My Human Mate novel Chapter 6

"Just stop it, Blaze!" she said, irritated. When Blaze wasn't in school, Ella had a peaceful life, but today her peaceful world is in turmoil again. When she entered the gate earlier, the first thing she saw was Blaze's annoying face.

"Admit it first, love," he said cheekily. Ella rolled her eyes while crossing her arms over her chest.

"Admit what!?" she said, raising her voice.

"That you missed me," Blaze replied with a smug look on his face. Ella looked at him as if he was gone crazy. She shook her head and laughed.

"You really are full of confidence, huh?" she said. "But no, I don't," she added and walked away, smiling triumphantly. Blaze grabbed Ella's arm, causing her to bump into his chest. She shivered in his touch. She felt the sparks flying once again.

"I don't believe you, sweetie," he huskily whispered in her ear.

"Let go!" Ella said, turning red and stammering. Blaze chuckled and let her go. Ella suddenly felt regretful.

"Ella? Are you okay?" Blaze worriedly asked. "You spaced out," he added. Ella nodded absentmindedly and turned her back at him. She started walking away, clutching the strap of her bag tightly.

"Ella, wait!" Blaze shouted. Ella didn't look back, and this time, she walked at a breakneck pace.

"I said, wait!" he said and spun her around.

"What the hell is your problem, Blaze?" Ella shouted at his face. "I have other things to do, so please, don't bother me!" she added angrily. Though what she said was a lie. Ella doesn't want to associate herself more with Blaze. The sparks she felt kept confusing her mind, and she doesn't want that.

"And what was it that you will do?" Blaze asked. He wanted to know everything about his mate, even the little things.

"None of your fucking business, Reese," she spat and ran away, leaving Blaze dumfounded. Ella went to the library to rest because her heart was beating erratically.

Blaze entered the Dean's office in a foul mood. He's vexed at how Ella reacted earlier. Blaze grudgingly slumped on the couch, waiting for the Dean.

"What can I do for you, Mr. Reese?" the Dean asked and sat on her swivel chair.

"I want to change my schedule, same as Ella Merlyn Scott," he directly said. The Dean clasped her hands and looked at him.

"Do you mind if I ask?" she said. "Why would you want to change your schedule?" she added thoughtfully. Blaze isn't someone who carelessly flaunts his power. This is why the Dean was curious about his sudden request.

"Because that girl is your future Luna, and I need to be with her," he said, grinning widely. The Dean looked taken aback but smiled at him.

"Yes, Alpha," she said and bowed her head. Blaze stood up. His foul mood was gone after mentioning Ella being his mate. "Blaze?" the Dean called. Blaze glanced at her and saw her holding her phone.

"I sincerely congratulate you on finding your mate," she said. Blaze nodded his head and went out of her office. He went to the classroom where he will be with his mate again. When Blaze got inside, Ella glared at him. He mentally chuckled and sat beside her. The professor entered carrying a book. He glances at Blaze but didn't say any word and began the class.

"Today, we are going to have an activity. It will be by pair," the professor said. "You have to know your partner and present it on the front after. This has something to do with our topic," he added, putting the book down. Murmurs filled the small classroom while Ella groaned. She doesn't like these kinds of activities. She prefers to work alone.

"Listen carefully while I call the pairs," the professor said.

"Cruz and Reyes," he said. Then one by one, he started calling the students paired together. Ella closed her eyes, wishing she won't be paired with the boy she hated. Blaze amusingly glanced at her. An idea struck his mind.

"Partner me with Ms. Scott," he said, mind-linking the professor. He stopped talking for a minute and cleared his throat.

"Yes, Alpha," he replied.

"Scott and Reese," he said. Her ears tingled, hearing her surname.
