CHAPTER 10| PROFESSOR GRAY
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56How can he be so perfect? And now I just discovered he's in college and 23 years old. Roxie coughs as she turns on her barstool to look at me. She's been pretty lucky these past months. After her encounter with her one night stand, Ren, they have been seeing each other since then. Ren is hot, Irish and pretty rich himself. He kinda liked her, but Roxie doesn't seem to like him that much and that's because of Stevie. He's still calling her and I'm sure they've

WRONG CHAPTER 11| WE MEET AGAIN
I walk into the classroom straight to the lecture podium. I should have probably stopped by my new office and dropped my blazer, 'cause it's kinda hot in here. It's not like there aren't working air conditioning here, it is the anticipation of seeing the one man who's made me feel all these weird feelings these past months. It's strange and foreign and I hate that I'm starting to feel like that again even if I haven't seen him yet. I drop my bag on the desk and lecture textbooks and notes on the desk. I look up at my supposed students and I count nearly 100 students. There are a lot and I don't bother to look for Chase. I can't, cause I'm scared I'll screw up and fuck my first lecture up. I clear my throat as so many eyes stare at my face. All right here we go. A girl approaches me as she hands me the roll call. It's the list of the student's names that are taking my class this semester
WRONG CHAPTER 12| I NEVER FORGOT THAT NIGHT
" I can't do this." I say as I walk inside Roxie's apartment that evening. I just got home after class, took my bath, didn't bother to eat as I drove down to Roxie's apartment. I needed someone to talk to. Someone who's gonna talk me out of thinking about going over to Chase's apartment. Although we have a lot to talk about but, I don't want to risk it. Me and my instincts know it's definitely not gonna be only talking. I see Tanner in Roxie's kitchen holding a bottle of water. " Oh hey, Lauren." Tanner smiles at me. " Hi, Tan." I groan and fall down on Roxie's couch. " Definitely you had a nice day." Roxie chimes as she smirks. I roll my eyes. Aside from seeing Chase again, my day was great. " So did you meet him? Did you two kiss?" Tanner asks as he sits next to me on the couch with his shit eating grin. I
WRONG CHAPTER 13| OFFICIALLY MINE
CHASE'S POV Fuck! Six months. I couldn't get her out of my head. Never in my life have I craved for a woman whom I've fucked once. Normally when I see a woman I liked, it's always sex. The minute you're in my bed, the next you're out. I'm never fucking you again. But having Lauren in her bed, with my head in between her legs and me fucking her senseless I just couldn't help it. I couldn't stop thinking about her. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't. I wanted to have her again. And again, every single fucking day. The second I left her apartment that fateful night six months ago, I regretted leaving without at least taking her number. And seeing her yesterday on that podium as she introduced herself as my substitute physics professor, I was shocked. I least expected the woman who gave me crazy dreams for the last five months to be standing right in front of me. And she's my professor.
WRONG CHAPTER 14| STAY AWAY
My heart is hurting but I have to help myself if I'm willing to keep my job and my career. As Leo talks about things that I'm not interested in, I watch Chase walk away with his friend. With my heart in his care. " Do you maybe want to get lunch some other time?" Leo asks, snapping me from my thoughts. " Hmm?" I blink my eyes as I quickly avert my gaze at Leo. " Are you okay?" Leo asks. " I'm fine." I sigh and cross my arms, my eyes meeting the younger girls who admired Leo as they walk past us. He's hot, definitely. For a lecturer of his age, he truly got the girl's attention. But he's not my type. I can shamelessly agree that the man who stole my heart and shut my brain with just one smile is my student, my big case, and the key behind my promotion. My own corner office. " I said if you'd like to grab lunch with me some other time?" He asks. " Uh… I don't know. But I'll think about it."
