I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It novel Chapter 262

Ella’s POV

“What. The. Actual. Fuck,” Sarah said as she stared wide-eyed and Colton and me.

My entire body was trembling as I took a step away; I wasn’t sure what I was planning to do. Part of me wanted to run in the opposite direction and take Colton with me, but I knew that wouldn’t do any of us any good.

I had to face this like an adult.

How exactly does an adult face this though?

Brody looked horrified as well, but he already knew that Colton was my mate. I think he was more horrified that Sarah now knew about us as well.

Out of everybody at this school, it had to be Sarah who spotted us outside the school making out? What were we thinking?

“We were just saying goodbye to our mate…” Val sighed. “We aren’t going to see him until tomorrow.”

As much as I agreed with her, I had to face the fact that Sarah saw us.

The thought occurred to me that I could freeze time and try to sneak away. But that wasn’t an ability I was skilled in just yet.

“We could at least try,” Val said, I could hear the nervousness in her voice though. I tried to think of all my training with my mother; she said time freezing wasn’t something we should do often, only when we really need it.

But we really need it right now.

“How do I do it?” I asked.

“Just think about time freezing,” Val instructed.

It was a lot easier said than done though.

“Mom said it was easier to say the command out loud,” I reminded her. “But what if we do it and it doesn’t work. We will look stupid.”

“We look pretty stupid now.”

Val had a point.

“What the hell is going on?” Sarah asked, cutting through my thoughts. “Are you fucking the professor? You know, I had a feeling something was going on last year, but I didn’t actually think—”

As she continued to ramble, I thought about the hours of a clock stopping and her words trailing off as her entire body froze in place. Then I said the words, “Freeze.”

Soon, just as I imagined, she completely froze as did the sounds of a passing car nearby.

“Holy shit, it worked,” I breathed to my wolf.

“Yes!!” Val cooed excitedly. “Maybe we really are the strongest of our kind!”

That was still such a surreal thought to me.

“What did you just do?” Brody asked, shocked as he stared at his frozen mate.

“You froze her,” Colton said, also staring at Sarah with wide eyes.

My heart leaped in my chest.

“I froze time,” I said, shaking my head in disbelief. “Why did you guys not freeze?”

“I have witch's blood; stuff like that doesn’t work on me,” Brody answered, shaking his head in disbelief.

“I have half Volana blood,” Colton shrugged. “I guess it doesn’t work for me either.”

I sighed and leaned against Colton, feeling dizzy all of a sudden.

“Do you really think freezing time is going to do anything? She already saw you.”

“Can’t you say she was hallucinating?” I asked, giving Brody my best pleading eyes.

He looked at me with such disbelief that it made my stomach clench.

“And lie to my mate?” He asked, pressing his lips together. “I don’t think so, Ella. Why are you guys making out in front of the school?”

“We didn’t think anyone would be here,” I said, feeling my face growing incredibly hot. “It’s past curfew.”

“What exactly were you two out here for?” Colton asked; he didn’t sound panicked or even the least bit upset. Just curious and there was also a little humor in his voice.

Now it was Brody’s turn to redden; he was bright red.

I raised my brows at him.

“Oh yeah; isn’t she grounded?” I asked, folding my arms across my chest. “She can’t be out here right now.”

“We were just talking…” he murmured. “I needed to see her, so I snuck her out. I was just sneaking her back in.”

“Seems we are all in an awkward situation,” Colton said, giving Brody a wide smile.

“Unfreeze her,” Brody demanded.

“I didn’t just freeze her,” I said, staring at my feet. “I froze all of time.”

“So unfreeze all of time,” Brody said firmly; I could tell he was getting worked up over this. “Plus, you didn’t freeze the witches. That doesn’t work on witch blood or Volana blood.”

I wondered who else it didn’t work for.

I sighed.

“Please make sure she doesn’t run off and tell everyone,” I pleaded to him.

“I’ll try my best,” he said.

“And after, we should talk,” I said to him, giving him a sly smile. “You and Sarah work things out?”

He looked down at his feet, his cheeks tinting pink.

“Maybe,” he admitted. “Definitely an outcome I didn’t expect. But yeah, we can talk about it tomorrow.”

I nodded in agreement and took a deep breath.

I imagined everyone regaining their will to move again and the hours of a clock ticking forward before saying, “Unfreeze.”

“You were actually sleeping with the professor,” Sarah finished her sentence before I froze her. “This is seriously rich.”

“Sarah, please stop,” Brody said, facing her.

She looked at him, startled.
