All Chapters of My Vampire Professor: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Tessa’s POVThis time when I slipped back into the darkness, I knew it was a temporary one. I had my best friend lying beside me; she curled up in the bed Dr. Cornelia brought for her and pushed against mine; she got as close to me as possible, and I could feel her warmth and love radiating from beside me.Whatever Dr. Cornelia gave me, numbed all the pain I once felt and made me feel like I was floating again. It also made my eyelids incredibly heavy. I didn’t want to fall asleep; I wanted my voice back. I wanted to talk to Ruby, but I couldn’t. I just wanted to sleep.It was a dreamless sleep; I was used to being alone in the dark. I once found it peaceful here, but now I just found it aggravating. I wanted to be with my friends; I wanted to be with Joseph. But instead, I was stuck here.Dr. Cornelia said that I was mentally, physically, and soulfully exhausted and that was why I couldn’t move or speak. It was like I was here, but I wasn’t here. He told me once I allowed my body pro

Tessa’s POV“So, you knew Joseph was a vampire this entire time?” Ruby asked, peering over at me with an alarmed and yet curious look.My face warmed as she continued to stare daggers at me, and I found myself lowering my head before answering.“Yes,” I finally said after a short pause. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner. I promised him I wouldn’t say anything…”“This entire time we’ve had a vampire as a professor…” she breathed; it wasn’t a question, but I nodded anyway. “And it’s safe to be around him?”I couldn’t help but smile at my best friend; it was nice to have someone to talk to about this now.“There’s a lot of stereotypes when it comes to vampires,” I told her. “Like they don’t need blood to survive. Joseph doesn’t drink blood like that.”She rose her brows.“If that’s the case then what happened to you? How’d you get hurt? They said you suffered from severe blood loss.”I met her eyes and bit onto my bottom lip almost nervously as she assessed my face and every bruise tha

Tessa’s POVI stared at Joseph with shock; his face had gone expressionless. I must have looked extremely confused to him because he sighed and met my eyes.“It’s for the best,” he told me, keeping his eyes rested on mine. “I don’t want to take any chances…”“Because of one bad vampire?” I argued, trying to keep my emotions under control. But the longer I stared into his eyes, the more hurt I was becoming.“It’s not just one bad vampire, Tessa,” Joseph argued but he kept his tone level. “ There are rogue vampires lurking in our forests that we don’t know on which day they will crave for human blood again. There are other creatures. I don’t know if I can even trust everyone in my tribe at this point. It’s not safe for you here and I’m not going to argue with you about it.”“Don’t I have a say in—”“No,” he said flatly. “You don’t have a say in anything. This is my decision and I’m not going to let you stay here any longer. As soon as Dr. Cornelia gives me the okay, I’m bringing you hom

Tessa’s POVThe words that have been making a nest in my heart for what felt like an eternity have finally been spoken out loud. I couldn’t stop them once they filled my heart and escaped my lips. Joseph was still breathing hard after his climax, and he remained on top of me.I said those words between his lips as he kissed me and then once the words registered in his mind, I felt his entire body freezing.“You don’t have to say it back,” I said quickly, running my fingers through his hair. “I just thought you should know how I was feeling.”For a moment, I thought I saw pain flashing through his eyes, and I wondered what that was about. I ran my fingers down the side of his face, and he closed his eyes, leaning into my touch. I leaned up and kissed him gently on the lips.To my surprise he deepened the kiss; his tongue explored my mouth curiously and I loved every feeling of it. Even though he didn’t say it back, I felt lighter now that he knew how I felt. I was glad he knew how I wa

Tessa’s POVBack to the same routine. The vacation was finally over, and reality was setting back in. It was time to return to school and pretend that I wasn’t completely head over heels in love with Joseph. I didn’t even care that he hadn’t said it back. Like Ruby said, he was probably afraid to take that next step.But over the next few weeks, I’m going to prove to him that I’m worth loving and that he can trust me. I’m going to prove to him that I’m okay with his lifestyle and I’ll be more than okay in the village in the mountains.I had a minor freakout with those asshole men the other night, but Joseph was there to protect me and he got me home safely. I have a feeling I won't be bothered for a very long time. Joseph certainly made an impression on them, and word will get around quickly.I smiled at the thought of Joseph standing up for me. He might not tell me that he loves me with words, but he shows me with his actions and that’s more than enough for me.I spent most of last n
