel is the first one out of his seat, tugging you along with him. The vampire glances back once more at the boy who dared to come between them earlier, a promise burning brightly in his crimson eyes. He would never forgive or forget... not as long as he lived. But for now, he had you to focus on.

With one last quick kiss before they head off in opposite directions toward their next class, Axel whispers against your lips, "I'll see you soon."

Axel returns the hug, pressing his body against yours as tightly as he dares, savoring the warmth and comfort that only you can provide. "Until then," he whispers back, his lips brushing against your ear. His free hand gently cups your cheek before trailing down to your shoulder, where it linger there for a moment before slipping away.

With a final smile, he releases you and takes one step back, turning to head toward his next class as well. He knows that they have much to discuss later tonight; secrets will be revealed, promises made and kept... until then, he'll content himself with the knowledge that you are his and nothing can change that.

As Axel walks away, he glances back one last time to make sure you're really gone. His heart aches with longing, but the satisfaction of knowing that he has you under his control helps ease the pain. For now, he focuses on getting through his classes, eyes constantly scanning the room for any signs of danger or betrayal.

The thought of spending time alone with you later tonight fills him with anticipation and dread all at once; he knows that their conversation will not be an easy one. But no matter what, he vows to keep you safe from harm... even if it means doing the unthinkable.

In the midst of his classes, Axel can't help but smile as he thinks about spending time with you later tonight. He chuckles to himself at your infectious personality and how easily you make him forget everything else around him. Even in the face of danger, just being near you gives him a sense of peace that nothing else can match. The thought of claiming you completely later on only serves to heighten his excitement and anticipation for what lies ahead.

It felt good to know that, despite all the trouble and danger surrounding them, Axel could still find solace in your presence. He was grateful for the small moments they shared together, even if it meant hiding their love from the world around them. And as much as he feared what might happen when the time came for everything to come out into the open, he knew that as long as he had you by his side, nothing else mattered.

The thought of being with you tonight fills him with both happiness and anxiety. He knows that soon, they will have to confront their past and make decisions about their future. But for now, he can lose himself in the simple pleasure of your company. The anticipation is almost unbearable as he imagines what it will feel like to finally be free with you, unencumbered by secrets or lies.

As classes finally begin to end, Axel's heart races at the thought of having you back in his arms once more. The memories they shared together flood his mind, leaving him breathless and aching for more. He glances down at his wrist, where a delicate bracelet encircles his skin, a reminder of their love even when they're apart. With one final deep breath, he gathers his things and readies himself for the most important moment of their lives thus far.

After what felt like an eternity, the last bell finally rings and you hurry over to him, a bright smile on your face that immediately warms his heart. Axel takes your hand in his, feeling the familiar warmth of your skin against his own, and can't help but beam back at you as he leads you away from the school grounds and toward their private hideout.

As they make their way through the nighttime city streets, Axel finds himself unable to keep his eyes off of you; you look so beautiful in the moonlight, your hair shining like silver thread amidst the shadows. The thought that soon he'll be able to reveal his true feelings to you only serves to make his heart race even faster.

With each step you take, your hand squeezes his tighter, leaving no doubt in his mind that you feel the same way about him as he does about you. It's a comforting sensation that helps to ease some of his anxiety and focus him on what truly matters: being with you and protecting your love from whatever dangers may lurk outside their hidden world. As they finally reach the secluded spot where they can be alone together, Axel looks deep into your eyes, searching for any sign of fear or hesitation. But all he sees is trust... and hope. Taking a shaky breath, he gathers his courage and begins to speak. "I have something important to tell you."
