Chapter 195

Tessa’s POV

Graduation has been put on hold.

My blog has been suspended.

It felt like the entire world had crumbled down around me. I sat in the passenger seat of Joseph’s car, staring out the window as the school got smaller in the distance. I couldn’t believe that just happened. I have been completely frozen since sitting in Dean Miller’s office.

Joseph helped me leave the room without falling over and Jeremy stayed behind to speak with Dean Miller in private.

Joseph kept stealing glances in my direction as we drove through the city and toward the suburban area.

“I’m not going to let this affect you,” Joseph finally said as he reached over and grabbed a hold of my hand.

I looked over at him through my tear-filled eyes.

“It’s already affecting me, Joseph,” I said in nothing more than a whisper. “I might not graduate. My blog has been suspended….”

I choked on a sob as I looked back out the window. I really didn’t want to cry in his car again, but tears soon escaped my eyes and rushed down my cheeks before I could stop them.

“I’m going to fix this,” he assured me.

“How?”

“Prove to Dean Miller that your writing is your own,” Joseph said, squeezing my hand gently. “Once we prove to him that I didn’t write any of your posts, he will unsuspend your blog.”

“And how exactly are you going to prove that?” I asked, peering over at him. “It’s not like there’s camera or picture evidence of me writing these posts.”

“Just leave it to me,” Joseph said calmly. “Do you trust me?”

His question took me by surprise, but I didn’t hesitate to answer him.

“Yes,” I said softly. “I trust you more than anything.”

“Then trust that I will handle this, and you have nothing to worry about,” he breathed.

I couldn’t help the smile on my lips as I nodded. I realized at that moment that I really was safe with Joseph.

I’m not sure what really happened between Joseph and my father. What my father initially said I no longer believed, and Joseph didn’t fully remember what happened between the two of them, so he couldn’t tell me what he knew. I knew my father didn’t trust Joseph because it was vampires that had killed my mother, but I trusted Joseph.

I knew that Joseph would never hurt me on purpose and that he always had a plan. For the first time all day, I felt like I could truly relax.

He kept his hold on my hand as we pulled into his villa, and he parked the car.

“Did you get around to grading my exam?” I found myself asking as we slid out of the car and started walking toward the front door.

“Yes, but I can’t tell you what your grade is,” he said with a grin. “That wouldn’t be fair to the other students.”

I playfully pouted at him.

“What good is having a professor boyfriend if I don’t get any good benefits,” I joked.

He chuckled and wrapped an arm around my waist, pulling me close to his body.

“Oh, there are benefits,” he said in a low and seductive tone.

“Care to elaborate?”

He smiled and lifted me into his arms, cradling me bridal style. I threw my head back and laughed as he pushed his way into the house. He kissed along the nape of my neck as he took me into the living room and sat me on the couch.

His lips found mine and he didn’t break the kiss as he wiggled himself on top of me, pressing me further onto the couch as his body surrounded me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. He forced my lips apart to make an entrance for his tongue and as soon as his soft and inviting tongue entered my mouth, it was like my entire world stopped moving around me.

His tongue explored my mouth curiously and entwined with my tongue. I couldn’t get enough of him as he finally broke his kiss from my lips and trailed it down my chest. His fingers moved up the bare of my stomach, taking my shirt with it.

I positioned myself so the shirt could easily be lifted over my head and once it was, Joseph tossed it to the ground before removing his own shirt. My mouth was watering at the sight of his incredible body. I ran my fingers down his washboard abs and tugged at the hem of his pants.

There was a want in his eyes that I was pretty sure matched the need in mine.

He grabbed my arms and lifted them over my head, preventing me from touching him. I whined silently as he conquered my bare breast in his mouth and began to flick his tongue across my nipples.

I couldn’t help the moan that escaped my lips from the sensation, and I arched my back as pleasure rose throughout my entire body. My nipples were growing pinker and harder as he continued to tug them between his teeth.

A throaty growl escaped from him as he licked and sucked every corner of my body. His fingers worked to caress and touch every part of me, and I loved the way he felt against me.

I wanted… no… I needed so much more of him.

