Forest green to ocean blue!
For the slightest second, everything stopped. Only the ticking of the clock could be heard. Both drowned in each other's eyes.
Emma was the first to come back to her senses as she lowered her gaze. "C-clear." She answered softly while the man peered at her with an intense gaze.
He looked as though he was in a trance. Her heart stopped beating for a second when he raised his hand towards her face. She watched his hand with her wide blue eyes.
What was he doing?
His fingers caressed her cheek, and a chill ran down her spine as she jerked back from his forbidden touch and it was enough for her to get off the chair abruptly. Her legs were jello and her heart was stuttering badly.
With no words out, she recklessly put her books in the bag and zipped her bag ready to leave when all of a sudden he stood up and blocked her way, making her take two steps back abruptly.
Emma was speechless. She was too shocked before but now her brain was working properly and the fact that he as a teacher tried to cross his line terrified her.
She heard him cursing under his breath. "It's enough for today." He said calmly but she didn't respond.
She tried to walk past him but he didn't budge, making her a lot more nervous. "Mr. C..Colt, please move aside." She said with mustered up confidence to which she was thankful to herself.
"On Monday, be on time." He ordered her curtly, making her nod hesitantly.
With that said he moved to the side so she could pass. Emma didn't wait for a single second and dashed out of his office at full speed. The hallways were almost empty as everyone had left.
Once she reached the main gate she panted heavily because of all that running.
What was that?
Emma is no child that she would not notice a sudden change in someone's behavior. He looked in a trance as if he wanted to see something by touching her. Has he lost his mind?
Why would he do that?
In no freaking way, she was going to take math lessons from him ever.
Emma went straight to her work.
"Why so tense?" Connor popped his head in from the kitchen door startling her and Stacy.
"You scared us!" Stacy complained, making him pout.
"Nothing, just all assignments, and stuff." She said softly with a smile.
Emma was good at hiding her feelings behind her smile. Connor raised his brow at her before he ruffled her hair just to annoy her.
"Hey!" She complained.
"What? I like to ruffle your hair." Connor feigned innocence, making Stacy chuckle as Emma glared at him.
As soon as they got back to their work, those mysterious green eyes invaded her mind all over again.
At home, she didn't feel like having dinner. She laid down on her bed and gazed out of the window. The moon was almost to its fullest form and looked beautiful. The stars twinkled, looking exquisite. She closed her eyes for a peaceful slumber only for a certain someone's face to flash in front of her eyes.
She groaned in annoyance. Thank God she got weekend days otherwise God knows what would've happened tomorrow if she went to Horace Mann.
After tossing and turning on her bed like a gazillion times she finally went to sleep.
The next day she did all her outstanding housework like laundry, cleaning, and whatnot. At night she made pasta for herself and watched Man of Steel that was on tv.
A harsh knock on the door had her body freezing all of a sudden. No one ever came to her place. Connor just left after walking her home. Who could it be?
With shaking hands, she mute the tv and then walked to the door. She peaked through the small hole and her brain ceased to work when her eyes landed on two men standing at her door. She knows them, they are gang members but why are they here? Did they find out she was a girl and lives alone here?
She's not even in her boy attire so she can't face them. Dread started creeping into her bones when they knocked again making her flinch.
"We just need some water for our friend." Said one of the guys.
Emma was fast to dash into the kitchen; take out a water bottle from her fridge. She walked back to the door. Wore her grandpa's gloves and slightly opened the door making sure not to remove the safety lock. The door opened as much as the safety lock allowed and she pushed the bottle out.
Only her glove hand was visible. Both the men stared at each other before one of them took the bottle. She immediately closed the door shut and secured it with all the locks.
She finally let out a breath of relief when their footsteps fade away.
Wiping the sweat away from her forehead she plopped down on her couch and took a few deep breaths in to calm herself down.
That night she double-checked her door and also locked all her windows before sleeping peacefully.
The next morning she woke up to the shrill sound of her phone ringing wildly.
Groggily she picked up her phone only for her eardrums to blast with Connor's high yelling voice.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!"
"Stop shouting, Connor." She mumbled softly while rubbing her eyes.
"You're no fun Em!" He muttered and she was sure he was rolling his eyes now.
"Be ready at 8 okay. You're finally 18! God, I cannot believe this. Just yesterday you were so tiny and today you're all grown up." He was so cheerful.
"Relax Connor!" She mumbled softly.
"You're not a morning person at all," Connor grumbled, making her chuckle.
"See you at 8." She replied as they bid their bye.
A deep sigh left her lips.
One year down, God knows how many to come.
"Finally I'm an adult now." She muttered to herself with a smile and snuggled more into her sweet bed.
