“I promise...” I said in return. | She didn’t say anything more, she stepped out of the closet and her entire | demeanor changed. She gasped and stared upward; her breath caught in her throat. I wondered what she was looking at, but I realized it as soon as stepped into the hallway and my eyes widened.
“I thought you were meeting me in the lounge,” I said, narrowing my eyes at Brody.

I still wasn’t sure what had happened myself, but I had a nasty feeling in the pit of my stomach, and I wasn’t sure what to think about it. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to think about it.
At some point during the day, I was reminded that I had to tutor some students in the library later. I couldn’t bail on them and let them down, so I sent Rachel a text explaining that 1’d have to raincheck our plans for discussing my election speech.
For most of the day, until my last class, I only saw Enzo once and it was only during passing. Our eyes met from across the hallway; he was talking to a couple of different students, and it was obvious he was on his way to the arena because his shirt was already off and he was dripping in 4

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe very sight of him made my heart flutter and my knees go weak.
He was so incredibly good-looking, and he was all mine.
He turned and our eyes met; I saw the smile in his eyes, but his face remained natural. I was suddenly super embarrassed being caught checking him out and I quickly scurried down the hallway to my next class. But I felt his eyes on the back of my head as I went.
My last class was with Shifting and Combat and I was super nervous about how this was going to go. Sarah appeared to be back to her normal self when I saw her in the arena. She was still pale and thinner than usual, but she had no blood on her face, and it seemed like she put makeup on and brushed her hair into a high ponytail to match the look of her other friends.

Becca waved me over to where she stood with her combat and shifting ~ partner, Monica. I stood beside them as the arena began to fill with eager students. Word had gotten around fast that Enzo was our professor again and Xander was no more.
It was clear that nobody liked Xander, they just tolerated him.
Enzo stood in front of the class, looking around at everyone and I knew from deep in my soul that he was trying hard not to look at me.
“I’m not entirely sure where Professor Xander had left off with your lessons, but I found his curriculum so I'm going to start at the very beginning of it as a review session. Then, we will get into more advanced areas.” Everyone agreed as Enzo started from the beginning and worked his way through Xander’s curriculum. Because )
I didn’t have a partner, I was forced to be Enzo’s partner. Which wouldn’t have been a bad thing if I didn’t crave him so much. It was hard being this close to him and not kissing him or being passionate toward him.
