The night passed quickly and as promised, Nyx begged Nate to let her go. Her thighs shook until the next morning and the way her pussy kept throbbing, she secretly wanted more of him.
However, she didn't want to seem too desperate.
Now, she was strewn on the bed, staring at the sunlight streaming through the windows. In an hour, they had to go to school, but then she was worried about how he was going to deal with all the attention he would get.
That morning, she had already received a picture of Nate's face on the school's hall of fame. The pictures of him gifting her the necklace were now on a live billboard at school.
Her phone was being bombarded as her friends really wanted to know who Nate was.
Twenty minutes later, she walked out of the bedroom, her eyes thinning, seeing him shirtless in the living area.
"Are you trying to seduce me?" She wiggled her brows as she swayed her butt, going toward him.
He turned to her, pulling a shirt over his bandaged chest and she sucked in a cold breath. She almost stopped him from dressing up.
"Do you want me to bend you over the couch, right here? Are you not sore from last night?"
His taunting words sent a chill down her spine and even though she wanted him that way, she was still in pain. Also, they needed to head to school immediately.
But then her lips curled as she caught his collar, and whispered, "As soon as we are home, I am going to sit on that dick and make you cum."
Nate visibly swallowed, his eyes dimming with desire. It took everything in him not to snap her dress off her body especially with her cleavage peaking through her open dress.
As she left him, he admired the way her ass wiggled but then she wiggled her fingers at him.
"Let's go, Nate. The student council has scheduled a meeting with you."
"Why?" He followed after her, straight to her car.
"Do you even have to ask?" She chuckled. "Have you checked your phone since last night? You are the rave of the moment right now."
"And Rick?" She stopped for a moment, her eyes flashing with pure satisfaction. "He has become a laughing stock. Overnight."
Nate couldn't help the smile that crossed his face as he scrolled through every single post on the school's forum. While Rick was being mocked for being a weakling, Chris and Gerald had become the school's clowns.
However, Nyx snapped her fingers in his face, "Don't get too complacent."
"Rick is going to fight back, ten times harder. The last time, you were covered in blood. This time, he could actually kill you."
Nate knew her words weren't a bluff, as he saw the worry and wariness that crossed her eyes. Deep down, he knew she was scared even though she had brazenly opposed Rick.
"As long as I am here…" He held her hand, his eyes telling his vow. "I will keep you safe."
"Keep yourself safe, first!" She snickered, hiding her worry. "Rick wouldn't target me so easily."
That was a lie. That bastard had his eyes on her already but then, no one knew when he was going to strike.
The drive to school was silent, tension curled up Nyx's spine and she wondered why Nate was being so silent and calm. He should be happy about the rave, he was on the lips of everyone and they all wanted to know how he got the money to splurge on a necklace.
She wanted to know too, but decided to keep it cool for some time.
As the car drove into the parking lot, Nate asked, "What time is the meeting?"
"Two hours from now," Nyx said. "I will be waiting for you."
Nate glanced at his watch, noticing he was late for his first class of the day, but he would sure be right on time for the meeting. He bade Nyx goodbye before walking toward his car.
The professor stood before everyone, her hands in the air, casually explaining the spread-out formula on the large screen.
However, the minute the students noticed Nate, their attention shifted, and whispers started to go around.
"What's going on?" The professor asked. Her eyes glanced across the room before landing on Nate who had just taken his seat.
"Is there a reason why you have chosen to attend my class so late and cause a ruckus?"
Nate pursed his lips, assessing the woman before him. He knew her, but he had never actually taken a good look at her. All he ever wanted to do then was get to class, write his exams, and leave.
"Aren't you listening?" She snapped her fingers, her brows creasing with displeasure.
"I am sorry, Professor Claire," Nate said, without further explanation. His voice was steady, his eyes straight and she slowly pulled back.
And the next second, the system's voice resounded in his head.
[A new mission has arrived, Nate Williams. Flirt with Professor Claire and get a new system gift. You have an hour.]
Nate swallowed, as his eyes dimmed. He immediately started to follow every one of her moves, the way she spoke, and moved. She moved with elegance and pride but not in an obnoxious way.
Thirty minutes later, the class was done and he just had thirty minutes left to complete the mission. As she stepped out of the class, he followed her out, going straight to her office.
"Is there a reason why you are following me around?" She glanced at him for a moment, before stopping at her door.
"Yes." Nate didn't hesitate, his eyes held her gaze, a little longer than a student would. "I just wanted to say you teach so well. And you are beautiful too."
The gasp that escaped her lips was short and rasped. And the next second, she pursed her lips, eyes thinning.
"I think that's inappropriate."
"No," He shook his head. "It's just a compliment, you don't have to think too much about it. And by the way, I would like to ask a few questions regarding today's teachings."
The struggle beneath her suspicious gaze didn't faze Nate at all. He maintained the smile on his face and it slowly put her at ease.
She smiled at him, "You look good as well. Come in."
The next second, she pushed her door open, ushering him into the large office. At this moment, he decided he was going to pull up the ultimate card he had. The charm buff he had received last night would be used appropriately now.
As she stood beside her desk, she stared at him, "So, what would you like to ask?"
"Nothing much…" He shrugged, even though he knew nothing of what had been taught in class.
He stalked toward her, his fingers grazing her arm slightly while he held her gaze. There was a spark, one that caused Professor Claire to jerk.
There was a slight furrow in her brows with her eyes darting around but then, she was at ease the next second.
Her eyes twinkled as her cheeks turned rosy with a deep red hue, going down to her neck. The charm buff had worked, however, he didn't know how long it would last.
"Miss Claire…" He became even more brazen now as he took her hand in his, caressing her soft skin.
"What do you say?" He asked. "I would like to go out with you tonight."
Claire took a deep breath, and her lips curled slightly. She liked how gentle he was, and the confident look on his face, made him even more attractive.
He was handsome too.
"Sure." She nodded, taking her card off her table and placing it in his pocket. "Call me."
They exchanged flirty glances and Nate was even more brazen when he leaned in, planting a kiss on her cheek.
The next second, he walked away while she purred in delight. As the door closed behind him, the system's voice resounded in his head.
[Congratulations, Nate Williams, you have been rewarded with the Thought Scan ability. It can only be used once a day.]

Nate's mind was blown away and he was eager to use the new ability he had however as he walked down the hallway, Nyx appeared before him, her eyes darting to look behind him.
"Why are you here?" He frowned. "It's not time for the meeting yet, is it?"
"No, it's not." She shrugged. "I saw you going into Professor Claire's office and I decided to wait."
"Oh, you know her?" He raised a brow.
"Of course." She chuckled. "She is my aunt."