As if he was reading my mind, his hands shifted to my pants and he started to slide them down my legs, taking my panties with them. I’ve reached a point where I stopped being embarrassed about stuff like that in front of him.

He’s already seen me at my most vulnerable and this was nothing he hasn’t seen before.

Heat was slamming into my lower abdominal area, and I could feel the juices of my pleasure pooling between my legs. Hunger was in his eyes as he took in my naked form.

I arched my pelvis area, silently begging for him to conquer me. I wanted him to make me feel good; I needed this release.

A smile crept on his lips as he lowered himself between my legs, moving them apart with his hands, and blowing a gentle puff of air area across my core.

I shuddered from the sensation; goosebumps attacked my skin.

“Joseph…” I gasped, wiggling my hips for him to touch me.

He still hasn’t touched my core; he only blew a little bit of air on it and my entire body reacted to it.

He kissed my inner thighs and the lower part of my belly. He was teasing me; he was purposely not touching my sensitive areas and I was growing restless.

“Please…” I whimpered, wanting so much more of him.

I needed to feel him.

A mischievous smile spread across his lips, and I saw red pooling in his eyes as his vampire face took form.

“Tell me what you want me to do to you,” he said in a sexy and dark tone.

It caused my body to grow excited.

“Touch me…” I whispered; I knew it was barely audible, but I also knew that he could hear me clearly. “I want you to touch me.”

“Where do you want me to touch you, sweet girl?” He asked as he ran his fingers down my inner thighs and then he kissed where he had touched. “Here?”

I shook my head, wiggling my hips again.

“No…” I whispered.

“How about right here?” He asked, kissing the inner thigh of my other leg.

“No…” I said again, breathlessly and more impatient.

He kissed further down this time; he was so close that I could feel his hair brushing across my core.

“Joseph…” I whined.

“Right here?” He asked, and then, like a jolt of electricity, my entire body responded as his tongue connected with my clit and he drew small circles around the little nub.

I arched my back in response and a loud moan escaped my lips before I could stop it. He started slowly with his tongue; only teasing my clit for a few minutes before he began to pick up speed.

My desires and juices poured from me as he shoved his fingers inside, he continued to lick and nibble my nub. It didn’t take long for me to release my pleasures. I yelled out his name as I came undone.

But I wasn’t done with him yet. I wrapped my legs around him and pulled him into the sitting position so I could straddle him. I pressed my lips against his as I tightened my legs around his torso. He wrapped his arms around my waist and soon I felt his manhood sliding inside of my core.

He let out a satisfied sigh as he felt himself entering my body. His manhood twitched with excitement inside of me and I quickened my pace, wanting to feel his every inch.

He captured my breast in his mouth as I continued to ride him. He moaned with every thrust, and it made me smile. I loved that I had this effect on him. I loved how much he loved me.

He threw his head back and let out a satisfied sigh as his hands squeezed my hips. I felt my climax rising to the top again and I knew it wouldn’t be long before I came undone once again.

Just then his phone started to ring, but without missing a beat, Joseph lifted me and placed me on my back as he continued to thrust even harder into me.

“Ignore it,” he grunted as his lips captured mine.

He didn’t have to tell me twice.

We continued our love-making session into the night. And when we finished, he held me while I slept, neither of us moving into the bedroom or getting dressed. We lay naked on the couch, holding one another and feeling more love than ever.

Joseph’s POV

The sun wasn’t awake yet and neither was Tessa. I woke up with her curled up on top of me, completely naked, with nothing but a blanket covering us both. I never wanted to let her go; her body felt so smooth against mine and her warmth was all the blanket that I needed.

My phone was on the ground beside the couch; I figured now was a good time to see who was calling me earlier.

I reached across the floor and grabbed my phone, trying not to make too much noise or movements and risk waking Tessa.

When I glanced at the screen, I frowned when I saw Officer Mulligan’s name. I sent him a text after I left Dean Miller’s office, so I was expecting his phone call.

I saw that he left me a text message as well, so I opened the message thread and studied what he had said.

Mulligan: I have the proof you needed. It’s enough to dispute Jeremy Evans’ claims and get him expelled.
