All Chapters of The Professor, My Mate: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Marco POV “Did you hear? Beta Dan was able to ward off most of the rogues on his own,” I heard a guard say. “That’s true, I saw it with my own two eyes. He looked unstoppable at that moment,” another said. “That’s impressive,” a third answered. “Definitely. When others ran and hid in the chaos, he stepped up and proved why he deserved to be a beta—courage, power and impact all rolled into one,” a fourth said. “To me, he deserves to be our leader,” someone else added, and my eyes widened as fury coursed through my veins like fuel. “We already have a leader, Alpha Marco,” another voice protested. “Yes, but with the way things are now, Beta Dan deserves to be Alpha. If not for him we wouldn’t be standing right now. He deserves it,” the man insisted, and that was the last I was willing to take. I stomped on the marble floor so hard with my shoe that the sound echoed down the hallway. Immediately, the talking stopped. I stepped out from the corner and waited behind listening to t

Ariana's POV I woke up to the smell of fresh food beside me, and when I blinked, I saw the nurse woman setting the tray down on the table to my side. “Good morning, Miss Ariana,” she said, catching me staring at her. I blinked a few times before deciding to sit up, and after a small stretch, I turned to face the meal. “Breakfast in bed?” I asked with a small smile on my face. “Yes, Miss Ariana, it saves you extra pain from putting pressure on your foot,” she said, and my smile widened slightly, which she reciprocated. For some reason, everyone around me had been giving me special treatment ever since Marco’s sentence. Even though I was injured and healing fast, I didn’t think it would affect how they acted, but then again, considering the sentence I’d been given, I guessed it was well deserved. I turned to the food, well flavored and light—an array of soft baked toasts with a buttery crisp glow, and in another bowl, a mix of vegetables and fruits of different colors, with a cu

Ariana’s POV “You’ve found something?” Beta Dan repeated, his voice lower as he stayed watchful. His eyes briefly met mine, with a flicker that said he’d hoped I could’ve disappeared—but that wasn’t going to happen. Though judging from what the guards might say, that should be my first wish. “What was it?” Beta Dan asked. “During our investigation, we found a few tracks of footsteps in the woods close to the library. They didn’t follow the pack’s guards or warriors’ routine,” the guard said. “Do you think it might be a rogue?” Dan questioned. “We aren't sure, but the pattern indicates they didn’t come in a group—more like one or two,” one guard said. “So that means these ones didn’t come to attack, but to spy instead?” Beta Dan asked, his voice calm. “Most likely so,” the guard replied. “What’s the distance?” Beta Dan asked, and my breath hitched. This was the man determined to know if it was the one secretly being investigated. “It’s more than a couple of miles from here,”

Ariana’s POV I gulped, the figure silently waiting behind me. The deed in my hand felt heavy as my heart raced as if I just ran a mile nonstop. I didn’t really think before deciding to pick up two or three books having similar book covers to the deeds. “Ariana.” Beta Dan’s voice. My heart skipped. So he was the one behind me. I turned slowly, my gaze lifting from the floor to meet him. “Why did you vanish like that? I specifically told the worker to escort you to and fro so you wouldn’t get lost, but you went ahead and did so.” Dan said. “I was curious, somewhat, so I decided to take a detour,” I replied, trying to sound convincing. “That was a rash choice,” he said, his voice calm but sharp. “You don’t know your way around here, so you could have gotten lost. It would’ve taken a long time to find you—that’s why I was worried and told everyone to look for you.” He stepped closer, and I backed up instinctively, stopping when my injured foot pressed against the ground harder t

Ariana's POV His lips left mine, our gazes locked together like it was the best reunion of all time. I didn't even care about the fact that I’d still hated all of this in due time, the bond was just too cruel and trapping for me to give room for common sense. I saw Marco near again, and my lips parted to take his again when a couple of sharp knocks landed on the door. “Alpha Marco, I've come with reports,” Beta Dan said, and my eyes widened as I was shocked. I quickly pulled away, creating a reasonable distance between us. Marco rubbed his eyes with his fingers as he walked back towards his chair. “Enter.” Beta Dan walked in smoothly, stopping a couple of steps forward before he reached where I stood, immediately catching my healing expression. “Is something wrong, Ariana?” he asked. I gulped, immediately shifting my gaze to Marco, but like before, his expression was calm as ice, as if nothing had happened. I always wondered how he was able to mask it all so fast. “No,” I
