Our Little Secret: In Love With My Professor 185. One Down
Albert stood in place and then let go of Edward's hand that he had been holding.“You… you… how…?” Adrian tried speaking but no words could come out and Albert just stood there looking at his brother. His face was so calm that it was giving Adrian jitters.Not able to withstand the pressure anymore, Adrian made as if to run away as he held the baby tightly in his embrace.Albert moved with a speed and grace that made the air shimmer, his golden eyes locked onto Adrian and held him in place. Behind him, Edward, pale and hair now white again from the ordeal, steadied himself, but his gaze was sharp and unwavering. Both were alive, focused, and radiating a power that Adrian could feel in his bones.He stumbled backward, still clutching the swaddled baby, his mind scrambling to comprehend the impossible. How had they found him? How had they anticipated his every move? How had Albert survived because Adrian could swear that he had killed Albert? The forest air felt heavy, almost electric,
Our Little Secret: In Love With My Professor 184. The Shadow’s Reckoning
Bibi Kamwe’s footsteps were silent over the cracked pavement, the soft crunch of debris beneath her boots drowned by the distant hum of the forest they had left behind. She had buried Albert and made sure to cast several wards so that no one would ever find his grave.In her arms, she carried a small bundle, one of the two babies she had taken from the chaos earlier, swaddled tight against her chest and a backpack containing the placenta and the umbilical cords. Beside her, Adrian… or Aiden, as he liked being called, moved with measured grace, eyes sharp and calculating. He was halfway through his plan and all that remained was to show up before Edward, beaten and half dead, crying and telling him how he was able to save one baby from Bibi Kamwe who had taken Albert. He was sure that Edward didn't know that Albert was carrying twins.He wasn't worried because the two of them, Adrian and Bibi Kamwe, had survived chaos that would have broken most. They had outmaneuvered enemies, evaded
Our Little Secret: In Love With My Professor 183. The Weight of a Crown
AlbertI woke to silence so complete that it felt like sound had been stripped from the world.For a long moment, I didn’t move. I didn’t need to. The forest breathed around me, no, with me, and I felt it the way one feels their own pulse. Slow. Deep. Ancient.My body lay on a bed of crushed leaves and darkened soil. The air smelled of iron and rain and moonlight. Blood streaked my arms, my chest, my thighs, too much blood, dried and fresh all at once, but when I lifted my hand, there was no pain. No ache. No weakness.I sat up slowly, half-expecting the familiar dizziness, the echo of wounds reopening, the reminder that I was still breakable but it never came. I guess the blood I lost when Aiden ripped me open was returned to me.My skin was unmarked beneath the blood. Not a scratch. Not even tenderness. I pressed my fingers into my ribs, my stomach, my throat, nothing. Perfect. Whole.Alive in a way I had never been before. My breath caught.The last time I had felt like this, I had
Our Little Secret: In Love With My Professor 182. When the Bond Screamed
EdwardThe bond did not fade gently. It snapped.Not cleanly, such things are never clean, but like sinew torn from bone, like something alive screaming as it was wrenched apart. I staggered mid-step and gasped as I held my chest.Air left my lungs in a violent ush, my knees buckling as if the earth itself had struck me. One moment Albert had been there, faint and distant, but present, and the next there was nothing. No warmth. No pull. No answering echo to my heartbeat.Just silence.“No,” I whispered, the word scraping raw from my throat.The world tilted. My vision blurred, not from injury, not from exhaustion, but from a terror so sudden and complete that it hollowed me out. I clutched at my chest like I could physically grab the bond, like I could hold it in place if I pressed hard enough.Nothing answered. All was silent.I had known pain all my life. I had known wounds that split flesh and shattered bone. I had known the agony of loss.But this… this was worse. This was losing
Our Little Secret: In Love With My Professor 181. The Threshold
AlbertDeath is not darkness. That was the first lie I had believed.Darkness implies absence. To me, it was like an empty room, a door closed, a world gone quiet. But what claimed me was not absence. It was pressure. A vast, crushing stillness that pressed against me from every direction, as if the universe itself had leaned in close and whispered, Enough.I did not fall into it. No. I was taken. I was forced into it.There was no pain at first. Pain requires nerves, breath, a body still arguing with life. I had none of those. I was awareness stripped bare, floating in a place where time did not move forward or backward. It only waited. And in that waiting, I felt them.Not voices.Not faces.Presences and it made my unconscious self jolt.They were two small lights, fragile and impossibly bright, brushing past me like moth wings against my soul. My babies. They did not cry. They did not reach. They only paused. I felt them linger at the edge of me, as if curious, as if reluctant to
Our Little Secret: In Love With My Professor 180. Ripped
Albert“Albert, decide. For the sake of our familial ties, I don't want to hurt you. But if you continue being stubborn, you will force my hand,” Aiden said as if he was a saint.I looked up at him and despite the pain I was in, I chuckled.“Familial ties? Did you think about familial ties when you kidnapped me, brother? Did you think about familial ties when you colluded with this witch to kill me? Do mom and dad know what you did to me? Do they know what you are doing to me now? So, Aiden, if you want to kill me, go ahead but don't think that you and I are family. We ceased to be a long time ago and the fact that I didn't tell mom about what you did to me wasn't because I love you. It was because I love her and I would hate to see her get hurt,” I said and as I finished saying that, another contraction hit.This one was so intense that I stretched my body on the floor and writhed in pain as I felt my pelvic tear.“Mama, we can't hold on anymore," I heard a voice tell me but when I s
