Chapter 6: Dear Dr. Brown
Last Updated:
2024-11-30 04:23:29"What is really going on?" I look into Liam's green eyes.
"Nothing babe, just ignore him. He is obsessed with you. Ignore him wherever you see him." "You said you wanted to tell me something." "I just wanted him to leave." He sits on the bed and puts his arm around me. "I haven't washed my body in days." I try to move away from him. "I don't care." He smiles, and kisses my head. Then, once again, I feel conflicted about my feelings for him. "I will pay you back for my medical bill, but in installments," I place my head on his shoulder and I wrap my arm around him. "No babe, don't pay me. I just want you to be okay. What really happened? Where were you three nights ago?" "Huh?" I ask, even though I heard his question. "Where were you three nights ago?" "I was at the hospital. I heard you came to see me." "Before that, when you were at home in Minnesota." His phone rings and I take a peek. I glare at him as he glances at me. "I have to take this," he turns the screen away. "Of course," I say bitterly. He walks out of the room as he takes the call. I take a shower and change out of the hospital clothes, wondering who changed my clothes when I was unconscious. When I get out of the shower, I find the room still empty, and I check my email for my timetables. Then an email catches my eye: *Dear TA Willow Gordon You must arrive in class an hour before. Be on time and prepare the material that I have attached. I don't get along with TAs who slack off. You better be useful. Dr. L. Brown.* I'm going to be working with this rude lecturer? Sheesh! This is probably some grumpy person who is going to make my days unbearable. Great. "What is it with you these days? Do you have something you need to tell me?" I ask as soon as Liam opens the door and comes back in. "Something like what?" He raises a brow. "Oh! I don't know. Perhaps you want to break up with me and go back to your wife!" "I told you it's an arranged marriage. I'm starting to think you enjoy saying that." "I just want to know what's going on between us." I fold my arms. "Then where were you three... No, four nights ago? Before you went to the club?" I look at his piercing gaze, and I feel compelled to tell him the truth. "I'm so sorry. Nothing happened, I promise. I slept in the bedroom and he slept on the couch." "Who slept on the couch?" He asks calmly. "Didn't he tell you? The stalker." "You were really with him?" "I'm sorry babe, I didn't have a choice. It was raining and..." "No, I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at him!" "So, you do know each other?" "Can we not talk about him?" "Why are my questions always avoided?" I ask angrily. "I'm not avoiding them, Willow." "What really happened Liam? I feel like our days of happiness are like a far away dream. Ever since I came back from the holidays, things have changed." He holds my hand and leads me to the bed. We sit on the edge of the bed, and he doesn't let my hand go. "Why didn't you tell me when you felt that you didn't love me anymore?" I swallow to stop the tremble in my voice. He shakes his head. "Why am I struggling to let you go?" I mumble, my voice still shaking. "Because we love each other, and we will work this out. Let me talk to my parents first." He puts his finger under my chin. "Do you think they would let you get a divorce?" "You are the one that I love, not Lucy. We both know how horrible Lucy is. I can't give you up for her." "I was so worried. I thought you fell out of love with me." "That would never happen." He assures me. I hold out my arms for a hug, and he moves closer to me. We continue to sit on the edge of the bed while we hold each other, and I finally feel my worries melt away. The doctor walks in and after examining me, she tells me that I'm good to go home. Then Liam offers to drive me to my place. "Can you believe it? The lecturer that I'm about to work for attached a document that consists of three hundred pages." I say once we are in the car. "And you should remember everything by tomorrow?" "Yep," I sigh. "Send him the doctor's note." "The problem is, I'm already afraid of whoever he or she is." "Are they on social media?" "No, but I got a rude email, and there are no pictures of the lecturer on the campus portal. The surname is Doctor Brown.” "Doctor Brown?” His eyes widen, and I notice that it takes his every strength to keep his eyes on the road. "Yes." I look at him in confusion. "Doctor L Brown?" "Yes." "Damn!" He frowns. "What?" "Can't you decline his offer?" “Do you know him?" "He is not a good person, babe. I will pay you triple the amount that you are supposed to earn. Just don't work for him." "What's wrong with him?" "You will find another job. You know you are smart." "But..." "Please, promise me." He cuts me off. The car stops at a parking lot and he glances at me. I nod solemnly. "Don't worry babe, you don't need him. I will help you find a better job." I nod, and he kisses my forehead. He walks me to my room and promises to bring me food. I take a nap, and he later knocks and gives me a paper bag from a Chinese restaurant. "I will see you tomorrow. Okay? Love you." He kisses my cheek. "Love you too." He smiles and leaves. I open my laptop to send emails to my lectures to inform them that I'm sick and won't be able to go to class. I ignore Dr. Brown and I decide to tell him about my decision not to accept the offer on the next day. After eating, I toss and turn in bed for about two hours until I decide to look at the email from Dr. Brown that I can't get out of my head. I type my reply, and I regret it immediately after sending it. *Dear Dr. Brown I will make it on time. Thank you for this opportunity. * I go through the material that he sent me. My eyelids feel like they’re weighed down by dumbbells, but I already feel like Dr. Brown is going to be on my case tomorrow. I study for ten minutes and take one hour breaks in between while trying to stay awake.Related chapters
Professor And The Feisty Human Chapter 7: Embarrassment
When I wake up, I find myself laying in bed and staring at the ceiling, with the relief that I woke up before my alarm clock rang. I finally pick up my phone and realize that the class will be starting in an hour! I didn’t set an alarm clock, and I should already be in class with Dr. Brown, in order to prepare for the lesson.I yank myself out of bed to take the quickest shower of my life, and I wear the first dress that I set my eyes on, with my heart already drumming as I think of my 15 minutes run to the chemistry lecture room.“I’m sorry I’m late, Doctor Brown,” I say breathlessly as I enter the empty lecture hall twenty minutes before class. “Hello Willow Gordon,” he looks up from the computer with a wide grin. Doctor Brown is the stalker? “Couldn’t my life be any worse?” I freeze on the doorway, and cover my mouth with my hand when I realize that I said it out loud. “Is that a nice thing to say to your new boss?” He raises his eyebrows. “No,” I shake my head. “Did you stu

