“Will you marry me?” Lucian asked with an intense look that made her heart skip a beat for a moment. “Wh- *cough*” Thea coughed as she tried to clear her air pipes. She probably shouldn’t have gasped while drinking water but her shock got the better of her. Did Lucian just propose to her?! “Here…” He said handing her a napkin. Avoiding his intoxicating gaze, she wiped her mouth and tried to compose herself. Her heart was still racing as she looked back up at his beautiful, blue gaze again. Why did the damned man have to be so handsome? And very much her type… “What did you just say?” She asked, inwardly congratulating herself for sounding normal this time. “I asked you if you would be willing to marry me?” He said again, his husky voice sending waves of pleasure down her spine. “Uh, I don’t understand. Why would you ask me this? Leave dating alone, we’ve only known each other for about a week or so…” She said, wondering what had gotten into the man all of a sudden. “I wonder

Thea’s eyes couldn’t leave the sight before her as she watched her boyfriend grunt one last time in pleasure while his student, looking at her from behind his shoulder, smirked at her, throwing her head back in exaggerated pleasure as she called out his name.Thea felt like she had been slapped in the face at the very moment and she was pulled back into reality. She was so taken aback with shock that she remained rooted there watching their disgusting scene.All of a sudden, Thea felt bile rise in her stomach and she wanted to throw up. She fought hard against it refusing to give the girl the satisfaction of seeing a reaction from her.In another exaggerated fit of bad acting. The girl decided to give Robert the grace of informing him that Thea was standing behind him.“Oh My God!” She exclaimed and Robert, startled, looked back, his eyes widening like saucers when he saw her.Thea had to admit it. The girl did have a lot of guts to be acting like this toward a professor…“Thea…” Robe

“Hey, you don’t have to participate if this isn’t what you want,” Pen said as she walked by Thea’s side. This time she was looking like a presentable person in her formal attire and her red curls gathered stylishly on top of her head.Whoever saw her in her disheveled state in the lab wouldn’t believe that she was the same person as before.“It’s okay. I don’t want the old geezer to have to say anything about this again. He’s already going to give me a hard time with Robert as it is,” she said as she sipped from her tea.“You’re making it sound like it’s your fault… I mean Robert was the one cheating on you,” Pen answered, then she added, "You've been drinking that tea a lot more these days."Thea paused for a moment, looking down at the teacup and then at her friend before feeling a rush of heat spread up to her cheeks.'Nope... She wasn't doing it because of him. She just liked the taste...'“Yeah... I guess." She said, then continued as if nothing happened, "You know how the old ma

Thea wondered where the commotion came from as she stepped into the lecture hall. She was pretty sure that it wasn’t because of her. It wasn’t that unusual for her to cover for Professor Wilson so the students mustn’t be too surprised by her presence there. Continuing to walk down the stairs, she put down her bag on the table and looked up at her class. Everyone was busy looking from her to someone in the back row. And as her eyes traveled up following their gazes, she realized what drove their attention this much. Sitting at one of the far back rows was no one other than him… The stranger from the park. The man who almost ran her over. Sitting there, Thea couldn’t help but note why the students were making such a fuss about him. He was sitting there looking down at his phone in his clearly expensive three piece suit. He looked too much out of place and to be honest way out of league of his entourage which made Thea wonder why she hadn’t seen that when she first met him. So… This

The car spun for a moment as soon as Lucian pushed the brakes and Thea’s head slammed against the window rendering her dizzy and disoriented for a moment. She saw Lucian reach out for her steadying her body even though she was wearing a seatbelt and wondered why he wasn’t more concerned about himself.Everything was blurry and fast for a moment and the only thing Thea could hear was Lucian cursing and the sound of the tires squealing against the ground.“Damn it! Thea!” Lucian called as soon as the car stopped, “Thea! Are you okay?! ”“I-I’m fine…” She mumbled as she looked at him to see him taking a deep relieved breath as he removed his seatbelt and reached for her head.“It doesn’t look like you’re bleeding,” He said his eyes looking serious as he examined her.“I’m fine. It was just a bump,” She said pushing his and away, “More importantly, are you okay?” She asked and he gave her a slightly surprised look before smiling.“I’m fine. Except for the fact that I almost had a heart at
