BELLA’S POV
Professor Blake’s question still hung in the air, and I started pondering the answer I’d give him.
“Professor Blake,” I finally said, my voice tinged with nervousness, “I also want us to have a deeper connection, but we’ve only just met, and I believe it’s important for us to get to know each other better before taking any significant steps in our relationship.”
He nodded in understanding, his eyes still locked onto mine. “I completely respect your perspective, Bella. It’s important for us to build a strong foundation.”
He then leaned in closer and continued, “And that’s precisely why I invited you to the party I’ll be hosting at my place in two days. It’s an opportunity for us to spend more time together, get to know each other better, and let our connection grow. So, have you given my invitation some thought?”
I smiled, feeling a mixture of excitement and anticipation. The idea of getting to know Professor Blake outside the classroom was enticing, and the upcoming party seemed like the perfect chance to explore the potential of our connection further.
“Yes, I have given it a thought,” I replied, my voice more confident now, “I’d be delighted to attend your party. I’m looking forward to getting to know you better, Professor.”
His smile widened, and he gently squeezed my hand. “I can’t wait for you to meet my friends and for us to share a special evening. It’s gonna be exciting, Bella, and I also can’t wait to know more about you.”
I simply smiled as we continued to gaze into each other’s eyes beneath the moonlit sky. Our faces were mere inches apart, and I could feel my heart racing with each passing moment.
The connection between us felt electric, a powerful force drawing us closer. The world around us seemed to fade away, leaving only the two of us, suspended in time and space.
Unable to resist the magnetic pull any longer, Professor Blake leaned in, his eyes fixed on mine. Our lips met in a gentle, tender kiss, igniting a burning desire within me.
As Professor Blake and I shared that tender kiss under the mesmerizing moonlight, it quickly evolved into a passionate and lingering embrace. Our lips moved together in a slow, sensuous dance, each kiss deepening the connection between us.
I could feel the warmth of his lips, soft and inviting, as they pressed against mine. His hands gently cradled my face, his fingers tracing the contours of my cheek with a delicate touch. The world around us seemed to disappear, leaving only the intoxicating sensation of his lips on mine.
Our tongues gently explored each other, igniting a fire of desire that had been smoldering since the moment we met. The taste of him was intoxicating, and I couldn’t get enough. Our bodies pressed closer, the heat between us building with each passing moment.
The sound of our synchronized breaths filled the air, mingling with the soft sighs of pleasure. The river’s gentle murmur and the moon’s gentle glow created an ambiance of pure magic.
We finally broke the kiss after what felt like an eternity, and I shyly lowered my head to avoid his gaze, my cheeks flushed with a mixture of excitement and a hint of shyness.
Professor Blake, ever the gentleman, broke the silence. “It’s getting pretty late. We should head back to your place so that you can get a good sleep.” He rose to his feet, extending his hand to me. I gladly accepted it, allowing him to help me to my feet, the warmth of his touch sending a pleasant shiver through my body.
As I stood up, I brushed the sand off my attire, a small laugh escaping my lips as I realized how disheveled we must look after our passionate kiss by the river. Despite the late hour, the moonlight still bathed us in its silvery glow, casting a romantic aura around us.
Just as he had done before, Professor Blake swept me off my feet, cradling me in his arms, and we vanished from the riverside with an exhilarating burst of speed, propelled by his remarkable werewolf abilities. The world outside became a blur as we moved at a breathtaking pace, the wind rushing past us.
In a matter of mere seconds, the exhilarating ride with Professor Blake had brought us back to my dorm, where he gently set me down. My heart continued to race as my feet found solid ground, and I gazed up at Professor Blake, my eyes filled with gratitude and affection.
With a charming smile that left me fluttered, he spoke, “I guess this is the part where I say goodnight.”
“Yeah,” I replied with a nervous smile, our proximity causing my heart to quicken. Suddenly, he closed the gap between us, encircling his arms around my waist, pulling me closer, our bodies pressing dangerously against each other.
My heart raced at the closeness, its beats so rapid it felt like it might burst out of my chest. He leaned in and placed a brief, soft kiss on my lips, leaving me yearning for more.
“You don’t know how happy I feel now that I’ve found you. I feel so happy and complete, and I hope you feel the same,” he said with a smile, his thumb caressing my cheek.
