Chapter 11: This Is What He Gave Up.

Lessie’s Standpoint

Later That Night.

The floor was still a bit wet, my mop was in the corner, and I felt so tired from acting like I knew how to clean.

I wiped my hands on my jeans and looked at Lena. She was at her desk, looking at a book and writing fast in a notebook.

She had been quiet since she got mad at me.

I moved a bit, looking at the shut closet and thinking about asking her to pick out a dress for me to wear to the event. I cleared my throat.

"Hey… Lena?"

She did not turn. "What?"

I stopped. This was hard. We were not friends. Just roommates, really.

"I was thinking if maybe…" I stopped, swallowing. "You could pick a dress for me?"

That made her stop.

Slowly, she turned to me. "A dress? For what?"

"The Equinox Celebration," I said, lifting my head some. "I'm going… with Trent."

Her eyes went wide. "You mean Trent?"

I blinked. "Yeah… Trent."

Lena put her pen down. "You mean Trent, the Trent? Like, Trent Maddox, the big deal in the Pack? T

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   the end

    Chapter 240Author's POVA few months had passed, Lessie was in labor.She had already been in labor for three unbearable hours, and each of her cries were like a knife cutting through Duaine's heart. He was walking to and fro outside the delivery room, his usual haughty posture of the Alpha he used to be completely gone, the man looked like a powerless and naked one, his fists were tightly shut, and his forehead was deeply wrinkled from anxiety. "Please," he spoke softly to himself, looking up to the sky, "don't take them from me. Not her. Not now." Duaine finally ceased his pacing and took in a big breath. "She has been in pain for so long, Shane. What if something goes wrong?The man got up from his chair and offered a soothing hand to Duaine. "Nothing will go wrong, you have to have patience and trust that it will not. My daughter, she is bull-headed. She does not surrender easily not even to pain."At last, after a long time, a flicker of a smile was on the face of Duaine almo

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   chapter 239

    Chapter 239Lessie's POVThe return trip to Alpha Duaine’s pack was rather taxing and hot. My dad spoke to me in private, and Alpha Duaine did not say anything throughout.Whenever I looked at Alpha Duaine, sitting on the opposite side from me, I couldn't possibly know what he was feeling by his expression.I was so eager to understand why he saved me. What more than his hesitation after everything I've done, the stabbing and the torture, would he be for me? But, I could not articulate how I felt because my throat was too tightly closed. Perhaps, he was only polite or perhaps this was his way of silencing and punishing me.My father sat next to me, not a word, occasionally placing his hand on top of mine just to let me know I wasn't alone. But he was very much present in the whole experience. He had seen death, seen Dylan die and then he realized how stupid he was to have trusted the wrong people and so he cried.The moment we reached Alpha Duaine's pack, I was caught off guard by the

    Chapter 238Author's POVShouting echoed everywhere, with some running in safety and others on the floor and their ceremonial garb getting trampled upon. The sound of clashing swords and silverware could be heard across the ballroom and between it two men stood firm, Duaine and Dylan, locked in a battle of wills.There was very much tension between them, so intense that one could feel it present in the air. Dylan surprised by moving at lightning speed, his claws extending like bolts of lightning, and his eyes bursting out an incredibly bright red light.Duaine was waiting for him and not giving him a second's glance, he blocked with his forearm and then with all his strength he punched Dylan in the middle of his chest, and he slid across the marble floor.The Alphas were simply watching the action in front of them and no one wanted to be the first to interfere. It was not a battle, it was revenge that had been building for years.A low growl slipped from Dylan, he had morphed into his

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   Chapter 237

    Chapter 237Lessie's POV"I do not consent to this marriage." Alpha Duaine repeated.After that, Alpha Duaine took a step forward. Gradually, Each his step was full of the power that made even the whispers that had begun to spread among the people silent. "I said," he continued, his voice calm but lethal," I do not approve of this wedding". He passed me a fiery look that lasted for a few seconds that rendered me motionless. “Because she is going to tie the knot with a person whose love for her is non-existent and because she is my mate, I will just not allow that to happen.”I was caught by surprise and could not articulate my thoughts. He had just done it, he had called me his mate in front of all the Alphas and Lunas. His mate? A cold feeling invaded my body as I realized that I was motionless."What do you think you are doing here, Duaine?" Dylan hissed, stepping closer, his voice quivering with suppressed fury. "You dare barge into my territory, mess with my ceremony, and now you

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   chapter 236

    Chapter 236Lessie's POVThe two day period lapsed.I had suffered such a nightmarish experience of despair against the universe that instead of prolonging and hardening the daunting ordeal, time was simply elapsing.The day of the wedding dawned, steeped in a near-mystical serenity that had my heart penned in the sharpest invisible but torturously sharp pangs.By my side stood a large mirror, where I checked out my appearance. The white wedding dress that was lovely appeared to be silk and the lace sleeves were so softly hugging my arms.My hair was curly with soft waves and the front had a few very fine strands hanging over my gorgeous face. Around my neck was a shimmering crystal necklace of which my dad had insisted since he claimed it once belonged to my mother.My maid was closing the last of my pearl earrings.I was going to explode in laughter.The creaking doors grumbled and my dad came in. He had never been a serious man, but when he gazed at me, I saw a very feeble and flee

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   chapter 235

    Chapter 235Lessie's POVI was so anxious that I paced back and forth in my room, as soon as I heard the soft knock, I hurriedly opened the door, and there she was, Lena."Lena,” I took her hand as soon as she was in and closed the door. "Did you give it to him?"She nodded. "Yes. I gave it to him face to face."I became rigid and tightened my hold on her wrist. "Face to face? You mean you really met him?"She nodded again. "I did."I swallowed hard."What did he say he was going to do when he was done reading it?" I asked.Lena was watching the floor. "He said he would be coming for you soon."I was still stunned and could only blink. "For me?" "Yes. Those were his exact words."Lena took a seat next to me, her face showing a mix of understanding and fear even. "I am not sure what he has in store, Lessie. But one thing I am quite sure about is that he was serious. His eyes,” She stopped, looking for the right word. “They did not look a man wanting revenge. They looked like a man wit
