Chapter 327-Hello Professor!
Helanie:
"What do you mean—?" I was stuttering because, just a minute ago, I was thinking about trusting his brother—that backfired—and now he knew about my past?
I just realized I should keep my secrets to myself, and yet, here I was, exposed.
"Your boyfriend or someone got you pregnant and then didn’t want to take responsibility because you were probably an omega or without a wolf—or for some other stupid reason—so you came to the academy to become something and show him what he lost, right?" As he explained further what he knew, I began to relax.
"Oh! Yes!" I couldn’t think of anything else in the moment and decided to agree with whatever assumptions he made.
"Fascinating." He tilted his head as if he were listening to a story or had just solved a puzzle.
"It is, isn’t it?" I taunted, and he quickly straightened his posture.
"I didn’t mean to say that. It’s just that—you were so scared, and then suddenly, you’re not?" He was so observant. This little conversation we were having made me wonder if I even knew him at all.
"I was just shocked that you found out about it. It’s not every day someone talks to me about that," I lied through my teeth, and I didn’t feel bad about it. I needed to protect my secrets now.
"Hmm, what made you cry tonight? Was it your mother?" He looked away, his voice hinting at a little stress, but it could have been from anything.
"Yeah, I don’t wanna talk about it," I held my hands, scratching the flesh between my fingers.