WRONG CHAPTER 15| HURTS TO WATCH
It's Friday afternoon and I'm having lunch at the staff restaurant with Jade and Madelyn. I met them yesterday and they're also lecturers from the same faculty as me. They're pretty great though. "— and then I told my man if he wasn't ready to take me to Hawaii for vacation, then I'm not interested anymore." Madelyn says and Jade laughs. I really don't know what's funny. Jade's shorter than me. Latin American, olive skin, big green eyes and she's kinda pretty. She dresses in tight clothing sometimes and I'm always tempted to take her to a corner and tell her her choice of clothing is too tight. I don't know why she dresses like that though, it's like she has this massive crush on Leo with the way she throws her arms around him when they stop to talk. And she always giggles a lot. And Madelyn, she's white. Pale skinned, grey eyes, she's tall, and smiles a lot. Well she's one of the few female teachers who d
WRONG CHAPTER 16| TEACH ME, SENSEI
We stare at each other for what feels like forever. I ultimately looked away to stare at Anderson who asked a question earlier and I was too occupied by Chase to catch what he said. " I'm sorry I just —" Sigh. " What did you say?" " Are you really okay?" He asks. I sigh and bite my lip as I sneak a glance at Chase who was also staring at me. I can't tell what's going on in his mind, but by his eyes he's not happy to see me with another man. How dare he! How dare he go out on dates with women and get mad and angry because I'm on a date with a man. Why am I being dramatic? Am I not the same person who told him to forget that night ever happened. Fuck, I least expected he would move on so quickly. Men are so fucking annoying. I bite my lip and stare at Anderson who's still staring at me expectantly. " The man you saw outside with that redhead…" Anderson nods fo
WRONG CHAPTER 17| PLAY NURSE
It's been days since my talk with Chase. I can't believe I've finally ended things. It was awkward the following day for me 'cause throughout the lecture Chase didn't show up. I was worried. For the short time I've begun teaching his class, Chase doesn't miss any of my classes. And today is Friday, Chase wasn't in my class yesterday either. I was tempted to call him and then I realized I didn't have his number. God I miss him and it hurts we can't be more than anything professional. Even though Anderson and I are already dating, I still find myself thinking about Chase throughout the whole week. Anderson and I are now officially dating even if we're not in a relationship. He's not that bad. Every night he's always calling to check on me while sometimes he just drops me romantic texts just to ask after my day. Beyoncé’s album blast through my stereo as I make dinner for myself. It's nearly 6pm and I have papers to grade. I hum to the so
WRONG CHAPTER 18| CAUGHT AGAIN
" Am I interrupting something?" A voice calls as Chase is about to kiss me. I pull away at once as I clear my throat. I turn to look at the living room and Tina is standing there, shocked. Shit. I turn to look at Chase and he's smirking at me. He stands up slowly. " I guess I should head out. See you around, professor." He winks at me and walks out of the kitchen, to the living room. He gives Tina a curt nod as he walks past her to the foyer. Tina blinks as she turns to stare at Chase who's already down the foyer. She looks back at me as she walks towards the kitchen. I open the fridge to retrieve a cold bottle of water as I pour it in a glass. " Chase..." " What are you doing here? What happened to 'call me before you show up?'" " Okay you're being paranoid and over dramatic." Tina rolls her eyes and drops the backpack she's carrying on the floor. She rounds the

