I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It novel Chapter 337

Ella’s POV

I was seeing red.

Val was already perched and ready to rip this bitch’s head right off her shoulders. If she wasn’t so focused on keeping our twins safe, she would have already shifted and done just that. But wolves don’t like to shift during pregnancy for safety reasons.

However, they will if they truly need to.

Bri, knowing me very well, grabbed my arm to keep me steady. I didn’t realize my fists were clenched as tightly as they were until my fingers grew sore.

Connie looked between the two of us wide-eyed before clearing her throat and turning to Natalie Anderson with a plastered smile on her face.

“I’d love to see the menu the chef has to offer,” she said trying to draw Natalie’s attention back to her.

It seemed to have worked because Natalie turned away from me and faced Connie.

“I take my job very seriously, Connie. I promise this wedding is my main priority and it will be talked about for an eternity,” Natalie assured her as she rummaged through more papers.

“I have a designer as well; she will be here tomorrow to take measurements and then we can try on some gowns. I’m thinking strapless to show off your incredible shoulders,” Natalie said, pointing at Connie’s chest.

Connie nodded, still looking awkwardly as she stole glances in my direction.

“I want a tiara as well,” Connie said, chuckling nervously. “I want to feel like a princess.”

“Of course,” Natalie agreed.

I was still simmering in my own anger. I couldn’t seem to stop glaring at Natalie. I already hated her. I didn’t want her anywhere near my future wedding. I didn’t want her to plan anything of mine.

Little girl.

Who did she think she was?

“Maybe we should let them talk and we can go for a walk,” Bri said, standing to her feet, keeping her hand wrapped around my arm.

“That’s probably a good idea,” Connie said, eyeing me carefully.

Natalie glanced up at me, raised one perfectly trimmed eyebrow, and folded her arms across her busty chest before leaning back in her seat.

“Do we have a problem?” She then asked.

I was about to open my mouth to tell her how exactly I felt about her presence, but Bri pulled me along with her before I could get a word out.

“There’s no problem,” Bri said with a nervous chuckle over her shoulder. “It was nice meeting you, Natalie.”

On that note, we were leaving the parlor and went out the back door to stand on the patio. There were a couple of pack members sitting on the patio and speaking with one another about their days.

I loved that Colton had this packhouse open to everyone in his pack for when they needed or wanted a place to hang out. He let them sleep in guest rooms when needed as well. My father is the same way with the Nova Packhouse.

Of course, the top couple of floors that are dedicated to the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma were off-limits for all except the packhouse maids, but they were allowed to wander anywhere else.

“Good evening, Ella,” one of the she-wolves said, smiling over at me as we passed.

“Oh, hello,” I said in return, nodding my head to her. “Have you met my friend, Brianna? She’s Beta’s Ethan’s mate.”

“We haven’t,” they both said at the same time.

“A new Beta female?” One of them asked. “That’s exciting. I’m so glad Beta Ethan finally found his mate. We were beginning to wonder if he ever would.”

“Welcome to the pack, Beta Female,” the other said, bowing her head slightly at Brianna whose face turned bright red.

“Oh, please. Call me Bri, and thank you,” Brianna said in return, making both she-wolves smile widely at her.

The fresh air and the simple conversation were enough to calm me. I was so glad Bri got me out of there when she did because I was definitely about to do something I’d regret.

I turned to Bri and together we walked down the steps that lead into the packhouse yard.

“So, when are you going to get married?” She asked the question I knew she’d been dying to know.

“I wanted to wait until after graduation,” I told her, staring down at my belly. “But things might change now that I’m pregnant.”

“Well, when you do get married, can I be your maid of honor?”

I looked at her, surprised by her question.

“Of course,” I said to her, giving her a side hug. “You are my best friend. I wouldn’t want anything more.”

From a distance, I heard, and then saw, Colton’s car pulling around the side of the packhouse. He was back!!

“I have to go,” I said, eagerly running toward Colton’s car.

He parked the car and got out just as I reached him and flew myself into his open arms.

“Miss me?” He laughed.

“More than anything,” I breathed, burying my face in his chest as he held me tightly.

“Did something happen while I was away?”

I opened my mouth to tell him about that awful wedding planner, but I didn’t want to start anything, and I really was feeling better since taking a walk with Brianna. Besides, I didn’t want to ruin Connie’s wedding planning.

So, I just shook my head and stood on my toes to kiss him.

“I just missed my mate,” I told him, which was the truth.

He smiled and kissed me on the lips; this kiss wasn’t as gentle and sweet as it had been. It had more hunger and desires attached to it and it made my heart flip in my chest. I wrapped my arms around his neck as he lifted me into his arms and cradled me bridal style.
