She hates math!
After having her lunch she checked the time and she only had two minutes before the hell class would start. Picking up her bag and throwing the empty packets in a bin she walked to the restroom, washed her hands, adjusted her clothes, and went to her class.
The reason why she delayed going to the class was that Veronica and Jack were in this class as well.
She went inside and within a second, Jack hooted and before Veronica could utter a word, the head of the school walked in and everyone took their seats immediately.
In a hurry, Emma sat on the empty seat in the front rather than her usual seat at the back.
"Good afternoon class. I'm here to inform you about the sudden absence of Ms. Rebecca. Last night she was met with an accident." Gasps were heard all around and a wave of guilt washed over Emma who wished to not see Ms. Rebecca today.
"Her ribs got fractured and her left leg was broken. She's out of danger and currently in the hospital. It would take her a couple of months to a year or more to return to her duty." Slight nods of understanding were seen.
"So, we have a substitute teacher who will take Ms. Rebecca's place. Let me introduce you to your new math teacher. Mr. Xander Colt." As soon as the head said these words.
A man walked inside the classroom with slow powerful steps.
It was as if all the breath was knocked out of her system.
The man in front of her could be any freaking thing but a teacher. He was probably 6'2 with massive shoulders, the outline of his taut muscles could be seen through his shirt. The bulging muscles of his biceps were one thing but the black ink on his neck and hands was another thing. Her eyes found their way to his Adam Apple and then his sharp jaw with a trimmed black beard giving him a rugged look. Pursed lips in a thin line, straight nose with a slight crook at the nose bone as if it was broken once, and then her breath hitched when her eyes met with his sharp green ones. He was staring straight at her. Closing her mouth shut, she immediately looked down at her notes.
This was the same man from Range Rover.
And he's not old like other male teachers. He was very young, not in the lad's category more like in the men's category.
"I'll leave the class to you, Mr. Colt." She heard the voice of their head before his footsteps faded away.
"First and foremost important thing. I don't like disturbance." His deep rich voice resonated in the class.
Emma dares to look around only to find everyone gawking at the man the same as she did before.
"Open your books." He said loud enough for everyone to do as he said.
Mr. Colt strode towards the whiteboard and started solving a problem on it. The way his marker nip was hitting the board indicates how pissed off he was or perhaps he was this way only.
"Eyes on the board!" His voice was a little high which got everyone to flinch in their seats as they immediately looked at the board rather than him.
Emma was tense as a wooden board during the whole class and so was the situation with everyone else.
The fact that she was sitting in the front wasn't helping at all. Once in a while, Mr. Colt's gaze would fall on her and she would get extremely nervous. Never in her life has she missed her back seat more than today. The lesson to never sit in the first row was clear for her.
As soon as the class ends. Emma was fast to leave the classroom.
She went straight to her next class but her mind was still in her math class where she understood nothing but the man that was her teacher raked her mind throughout the next whole period.
As soon as the last bell rang. Emma sprinted out at a fast pace. When everyone goes back to their homes and rest, she has to earn her bread.
She was glad that Landon and his friends didn't appear in front of her after the morning incident.
Her eyes slowly darted towards the parking lot where that Range Rover stood out like a dominating Anaconda amongst small mice.
"I will buy you one day." She promised with a soft smile on her face as she walked to the bus stop.
Within twenty minutes she entered the small cafe where she works. Jogging to the restroom she immediately wore her uniform, placing her bag in the cabinet. She came out of the restroom to find Connor standing with a grin on his face. "Guess what?" He was excited, it was written all over his face.
"What?" She asked. "I've got selected for my school's soccer team." Connor grinned.
A wide smile appeared on her face and she forwarded her hand for a handshake and congratulated him.
Connor shook her hand. "Your birthday is in a week so I'll give you a treat on your birthday," Connor suggested, making a beautiful smile appear on her face.
Connor is the only person she genuinely trusts. Her only friend or family. She respects him a lot. And he cares for her a lot.
"I'll be delighted." She gave him her best pearly smile only to earn a flick smack of his finger on her forehead making her groan out in pain.
The audacity of Connor to laugh at her as he walked away to see the customers.
Emma ambled into the kitchen while rubbing her forehead where her colleague, Stacy stood.
"You're late Emma," Stacy said in a low voice so the owner couldn't hear her. "I missed my first bus," Emma said in a low apologetic voice, making Stacy nod.
Stacy was kinda the only friend Emma had except Connor. It's not friendship because Stacy joined this job just a week ago but up till now, both girls are good and kind to each other.
