Ella’s POV
What. The. Actual. Fuck,” Sarah said as she stared wide–eyed and Colton and me.
My entire body was trembling as I took a step away; I wasn’t sure what I was planning to do. Part of me wanted to run in the opposite direction and take Colton with me, but I knew that wouldn’t do any of us any good.
I had to face this like an adult.
How exactly does an adult face this though?
Brody looked horrified as well, but he already knew that Colton was my mate. I think he was more horrified that Sarah now knew about us as
well.
Out of everybody at this school, it had to be Sarah who spotted us outside the school making out? What were we thinking?
“We were just saying goodbye to our mate…” Val sighed. “We aren’t going to see him until tomorrow.”
As much as I agreed with her, I had to face the fact that Sarah saw us. The thought occurred to me that I could freeze time and try to sneak away. But that wasn’t an ability I was skilled in just yet.
“We could at least try,” Val said, I could hear the nervousness in her voice though. I tried to think of all my training with my mother; she said time. freezing wasn’t something we should do often, only when we really need it.
But we really need it right now.
“How do I do it?” I asked. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Just think about time freezing,” Val instructed.
It was a lot easier said than done though.
“Mom said it was easier to say the command out loud,” I reminded her. “But what if we do it and it doesn’t work. We will look stupid.”
“We look pretty stupid now.”
Val had a point.
“What the hell is going on?” Sarah asked, cutting through my thoughts. “Are you fucking the professor? You know, I had a feeling something was
15.14

ning on last year, but I didn’t actually think-”
As she continued to ramble, I thought about the hours of a clock Hopping and her words trailing off as her entire body froze in place. Then I said the words, “Freeze.”
Soon, just as I imagined, she completely froze as did the sounds of a passing car nearby.
“Holy shit, it worked,” I breathed to my wolf.
“Yes!!” Val cooed excitedly. “Maybe we really are the strongest of our kind!”
That was still such a surreal thought to me.
“What did you just do?” Brody asked, shocked as he stared at his frozen
mate.
“You froze her,” Colton said, also staring at Sarah with wide eyes.
My heart leaped in my chest.
“I froze time,” I said, shaking my head in disbelief. “Why did you guys not freeze?”
“I have witch’s blood; stuff like that doesn’t work on me,” Brody answered, shaking his head in disbelief.
“I have half Volana blood,” Colton shrugged. “I guess it doesn’t work for me either.”
I sighed and leaned against Colton, feeling dizzy all of a sudden.
“Do you really think freezing time is going to do anything? She already saw you.”
“Can’t you say she was hallucinating?” I asked, giving Brody my best pleading eyes.
He looked at me with such disbelief that it made my stomach clench. “And lie to my mate?” He asked, pressing his lips together. “I don’t think
Ella. Why are you guys making out in front of the school?”
So,
“We didn’t think anyone would be here,” I said, feeling my face growing incredibly hot. “It’s past curfew.”
“What exactly were you two out here for?” Colton asked; he didn’t sound. panicked or even the least bit upset. Just curious and there was also a little humor in his voice.
Now it was Brody’s turn to redden; he was bright red.

My Protestyr And He Laked It
Fraised my brows at him.
Oh yeah; isn’t she grounded?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest. “She can’t be out here right now.”
We were just talking..” he murmured. “I needed to see her, so I snuck her out. I was just sneaking her back in.”
“Seems we are all in an awkward situation,” Colton said, giving Brody a wide smile.
“Unfreeze her,” Brody demanded.
“I didn’t just freeze her,” I said, staring at my feet. “I froze all of time.” “So unfreeze all of time,” Brody said firmly; I could tell he was getting worked up over this. “Plus, you didn’t freeze the witches. That doesn’t work on witch blood or Volana blood.”
I wondered who else it didn’t work for.
I sighed.
“Please make sure she doesn’t run off and tell everyone,” I pleaded to
him.
“I’ll try my best,” he said.
“And after, we should talk,” I said to him, giving him a sly smile. “You and Sarah work things out?”
He looked down at his feet, his cheeks tinting pink.
“Maybe,” he admitted. “Definitely an outcome I didn’t expect. But yeah, we can talk about it tomorrow.”
I nodded in agreement and took a deep breath.
I imagined everyone regaining their will to move again and the hours of a clock ticking forward before saying, “Unfreeze.”
“You were actually sleeping with the professor,” Sarah finished her sentence before I froze her. “This is seriously rich.”
“Sarah, please stop.” Brody said, facing her.
She looked at him, startled.
“Did you know about this?” She asked him and for a moment, I saw a
flash of hurt through her eyes.
He sighed and nodded.
“Ella is one of my best friends, of course I knew.”
ty Professor And He Liked It
That’s she’s fucking the professor?” Sarah scoffed, folding her arms cross her chest.
“It’s more than that,” I blurted before Brody could dig himself into a deeper hole. She flashed me a devilish look.
“Oh, is it?” She said, raising her right brow. “Do tell. I’d love to hear your sex story.
“We are mates,” I said quickly.
Her mouth dropped open as she stared at me; then she looked up at Colton who ran his hand behind his neck awkwardly and nodded in agreement.
“Mates?” She asked, now flashing between the two of us. “Like goddess given mates?”
“Yes,” we both said at the same time.
Colton wrapped an arm around me, and I stepped into his warm and soothing embrace, snuggling against him.
“Holy shit,” she breathed.
“If anyone knew about this, we could both get into huge trouble,” I said, shaking my head. “Something like this needed to be reported from the beginning and it wasn’t. Either Colton or I would have needed to be transferred to a new school and neither of us wanted that.”
“What are you going to do when you get married?” Sarah asked, raising her brows
She sounded genuinely curious.
“By then I’ll be a graduate,” I explained. “It won’t matter anymore.”
“You are going to wait that long to marry?” She asked.
I saw Brody tensing from beside her; it was at that moment Brody realized his mate wanted to marry sooner rather than later. I tried to stifle a laugh by chewing the inside of my cheek.
“We agreed to not marry until after I’m able to graduate. I want to finish my education before I become a Luna,” I explained.
“Look, you girls really need to get inside before your dorm advisor finds. out you aren’t there; if she hadn’t already,” Colton interrupted our conversation.
Sarah groaned miserably.
“Please, Eilleen Carter is the least threatening person at this school. She’s

