I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It novel Chapter 326

Ella’s POV

My heart was pounding as I stood over Dr. Laureen. I had never done anything like that in my life and my adrenaline was rushing.

I bent down and pressed my middle and pointer fingers against the nape of her neck and felt a pulse. I was relieved that I hadn’t killed her, but I needed to get out of there before she woke up or anyone showed up.

I stood to my feet and rushed toward the doorway. I wasn’t sure where I was going, but I could hear the heart monitor in the next room, so I figured that was the best place to go right now.

I needed to find Sarah and try to get us out of there.

When I reached the doorway that led out of the clinic, I could hear some light talking in the distance. They weren’t close to the door, but I feared they were close enough to hear the door opening, or maybe even see me leaving.

I had to be careful.

Deciding I didn’t want to leave the room unprotected, I went toward the closet on the far side of the room hoping I would find something to wear other than this hospital gown. I was starting to feel drafty, and it was making me feel uncomfortable.

The closet consisted of a bunch of cleaning supplies, but after a few minutes of searching, I uncovered a bag that had a change of clothes inside of it. They were basic pants with pockets and a shirt with a few stains on it. But it was better than nothing.

Once I dressed in them, I noticed they were very baggy on me. I had to tie the shirt in the back to keep it from flowing too much. The less my clothes moved, the better.

There wasn’t much I could do with the pants, but thankfully there weren’t any chains on them to make noise.

I quickly left the closet and went over to the same drawer that Dr. Laureen was rummaging through. I grabbed syringes of different colors, unsure of what they were used for. I also grabbed a couple of scalpels and tucked them each in different pockets.

Dr. Laureen was still lying on the ground. She was breathing, but unconscious.

Jazzy said she'd be making her way back here to collect us soon, so I needed to be quick.

I pressed my ear against the door and this time, the voices seemed to have stopped. Taking a chance, I pushed the door open slowly and peered into the hallway.

There was nobody there.

Holding my breath, I slid into the hallway, shutting the door behind me, and then running as quietly as I could toward an area that almost looked like an infirmary. From the big glass windows, I saw a bunch of beds set up around a nurse's station. Thankfully, the nurse's station was vacant. There weren’t any guards around here either, which came as a huge relief.

When I got closer, I saw that somebody was lying in one of the beds, but they were covered with a blanket, and I couldn’t get a good view of them.

I looked around to make sure no one was coming before I pushed the door open and scurried inside.

When I cautiously neared the bed, I felt like I could finally breathe when their face came into view, and I knew exactly who it was.

“Sarah…” I breathed, trying to keep my voice as low as possible.

She was sleeping, but it was definitely her. I ran over to her, placing my hands on her face. She was a little warm and she was hooked up to an IV; her heart monitor beeped lightly in the corner.

I shook her lightly, trying to get her to wake up while making as little noise as possible.

“Sarah…” I said again, hoarsely. “Please wake up…” I pleaded.

She groaned miserably, making way too much noise so I quickly covered her mouth with my hands. Her eyes popped open during that impact, and she tried to shove me off before realization dawned on her face.

When she got a good look at me, her eyes narrowed and then they widened in shock. She stopped struggling against me, and now she was just staring at me with such concern in her eyes.

“We need to get out of here,” I told her in a hushed whisper, slowly removing my hands from her lips.

“Why are you here?” She asked in return, also whispering as she sat up slowly.

Her brown hair messily fell around her features; I had never seen her look so messy before. Her hair was undone and looked very knotted, she wasn’t wearing any makeup, she smelled a bit musky from lack of bathing, and she was also wearing a hospital gown. She was pale as well and looked as if she had lost a ton of weight.

“I don’t know what they told you, but these people aren’t what they seem…” I tried to explain; I didn’t know if she was going to believe me; but I really needed her to trust me.

We needed to go before they found us.

She glanced around the room before her eyes landed on me again.

“They told me they were saving me from the curse…” she said, almost sounding disappointed, but also not surprised. “I feared that it might be false…”

I was quiet for a moment as I processed her words. I knew they weren’t going to tell her the entire story, just like they didn’t tell Alpha Jonathan the entire story as well.

“They want to kill me and use me to turn you into a Volana vessel,” I told her, gripping her hands gently. “It’s going to cure you from the curse, but it will also turn you into a mindless vessel. Jazzy’s vessel.”
