One Night With My Alpha Professor by Eve Above Story

Chapter 131

I shouldn't have been doing this.

It was st**d and irresponsible in so, se many ways. To come to the room that Edwin had specified... It could only make our situation worse.

But when he had asked me to come, I couldn't find it in me to say no. The very thought of being alone with him, for any reason, filled my entire body with a sense of hope and excitement. So I had gone. I wore a simple black dress that fell mid-thigh, a dark denim jacket on top to keep out the autumn chill. My hair was loose down my back, and as an afterthought, I had put on a thin layer of floral perfume. No one knew I was coming. I had told my friends that I would be turning in early tonight and that they could go out to the bar for our usual Friday night drinks without me. Then, once I was certain they were gone, I had slipped out of

my dorm.

And now here I was, making my way through the dimly lit campus, my heart pounding with each step:

The location that Edwin had given me was in the basement of an old building that was rarely used anymore aside from a few obscure classes. Mostly, it was used for storage. The back door was unlocked for the night workers, and snuck inside, glancing nervously over my shoulders every few feel.

Blissfully, there was no one around tonight. The campus was utterly quiet, students too busy at the bar in town to celebrate the first Friday of the semester to notice who was sneaking around campus. I made my way down the stairs to the basement, my eyes scanning the hall as I crept around like some kind of burglar. Cobwebs lined the corners of the ceilings, crates were pushed up against the walls. Edwin's choice in location had been... creepy, to say the least. So much so that I suppressed a shudder as I made my way through the halls in search of the room number he had specified room 004. Finally, I reached the door. My hands shook as I punched the code into a small panel on the handle: 5829. The lock clicked, and I pushed the door open, holding my breath. What I saw inside made me

gasp.

What had, I assumed, once been nothing more than a storage room, had been transformed. A soft blanket was spread on the floor, surrounded by flickering candles. A small table held an array of delicious- looking food-I spotted some of my favorites, like strawberries and chocolate. A projector was set up against one wall. Pillows were piled on top of the blanket for us to lounge on.

It was warm. And inviting.

And most of all, Edwin stood in the center of it all with a nervous smile on his face.

"Surprise," he said sofily.

"Edwin, what... how?" I stammered, still taking it all in. "This is... incredible."
