All Chapters of The Professor : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

"Hey!"Maya slid into the space beside him, offering the brunette a soft smile. Derek returned the gesture by nodding once, shifting so she could sit comfortably. "Hey," He greeted back. That was when Maya noticed they were matching, he had on a blue collared-neck shirt and dark jeans while she was wearing a similar-coloured tank top with a black flannel."We're matching," She informed him and his eyes when he noticed it too. She chuckled softly at the stunned look on his face.The library was fairly busy today, more students were hanging around the building and it didn't come as a shock, everyone was serious when it came to their exams. Derek had texted her a little while ago, asking to see her in the library. At first, she found the request strange but agreed later on. "So, um," She cleared her throat awkwardly, placing her purse on top of the reading table. "How have you been?" He arched a brow at the question making heat creep to her face, "Sorry, that was a stupid question.""N

The moment she walked through his front door, she was attacked by different people, all eager to either measure her or get a glimpse of her face. She'd barely seen Alex since her arrival, he was also busy as well. The makeup stylist was excited to try new products on her face, the hair stylist was busy figuring out what type and colour of wig would suit her face shape and well, the lady in charge of the dresses wouldn't stop at one gown,By the time they were done with everything, it was already late into the night and Alex had come into the room like fifty times only to get chased out by the ladies. The three of them had decided on a black strapless lace corset-style gown that had a slit that started from the side of her thigh down to her leg. The top was sheer with only her breasts concealed while the bottom was a tight-fitting satin skirt that fell like a pool to the side. The entire outfit was paired with black open-toe stiletto heels and a silver studded clutch bag. Maya found th

Maya was stunned and speechless, heavy puffs of air escaped from her lips. She blinked several times as if that would change anything, maybe she hoped that it would. Then she wouldn't be standing in this fairytale-turned-nightmare. Jerry took a step forward and she took one back. He sighed despondently, dragging a hand down his face, "Look, Miss Greene, I know it's hard for you to believe me but-" She raised a hand, stopping whatever he was going to say, "Greenley. My name is Greenley.""I apologize, I thought -" "And if you are a friend of Alex like you said then you wouldn't be going behind his back and slandering him," She was fuming now but apprehension had begun to settle in her gut. "That's disgusting." Jerry sighed, shaking his head like she didn't understand anything and maybe she didn't. "Trust me, I've spoken to him about this."Maya frowned and cocked her head to the side, "And what was his response?"He shrugged, "He said that you-" "You two are well aware that this i

Maya quietly slurped on the smoothie in her hold, a pen in hand and eyes focused on the textbook on the table in front of her. Although Burberry's was fairly busy today, she'd chosen the booth far back in the restaurant, it was secluded and no one would get a good view of her unless they were looking very closely. Her first exam was in three days and to say that she was anxious was an understatement, pharmacology tests were quite difficult and she mostly had a hard time differentiating between the different compounds in some drugs. She took a small bite from the fries on the table and sipped from her drink again,Just then, her phone buzzed, the screen coming to life instantly. It was a text message from Jason asking when she would be arriving. She typed back a quick response saying she would be there in an hour. Maya dropped back her phone, returning her focus to the book.Jason was extra hyper for Derek's birthday, although he'd attributed it to his party-planning persona. She knew

His lips moved against hers but she remained frozen, his tongue brushed against her bottom lip and she tried earnestly not to wince. It wasn't that he was a terrible kisser, no it was the opposite,He was wonderful at kissing but she just felt nothing.She was expecting something to unfurl within her, maybe a tiny spark. But all she thought of while his lips were devouring hers was how different it would be if it was Alex kissing her. She thought of his smouldering dark eyes and his mint and sandalwood scent. Maya's eyes popped open and she met his closed ones. His arms were resting on her hips, fingers digging into the material of her gown. She couldn't do this, she couldn't.So Maya pushed at his chest, making his stagger backwards with a sharp gasp. She heaved, panting for breath. Derek looked baffled, the space between his brows furrowed deeply,"Did I-" He stopped, swallowing tightly, "Did I do something wrong?" "No, you didn't do anything," She shook her head, blinking away th
