Cain

Anna jumped in her chair, banging her knees on the bottom of her desk. "Oh god, ok. I'm on my way!" She stood and walked out of her office calmly, seeing that Dante must be out on rounds, she briskly walked, then ran to Terryn's office. What could have happened now. He'd barely been here an hour!

"I... I think so! I mean I can't believe it either but... Are you wearing coconut oil? Come on man! Have some self respect!" He said laughing. He could laugh again, not cause it was the appropriate thing to do... But because it felt right..... It... felt!

"I don't believe it! But shit, now I'm stuck in Ivan's hell!"

Anna just looked between her two best friends with confusion. "Huh?"

Cain just burst out laughing. Then he looked Anna over closer. "Damn, Annie. I forgot how bright green your eyes were. You really have grown into a beautiful woman. That oversized troll better know how lucky he is."

Anna was about to scold him and tell him just how wonderful Dante really was but then it hit her... He mentioned her eyes. "Wait.... You found here.... already... Here!!! That's amazing." She ran to him and hugged him tightly.

"Oh no... She's a student. Damn it... Please tell me it's a senior!"

"Sorry Annie, I'm pretty sure that Shawn said she was a Sophomore. Oh, and I think he thinks I was hitting on him. He's not THAT pretty!"

"She's the most beautiful creature I've ever seen, sorry Annie. Her name is Titi. Though I'm hoping that's a nickname. I'm not entirely sure what I'm suppose to do now though. She's like what, sixteen? I promise I won't cause problems, Annie."

"I noticed that. She's got a mouth on her. Seems like fun, I like feisty." He winked at Anna. Both boys and teased her and flirted with her when they were young.

"Nefertiti. That's a prefect name for her. Man. What now?" He just sat there, still in shock.

Anna just looked worried. She'd heard the rumors from her boys and the teacher's heard more than the students realized. That wasn't a good thing. Or at least it had the potential to be bad for her virginity, though Anna didn't hold our much hope for teenagers these days.

"What? What's wrong with a Micah? That skinny kid that bounces when he walks? I feel like I'm missing a vital piece of information."

Cain ground his teeth. He couldn't help it. He'd never been a jealous man and he had a libido... long ago... But he really didn't like the idea of some man whore trying to seduce his Lifemate. He took a deep breath and reminded himself that she wasn't a Carpathian, she had lived her life on her own thus far and that there may be things that he had to accept.

"So, you're telling me that she's.... involved?"

Anna looked even more concerned. "I don't know. She only just started here a couple months ago. I'm sure everything is fine and once she feels the pull, none of that will matter anyway." She really hoped that was the case anyway.

He let out an exasperated breath. "And I have to do all of this while not looking like a creaper and getting myself fired or arrested." He plopped back down into the chair.

Anna rested her hand on his shoulder, trying to comfort him. "I'm not going to fire you. You know that."

"If the other students see it and complain, or worse yet, tell their HUMAN parents... You won't have a choice."

She frowned... He had a valid point. Ivan had worked very hard to keep his affections for Sabine hidden from, at least, the human population of the school. Both student and staff.
