Rain’s POV.
“Hmmm…” I whimper as toss around the bed. A blissful sigh leaves my lips.
I feel so good in the right places, like my nipples and my cunt.
What the hell happened? I've never felt like this before.
Scratching my closed eyes, I slowly open them to take in my surroundings.
“What the hell!?” I yelp, propping up on the bed. How did I end up here? I ask myself, darting my eyes around the room.
My blinds are closed but because it’s transparent the sun beam shines in my small bedroom.
What the heck? How come I ended up in my bedroom?
I wrack my mind rapidly and I remember what occurred at school with Killan and Nadia.
I went to the bar and I had lots of shots. I remember being with the stranger in the alley.
Aside from these, I don’t remember much again.
So? Who brought me home?
“Grrr!” I groan when I feel the banging headache. Fuck, I’m having a hangover.
As I’m about to recline back on the bed, my personal servant calls out. Nadia and I have different people serving us.
Being the preferred daughter, she has hordes of me serving her but I only have one.
I still don’t understand why my father hates me so much he prefers Nadia.
“Rain! You’re already late for school!”
Oh, crap! I have three-morning classes. How the hell am I going to cope with this shitty hangover?
I leave the bed with hiss, heading to the bathroom but Mrs. Sinai pops her head into my room.
“You sure wanna go to school today?” She asks, looking at me through her big eyeglasses.
“Yes, Mrs. Sinai. I just overslept!” I smile to cover up my lies. I don’t want anyone finding out I went to the bar much less having a stranger between my legs. My father will kill me if he finds out. I venture swiftly into the bathroom.
Once I shut the door, I sigh. Mrs. Sinai didn’t act like she knew what happened last night because she and her husband are the only ones that stay here with me on the south wing of this huge manor house.
Does that mean she doesn’t know?
Fuck, I have to find out! I conclude with my brows furrowed. I quickly brush up and take my bath.
Twenty minutes later, I’m down in the dining room. Mrs. Sinai’s husband, Durand is already devouring his food while sitting on the head seat.
“Hey,!” I greet, lowering my school bag to the seat across from his.
“How are you, Rain?” He asks, watching me as I join his wife in the kitchen whipping myself a cup of coffee.
I need this coffee to help stop this bad hangover.
“I’m pretty good, Mr. Durand..” I say, perching on the sink as I look at them.
“You ain’t gonna eat the sandwiches?” Asks Mrs. Sinai and I shake my head.
“I need something light,” I tell her, joining her husband back in the dining.
“How was the school dance? Did you enjoy it? Killan came over last night with Nadia looking for you.”
What? How dare they come to my quarters after what they did to me?
“Uh…it was…good.” I let out slowly. Then. “Why did they come?” I cock my brow at her.
“They didn’t say anything to me. I guess your father wanted to see you.
I swallow the bile rising in my throat at the thought of what they told my father for him to request my presence. Dread crawls through me as I squeeze my cup of coffee hard.
“That reminds me, where were you last night? We didn’t even know when you came in.”
Oh, my God. I wobble inwardly at
So, they don’t even know when and how I came in?
If they were here when Killan and Nadia came looking for me that means they were already back from vineyards.
So, how in hell did I end up in my room? Strange gooseflesh fills my body. However, I give them both a cheeky smile.
“I was with Kylie last night. I only came back later in the night.”
They both nod and silence clouds us until a knock sounds on the front door.
“I’ll get that. I’m sure it must be Kylie.”
I rush to my feet quickly and hurry over to the front door. However, I guessed wrong because standing in front of the door was none other than Nadia.
She walks in with a smug look on her face. Behind her are her guards in dark suits.
She ignores my servant's greetings and daggers me with glares.
“Where were you last night?” She cock a harsh brow at me, commanding me to speak.
“Do I owe you an answer to that?” I crease my brows too, wanting to show her I’m not afraid.
She’s nothing but a slut, stealing people’s boyfriends. I just have this strong urge to rip her throat out.
