One Night With My Alpha Professor by Eve Above Story

Chapter 45 Audrey & Edwin Audrey's POV By the tclass was over, my skin was practically vibrating with nerves. I took my packing up my things, waiting until the last student had left the room before I approached the podium where Edwin was waiting.

"You wanted to speak with me?" I asked, stopping a respectful few feet away and clutching my books to my chest.

Edwin glanced up from his papers on the podium for a moment and shota glance down the bridge of his nose. "Do you see now why I warned you against dating that boy?" he asked, his pen scratching across the paper. My mouth fell open of its own accord. Was this really what Edwin wanted to talk about? Again? "What do you mean?" I finally managed after several beats of silence.

Sighing, Edwin shut the folder he had open on the podium and stuffed it into his briefcase. "You think you're safe from it," he said, "but even as a teaching assistant, you run the risk of creating by dating students in the class you're working in. I tried to warn you." As Edwin spoke, I felt my stomach sink a bit. He was right, even though I didn't want to admit it; thanks to the rumors about Gavin and me, people now thought that I was handing out good grades to those who they assumed I had feelings for. "Well... Thank you for speaking up for me," I said quietly, clutching tighter against my chest.

my books a little Edwin regardedfor a moment before answering. "I wasn't about to stand idly by while people were throwing out baseless accusations. Despite how it may cacross, Audrey, I'd hate to lose you as my teaching assistant." I didn't know how to respond to that. My cheeks flushed hotly, and I looked away as though that would somehow hide it.

"Thank you." 54%) Another long silence. I stood there for a few moments, shifting from foot to foot, before 1 couldn't bear it any longer.

"But I have to ask. Did you really warnbecause you knew this would happen? Or did you try to deterfrom dating Gavin because of your own personal reasons?" Edwin's POV Now, I was the one who was left speechless. I floundered for a moment, my mouth opening and closing mechanically-d**it. How did this girl always have the ability to makelike this? I had never had these kinds of issues before, and now... Before I could answer, she suddenly cutoff with a raised hand.

"It doesn't matter anyway. Gavin and I are just friends. I rejected him last night." My wolf raised his hackles. "Rejected him," he growled. "Perhaps..." I quickly shut my wolf up and cleared my throat. "You rejected him, eh?" I asked, folding my arms across my chest. "How does that pertain to me, exactly?" Audrey blinked atin surprise for a moment. My wolf began to roil again. "Don't play s**id, Edwin. You're hopeful, aren't you? That she might have rejected that boy because she wants-" "Shush!" I growled at my wolf inwardly. I would have no more of his antics. I didn't care why Audrey had rejected him. Hell, she could have dated him if she wanted to, for all I cared. I was only worried about the consequences like the ones she saw today. That was it... Right? Finally, Audrey pulled her slender shoulders back and flipped a loose lock of black hair away from her collarbone. "I just thought you would want to know," she said c**lly. "That's all." "Ah." I feigned indifference, trying to ignore the appearance of her pale shoulder, and closed the metal clasps on my briefcase with a snap. "Well... I'm sorry to hear that. You two seemed to like each other." "Liar, my wolf growled angrily. "You wanted her this whole time. You-" 2/4 16:13 Sat, Sep 14 BBB.

Chapter 45 "Not really." Audrey-shrugged. "He's a good friend, but there just isn't much of a romantic spark." "With him?" my wolf asked. "Or with anyone? Quelling my wolf's incessant voice, I shrugged my jacket on and grabbed my briefcase. "Well, either way... I hope you learned your lesson. Next time, be sure to date sor one who isn't one of the students in this class." I paused, turning toward the door, and ast her one last glance over my shoulder. "Student-teacher relationships can end with a loss. of one's job if you're not careful." With that, I began heading toward the door. Audrey followed me, her high heels. clicking on the tiles as we stepped into the hallway. I didn't make it far before she was stepping in front ofand blocking my way "Or maybe next time, I'll just have to be more careful so as not to get caught." curve of Her words left my head spinning and my wolf bristling with excitement. The her lips as she spoke, the flicker in her eyes, the way her gaze roamed up one side ofand down the other.

Was she implying...? "Audrey, I-" But she was already gone before I could say a word.

"A romantic spark," my wolf repeated for the millionth tthat day. "You two certainly have one." I nearly scoffed out loud. Sure, maybe my wolf was right-there was something there. But there was also plenty that was blocking our way.

For starters, there was the fact that she was a student and I was a professor. I hadn't forgotten what Professor Lovelace had toldabout the other professor who had lost his job due to being accused of sleeping with a female student, and I didn't even know if 0 Rapid VPN ♫ 16 13 Sat, Sep Chapter 45 they had actually slept together or if it was a rumor. As much as I liked Audrey, I wasn't about to risk my job-or her education-for another night together.

We had different mannerisms, different ways of speaking, different interests. How could I justify that? Everyone would always look atlike a creep for being into someone as young as her.

My wolf, sensing my thoughts, bristled nervously. "But there's something else. It's not because she's a human, is it?" he asked.

I chuckled under my breath and shook my head. "No. You know I don't really care about that. It doesn't make a difference to