Liam: Flashback I am holding the head of the dead rogue wolf in my hand, and it is in wolf form with its mouth open and its tongue out. I am welcomed by deafening cheers when I walk through the door of the wooden house, wearing my shorts with my body covered in sweat, dust and bruises that are already healing. "How are you, son?" Beta Duncan, who is my adoptive father, gets up from his seat, and walks towards me, standing taller than usual, and he pats my back with a wide grin that he struggles to hide. I just nod to indicate that I'm okay. I drop the head on the table, in the centre of the meeting house where the elders are gathered, and look I around the elder pack members who are looking back at me with pride on their faces. "If my daughter’s head wasn't filled with ideas about romance, I think the moon goddess would've chosen you for her." Alpha Hunter says with his lips curling up a little. I smile sheepishly, and I feel the pride surging within. "It was my daily ple

When I get to my room, I throw myself on the bed, and I try to cry myself to sleep, but I just cry and I don't feel sleepy. I get out of bed, to go to THC club again and guilt envelopes me. When I get out of the cab, I stand at the gate as I contemplate going in. This is the club that sells limbicus, the drug that killed my brother, but it is the only club that sells alcohol that can make me sleep for days. I decide that I'm going to drink one glass and rush to my dorm room to sleep afterward. “Don’t you dare even think about going in there!” I wince at the sound of the authoritative voice behind me. I turn, even though I know who it is.“You are not my dad, or my brother, or whatever you think you are.” I want to walk in, but I get rooted on the spot. “What are you doing here?” Dr. Brown folds his arms, ignoring my dramatic speech . “I'm doing what everyone does, obviously drinking. Are you stalking me again? You creep. You are my boss, for goodness’ sake.”He smirks, amused b