“Don’t forget, you’re below me, Rain. And I’ll always put you in your place.”
“That’s the least you can do, isn’t it?” I bark, breathing heavily.
She snorts, squaring her shoulders over her crossed hands.
“I can do more, Rain. Just watch me ruin your life completely! Killan was so much fun you know. And guess what? Our father has reached an agreement with his parents to betroth us to each other.”
My heart singes with pain at what she just revealed. Now I know what my father was looking for me.
He only wanted to inform me about Nadia’s betrothal to Killan.
Tears burn at the back of my eyes but I rein it in. I can’t cry over this. No.
“Very well then. Congratulations. Now, get out of my way.” I bark in anger.
Trying to shoulder past her, Nadia grabs my arm, pulling me back.
“Don’t walk out on me you bitch!”
“Let go of me!” I cry out, trying to push her away which is impossible given she’s stronger than me.
The guards do nothing only throwing their faces away but luckily for me, Kylie comes out, pushing Nadia away from me.
“Stop it!” She barks at Nadia, daring her to move forward.
Of course, Nadia knows her strength doesn’t match Kylie’s. My best friend is well-trained in combat.
Nadia snorts under her breath and walks away.
Turning to me, Kylie shoots forward. “Are you okay?” She asks, holding me. Her face creases with worry but I nod even though I don’t feel okay.
Kylie and I squeeze into her SUV and drive off while she begins ranting about the escapade last night when she notices I don’t want to talk about what went on between Nadia and me.
I bet Kylie’s used to seeing us fight always she doesn’t bother asking questions again. She knows just how much Nadia hates my guts.
Regardless of what she’s saying, my mind drift away.
All I think about is my boisterous sex with a stranger in an alleyway and how I ended up in my room without remembering how I did so.
My heart thuds and I feel my core still tingling.
His touch and kisses felt so right. Right now, I feel like seeing the man all over again.
“Earth to, Rain!” Kylie’s loud voice snaps me away from my reverie and I swallow, turning to look at her.
“I’m sorry. What were you saying?” I ask Kylie, trying to keep my face void of the bliss I feel.
“I was telling you a story about the party. Wait, what were you thinking?”
“Nothing!” I rasp, facing front again.
“Are you keeping secrets now? Tell me how was your first sex with Killan? Tell me you loved it.” Kylie chirps, excitement rippling through her.
I take a moment to breathe before responding. “Killan and I didn’t do it, Kylie.”
My friend’s brows crease as she looks at me. “What do you mean? You said yourself you’re gonna do it…”
“Killan is a cheat, Kylie! I saw him with my sister making out. Turns out they’ve fucking behind my back.” I snap, interrupting her.
Kylie hits the brake quickly, making my heart jump out of my chest.
“What the heck, girl?” I snap, swallowing. When I manage to throw a glimpse outside, I see someone who looks a bit similar to a stranger walking into a café.
“Omigod!” I rasp under my breath and unfasten my belt. With a start, I open the door and cross the road without thinking twice.
“Rain! Where are you going?” Kylie calls out, coming after me. However, as I venture into the café I end up not seeing the man except for the woman sitting by the corner, alone.
Was I seeing double? I wonder in deep thought until I feel my friend tugging my hand.
“What is going on, Rain?” She rasps, running short of breath.
“Nothing. I was just…” I trail off.
How do I tell my friend that I’m looking for the man I had my first sex with? I’d recognize him anywhere.
Kylie and I get back into the car and I tell her the story about how I caught Killan and Nadia at the schoolyard.
Kylie expresses her shock while we park the car in the school garage.
The both of us had the same class this morning, hence we walk to the classroom together.
Upon walking into the class, I see Nadia and her minion sitting in the front seat with a dirty smirk on her face when she looks at me.
My heart sings with anger. The urge to wipe off that smirk from her face fills me, but Kylie guides me to the back seat and we settle there.
“Rain…” Kylie starts to speak amid the chatter going on in the class.
