Mated To my Professor

Loud cheers rang out from the hallway. Students, fleeing from the prom dance floor, ran towards the scene, grinning. Following the footsteps of the cheers, a strange heaviness knotted my gut. My heart was throbbing, daring to rip out of its cage. With slow and heavy steps, I approached the direction of the cheer.What’s going on? I wondered, placing a hand on my chest. My classmates had formed a big circle around something going on then I heard my boyfriend’s voice say: “to the love of my life..” “What the heck?” I pushed through the heaviness of prom dresses, earning groanings and frowns. Then I made my way out and stood at the center. “Will you be my girlfriend and chosen mate?” Roger, my boyfriend, asked a petite blonde (Emily), one knee on the ground as he held a clearly fake diamond ring to her finger. “I promise I can’t live without you.’ “Yes, baby!” She grinned, sliding her finger into the ring.My entire body began to tremble, a loud ringing sound filled my ears. Roger go

The weekend arrived in a blink of an eye, and I was too broke for an outfit, so Raina had offered my current choice of costume: a skin-tight black, cat, leather, jumpsuit. . It had a pair of black earrings and a black cat ears headband attached to it. Plus, it revealed more of my cleavage than I'd have liked, but since it was all I had, I stuck with it. I had an email from my Economics professor in my online class. “Hey, Class. Do not forget your homework deadline is today. It is the hard due date, so I won't accept any request for extensions. Also, please remember that our exams are coming up on the 1st of November, Monday, so please ensure you are studying for it, as it is worth 30% of your total grades. Goodluck and Happy Halloweens. Dr. Bri–'' I stopped reading.Great, another huge thing I had to remember. My grade was close to a D in that class, so I couldn’t dare to miss this exam, or I could lose all my scholarships. This professor was such a strict, annoying dude. Thank good

My heart dropped to my feet. He knew we were mates? That meant one thing…Not only was it strange that I found my second chance mate in Dentville, he was also a werewolf. A freaking werewolf. Strange goosebumps spread across me. The room was cold, but not cold enough to send chills down my body. Realizing he was still holding me, I assumed that whatever was going on with me had to do with touch (the whole mate bond nonsense). Stealing my hand from his grip, I asked, “How did you know I would come here today?”“I figured you would after realizing you were one of my students.”“But I didn’t even mention my name to you.” The fact that he was a werewolf as well made my brows furrow. “I ran away from every nonsense of the werewolf world. I want nothing to do with werewolves.”“Same, and that was why I came to find you.”"What the heck is that supposed to mean?" I glared. "That's not important." He stood up, “What is important right now is the deal I have for you.” “Deal?”“Yes.” He gav

Taking a minute to suck in a deep breath, I reminded myself that I wasn’t just meeting my mate, but also my professor. Talk about my exam, leave. That’s it. Once my breathing stabilized, I hit the bell and opened the door after the light turned green. Professor Brian's gray eyes lifted from the book he was reading, without lifting his head. "You're here sooner than I thought." Just the sound of his voice sent instant chills down my spine. "Sit." He ordered and that made a frown form on my face. Without another choice, I sauntered and sat across from him, my toes curling against my sandals. "Good evening.""Yeah. Give me a minute. I need to punch these grades in, then I'll attend to you." He said and I nodded. The silence in the room made me feel sweaty. My fingers were picking at my nails, my eyes wandering around in search of nothing specific. The few times I stole glances at him, I forgot how to breathe. His head of hair swung around as he moved, his gray eyes dancing like silent

'Good morning. How are you today?' A text from Brian popped up on my phone. Rolling in bed, I pursed my lips to hold back my smile. 'Good morning. I'm pretty well. Uow are you?' I texted back. 'Great too. What are you up to? Any plans for the weekend?' 'Not really. Just homework, class projects, and studying for your exam and homework. Come on dude, why is your homework so hard? This isn't Harvard! (Pouting emoji).'He responded with a laughing emoji, and that was it. I waited for the next couple of minutes till the colors that once flushed my cheeks faded. "Seriously?" I scoffed, tossing the phone on the bed and sat up. Raina's eyes were glued to me. We both maintained a silent eye contact till a smirk formed on her face. "You've been on the phone with someone lately." "Yeah, an old friend." I climbed off the bed. '"Just a friend, uh? It doesn't seem so. You've been grinning from ear to ear, blushing, squealing into your pillow, kicking your feet in the air, and laughing to yo
