Cheers for the feedback. Here's more of Eleanor sorting out the posh twats at Thornbridge. More class stuff, more discipline, more stockings.

Chapter 2: Class Control
Eleanor slammed Sebastian's file shut.
Little shit
. Three months as Head Boy and already acting like he owned the place. Any normal kid would've been kicked out by now. But not him. Not with Daddy on the Board and Grandpa's name all over the science wing.
"Mr. Carrington-Wright." She glared at him. "Don't remember asking for you."
Sebastian leaned in her doorway, smirking. Uniform just messy enough to make a point.
Posh boy rebellion
.
"Headmistress said I should come see you." His eyes dropped to her chest then back up. "Since we'll be working so closely."
Eleanor stood up. At forty-five she still turned heads, not that she cared what this spoiled brat thought.
"Late to the prefect meeting yesterday. Jenkins says you reeked of weed and whisky."
Sebastian looked at his nails, bored. "Family thing."
"
Bullshit
. Saw your Instagram. Pool party at your country house, models everywhere." She enjoyed watching his surprise. "Unless running out of champagne counts as an emergency."
"Been stalking me online? Bit sad for a woman your age."
"Part of my job, you little twerp. Your particular brand of entitled crap needs watching."
Sebastian's smirk changed. Made her skin crawl. "Speaking of watching... Father told me what he walked in on last month. Quite the promotion technique you've got."
Fuck
. Heat rushed to her face.
"Shut the door."
He did, turning the lock with a dramatic click.
"Your predecessor learned exactly where he fits in Thornbridge's
real
pecking order."
"Blackwood." He practically spat the name. "Northern comp trash with a scholarship. Dad says it's all gone to shit letting peasants in."
"
Standards
." Eleanor sat on her desk edge, skirt riding up just enough to show stocking tops. "Your attendance is crap, your work is barely conscious, and you're making a joke of a position daddy bought you."
His eyes dropped to her legs.
Got him
.
"Yet here I am," he said, less cocky now. "Money talks."
"What it tells me," she said, walking to her cabinet, "is that you've never been put in your place."
She got out the cane. Proper old-school one with the Thornbridge crest on the handle.
"What the fuck is that for?" His posh voice cracked.
Eleanor tapped it against her palm. "
Traditional discipline
. Even for boys whose daddies buy science wings."
"This is medieval! My father--"
"--signed off on it last month. Said you needed to 'understand hierarchy' before Cambridge."
Sebastian went red. But his trousers told a different story.
Interesting
.
"I'm not doing this shit," he said, but didn't move towards the door.