Leo Liam and I stare at Willow as she walks away. I walk away from Liam to walk after her, but Liam casually jogs, and stands in front of me to block my way. “Stop trying to turn my girl against me, or I’ll...” “Your threats are getting old.” I cut in dismissively, gazing at the corridor where Willow was a few seconds ago. “I can’t wait for the day you regret...” My smart watch buzzes, signalling the ringing of my phone. I grimace when I see Mike’s name, and I wave Liam off before walking back into my apartment to take the call. “Bro,” I say, while I try not to sound too annoyed. “Bro, we’ve run out of stuff. When will you deliver?” “How soon do you need it?” I exhale. “You can send it today. You always make extra.” “Well...” I trail off, wondering if this is a good time to tell him that I want to stop making limbicus. “Don’t tell me you have been slacking off.” His words me out of my train of thoughts. “I'm out of town.” “Really? They said they saw you outside my club,

Leo I use my snout to point at the end of the forest, showing Willow that she should leave, and she eyes me with doubt written on her face. I point again and she glances at Poseidon, Alpha Hunter's wolf, and her heart beats fifty times louder than before.She takes one step forward. The alpha growls and takes a threatening step towards her, while baring his sharp teeth. This causes her to take five steps back, then she runs further into the forest. Fuck! How am I going to fight for myself and protect her at the same time? Alpha follows her, taking slow, menacing steps. She looks back once, then she continues to run. By the time we reach her, we find her climbing a tree. My dad lets out a satisfied groan as he looks up at her, the glint in his eyes making my stomach churn. ‘Only if she knew that we could turn into humans and climb trees as well.’ ‘Are you my real father?' I glare at him. ‘I wish I wasn’t.’ He retorts. ‘I thought as much. You think I’m in love with a girl, and

Willow The big black wolf that protected me runs further into the forest, and he is followed by the other, more scary and bigger black wolf that looks at me like it’s mad that I exist. “Don’t go!” I shout at the wolf which had turned into my friend, but it seems not to hear me, or it probably thinks I’m crazy. I prepare to climb down the tree to go to help my wolf friend. I look down and four wolves walk towards the tree. I freeze, hoping that they won't notice me, but they stand right under the tree that I’m on. I suspected that these wolves could communicate, but now I’m really sure. “I know you guys understand me. I tried to threaten you with fake wolfsbane, but here you are, still fighting.” The female wolf with dark brown fur growls in response, and the other wolves do the same. “I can’t believe I’m arguing with wolves,” I chuckle nervously, and they growl amongst themselves. Where is Liam when I need him to talk to the wolves or to translate? “Liam?” I whisper, as if my

I open the door to create enough space for me to walk out, and as soon as I’m outside, I quickly close the door behind me. Professor Eleanor Malino smiles, showing me her straight white teeth and the warm smile again. I notice her green eyes light up behind her glasses, and I feel myself getting conflicted. My mind tells me she is danger, but my heart tells me I can trust her. “I know what’s going on, Miss Gordon.” She says calmly. “May I come in?” “Well...” I falter. “Students have been complaining about you.” “Did they tell you why?” “The security department was called by students who claim to be afraid of you. That’s all I know for now.” And they sent her for that? Not the security officers? She obviously knows more than she is telling me. I open the door to let her walk in, and I can't help but look at her white floral maxi dress. She is wearing white flip-flops, and her chestnut hair is in a simple ponytail. She also has a white cardigan on, and her whole look seems so h

“Liam? Why are your eyes red?” I repeat the question. “Probably an allergic reaction.” He shrugs. “You should see a doctor.” “I will.” He says dismissively. “Where is the wolf anyway?” “I will speak to Professor Malino to arrange your meeting with the wolf. It's in her lab.” “Malino?” His eyes widen. I nod in response. “Nope, I’m good. Can’t I sneak in?” “No, the lab is highly secured.” I remind him. “I know people who work at the lab. I will find a way to sneak in.” “Why won’t you let me ask her?” “We have history, and we really, really don’t get along.” “With Professor Malino? What did you do?” I eye him suspiciously. “Why do you suspect that I’m the one who did something wrong?” “Because she is sweet, calm, and motherly. So, for the two of you not to get along, you must have really crossed her.” “Sweet? Calm? Motherly?” He titters. “Yes, she is.” He chuckles. “Don’t ask her. I’ll find a way to get in before I go to sleep.” "May I come in then? Or is