However, a deep baritone voice cuts through the noise in the class, startling everyone.
“Good morning, class!”
We all turn to the direction of the voice and my heart sinks into the pit of my stomach before the butterflies there begin to flutter their wings.
Standing before the whole class with gleaming silver eyes, brunette hair, and brawn shoulders is the man from last night.
The very one between my legs, devouring me.
Stunned into silence, I pin my eyes on his. As if by some magical force, his eyes find mine and lock.
A knowing glint crosses in his eyes as he says in a sexy baritone voice to the class.
“I’m Professor Logan Pierce. Your new history teacher!”
“Omigod!” the words echo in my ears but it takes me a while to realize I’m one that saying it.
The stranger from last night is my…professor?
Hell, I’m doomed!
TBC.
Rain’s POV.“So, since you all already know my name, I’d like you to familiarize myself with yours too.” Professor Logan says, his sharp eyes taking in everyone in the classroom.I feel my whole body shaking at the revelation that the man I had tasted last night was my professor.Other students are already on their feet, introducing themselves as he had demanded. But I was so lost in thought that I did not realize it was already my turn for the introduction until Kylie bumped her shoulder into me.I gasp, staring at my friend to scold her but Kylie whispers, “The professor…”“The red-haired! May I know your name?” The professor’s voice intercepts Kylie.I feel a ripple of shivers down my spine and I manage to get up on my feet, swallowing the lump in my throat.“Uh…professor.” I stutter, my body jittering Why the hell am I shaking? Peering at him, I notice the intense way he's looking at me like he’s studying me.My whole body prickles with a strange kind of awareness under the weigh
Rain’s POV.Looking into Professor Logan’s eyes, my breath stalls in my lungs at the way he's peering at me like he's looking into my soul.I don’t know why I feel like he followed me here deliberately. Is that even possible?Gosh, my mind is a mess right now as I’m standing right in front of him, lost for words.I wasn’t aware the rector was calling me only for me to tour professor Logan around the school.How convenient? Being with the man I’m forcing myself to stay away from?Then the man chuckles, the baritone so deep it coats my skin with tingles. I get lost in his mesmerizing eyes.He shoulder passes me, putting some distance between us.“Lead the way, Rain Hanks.” Is what he says, cocking a brow at me. He knows what that look he's giving me does to me that’s why he keeps glowering at me that way.Embarrassment mottled my cheeks red when he says. “I simply don’t prioritize stalking my students, Rain Hanks. So, I advise you to get past that thought.”He adds a gear in his stride,
Logan’s POV.I shouldn’t be here with her!I shouldn’t be feeling the satiny flesh of her skin with my palms.Despite how much I tell myself that, my wolf insists on being by her side.To touch her. To kiss her.Fuck! It’s all messing with my head, burning my soul.Blade roars inside me, ordering me to spend more time with her. Then I ask her to hold my hand so we can wander into the woods.She said it’s a forbidden part of the school. Students aren’t allowed there but I know better.That’s the place it all started.My wolf purrs in my head when Rain knit our palms together and we begin to venture deeper into the woods. My nerves are frayed with an unbridled need to be inside her.The wagging of my wolf’s tail, the purring of my balls and the ripe tension I feel coming from Rain muddles my mind.When she mistakenly stumbles and falls into me, I give in.I pull her into my thighs, assessing her foot to see if she obtained any injury. Though I see none I keep caressing her foot.My fang
Rain’s POV.Whimpers of bliss vibrate from my chest, mixing with the pains I feel.But with each passing moment, he kisses me, crowding me with the heat of his body, I notice the pain isn’t there any longer.How’s that possible? Is all ponder on. Professor Logan tights his mouth on mine, holding the sides of my face.I give in, my legs parting to welcome him in between my legs fully. Tension uncoil in my belly as I savor the kiss.Wow! Hmmm. This is so good! I rasp.When he pulls back, his harsh breath washes over my face. Then… “Does it still hurt?”I wrack my mind to check if I still feel pain but I don’t.Strange, I ponder, ogling at his face through the dark.“Rain…” He chirps and his husky voice sends chills down my spine. “We shouldn’t have come here.” Echoes his voice.Professor Logan zips up from me, facing away as if he’s battling demons. But I know he's only battling his attraction for me.I refuse to battle mine for him anymore, certainly, not after that sizzling, mind-mush
