A Baby For My Professor Twenty Three
JAXON I'd been slipping for three days. It was the first time I'd slipped for that long.And when I'd regained consciousness, the fever had struck me hard. Dante and his twin must've been scared shirtless. They'd asked Erin to take care of me. She was the one my father had wanted me to marry when I'd been in his pack. I'd tried to dissolve our engagement, but Erin wasn't going to have it. She claimed that she would kill herself if I ever went after another woman. Therefore, when she'd learnt that I'd met my fated mate, she'd grown irritable, desperate to rip us apart.I should've seen this coming.When she'd suddenly visited my office earlier that morning, claiming that she was worried that I was still not strong enough to return to the academy, she'd been acting strange.It turns out that she'd been waiting for this moment.I stared at Clarissa, a lump forming in my throat. I could see the unmistakable pain and anger in her eyes. She probably believed I'd played her for a foo

CLARISSA "Get back!" Professor Hale yelled at me, a frantic expression on his face. Confused, I turned behind me to see what was making him so worried. My eyes widened when I saw the approaching masked man. His ruby ring caught the morning sunlight and glimmered. Instantly, I recalled where I'd seen that ring. And when I did, my rage consumed me. Seven Years Ago, I was excited. Today was my father's birthday, and I'd baked him a birthday cake for the first time in my life. With the help of Gwen, my assistant, the strawberry cake had been baked perfectly. Now, it was time to present it to him. With a grin on my face, I knocked on the door of his study with my free hand. When I got no response, I pushed the door open and walked in. But the moment I looked up, I was greeted by the sight of my father slumped in his chair with a knife buried in his chest. Horrified, I dropped the cake."No, don't—" my father choked out, and from the corner of my eyes, I sa

CLARISSA I slipped in and out of consciousness so many times. There were times when I felt them dab my head with a towel. I could smell antiseptics and my blood. I could feel them prodding at me. The pain finally dulled, and I fell asleep. When I awoke again, the world was hazy, swimming in soft greys.There was a dull pressure on my hand. Someone was holding me. A lopsided grin curled my lips as I lifted my hand to touch his dark hair. He was sitting by my side, resting his head on the bed. He seemed to be asleep, judging from the way he didn't even stir when I stroked his hair. A strange peace settled over me, so fragile it felt like glass. I was too tired to speak, too fogged to think.So I closed my eyes and fell asleep once more. I stirred a few more times, pulled towards consciousness by soft voices or the gentle squeeze of his hand. He never left. Not once. Even if I couldn't speak, even if my mind was clouded, I felt him."Clarissa? Can you hear me?" A feminine voice

JAXON Ashlyn Torres. She was one of the students I'd once locked in my basement for daring to touch my mate. Clearly, she hadn't learnt her lesson. Students like her were insufferable nuisances who needed more than just one warning to put them in their place. I was sick of having to deal with this. I was too old—and too tired—for this.Even so, it was obvious that she was cooking mischief in her head. Desperate people made the easiest pawns."What do you want?" Clarissa snapped, her voice tight with anger. Her emotions had been volatile lately, and I couldn't risk her powers flaring again. Therefore, I needed to grasp the reins of the situation.So I took her hand and steered her behind me. Ashley's eyes sparkled with amusement."Sure, you must want to protect her since you're her baby daddy. But what would everyone else think when they find out?"Good. She didn't know that Clarissa was my mate. If that was the case, there was no need to get my hands dirty."What are you going to

CLARISSA I didn't know a lot about my mother. She died three days after I was born. My father rarely ever spoke of her, and whenever he did, his eyes would be clouded by grief. Staring at the framed photo in my hand, I wiped away the tears on my cheeks, trying not to get too emotional. Since my mother used to be a director at the academy, perhaps she'd been a powerful woman. I wanted to know more about her.I turned to look at my mate, swallowing past the lump in my throat."Did you—" I started to say. But then he pressed his hand over my mouth, gesturing at me to stay silent. As if on cue, the lights came on, and a loud feminine voice called out."Who's there?"I recognized it immediately. It was Professor Storm's.What was she doing here? I couldn't help but wonder.Slowly, Jaxon moved closer to me, shifting me into his arms. My breath caught in my throat when he suddenly lifted me off the ground in one fluid motion like I weighed less than a piece of paper.Footsteps inche

CLARISSA Stefan was awfully pale. There were dark bags under his eyes, and he was visibly trembling. I stared at him in confusion, surprised to see how badly his condition had deteriorated."How did you know I was here?" I asked him, and he gave me a weak smile."It's the only place I could think of when I learnt you weren't in your dorm," he told me.I squinted at him, unsure of how to feel about what he'd just said to me."What's going on with you? You didn't look this bad last time we spoke," I pointed out.Letting out a sharp breath, he sat down on a slightly raised pavement by the gate.“I was born unlucky. I happened to be born on the night the void was open. It sucked a part of my essence, and there’s no way to get it back.”I frowned. “Quick question. What is the void?”“I don’t know much about it. It’s somewhere between life and death. It wasn’t meant to be exposed to humans or supernatural beings. But it was once forcefully opened by someone. Since then, it opens eve

