Collared by Professor Valentino 67. Awfully happy
Dahlia Carrington~•~For the next week, I busied myself with studying. Since I had finished high school three years ago and didn’t need to study for the past three years, it was quite tough, but Aurelie was there to motivate me.I met some of her friends in the library and they were all welcoming. They had also heard the rumors and didn’t care if they were true or not. I lied they were not because I didn’t know them well but they actually wanted it to be true.“He’s hot.” Samantha, one of her friends with red hair, said. “I’ve seen him around in school and sometimes, I wish he was my professor so I could stare at him all lesson.”“Do you get?” Cassie, another one of her friends imputed. “He’s also young and I won’t blame anyone for fucking him. I wish I could but we barely cross paths. The good thing is that it won’t be a problem since I don’t take any of his classes.”Why didn’t I think about that? I shouldn’t have denied the allegations. I should have accepted the fact that we were

Dahlia Carrington~•~Monday came faster than I’d like. It was my first final exam for the semester and I was very nervous about it. I was confident I was prepared but that didn’t stop the feeling of anxiousness as I walked into the building where I’d be writing the first paper.I was like two hours early, not wanting to take any chances. Clementine and Aurelie had laughed at me for leaving so early but I was too nervous to care about their mockery.I took a deep breath and brought out my journal from my book bag. It was where I’d written down everything I revised. I wanted to go through them again. I went to turn the corner, only to bump into a figure that had me stumbling back.The person took the liberty of dragging me forward and pinning me to the wall. My eyes widened when I realized it was Roman. There weren’t many people in school by this time so the hallway was basically empty.“What are you doing?” I was irritated as I pushed him away from me.“Don’t be so harsh. I just wanted

Damon Valentino~•~I had known they weren’t going to find anything on Dahlia and me but I was still relieved when I got the email that their investigation was over. It was incredibly careless of them to end it without looking hard enough but it worked for me so I was grateful.I had an exam to supervise today, but even as I did, I kept thinking about Dahlia and the bruise on her neck. I knew Roman had been the one to do that to her and it angered me more than I’d like to admit.I had to strongest urge to help rearrange his face when I saw his hand on her wrist and after seeing that he had choked her, I was close to actually doing it. I knew if I started, I wouldn’t be able to stop until he was lying helpless and lifeless on the floor; until he could no longer be able to hurt Dahlia.It took all in me to turn away from him and look at the girl who had been making an appearance in all of my dreams; the ones I remembered anyway.After the exam came to an end and all the students handed
Collared by Professor Valentino 70. Holidays
Dahlia Carrington ~•~I didn’t see Damon after our encounter in his office, where he had told me to wait for four years for him. I knew it was going to be extremely hard and I didn’t know what I would do if he found someone else along the line but I was going to give it a shot. It was my fault for falling for a man ten years older than me, who happened to be my professor.However, not seeing him wasn’t part of the plan. On the day of his exam, he didn’t even come to supervise it nor was he in his office when I went to check. The office had been empty when I went to check, as though no one occupied it anymore.It worried me and I was tempted to go to his place and look for him, but I decided not to. I had promised him I would wait for him. Going to his home would only ruin that.“Are you sure you don’t want us to see you off?” I asked Prisha. Our holiday only lasted three weeks, but she was going back to India to spend it with her family. Clementine lived in the city so she had gone a

Dahlia Carrington~•~As expected, I spent Christmas alone.It was boring and depressing as I spent the whole day watching Christmas movies one after the other. It was the first time I wasn’t receiving expensive presents. It was the first time I wasn’t receiving presents. Period.At the end of the day, I stared at my phone, wondering if I should call him or not. I didn’t know if we were meant to stay away from each other for the four years we wouldn’t be together. I didn’t believe in the distance making the heart grow fonder. It was all bullshit as it was only irritating me.Throwing caution to the wind, I tapped on his number, crossing my fingers when it started to ring.The call rang out.I bit down on my bottom lip and tried again, but it had the same result. I hissed in annoyance. Why was he ignoring my calls now? How was I supposed to stay in love with him if he ignored me like this? Annoyed, I called one last time, telling myself I’d never call him again if he didn’t pick up th

Dahlia Carrington ~•~[Damon: how did it go with your parents?]I was back in my old room and it looked the same way I left it. There was a mascara and a lipgloss on top of my dressing table. I had a few books that I’d been reading to pass time on my table and a magazine was on my nightstand.The room didn’t have a speck of dust though, which meant they had continued to clean it regularly without touching anything else.I opened the camera app and took a quick selfie, sending it to Damon.[Me: this is what my childhood room looks like.]His reply came almost immediately. [Damon: you’re in California?][me: yep][Damon: Happy holidays then]I frowned at the response. It seemed like he was dismissing me. [me: are you busy? Can I call you now][Damon: another time]His replies were short and precise and it rubbed me the wrong way. I hated this. I hated feeling like I was begging him for his attention but I was bored and I never had any substantial to do at home.Then again, it was mid

Damon Valentino~•~I was quite worried when Dahlia told me she was back home. From what I knew, her parents didn’t want her to go to school and I didn’t know if they would let her come back or not.I was done tying all the loose ends at my job and I landed another job at a private university. I’d gotten it a week after applying because luckily for me, they were looking for a new Philosophy lecturer after the last one quit. It was like the offer was dropped in my lap.My holiday was quite boring because of my strained relationship with Dahlia. I spent every waking moment thinking about the girl. It was now two days to the new year and I was certain I had sorted everything out.My parents were skeptical about me switching schools and I told them the truth; the woman I loved happened to be my student and I didn’t want us to cross as professor and student again so I had to quit. My brothers applauded me for the bold move while Juan just called me a simp.I didn’t mind.Laying in my child

Dahlia Carrington~•~I didn’t know if I had done something wrong again. Damon had told me to wait until I was done with my degree before we could be together. Didn’t that mean that we weren’t currently together?I was worried. Was he mad at me again? He hadn’t replied to my texts after our call and it had been seven hours. He couldn’t be busy for seven consecutive hours, could he?I was halfway through a book when I heard the doorbell ring around the house. I frowned. My parents didn’t say they were expecting guests. Whenever they had a visitor, they always told me beforehand and warned me to behave.Ignoring it, I went back to my book. I was only going to stay in my room and wait out the visitor. About an hour after the doorbell rang, I heard a knock on my door.Begrudgingly, I got out of bed and trudged to the door, opening halfheartedly. However, when I saw who had been knocking, my jaw dropped.“What the…” the words trailed off and I rubbed my eyes to check if I was seeing clearl
