Chapter 176

• - HAZEL -
• Standing outside the door of Killian’s office, I let out a heavy sigh. I feel strange. I’ve never felt this odd before when it came to him yet I do now. I can’t shove the thought that I’m a stranger here.
• I fold my fist and knock on his door, the usual triple tap. “Professor Killian, it’s the student you called for.” I say. Professor Killian. . . Calling that out loud makes the oddness even more profound. I can’t tell if he can hear me or not but can I just barge in considering I’d need a card.
