One Night With My Alpha Professor by Eve Above Story

Audrey

"...only dating her because of that stupid dare."

That was Max who I had just heard. My boyfriend. And tonight, on the night of Grayspring Academy's New Year's Eve dance, he was admitting to only dating me on a dare.

I stood outside the door, my fingers curling up into tight fists around my skirt-so hard that I thought my nails might rip straight through the lace.

"It's gone on for so long now. How could you put up with her all this time?"

There was scoff, this time in a familiar voice that I recognized all too well: Linda O'Malley, one of the most popular girls on campus and my biggest bully. Of course it was her who he was complaining to; she had been torturing me for months.

"It was hard. But it's almost over..."

Silent tears streamed down my cheeks, leaving streaks in my foundation and dark black blotches of mascara on my skin.

Although, everyone at this academy hated me. I was the only human amongst an entire academy full of werewolves, which made me an untrustworthy freak in their eyes. I had come to expect it, had even accepted it at this point.

But not from Max. Not from the sweet boy who supposedly fell head over heels for me three months ago. I had thought that he was... different from the others. That someone had finally seen me for me and didn't care that I was a human, or that I was a bookworm, or that I was a fashion addict.
