Chapter 9 The Welcome Party

• Zane Orion POV::
• "Professor Orion." Alex is in front of me and all the air in my lungs whooshes out of me as I take in the stunning woman in front of me, the dim lights highlighting the high cheekbones of her oval face. She doesn't look anything like a kid tonight, and it is disorienting. The things I want to do to this woman.
• "Sir?" Her voice is low, and I don't miss the teasing undertone as her eyes hold mine. Darkness surrounds us, and it makes me feel like we are the only ones in the hall with the soft music playing in the background.
