One Night With My Alpha Professor by Eve Above Story

Chapter 156 Audrey

For the remainder of my autumn break. Edwin continued to train me to control my senses,

We spent hours each day in his apartment, working on honing my abilities. It started in the same manner he had shown me before, hovering his hands across various locations on my body

But I quickly became too advanced for that. Sometimes, whether through the bond or something else that neither of us could fully understand, I could even sense where he would put his hand before he even put it there.

After that, we had begun playing hide-and-seek. He would hide, and I would wear a blindfold, groping around the apartment until I found him. It resulted in a lot of laughter at first, and the first few times even devolved into...

I tried not to blush as I thought about that one time I had found him hiding in the closet. How he had growled and pulled me into the closet with him, blindfold still covering my eyes, and had me amongst the coats.

"Focus, Audrey," Edwin's voice came from across the room. "Tell me where it is.""

Nodding, I took a deep breath to recenter myself.

Once hide-and-seek had grown too easy and I had begun finding him within a matter of seconds, he'd begun hiding various objects around the apartment. He'd give me a chance to smell and feel it, and then he would go and hide it somewhere.

sat cross-legged in the middle of the living room, inhaling deeply.

The object tonight had been a paperweight. I could still feel the smooth glass in my palm. I couldn't describe the smell because it didn't really have much of one, but that was what made it a challenge Focus..

I inhaled, and imagined that I was following a little white thread that led from myself to that paperweight. It wound around the furniture, tangled between the legs of the coffee table. And then it went up, up.. "It's on the bookshelf," I said confidently. "Third shelf from the top, right hand side."

I heard Edwin let out a low whistle. "Impressive."

Sighing with relief, I pulled off my blindfold, blinking as my eyes adjusted to the light. Indeed, there was a little hall of glass glinting on the shelf. Edwin was leaning in the doorway, arms folded, shaking his head.

"Your senses are developing at an incredible rate, Audrey. Maybe you really are the Silver Star."

I blushed at the thought and my fingers instinctively touched the spot where my silver streak was growing in. The roots felf c*o*rse under my fingertips, a stark contrast to the dyed portion. "I doubt it," I said, shaking my head. T'm just me."

Edwin crossed the room and dropped to a crouch in front of me, his hand joining mine in my hair. The warmth of his touch made me instinctively lean closer, my wolf purring with satisfaction.

"Don't doubt yourself," he said softly, although his eyes were intense. "You're more extraordinary than you realize." His fingers traced the line where my natural color met the dye. "I'd like to see it, you know. The silver, in its entirety. You should flaunt it, not hide it."
