Chapter 47

Lessie's POV

The weekend was going to stretch out and feel torturously boring.

This type of weekend, it feels like the walls are choking in and nothing short of an infinite stack of books or pacing back and forth for hours can prevent your head from getting sucked into a void pit of emptiness.

I'd already cleaned up my room twice, sorted my shoes by color, and now I stared out the balcony long enough that I could chart clouds without seeing them.

I needed something, anything at all to spice up the day. That was why I went down to the kitchen again after my previous encounter with my maid.

The same immaculately clean, sleek kitchen with all the appliances and ingredients in the world at one's fingertips, but completely out of bounds for people like me, Alpha’s order.

I snuck in quietly, hoping to be able to surprise my maid, but her expression stiffened the moment that I walked in.

"Miss Lessie," she said in an uncertain and anxious tone, "please don't say you're here

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   chapter 89

    Chapter 89Lessie's POV"Do you not know how to knock before entering a lady’s room?" I asked immediately.I could hear the bristle in my own voice, the clip of every word chasing out anger and irritation. It wasn't so much that he'd come storming in. It was that the letter still filled my head, the words of my father like small hooks catching in my brain, “If you really know the truth about what happened to your brother, you won't be with Duiane today.”Dave looked shocked with what I had just said to him but he regained himself almost immediately. "My apologies, my lady," he said as he bowed his head respectfully. "I didn’t know you were around my lady, I thought you were out with Alpha Duiane."I furrowed my brow. Even if I was out with Alpha Duiane, why would you just charge into my personal quarters like the place is yours to begin with?That wasn't what I said to him though. Instead, I folded my arms across my chest and kept staring at me. "Well, I certainly am not out with him.

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   chapter 88

    Chapter 88Lessie's POVThe following morning, I was disturbed from my slumber by a gentle yet persistent knocking on my door, which woke me up from the coziness of my blankets. For a little while, I considered letting it go for whoever it might come back later. But then was the knock once more, louder this time, and I could hear my maid's muffled, unsure voice."My lady, a letter arrived for you."A letter?That was peculiar. Almost no one sent me private letters anymore, not here at least, not with Alpha Duiane watching every square inch of this place with her guards. My heart did a little, unaccountable skip, like it already knew who it might be from.I stood up, my hair over my face, and mumbled, "Enter.""Someone stuffed it into the letter box this morning," she said. "I don't think anyone saw him. He left before I even had the chance to greet him."I opened my hand, took the envelope from her, and tried to be polite."Thank you," I said to her.She hovered there for an instant,

    Chapter 87Lessie's POVThe garden.That was the first thing my mind could think of the moment I recalled Alpha Duiane's words.He'd placed her in his favorite garden.The same garden that I had been instructed to avoid, the garden I had always believed was simply. private. Holy, maybe. Now I understood why. It wasn't holy to him, it was holy because it held the body and memories of someone who had meant everything to him.My heart tightened.Does that mean he still loves her or care about her in death?I think, he still did. She passed away because of him. It would be selfish for him not to keep that love, even in remembrance, for the rest of his lifetime. But if that love is still within him, at least partially, does that make the love that he has for me inferior to what he felt for her? I said to myself.I kept twisting my fingers which I placed on the table, my food still left uneaten. I saw him watching me, as if he was trying to read every single thought that was happening in

  • My Professor, My Enemy, My Mate   chapter 86

    Chapter 86Duiane's POVSomething I've learned about Lessie after our short time together is that she is stubborn and peaceful at once, a deadly mixture when you're trying to hide something from someone. She doesn't just stop asking for answers. She just sits quietly, staring at you with those impenetrable eyes of hers that seem to strip away each of the facades you must have been building to protect yourself.And she was looking at me just like that at the moment. I knew exactly what was going on in her mind.She wanted to know something about Anna.I might have gone on lying, might have said again that it was not something she needed to be informed of, but that would not discourage her. Lessie was not the type to leave a question hanging after having asked it. I could already picture her tagging behind me for days, slipping in the same question in variations of tones, trying to piece together pieces until she'd heard every detail.It wasn't that I didn't wish to share it with her.

    Chapter 84Dylan's POVThere was silence in the room after my beta vowed to do everything. For a moment, I thought he would leave as he did every time I sent him away, but he did not move. He just stood there, his arms behind his back, looking at me like he was weighing if he should speak or not.I raised an eyebrow. "You're still here," I stated, my voice had a trace of irritation. "Is there something more you'd like to say?"He paused. I saw the flash of doubt in his eyes before he finally spoke. "Alpha, I apologize for overstepping, but is it only Shane's daughter you're willing to marry?"I stood rigid, the words echoing in my head. I moved gradually towards him, my gaze piercing and unwavering. "What did you just say?"My beta swallowed, but continued. "I merely asked because I have a cousin. She is a good person, well-raised and strong. She has always looked up to you, Alpha. Always spoke of you in respect and admiration. If getting a Luna is the goal, then”…"Enough." The word