Professor And The Feisty Human Chapter 24: Leo's Challenges
Leo After spending the entire night at my desk and on my laptop, trying to find anyone who will retrieve Willow’s videos, my morning alarm rings. I take a shower, then I make eggs benedict with smoked salmon for Jessica, and as promised, I take her breakfast to ‘her bedroom’. She smiles when she sees her breakfast and tells me how much she loves me. I roll my eyes in response, and I tell her about my plan to go to Professor Malino for help regarding Willow’s videos. “That’s a great idea. Professor Malino always knows what to do.” Her mouth is filled with food. I raise my eyebrows, and she smiles sheepishly. “Don’t look at me like that, you haven’t made me breakfast in a long time.” She says after swallowing. “Send her my regards and tell her I will meet her later before going back to Carkeek Park.” I nod in response, and I leave. I go to the flower shop to buy a bouquet of various flowers for Professor Malino, to bribe her to get the lab's CCTV footages for Willow, and to show h

Leo I bolt out of the elevator, and I rush to the parking lot to get my car. I drive past a scene of an accident, and I notice a truck. Then there are people and cars surrounding the area, with blue and red lights flashing. I try to trace Jessica’s scent, but I struggle to find her. I make a U-turn and park my car on the side of the road to see what’s going on. ‘Asclepius, I need you to take control. Please help me find my sister.’ I ask my wolf to come forth to so that my senses can be elevated. My wolf takes control, and he smells Jessica’s scent coming from the scene of the accident. He lets out a distressed howl, and I let myself regain control. I take deep breaths to try to remain calm, and I slowly head to where the crowd is gathering. “What happened?” I ask the first person I set my eyes on. “These kids and their motorcycles. Poor thing didn’t see an approaching truck. That was unfortunate.” The lady with the grey hair says as she walks away. A motorcycle, a truck? My

Leo “Wwwhat are you doing here?” She knits her eyebrows, her face as pale as a ghost.I hold on to the door frame to find my balance, as my knees feel weak and I feel dizzy. 'Mate! Mate! Mate!' My wolf’s excitement gets me irritated. ‘Moon goddess, I swear, I don’t think I deserve this punishment.’ I say internally. ‘This is my mate? Out of all people on the planet, it had to be her!’ ‘Dude, why didn’t I feel the mate bond when we were at the hospital?’ I ask my wolf. ‘Look at you, learning through your mistakes.’ He replies smugly. I decide to deal with my wolf later, and to find out what my intended mate was doing in Willow’s dorm room. I decide on the bold approach, to act as if I already know she is the suspect. “Why? How could you do this to your own sister?” I glower at her. She holds the doorknob, pushing the door towards me. I place my foot to prevent the door from closing. “I’m not going to let you get away with this!” I push the door with one hand in her direction
Professor And The Feisty Human Chapter 21: Another Mate
Leo Willow glances at me, and then at my sister, Jessica, before looking back at me. Fresh tears form in her eyes, but she blinks to hold them back. I break eye contact to stop the guilt that is brewing up within.“Thank you for everything, and I’m so sorry for coming here.” Her voice is shaky and she diverts her attention to Jessica. “Hi, nice to meet you.” She forces a smile before storming out of the room. Jessica opens and closes her mouth without saying a word. Then, a smirk forms on her lips, and I glare at her. “Willow!” I run after her, and she gets in the elevator.She is standing in front and there are a few people with her, but she doesn’t bother to press the button to stop the doors from closing. A guy standing behind her moves quickly forward and presses the button. I run to the elevator and I stand next to her. She rolls her eyes at me, and then she looks away. “Willow...” I whisper. “Don’t!” She says between her teeth without looking at me. I feel the curious sta