Rain’s POV.“Gosh!” I let out, trying to meet up with Professor Logan’s car.He’s speeding away from our vicinity, making it difficult for me to catch up with him.“Hurry up!” I whisper under my breath to my bicycle, riding fast while also making sure he doesn’t see me coming after him.I turn every corner he turns to. Much to my surprise, I realize he’s driving back to the school direction.What? Why is he going back there? I wonder.“Fuck!” I yelp and squelch my tires to a stop when I see him kill his engine before a man standing by the sidewalk.I watch them in the dim parts, trying to hear what the blond-haired man is saying to him but it’s totally impossible to hear them.The blond then nods and enters the car. Professor Logan quickly starts the car and they zoom away.Again, I try to stalk my professor but the blaring horn and my name coming out of someone’s mouth makes me stop.“Rain!! Come over here!”Kylie! I mutter inwardly, turning my gloomy face to my girlfriend. She obvio
Logan’s POV.Hiding in Rain’s bathroom, I peep at the older woman and wait for her to leave. She tucks Rain's duvet well, caressing her hair.Though it’s dark, I still make out her face and she looks the same as the picture Lester showed when I asked him to dig in deeper about Mr. Hanks's household.The woman struts to the dresser but I can’t see what she did there exactly before reaching the exit.I thought she had left when I pushed the bathroom door open, the hinges hissed and her voice echoed in the dark room.“Who's there?”My eyes go owl-wide immediately, my breath stalling.“I said who’s there?” The woman screeches and I hear her footsteps coming closer.Fuck! I curse, clenching back into the bathroom. I don’t know what I step onto but I suddenly find myself in a small walk-in closet, and into a heap of Rain's panties.“Dammit!” I curse, picking up some panties to stuff over my mouth.Jeez, what the heck am I doing placing Rain‘s panties over my mouth? I ask myself.Regardless
Logan’s POV.The blinds are drawn, allowing the morning sun to filter into my study. My footsteps echo as I head over to my bar nonchalantly, grabbing a bottle of margarita.Back behind my desk, I settle into my seat with a wince and pour the drink into my glass filled with three ice cubes.The two young men in the room watch me with curiosity. I know Lester watches me with worry given the slight wound I obtained earlier this morning.“Hmmm…” a hum escapes me when I take a drink, wetting my throat. Then I glare back at Tiago. “Let me guess, the rulers have notched up their security just to keep us away from this town?”Tiago swallows, a grit to his jaw as he nods. It actually amazes me how he manages to pretend to be human all these years while living under the noses of the four rulers. The four founders of Oakdale.Tiago literally works for Mr. Hanks, the highest and most powerful of the four rulers.He's Mr. Hanks' assistant. Tiago fell in love with someone and decided to stay human
Rain’s POV. I wake up with a startling gasp, panting as my heart pulsates. My wide eyes take in my room. Fuck, I feel like something strange happened here last night. Omigod, I sigh at the banging in my head. It usually happens whenever I wake up the way I just did. I need a drink of water, I whisper inwardly to myself. Pulling the duvet aside, I cast my legs on the floor. When I rise up, I stretch my back, bones cracking at the impact. I was just about to move into the bathroom when my eyes closed in on a clump of sand on the floor. “What?” I bite out, feeling a rising tremble in my knees. I crouch low and scoop up the sand. My fingers smear over it and one thought races through my mind. “Someone was in here last night.” I gasp, wondering who. If it was Nadia she must have woken me up when she came into the room. Besides, Nadia’s shoes are always spotless. She never leaves a dent. Nadia is out of the question now. It has to be someone else, but who? Emerging back on my feet,