He was transferred to a maximum security prison in Russia. He's not getting out anytime soon.Regina was also arrested. She was found guilty. I was right. She was compromised and she truly worked with Reynold to ruin my life and my career. She confessed later after she was confronted.

42| THE END" How certain are you that Regina is working for Reynold Boyce?" Tanner asks that Tuesday evening.We're in my house and they're here to console me because I just got fired because I slept with my client. It's not their fault, I told my friends, maybe I deserve it. I'm too reckless.I've been calling Chase's number throughout these past days, he's not picking up my calls. I'm on the verge of driving to his house myself. I'm worried about Tina, I miss Chase.

41| EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED" Something is wrong. How's he out of jail?" Tanner asks as he paces the floor of my living room.It's Sunday. I spent Saturday night crying, cursing Reynold and thinking about the countless ways I wanted him dead. I've tried calling Chase's number but it's not connecting. I think he blocked my number. My life's over. The only man that I fell in love with, I ruined everything. Maybe I was the reason Caleb left me for that redhead bitch. Because of me my sister is nowhere to be found. She's skipping classes and nobody has seen her around because I kicked her out.Why don't I ever make good decisions? How the fuck did I ruin my fucking relationship with a man that made me happy? He was right. I care so much about my

40| I'M SORRYI don't pay attention to the two men who're about to kill themselves for thousands of dollars but on Reynold Boyce. My heart is beating strangely too fast. Reynolds eyes are locked on mine as he gets off the stage. I bite the inside of my cheeks, suddenly feeling the urge to get the hell out of here. I want to throw up right now.How the hell is he out of jail?But I can do this. I have to be strong and supportive for Chase's sake. Reynold Boyce won't stop looking at me with his sly one sided smirk." How's he out of jail?" I ask the question that's been eating me up since I laid my eyes on Reynold." I don't know. I'm going to
WRONG CHAPTER 39| THE UNEXPECTED VISITOR
" Who do you think would send you such creepy messages?" Tanner asks.It's Saturday morning and I barely slept last night. I spent the night thinking who would want to send me such creepy weird messages and no name came to mind. Well except Regina. But why? I called my friends on FaceTime this morning to find a solution to this. I can't tell Chase. I don't want him to worry because of me and the other reason is because I don't want him to know about my job. I want to tell him myself and I'm planning on doing that tomorrow which is Sunday." Tanner, can you at least decipher whose person's number is that?" Roxie asks. We're all in our houses since it's Saturday morning." It's a blocked number and a complete dead end." Tanner says, shaking his head.

I knock on Roxie's door as I patiently wait outside." Yeah. Come in." Roxie's voice calls out to me.I slowly open her door and step inside her office. Her desk is filled with different paperwork and she's on the phone with someone. She sees me and smiles at me." Lauren!" She smiles proudly." I'm gonna call you back, babe." She says to the other person on the phone and hangs up.Roxie drops her phone on her desk and rounds the desk to hug me." Oh babe." She squeezed the life out of me. I laugh and we pull apart, wit
WRONG CHAPTER 37| CONFRONTATION
I wake up to the smell of coffee, bacon and eggs in the air. Without being told, I know my mom's behind that beguiling aroma. It's Monday morning. The day all of this pretentious act that has to deal with Chase comes to an end. If I'm lucky, today should be a good day for me. Chase left last night and I don't remember him leaving my bedroom. When I woke up at midnight, I found a handwritten note by Chase, telling me he couldn't spend the night and that he had to leave. Attached with beautiful kisses and I love yous. I quickly take a shower and get dressed in a dark grey short sleeve dress. I slip my feet inside my pumps. I add a little natural make up and twirl around in front of my mirror. I look good. I grab my handbag and walk out of my bedroom to the kitchen. I am correct. Mom is in the kitchen eating bacon and eggs, with coffee on the side." Good morning, ma." I smile at my mom and grab a mug to pour myself some already brewed coffee."
WRONG CHAPTER 36| MORE THAN EUPHORIA
" It's illegal right?" I ask Chase. We're in my bedroom and he's yet to leave after dinner. My fingers play with the diamond necklace he bought me around my neck. I still can't believe he'd get me something like this. And then his words kept ringing in my head.'I don't want you to hurt me.'" What's illegal?"" The underground fighting club." I say.Chase smiles." I mean, for a long time I knew underground fighting was illegal. Big, rich men, who get off watching two people try to kill themselves have tried to legitimize it, but I don't think they've succeeded."
WRONG CHAPTER 35| DINNER
On Sunday, I clean the house and constantly check my phone for a reply from Chase. I haven't gotten anything yet. I feel like he was ghosting me." Are you okay?" Mom asks when we sat down for breakfast that morning. " You've been checking your phone constantly? Is it the boyfriend?"I roll my eyes." Yeah."" Something wrong? You guys fighting again?"" It's not really fighting. There's this guy I actually dated for a short time because I wanted to... you know...try and get Chase out of my head. Well…Chase got pissed I was dating him and this other guy and he wa