JAXON Clarissa Nightbourne. That beautiful young woman was quickly occupying my heart and smashing through my walls like she’d trained all her life for it. I wanted her so badly, it physically hurt. But what could I do? Until she was fully able to use and control her power, she couldn’t fix me. Even so, the idea of using her for that purpose just didn’t sit right with me. I wanted to pamper her and serenade her with my affection. I didn’t want her to be burdened by the thought that she needed to fix me. If I could exist side by side with her, it was already a blessing. I wanted to be selfish and claim her despite everything standing in our way. Nonetheless, each time I saw those brilliant purple eyes of hers, I was always overcome with the urge to keep her safe. And if safe meant keeping her away from me, I would do it. I was heading to my office when I saw her with the triplet elites. They were deeply engrossed in a conversation. I’d driven Clarissa to school earlier that mo

CLARISSA I saw it in the way he looked at me. He was terrified. Worried, I breezed into his office, shutting the door behind me. I rushed to his side, my heart sinking when I saw how pale he’d become. Even worse, I didn’t know what to do to make him feel better. He trembled in my arms, his eyes rolling into the back of his head. One minute he was in my arms. The next, he was gone, vanished into thin air. Terror seized me, my pulse pounding in my ears.“Professor Hale?” I croaked, spinning around.He was gone. The truth hit me like a punch to my stomach.“No,” I whimpered, sinking to my knees.Where did he go?Was it the curse?“Jaxon?” I called out, tears blurring my vision. Was this the end?What about our child?“Jaxon!” I yelled, and all of a sudden, the air in the office shifted. And there he was, slumped in his chair. He was shivering so hard, I bolted to his side, pulling him into my arms.“It’s okay. You’re okay.” My voice cracked as I stroked his hair.I could feel eve

JAXON They attacked from all sides, wielding silver blades. But I was more worried about Clarissa, whom I could no longer see, as a result of the thick fog. I hoped Zoey had played her part in securing my mate. I hissed in pain as the edge of a blade sliced through my forearm, the silver causing the wound to sizzle. Still, I was distracted, constantly searching for a way to find Clarissa while I defended myself against the attackers.'I've got Clarissa,' Zoey mind-linked me, and relief sank into me.The masked attackers surged toward me, but this time I was ready. I moved like a storm, my claws tearing through flesh and knocking blades from trembling hands. There was no hesitance.I cut them down as quickly as they lurched themselves at me.From the corner of my eye, I noticed a flash of movement heading for me.I barely managed to move out of the way just in time to dodge Callum's attack. I scoffed, not surprised that he was the one they'd sent to get rid of me."The rest of

CLARISSA I had finally found a comfortable position after what felt like an eternity of tossing and turning, trying to accommodate the stubborn curve of my baby bump. Curled on my side, one leg drawn up and an arm tucked beneath my head, I let out a slow breath, the cool sheets offering a small moment of relief.I was dressed in a pair of joggers and a bralette. The simplest things felt like a chore tonight.Across the room, I could hear the sound of the shower running. My thoughts were a mess. If Callum hadn't reminded me of the consequence of getting involved in the silver gauntlet, I might've truly stayed ignorant until that day. My gaze wandered to the glass door of the bathroom. Steam had heavily fogged up the glass, but I could still see Jaxon's silhouette.My gaze trailed up his strong legs and thighs, my cheeks heating up when I noticed his firm ass.The ridiculous urge to smack him hit hard. But knowing Jaxon, I'd probably end up over his knee.The tattoo on his back

CLARISSA My heart thudded madly in my chest, my attention focused on my mate. The silver gauntlet had just begun. Callum stood by Jaxon's side as his partner. They stood on a raised silver platform on the field. There were twenty-eight teams on the arena. According to Jaxon, the gauntlet was based on elimination. Only five teams would advance to the finals. And from there, the winning team members combat with each other for the silver gauntlet crown.I knew the rules. Once the Gauntlet began, there were no substitutions. No interruptions.But rules were made for people with nothing to lose.And I had everything to lose.The sound of an ear-splitting whistle cut through the air, and each team leaped from their platforms and took off into a sprint towards the obstacle course.I balled my trembling hands as I watched the obstacle course shift and transform.Jaxon leaped across platforms that vanished behind him, dodging enchanted blades that sliced through the air and manouevre

