All Chapters of The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

KaidenIn the lecture hall, the faint scent of lavender and cedar lingered, a scent I couldn’t ignore even if I tried. It was Sage’s scent, soft, alluring and a whisper of the beta’s presence that made my wolf stir beneath his skin. Sage didn’t know his own allure, oblivious to the ripple of interest he left behind everywhere he went. But I knew. I had always known.From the moment we met, I had vowed to protect Sage from everything, including himself. Alphas were predators by nature, drawn to the innocence and vulnerability of a beta like Sage. He wasn’t an omega yet he possessed qualities like one.But I wasn’t an alpha, although I was possessive, territorial, and deeply aware of how much control it took to keep myself from claiming Sage outright.The problem was, Sage didn’t belong to me. Not yet.Sage was sitting in the front row, furiously jotting down notes as Professor River droned on about some engineering stuff. His deep voice was smooth as honey, laced with that Alpha autho

I know.”Kaiden leaned against the kitchen counter, crossing his arms as he looked at me. His gaze wasn’t judgmental, more amused, like he was waiting for me to settle down.“You’re making this a bigger deal than it is,” he said af

KaidenMy eyes narrowed as soon as I entered the bar, right there in front of me was Sage with his head on someone’s shoulders.A male, a male that wasn't me.I was pissed off, when the call came from Sage that he was going to hang out with friends on a school night, I immediately discouraged it.I didn’t want anyone having Sage’s attention and I certainly didn’t want them hitting on Sage. Only I knew how beautiful Sage was, and with his kind of body, everybody wanted a piece of him but the little shit didn’t know it.He was naive and oblivious to everything and everyone around him, that made him an easy target but I wasn’t happy with that because I was the only one allowed to manipulate Sage.My fists clenched involuntarily when Sage’s course mate leaned in and whispered something in his ear, and Sage laughed.The little shit actually laughed like he was being entertained by a comedian and that made me pissed because Sage was supposed to be pushing them away and not laughing at their