"W...why are you locking the door?" She stuttered but her breath hitched when he turned to face her. "What the fuck was Hunter saying?" He asked in low menace. Rasmus was always the calm type. It was the first time she was seeing him angry like this. "N...nothing. I need to go." She gulped before walking past him but he didn't let her leave. Grabbing her arm he pulled her back right in front of him. "What the fuck Hunter was saying?" He asked again, making her look away. There was anger in his olive green eyes. "He was joking. He wanted to rile you up. It was all our plan and it worked." She snapped at him. Snatching her arm from his hold she walked past him. Just when she was about to open the door. He swiveled her around and glared at her. Her wrist was in his hand. "Now what? I admit that I like you. I was just trying to make you jealous all these days so you would confess but you didn't and instead, you plotted your plan. Such a fox." He tsked. His eyes went from glaring at
Rasmus, Hunter, and Luca = 20 Sarah= Will turn 18 in this chapter. Aurora= 16 Angela= 10 "Em!" Connor wailed dramatically and the next thing he engulfed her in a bear hug. Emma couldn't help but let the tears out of joy. It was after so many years they were finally meeting. Though they talked on the phone often. Emma told him about Xabder after 4 years of her marriage. And she wasn't even ready to tell but Xander saw her talking to Connor so he grabbed the phone from her hand and introduced himself as her husband this time. Connor was rendered speechless and Xander further informed him about their two babies. Connor gave a good scolding to Emma for not informing him about this and he wasn't shocked. When Xander once picked up Emma's phone and informed Connor that he was Emma's boyfriend. Connor has had his suspicion since then and he also recognized his voice. Connor knew it was her teacher, Xander Colt. "I missed you," Emna mumbled softly on his chest, making Connor laugh. He
Hunter, Rasmus, luca= 16 Sarah= 14 Aurora= 12 Angela= 6 "Will she be alright?" Emma panicked. Her eyes were dead set on the doctor who sighed. "She will be fine, Luna. It's just a fever. Nothing serious. These medications would help." The doc said as he handed her some medicines. It was as if Emma could breathe again as she nodded her head. Ethan escorted the doctor out as Emma walked into Aurora's room. Aurora was lying on the bed. Her baby was suffering from a fever. Sitting beside her on the bed Emma caressed her forehead and kissed her cheek. "My strong baby," Emma mumbled as she continued to caress her princess. The door opened and Xander walked in. He looked tired. Their princess was suffering from a high fever for three days. They were always beside her all the time and now finally Aurora was getting better. Xander caressed Aurora's cheek before he pecked her forehead and sat there. After a while, the door slowly opened. Rasmus, Hunter, Luca, Sarah, and little Angela wa
Hunter, Rasmus, and Luca= 10 Sarah= 8 Aurora= 6 Emma stared at the pregnancy strip in her hand. Her eyes widened slightly when she saw two small horizontal lines on the strip. Positive. Her heart stuttered inside her chest. She was happy but she was nervous at the same time. They didn't plan this at all. She didn't know how it happened because she was on pills. After all, Mr. Xander Colt never used protection. She was still staring at the strip when the door to the restroom opened and Xander walked in. Finding her there, his hands immediately wrapped around her waist like a magnet as he pulled her back flushed to his chest. His face nuzzled in the crook of her neck as he breathed her scent. But then he paused. His eyes narrowed at the strip in her hand and then he abruptly swiveled her around in his arms so they were face to face. His large hands cupped her cheek as he made her look up. Their eyes met and he animatedly widened his eyes as if asking her the answer to an unasked
Hunter, Rasmus, and Luca= 7 Sarah= 5 Aurora= 3 "Sarah I swear if you touched my sword again with your baby hands. I'm gonna smash your doll!" Seven-year-old Hunter growled like a child at the five-year-old Sarah who stared at Hunter with her big brown eyes. "You won't do that," Sarah said in her baby voice, making a pout. She turned to stare at Luca who nonchalantly shrugged his shoulder. Hunter and Luca were always best buddies no matter what. Throwing the wooden sword toward Hunter. Sarah huffed and walked towards the bench as she sat on it, with her arms folded on her chest. A light smack landed on her head from behind making her gasp as she rubbed her head to glare at the person only to have a wide smile adorn her lips. "Rasmus." She squealed in joy, making Rasmus frown. "What? Why are you screaming, you poodle." Rasmus muttered and rounded the bench as he sat beside her while munching on his bubble gum. Sarah let out an exasperated gasp and pulled her poodle-like brown hai
"Xander!" Emma warned but he only growled in response. His face nuzzled in the crook of her neck. And his large calloused hand was on her right bosom as he squeezed it roughly through her dress making her gasp. Moving back he pressed a button and spoke up. "Head towards my farmhouse." He told the driver and removed his finger from the button as Emma gave him furrowed brows. "I don't want our kids to disturb us tonight." He muttered with a smile on his face making her giddy. "Silvia and Ethan would be pissed because they'll have to take care of four kids tonight," Emma warned, making him chuckle. "I'm the Alpha. They can't say anything to me." He muttered with a shrug. "Mean." She muttered lowly making him smirk. Grabbing her hand he kissed the back of it. And next thing he yanked her to him and slammed his lips on hers in a searing kiss. His tongue caressed hers, coaxing her to open her mouth and when she didn't he grabbed her rear and gave a rough squeeze to it making her gasp
