Tamara POV
Brad didn’t say much, but from the look in his eyes, I knew that he had a plan. I hoped it wasn’t mischievous. I dreaded his plans often. Since I was too exhausted mentally and emotionally, I followed him as he led me towards Tulip’s office.
“Where the hell do you think you’re going?” I said, my mind swirling with frustration as I stopped in tracks.
“You know very well,” he replied, grabbed my wrist, and pulled me. “And stop sulking You look like a moron?”
“You’re a moron!” I snapped.
“Oh, please!” he waggled his eyebrows. “Between the two of us, I’m the smarter one.”
“Can I hit you?” I hissed.
He just dragged me all the way to the admin building.
“It will look so fucking crazy and desperate,” I said, feeling this tight knot of anger and confusion building inside me. “And what if-” I swallowed. “-th–they are doing something with consent?” Goddess, the words I spat felt like they would burn my tongue. I so wanted to get over this nonsense. Yes. Once this was over, I was going to reject Matt. I just couldn’t handle this emotional turmoil anymore.
“Shut up!” Brad snapped back at me. “From all that you just narrated to me, it seems like Tulip is harassing him. So even if you’re not with me, I’ll fucking go and save Matt. I know he is your mate, and that is all the more of a reason for me to save him.”
“I’m going to reject him soon,” I muttered under my breath.
“The hell you will!” Brad growled.
We reached Tulip’s office cubicle only to see that she wasn’t there. My stomach twisted. Brad enquired about her, but he didn’t have to. He sniffed her smell and followed it. In the next ten minutes, we found ourselves standing in front of a room, which was at the end of the third floor’s corridor. He leaned over to me and whispered.
“What?” I whisper–shouted.
“Just go, okay?” he whisper–growled.
I clenched my fists. “No violence! Don’t do anything rash.”
“There won’t be.” Saying that, he knocked on her door.
I turned and quickly walked away, muttering, “You’ve got to be kidding me!”
Tulip POV
It would have been stupid of me to take advantage of him in my cubicle, so I asked one of my colleagues to spare a room for me to talk to a student who was about to fail his assignment. He gave me the space easily.
“I missed you so badly,” I said when Matt came over. Leaning back in the chair, I couldn’t help remembering his beautiful body. Oh, how I missed him? When I was with him after engagement, I used to go to Harrison all the time. He hadn’t rejected me, and pined for me. Well, it was good for me because Matt refused to have sex with me, always saying that he would rather wait for it after our marriage. I satiated my needs with him, and Harrison- he gave me the best sex of my life.
I suspected that he waited for Tamara to be his mate, and I did everything to seduce him, but the bastard was just too fucking adamant.
Now I had the perfect opportunity for my revenge against that bitch. I would force him to fuck me or else I’d fail him. I would make sure that Tamara suffered the most.
It was so difficult to be a professor of herbology in this college, but I managed by sleeping my way here. But I also had a good academic record. That helped.
“What do you want, Tulip?” Matt shouted the moment he entered the office.
“Close the door behind you,” I said with a smirk. “Lock it.”
“I won’t lock it!” he growled. “As for the assignment, I’ll submit it by night. If there’s nothing else, I’d like to leave. And don’t you fucking come over to my class again and threaten me like that.”
I was expecting that outburst from him. So I leaned forward, hooked my finger and gestured to him to come to me. “Let’s deal quietly with this, Matt,” I said in a sweet voice. “I know that you’re angry, but anger won’t lead you anywhere. If you dare to cross me, you will have to bear the repercussions. I’ll make sure that you are expelled from the college. And then-” i leaned back and grinned. “No Tamara for you. So you either do what I ask you to, or get out. What do you choose?”
“I won’t be intimidated by you!” he growled again.
I sighed and pulled out my phone. “I’m filing a report against you, which I’ve already typed. It says that you have failed to

submit the report, threatened me with dire consequences and is least bothered about the classes. You are a danger to the students, and the main reason being. I lifted my eyes to him “Tamara”
“You”
I chuckled, shaking my head. “Now come here, like a cute little bear. I just want to teach you herbology Nothing else.” I pointed at the chair opposite to me. “Sit down and relax. It’s not like I’m raping you.” Veles. However, I’ll allow you to do that to me, if you behave like a good little fuck boy for me.”
His chest rose and fell as his bear tried to force out of him in defiance.
I laughed. “Would you risk Tam’s future?”
Matt clenched his jaw. He narrowed his eyes and walked to the chair where he sat with vengeance Good I got up, circled the desk and came to stand in front of him. “Take off your shirt.”
“Why?” he asked, bewildered.
“Because I will teach you where various herbs act on each part of your body.”
“You’re insane!”
“Take it off, now!” I insisted. “For Tamara.” Veles, how I wished that bitch to be here and see me with Matt like this. She was a little child in front of me. A fly I would throw out of my life soon enough. She was going to reject Matt, and I would ensure
that.
Matt swallowed and took off his shirt. I let out a deep sigh as I clenched my thighs, sure he had smelled my arousal. 1 brushed my fingers over his shoulder, his collarbone and his neck. He flinched under my touch.
“Don’t touch me!” he slapped my hand away.
I walked behind him. “Let’s talk about Ashroot. If used in a compress, it can-” I took my fingers to touch his columnar neck. *-cause temporary stiffness and extreme fatigue in humans, werewolves and bears.” He leaned away from me, but I leaned with him. When my lips hovered over his ear, I said, “Do you know what it looks like?” His scent was doing crazy things to me. I parted my lips to lick his skin, when all of a sudden there was a knock on the door. My eyes widened in fear. Before I could step away from Matt, the door opened and Bradley walked in.