bear for crying out loud,” she muttered.
Sears can be tough,” I said, thinking about Rachel who was the toughest bear I knew.
Sarah rolled her eyes.
“Okay look; I’m not wanting to get in trouble for being out here because I’m grounded. So, let’s just pretend we didn’t see one another.”
I raised my brows in surprise.
“Really?” I asked hopefulness in my tone.
Brody was grinning from beside her as she glanced at him; at that point, I saw her face redden as they made eye contact.
“Yeah,” she muttered, looking back at me. “I didn’t see you and you didn’t see me. Okay?”
This was unusual; last year, she would have jumped at the opportunity to report me. But now that she knew she was mated to Brody, who happened to be one of my best friends, she seemed less inclined to get. me in trouble.
“She just doesn’t want to get in trouble herself,” Val muttered. “Don’t let her selfishness blind you.”
“You’re right,” I agreed. “I shouldn’t be so naive. Sarah will never change her ways. Not even for her mate.”
I had to make sure Brody knew that. But not right now; it had to wait until later. Right now, I needed to get to my dorm.
I turned back to Colton and kissed him gently on the lips.
“I love you,” I said to him.
“And I you,” he said in return..
“Wow,” Sarah said, creasing her brows together. “I’ll never get used to that sight.”
She turned to Brody, her face reddening.
“So… we will talk later?” She asked, her voice dropping to almost a
whisper.
His grin widened and he nodded.
“You bet.” he said, his eyes lighting up.
It made me smile oddly enough.
“Okay…” she said, running her fingers through her hair.

turned away and looked at me.
Are you coming?” She huffed.
“You bet,” I teased.
I waved goodbye to the boys and ran inside the girl’s dormitory while Brody went through the other door leading to the boy’s dormitory and Colton went across campus to the faculty housing.
The dorm was extremely quiet; if we weren’t quiet enough, somebody would be able to hear us. We had to pass by Eileen’s door on our way to the stairway that led to our dorms. Sarah’s dorm was across from mine. That’s where the larger dorms were and for a while, Sarah didn’t have a roommate even though she had 3 bedrooms.
But now Kayla was her roommate.
There was a faint light under Eileen’s door, so I knew she was still awake. I wonder if she had done her walkthrough yet to make sure everyone was accounted for.
I swallowed the lump in my throat as we snuck past the door and up the
stairs.
Sarah said nothing as she went into her dorm, quietly shutting the door behind her.
I did the same..
Alex was passed out on the couch with his phone on his chest. I rolled my eyes and stifled a groan; the last thing I needed right now was to wake
1. up.
I went straight into my room, excited to get some well–deserved sleep. I was so preoccupied with getting back to my dorm that I hardly noticed the Guardian’s orb that hovered over the campus. I saw a faint lining of a shield being placed when I arrived on campus, but I didn’t really take a moment to look at it.
I wondered if others could see it as well. I did, however, feel the calming sensation of the shield in place. I felt its powers and it was soothing to know we were protected. I hoped it made a difference though.
I pushed my door open and shut it behind me. Turning on my light, I turned toward my bed and froze in my place, gasping when I saw whot was standing in my room with my jewelry box opened in front of her.