JAXON We hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. Looking at her now, she looked much frailer and smaller than the fierce woman I used to know. Our resemblance was striking. We were mother and son after all. Beside her stood Dante, who had his head lowered. "I tried to stop her, but she insisted that I give her your address," he mumbled. This was how bad my relationship with my mother had become. She didn't even know her son's home. My feelings towards her were complicated. A part of me hated her for never speaking up for me or believing in me even before my sister's death happened. The other part of me felt sorry for her. She'd lost a child after all. Maybe my father had influenced her, convinced her to isolate herself from me. But seeing her now, I wasn't sure if my thoughts were wrong or right. "Jaxon," she said, her voice cracking. I blinked at her, a storm welling inside of me. Why was she here? Why show herself now? "Mother," I droned, and her grey eyes welle

JAXON I was a coward. I should've told her everything. I'd told myself I'd kept it from her to protect her, but that was a lie. I knew that the void played a big part in my growing negative emotions. However, I was also aware that some of it was all my fault. When Callum had forced me to raise questions about his involvement with the void, I should have confronted him head-on. But I had a feeling that many other people were involved. And I feared the truth. The knock on the door of my bedroom had me sitting up in bed. I could feel Dorian's presence behind it. "Come in," I said, and the door jerked open. Dorian stepped in, his gaze softening when it landed on me. "How are you feeling?" He asked, shutting the door behind him. I shrugged. "I've experienced worse." A sad smile ghosted over his lips as he moved over to sit on the edge of my bed. "I found what you asked me for," His voice was tight and brimming with tension. My chest tightened with unease. "The CCTV camera

CLARISSA Kieran visibly sized him up as he strode towards us, but Stefan didn't flinch or bat an eyelash. It was true that I'd somehow turned him into an errand boy, but I hadn't expected him to 'come to my rescue' like this. Stefan grabbed Kieran's wrist and pried his fingers off my arm. Then he pushed him away from me, moving to stand in front of me. Kieran's expression twisted into one of disdain."You whore. Is this another one of your boy toys?" Kieran spat, and Stefan folded his arms across his chest."Why? Do you want to sign up?" His voice was tinged with so much sass, I couldn't help but let out a laugh.Kieran's green eyes darkened with rage, and he lurched forward in a bid to strike Stefan. Unfortunately, Stefan kicked his legs from under him, sending him crashing to the ground."Stay away from her. I won't give the same warning twice," Stefan said and took hold of my hand. Then he walked me far away from Kieran."Thank you," I mumbled, and he snorted."You alrea

CLARISSA Something changed after Callum's visit. Though he didn't say anything concerning, the look on my mate's face had indicated that something was wrong. Still, no matter how much we asked him what was going on, he refused to speak. Instead, he decided to go home, saying he needed some rest.Jaxon's condition took a downward spiral from that moment.The days that followed bled into weeks and months. And worse, my mate began to spiral.He barely ate or slept. Instead, he seemed to be digging into some mysterious information.According to the book I'd taken from the archive, conjuring the twin moons was risky, and there was a high chance of me losing my life. Still, for Jaxon's sake, I wanted to try it. There was a good chance that I could be successful. But my mate wasn't having it.He stopped me from coming over to his house, and he also took the book from me. Little did he know that I'd taken screenshots just in case. And I was secretly practising and preparing for the r

JAXON My body didn't feel like mine. Even my thoughts were broken and disoriented, like they belonged on a shattered puzzle piece."...Jaxon?"I looked up, startled by the sound of a familiar raspy voice which had turned that way because of how much he used to smoke. Dorian.I blinked at him, wondering when he'd stepped into my office. Wait, what if he'd been here for a while already? What if my blackouts were getting worse?"Were you listening to me?" He asked, and I shook my head slowly.His gaze softened, and he drew closer to me. "You look...cold," he said, moving over to me. I zoned out as he picked up my coat from the hanger and placed it around my shoulders.I didn't realize how much I'd been freezing until I felt the warmth of the fabric."How long have you been here?" He asked, and he gave me a smile. "Barely two minutes. I just got here."Relief sank into me."What were you saying?" I asked him, and he sank into the seat in front of my desk."I was talking about the si

CLARISSA I was speechless, my emotions were clogging my throat so much that I could hardly breathe. Jaxon was mocking me. Why? Was it because I'd finally seen him for what he was? Clearly, he was no hero. I'd always known of his morally grey tendencies, but this...he was pushing it too far."Since you've got it all figured out, what are you waiting for?" He said, his eyes sparkling with mischief and barely restrained psychosis. "Kill me."I shook my head in disbelief, tears welling up in my eyes. This wasn't supposed to happen. He was supposed to assure me that his intentions were pure.He moved closer to me, a mocking smile tugging at his lips. "Do it."I brought a hand to his chest to push him away. "Stop it, Jaxon. Stop!" I screamed at him, my voice trembling. "Please..."He didn't flinch. He watched me, his head tilted, as if I were a puzzle he no longer cared to solve."This is not you," I croaked, and he arched a brow."And how do you know that? We're both strangers, don'