My skin runs cold when I open the door to my room. Someone has been to my room! I feel shivers run down my spine, with my shaking hand still on the light switch. I stand rooted in the doorway, as my legs turn mushy, and my heart beats like I have been running a marathon. I look around my messy room, with the couch moved and the cupboards open. This person even has a key, and they locked the door when they finished messing up my room. What if someone is still in here and they locked themselves in? They could easily see me with the light on. “Hhhhhhi. Hello?” I try to control my trembling voice. I don’t hear a word or any movement. I slowly close the door and I hold it tightly before locking. Then, I run to the police station on campus. “Someone has been to my room, and they have a key.” I say between breaths. “Calm down.” One officer says. “It’s you. The wolf girl. Why don’t you get your wolf to help you?” Another officer frowns.“That’s a mean thing to say.” The first officer
Professor And The Feisty Human Chapter 19: A Little Showdown With Lucy
When I walk into class, I bump into a hard surface that doesn’t feel like a wall. “Watch it!” A voice roars. The large and looming figure that is looking down at me makes me shiver. His eye contact is intense, and the scars on his face seem permanent, as if he was born with the scars. “You watch where you going!” I stand in front of him, unwavering, but my heart rate shoots through the roof. “Oh! Sorry, it’s you, princess.” He grins, showing his blindingly white teeth. “Do I know you?” I blink, trying to comprehend where his sudden grin comes from. “No, I don’t think so. I just saw that video of you walking with a wolf and I knew that you shouldn’t be messed with.” “But I haven’t seen you in any science class before, during any year. Students don’t know the names of most classmates, but we know each other’s faces.” “I’m the quiet one who prefers to be undetectable. Maybe that’s why.” He shrugs. “Okay, I’m gonna go sit down.” I cut the conversation to get away from his intense
Professor And The Feisty Human Chapter 18: Leo, Liam and Lucy
After class, I wait for everyone to leave, and I walk to Leo’s desk. “How could you do this to me? Do you know how many people are going to hate me because of what you did? Did you do this because I made you to leave last night?” I glare at him. “Which question should I answer first?” He asks calmly. “This is not a joke, Professor Brown.” “I told you to call me Leo.” “But we are in class, and a student might walk in. Please answer me.” “I didn’t know you thought so highly of yourself. I don’t have that much free time to change my teaching schedule because of you. Especially someone who is blinded by infatuation.” He says that while organizing his papers, without looking at me. “Why are you insulting me? Unless you are really bitter because of last night.” “No. I wanted to teach Paris a lesson, along with those who think they will be able to seduce me.” “I get that, but what about me? Why did you put me on the spot like that?” “You don’t like to talk. I want you to connect ot

Willow I toss in bed for the entire night, while thinking about Leo. I know I feel something for him, but what I feel for Leo is not as strong as what I feel for Liam. Although, I would never let anything happen between Leo and I. One heartbreak is enough, I can’t handle another. My alarm rings, bringing me out of my train of thought, and I get up to prepare for CHEM 475 class. When I’m outside my room and trying to lock my door, a group of students who are passing by steal glances at me, and their loud laughter turns into whispers. I ignore them and I walk to the lecture hall. On my way to the lecture hall, I see a student staring at me, then another, and then, more gawking eyes. To avoid the stares on campus, I try to walk faster to class, but the tight knot in my stomach doesn't disappear, and it makes want to go back to lock myself in my dorm room. I have always been a weird girl who doesn’t spend time with anyone, but now I’m a weird girl who walks around with a wolf, and th

She has been through so much already, with her family, her boyfriend getting married and spending a night in a forest with wolves. I take a deep breath while Professor Malino’s words echo in my mind, ‘You are not a coward.’ I call Mike, and the moment he picks up, I don’t give him a chance to say another word. “I told you I wasn’t around! You’ll get the merch tomorrow, and don’t you dare test me, Mike! You can't threaten a man's family.” “My customers are soon going to experience withdrawal symptoms. If you love your sister, you will make the delivery by tonight.” He says calmly, and then he hangs up. I throw my phone on the bed, and I pace back and forth in my room. If Willow finds out that I’m the creator of limbicus, she is really going to hate me for the rest of my life. If something happens
