All Chapters of The Professor Wants Me and So Does My Bestfriend: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

KaidenBy the time I stumbled back into my apartment, I was already drowning in a storm of emotions I couldn’t control. My head was heavy, my thoughts tangled, and my heart. if I could even still call it that felt hollow.I tried to shake it off. I tried to tell myself I was fine, that Sage ignoring me wasn’t the end of the world, that I didn’t need his approval, his friendship, or even his acknowledgment. But the lie felt weak. I had always thought that no matter what happened, Sage and I would always be something to each other.But now?He had disowned me.He had rejected me again and again, declaring that nothing could ever make him speak to me again. He proved it by walking off despite me calling him over and over again.He left me standing there, feeling stupid and letting the guilt eat me up alive. I didn’t know what to feel or do at that moment because I felt so shitty, I couldn't even stand myself.The words replayed in my mind over and over again, burning like acid. Burning t

KaidenI rubbed my hand up and down his back as he hiccuped, his body trembling against mine. He was hurting. Again.And yet again, here I was, comforting him.It sucked.It sucked because every single time, my own feelings got buried, shoved aside like they didn’t matter.Because to him, they didn’t.I poured out my heart to him and all he could say was for me to go to hell but here he was, in my arms sobbing like a baby because he was hurt.I was tired of this shit.I sucked in a deep breath and stepped back.His head snapped up instantly, eyes bleary and confused. “Why did you stop?”I shook my head. “I don’t know,” I admitted. Then, before he could say anything, I added, “You can handle yourself from here on.”His brows furrowed. “You’re leaving?” His voice was quiet, but there was something sharp beneath it.I crossed my arms. “Isn’t that what you wanted?” I asked, tilting my head. “To get rid of me? Well, I’m leaving. You don’t need me and you don’t need anybody so take care.”H

KaidenI ran a hand through my hair, staring at my phone screen.A single name sat there in my contacts after I searched it.River.I had already slept with Sage. It should have been enough. I should have been satisfied, exhausted and spent. But instead, something burned inside me, something restless, something unsatisfied.I left him there because I was angry at myself, I didn’t want that. I didn’t like the control even when I got it again. I wanted to submit. Ever since I got a taste of it, it’s been what I wanted to do.I certainly wished the professor took me up on that offer. I knew he was the exact person to give me what I needed.And I knew exactly what I needed to do.With a smirk curling on my lips, I hit the call button.It barely rang twice before he picked up. “What do you want, Kaiden?”Straight to the point. Typical.He didn’t even ask me how I got his number. With the amount of things he knew I had done, getting his number was on the least of it all.I leaned back on m

KaidenI heaved a sigh of relief once I was done patching him up. I slumped onto his couch, my body still trembling from the adrenaline rush of the attack. My clothes were torn in places, dirt smeared across my hands from when I had hit the pavement. My heart was still pounding, but I tried to steady my breathing.I couldn’t let him know that I was freaking out. I can’t even remember the last time I was in a fight. As a model, I strive to keep my image clean.I couldn’t afford the dirt that accompanied my profession. Playboy, chauvinist, drug addict or any of the names that brought bad press.My manager and I made sure we kept every part of me clean.Right now, I didn’t know what the fuck to think.Across from me, the professor eyes were locked onto me with suspicion. I could read every emotion in his eyes and I knew the question was coming.“Who did you piss off, Kaiden?” he asked, his voice like steel.I scoffed, rubbing at my sore wrist. “No one.”He let out a humorless laugh. “

SageI woke up to the steady beeping of a heart monitor, the sterile scent of antiseptic filling my nose. My entire body ached, a dull, pulsing pain that reminded me exactly why I was here.The attack.The masked men.Kaiden.The moment my brain caught up, I heard a familiar voice, loud, agitated."What do you mean ‘soon’? Define soon!" Kaiden’s voice carried through the hospital room. He was pacing furiously, his arms crossed tightly over his chest as he glared at the doctor standing in front of him."Mr. Kaiden, I understand your concern, but his body needed time to recover. He experienced significant trauma. His vitals are stable now, and as you can see—"I coughed, my throat dry and raw.Kaiden’s head snapped toward me in an instant. His pacing stopped, his blue eyes locked onto mine with an intensity that made my stomach tighten.He marched to my bedside, his expression filled with anger and a part of me hoped that it was worry that I could see on his face.