Fucking pathetic shit! This was the best his beta could do. To make him a fucking math teacher at this stupid high school. He was already pissed off at all the things going on among the packs and now he has to teach these bratty kids math! Xander rubbed his stubble-clad jaw when his phone started ringing. "What's up, Xander?" Came Ethan's voice making him grit his teeth in anger. "I'm gonna show you what's up in hell when I come back!" Xander growled lowly making Ethan chuckle lightly. "Sorry bro but this is all I could do. No one would ever suspect that an Alpha of Moon pack is teaching math at some high school." Ethan mused, making Xander angrier. "Come on! It's not that b
The whole day was boring but she didn't ponder on it much. She was accustomed to living alone so those surprise birthday parties and posh gifts were never her yearnings, all she ever wanted was love but got loneliness instead. Having nothing to do she decided to pamper herself a little. Switching on her phone she opened YouTube and searched for videos on how to make face scrubs and stuff with kitchen products. And then she busied herself with her manicure, pedicure, and other stuff. After showering, she stared at her reflection in the mirror. Her skin was white, her bosoms were big but her tummy wasn't taut nor chubby it was normal, her waist wasn't tiny but it was small, then she had hourglass-shaped hips and thick thighs. But the vicious scar on her ribs was a great reminder of her ugliness. Overall she looked
"MATE!" She abruptly looked behind and her eyes widened when they met with the enraged forest green ones. Emma froze in her place as Connor too stood up staring at the man who was breathing heavily as if enraged. Blade growled inside his head to rip his mate away from that man but Xander tried to control himself. He cannot let anyone know what he was or else the words would be out and his whole plan would be a complete disaster. But she was his fucking mate! The same little girl who always seemed to run away from him was his mate. He never thought that he would ever have a mate. That too a human mate. He was sure for a
The next day Emma got ready. She wore a large button-up shirt and skin-tight high waist jeans, the idea of tucking her shirt in felt appealing but the mocking and hooting of being called fatty didn't let her proceed with her idea so she let the shirt stay as it was. Making herself a strong coffee with toast and fried egg. She ate her food in silence. The reason she had time to eat breakfast was that Connor came in the early morning to meet her as his flight was in an hour. They both cried and he instructed her how to be cautious all the time and many more safety tips. After that, he left and she didn't feel like sleeping so she just lay on her bed and cried her heart out but she was strong enough to compose herself. She took a fresh bath and changed. Now she was eating her breakfast and decided to call Connor but
Emma contemplated whether to knock at the door of his office or make a beeline out of the academy. But she recalled how he commanded her on Friday to be in his office on time. Veronica was hot on her tail, following her almost everywhere to make sure that Emma didn't meet Mr. Colt but here she was ready to face the dangerous man. 'It's okay Emma, be confident and straightforward. Tell him your reason and flee out of his dark presence. Easy peasy.' With a deep breath, she knocked on the door. After a whole minute, a loud come-in was heard. Closing her eyes she twisted the knob and the door creaked open. Emma walked inside with her eyes cast down to the floor. She didn't even take the first step forward when his voice resonated in the whole room.
Xander waited patiently for the class to end. As soon as he entered the class in which she was present. He was hit hard by her exquisite scent. It was difficult for him to pretend that there was nothing wrong when in fact there was everything wrong. She didn't once look up but whenever he would face the board. Her burning gaze could be felt on him. Blade was a restless caged beast inside him wanting to hold his mate but he had to wait. The torturous class ended soon and she was the first to flee the class. Was she ignoring him deliberately? Maybe. He was free for now but the girl still had one class left until she would enlighten him with her presence. After a while, he sme
Emma was frozen in her place. Every nerve in her body was hyper-aware of his proximity. His masculine scent and his dominating aura. All the blood drained out of her system and a chill ran down her spine when she felt a wet lick on her neck just where her vein was pulsating. Unknown gratifying sparks flew at that particular area, making her gasp. "Fuck!" He cussed and that was when she came back to her senses. Her small hands shot up and landed on his hard muscular chest as she gave him a push. Her eyes widened slightly when she felt tingles when she touched him. The beast of a man didn't even budge. "M-move!" She cried out while pushing at his chest but the man in front of her was an immovable rock. She felt his wolf pendant under her palm.
Emma was distracted the whole time at work. Her mind kept on going back to Mr. Colt or should she even call him that after all the things he did with her behind the closed doors of his office. She was sounding as if he had done something catastrophic but that man hasn't even touched her except with that lick of his tongue. Her body jolted while recalling those sensations that raked her body with that flick of his tongue. After finishing up she was wearing her large hoodie and cap and came out of the restroom getting startled by the sudden presence of Stacy at the door. "Are you alright?" Her voice held concern. Maybe she noticed that there was something wrong with Emma. "I'm fine," Emma answered softly and gave her a small smile.