My cheeks grew warm with embarrassment, and I shyly looked away to avoid his gaze. He chuckled softly and gently turned my chin to make me meet his green eyes.
“You look really beautiful, Bella, and I’m so lucky to have you as my mate,” he said with a soft voice, rendering me flustered and speechless. I couldn’t utter a word; I could only gaze at his strikingly handsome face.
The man before me was the most handsome I had ever seen, with his green eyes, thick brown brows, straight nose, chiseled jawline, and tempting pink lips. I should be the lucky one to have him as my mate.
His voice broke through my thoughts, “It’s getting late, beautiful Bella. You should head inside and get some rest.”
Nervously, I smiled as he released his arms from my waist, and I adjusted my eyeglasses shyly.
“Goodnight, Bella,” he said.
“Yeah… goodnight,” I replied nervously, making my way into the dorm, still feeling flustered. As I entered the living area, I flinched in fright when I saw Sandra sitting on a couch, engrossed in her phone.
“Jeez, Sandra. You scared the daylights out of me,” I exclaimed.
“And where are you coming from in the middle of the night?” she asked as I settled beside her on the couch.
“I went somewhere with Professor Blake,” I confessed with a sheepish smile, noticing her furrowed brows.
“Professor Blake was here?” she asked, her tone filled with surprise.
“Yes,” I nodded, still smiling sheepishly.
“And you went out with him?” she probed.
“Yeah,” I replied, curious about her line of questioning.
“Did something happen between the two of you?”
“Something like what?” I inquired.
“Did you guys kiss or do anything explicit?” she pressed further.
“We only kissed,” I replied with a smile, reminiscing about the moment Professor Blake and I shared by the riverside.
Sandra’s frown deepened when I mentioned our kiss.
“What’s with the frown, Sandra? Is something wrong?” I asked, concerned.
“Nothing,” she replied briefly, standing up and walking to her room.
Her cryptic response left me puzzled, and I couldn’t help but wonder why Sandra seemed so concerned about my evening with Professor Blake, and why she frowned when I mentioned that I kissed professor Blake. As she retreated to her room, I sat on the couch, replaying the magical moments with Professor Blake in my mind.
The memory of his touch, the warmth of his embrace, and the sweetness of our kiss lingered vividly in my thoughts. I couldn’t deny the electric connection between us. It felt like the start of something extraordinary, and my heart raced with anticipation.
As I contemplated the events of the evening, I couldn’t help but acknowledge how fortunate I was to have encountered someone as captivating as Professor Blake as my mate. His presence had brought a new level of excitement and wonder into my life, and I couldn’t wait to see him tomorrow at the University.
With a contented sigh, I decided it was time to get some rest. The night had been filled with exhilaration and unexpected emotions, and I needed time to process it all. I made my way to my room and settled into bed, covering my body with the duvet.
Lying there in the dimly lit room, I found myself captivated by a tempest of thoughts that raced relentlessly through my mind. The memory of the kiss shared with Professor Blake lingered like an indelible imprint, its sweetness and intensity etched into my every thought. The mere recollection of our lips meeting sent shivers down my spine, and I couldn’t resist the temptation to let my imagination run wild.
In the depths of my mind, I began to create wild fantasies, each more tantalizing than the last. I pictured covert meetings in his office, where the atmosphere crackled with anticipation, and our illicit kisses evolved into a hidden expression of longing. With each passing moment, the fantasies grew more vivid and visceral, igniting an irresistible fire within me.
The intensity of these daydreams began to stir something within me, a rising heat that left me feeling increasingly aroused. My heart quickened, and my breath grew shallower as the fantasies took on a life of their own. But in that moment of heightened desire, I realized the need to regain control over my thoughts and emotions.
With a sudden jolt, I pulled myself back from the brink of my desires, snapping out of the intoxicating daydream. The room’s dim light seemed to be both a refuge and a reminder of the reality I needed to return to.
I took a deep, steadying breath, and as the rush of longing gradually subsided, I closed my eyes, hoping to catch some sleep. But as I drifted off to sleep, one thing was certain: my life had taken an unexpected and thrilling turn, and I couldn’t wait to discover what the future held in store.
