The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin Chapter 39. A Chat

SKYLA.

Azura’s words keep replaying in my mind as

I trudge toward Aleric’s office.

My footsteps echo off the tiles.


With the rumours going around, I don’t think him choosing his office for detention is wise, and I don’t think I want those

rumours to get to Dad.

Me and the professor I’m rumoured to be having an affair with alone in his office.

Hmm, office sex sounds hot, and I wouldn’t mind him showing me his dominant side by bending me over that desk of his…

I smirk. Regardless of if that sounds appealing or not, I don’t plan to get down and dirty with him. Not after that talk with Azura. That really has made me see reason.

The halls are empty as everyone is either in

training, outdoors, or just chilling since

school’s out. They’re lucky to be doing

whatever shit they want for the rest of the

evening.

Then there’s poor me, heading to detention, without even a morsel of food to satiate the pang of hunger that fills my stomach. How

sad.

Ok I’m not that hungry and we’re usually

allowed to take food to detention, if it’s during lunch or after school, but I can’t

bother.

It’s kinda weird knowing Kat’s gone… Azura’s gone, Song’s gone… There was a

time the four of us would walk down these

halls together. Now?

It’s just me.

Who would have thought I’d be the last one

left here…

I break into a run, doing a cartwheel in the middle of the empty corridor before I turn the corner and come to an abrupt stop when

I see Rivers walking down the hall towards

“Ah, Miss Rossi.” He says, his piercing eyes boring into me.

“Mr Rivers.” I reply emotionlessly, crossing

my arms.

He looks around the empty halls, then back at me. “Why are you still here? Shouldn’t you be heading for training?”

“I have detention first.” I say.

His brows furrow. “Detention already, Miss Rossi, I am beginning to feel rather concerned with how this year has started. If Professor Arden didn’t stop me from talking to your father regarding the violence

displayed against a teacher, I would
