My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Chapter 0502 Almost immediately after, the door opened again and a skinny, nerdy- looking guy walked into the room. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Is this the student committee room?” He asked peering around.

Before I could answer, Becca spoke first.

“Hey, Luis!” She said cheerfully. He smiled pleasantly at her. “I saved you a seat next to me,” she added, waving him over.

He quickly walked further into the room and toward her. I handed him a signup sheet and a key as he walked by and murmured, “Thanks.” I got a key for Matt as well and slid it across the table to him and another for Skylar. § “Everybody in the committee gets a key to this room,” I explained.

“Even if we don’t have any scheduled meetings, you are all welcome to come here to get work done. I am planning on having a meeting at least once a week. But I'll keep you updated via text messages, so make sure my number is in your phone.” I felt like I was truly in charge; the feeling was surreal. I spent my entire life watching my father be in charge, so I suppose it was like second nature to me.

The door opened again, and I turned to see Rachel running into the room. I was honestly surprised to see her.

“Hey,” I said to her, trying to act casual.

“Sorry, I'm late,” she said, rushing past me and taking a seat at the table. “I had some stuff to do beforehand.” “Seems you always have stuff to do lately,” I said; not trying to sound mean, but I was a bit annoyed and a little worried for her.

She glanced at me, pressing her lips firmly together.

“Pm busy,” she said, her voice much dryer than it ever has been.

Her eyes were dark; they weren't like her normal bright ocean blue.

Looking into them made me feel uneasy. i “Sorry,” I said, not wanting to get into an argument. I grabbed a key from the baggie and handed it to her. “Everyone gets a key to this room,” I explained.

Without saying anything, she took the key and shoved it into the pocket.

When she did so, I noticed there was a light red stain on her pants, making me narrow my eyes at her. She smelled off; I couldn’t explain it. Just different. But I didn’t say anything to her about it out loud; I just shook my head and clanked at the clock.

It was 10 past 8, which meant I needed to start this meeting because Skylar had class at 9.

“ guess this is everybody,” I said, shrugging and glancing at Brody

who looked disappointed.

I sat down and opened my notebook, starting from the very first plan idea Becca and I had. A fall formal. We never had a back-to-school party and we've already been back for a little over a month, so we decided on a fall formal instead.

“So, I'll need volunteers to prepare that. We'll need a venue, preferably one with a ballroom, and some to help with decorating and catering,” I explained. “We have plenty of funding, so money isn’tan issue, “I added.

Before anyone could say anything, the door of the room slowly .

opened, turning everybody’s attention in that direction.

I heard Kayla gasping loudly and the color of Becca's face drained. I didn’t have to look to know who it was, but I did anyway.

“Hey...” Sarah said in a low and awkward tone. “Sorry, I'm late...”
