______________________________
I woke to my alarm its 5 am and time for my usual morning run. I have a bowl of oats then head out the door. I live in a cabin in the woods on the westside of Mystery Falls. Mystery Falls is a town surrounded by a 500-acre forest. My cabin is a good 100 acres into the woods. Being a werewolf I need to be where there were no humans. Mystery falls is a town with a lot of secrets as it is home to a lot of supernatural creatures. After a good two hours of running, I have a shower then get my notes to go to work. I'm a professor at mystery falls university where I teach myths & legends. I get on my motorbike then speed down the road. I arrive at the university thirty minutes before my first class to prepare.
The first students start arriving while I'm writing today's lecture on the board. Once I see everyone settles down and takes their seats I turn to start my lecture.
"Hello, class welcome to the first lesson of the new semester if you don't already know me my name is Professor Jones. And I will be teaching you about mythical creatures. Can anyone name one for me."
(Student 1)
"Vampires & werewolves"
(Student 2)
"witches"
"Can anyone else think of any more." looking around I see someone at the back with her hand in the hair. She is the new student I have yet to meet Nicolae Bartholy has told me about her. She wants to become an archaeologist. And she is staying in one of there cabins. Nicolae has told me she is family to them.
I look at her waiting for her to answer. She doesn't look up but still answers.
(Averie's pov)
"There are also fairies, elves, mediums, druids and gipsies some even say, mermaids."
When she finishes she looks up then as I look at her something comes over me I feel like all the air has been sucked right out of me. I feel my heart rate speeding up as if I'm breathless, I feel something trying to pull me towards her but I can't move. I have never felt anything like this before. I feel my body heating up from my core and spreading out through my body. There is something about her. She isnt like anyone I have ever met. Shes not human but what she is I'm not sure she is to far away to tell. I'm just standing there staring at her for what seems like hours. I pull my self around to get back to my class.
(Sebastian)
"Very good Miss."
(Averie)
"Storm."
(Sebastian's pov)
Yes, that's her Nicolae told me her surname but not her first. Listening to her voice makes the heat become more intense to the point that I need to get a drink to cool myself down.
What has come over me? Who is she? I must find out.
"Miss Storm I see you know your mythical creature. I hope you enjoy my class."
I tear my eyes away from her to try and carry on with the lecture.
"I will be starting off with vampires. Can anyone tell me what they know about vampires?"
(Student 1)
"They can't go out in the sunlight"
(Student 2)
"They kill humans and turn into bats."
"I think some of you have been watching too many horror movies and the wrong ones. Anyone else wants to give it a try".
I see to my right that Miss Storm has her hand up.
(Sebastian)
"Yes, Miss Storm."
(Averie)
"Vampires are immoral. They live on blood. They don't just live on human blood they can also survive on animal blood. They are also very strong and extremely fast. They hunt at night as to not be seen. They are also able to seduce there pray."
(Sebastian)
"Very good again Miss Storm."
(Sabastian)
"Miss Storm is very much right. Can anyone else give us anything else on vampires."
(Student 5)
"They don't sleep."
(Sebastian)
"Can anyone tell me why they live of blood and not normal food like humans."
(Sebastian)
"Anyone got anything"
I look around and see Miss Storm I can see from her expression she wants to say something.
(Sebastian)
"Miss storm do you have anything to add."
(Averie)
"Vampire need blood as they are part of the undead, they do not have the ability to produce there own blood so they feed off people or animals to fill there body with blood."
(Sebastian)
Miss Storm has become flustered which makes the already burning heat pulsing through my entire body become more intense. Who is this beautiful, amazing, smart woman whose presence has me shaken at the very core of my body? My heart is beating so fast it feels like it's going to burst out of my chest. I have to talk to her.
(Sebastian)
"Right again Miss Storm."
The bell goes.
(RING)
I tear my eyes away from Miss Storm once again.
(Sebastian)
"Well, that's the end of our first class of the new semester. Please, could you all call to the front and collect your books for this semester and please read the first 5 pages. I will be asking questions at our next class."
I hand out the books as everyone lines up to receive there work, I look up and notice Miss Storm talking with Sarah Osborne waiting to get in line. I notice she is last in the line which pleases me as this gives me the chance to talk and get to know her.
"She is here at last", I overhear Miss Osborne saying "I'll see you at the cafeteria at lunch then she leaves the class." It's just me and miss storm.
I look up from my desk and look straight into two beautiful blue eyes, my heart stops beating before speeding up and starts banging against my rib cage. I can sense she likes me, she is a werewolf like me. But how can that be? Female werewolves don't exist. The transformation to become a werewolf is so horrific and torturous that it is said females die as their bodies are too delicate to handle the transformation. But I can feel it she is like me.
I have so many things going through my mind, so many questions but I don't want to scare her. She looks so nervous and scared.
I stand up to give her the work and to introduce my self properly.
"Hello I'm Sebastian jones" I reach out my hand and she looks up and takes my hand in hers. There it is again. The heat, the weakness, the breathless feeling and the heart racing. I look into her eyes, they are a beautiful Celeste blue colour. I can see I am having the same effect on her as she is to me. I just stand there with her hand in mine looking at her.
She has beautiful long blonde hair that flows down her back to her waist. My eyes flow down from her face all the way down to her legs then back to her eyes. Her tongue slides across her lip then she bites on her bottom hip. Just that little movement sends my body into overdrive. I want to bring her to me and I want to press my lips against hers. I want to be the one biting on that bottom lip. I see her cheeks flush and I know she feels something too. She looks from my face down past my chest she keeps looking down then up again she gazes into my eyes again. Speak you fool I tell myself.
(Sebastian)
I still have her hand in mine as I continue where I started. " welcome to Mystery Falls University my name is Sebastian Jones and you are?"
(Averie)
"Averie storm. It a pleasure to meet you, Professor Jones."
(Sebastian)
"The pleasure is all mine Averie."
I jump on hearing the bell. Miss Storm also gets a fright then she quickly apologizes, removes her hand from mine then picks up the workbook and explains she is going to be late for her next class.
(Sebastian)
"I'm sorry if I have made you late."
She gave me one last glance before she leaves my class. What was that I have never felt anything like that before. I have so many feelings, questions and emotions going through my head right now. I need a coffee. That was my only class for today but I have some papers to prepare for my up and coming classes.
