Hot Chapters

CHAPTER 1: FIRST HEARTBREAK

I wonder how much trouble I’ll get into if I pour scalding coffee all over Professor Lincoln or stab the hand he’s running down my arm with a fork. I grimace, hoping it passes off as a polite smile as I pull my arm away from his. “I understand, Professor; I’ll get the papers to you on Monday, I promise.” Elias Lincoln, my Fundamentals of Genetics Professor and the biggest sleazebag to walk the planet, leers at me, his mud-colored eyes raking my body in a way that makes me shiver with disgust. “You know, April,” he says huskily, “as my TA, I expect more from you.”

CHAPTER 2: I'D RATHER EAT SHIT

The first time I set eyes on Nathan Ashford, I was sixteen. He’d just transferred to my school, and I thought he was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen. He was gorgeous, and smart, and popular, and talented, and I loved him. But then, in senior year, my lab partner’s boyfriend, a member of the football team, threw a party, and she forced me to go. I didn’t realize that as the glorified nerd I was, I would stick out like a sore thumb. And when it came time to play the stereotypical truth or dare game, as a joke, someone dared me to kiss the boy I found the most attractive. And when I stupidly went to kiss Nathan, he jumped away like I had a contagious disease. Then declared to the whole party—the whole school, basically—that he would rather eat shit than kiss me.

CHAPTER 3: IDEAL BRIDE

“Which one do you want?” “Lucas, duh. He’s the eldest and has more to inherit.” “I want Peter, he seems like a sweetheart.” “Nathan is the best looking by far, we’d make gorgeous babies.” I bite my lip, wishing I didn’t have to listen to the chatter all around me. But Rover is a campus hangout spot, and the Ashfords have heavy influence on campus. It’s no wonder a vast majority of the students are interested in the selection. “Oh look, they’re interviewing them now!” a girl squeals, and suddenly, the usually muted TV has sound. “So tell me, Nathan, what is your ideal bride like?” A chuckle. “To be honest, I’m not really picky.”

CHAPTER 4: NATHAN ASHFORD

“Is this some sort of joke?” I ask, my voice barely above a whisper. Gabriel shakes his head. “No, ma’am; your application was reviewed and you were shortlisted.” “But I didn’t submit an application.” Gabriel turns away from me and faces his companions. “Take him away,” he instructs, pointing to Professor Lincoln. Then, he turns to the subject in question. “You’ll be disciplined accordingly; say goodbye to your job.” Lincoln sneers as he stands. “I have tenure, you bastard, you can’t do shit to—” His face snaps to the left, the sound of the slap Gabriel gives him resounding through the coffee shop. “Tenure doesn’t mean shit when you mess with the Ashfords.”
