Chapter 11: Katrina

Walking out of the locker room, I spotted Miles casually leaning against the wall waiting for me.

“What’s wrong kitten?” He asked furrowing his eyebrows.

“Nothing at all handsome, just some things on my mind.”

“Care to talk about them?” Miles asked taking me into his arms, pressing a soft kiss on my forehead.

“Yes, but can we talk later? I want to discuss it with all of you.”

I felt Miles arms tighten at the mention of my other mates. He was the most possessive out of the four of them, and I knew he was trying his hardest to not be jealous.
“Of course Kitten, whatever you want.” Miles said stepping back and taking my hands in his. “We should hurry up and get you to your next class, you’ll want to make a good impression on Professor Luca. He’s a tough teacher, and with you already being behind on your magical abilities, he’ll be even tougher on you.”

“Magical Studies is about our magical abilities?” I ask as we walk down the corridor.

“Yes, you study your specific talent and how best to defend yourself with it. In magical enhancement, you’ll learn ways to increase your power.”

“Ah okay, I see.”

Miles and I took a left, and standing outside the nearest door waiting for us, was Beckett.

“Hey Darling, fancy meeting you in a place like this.” Beckett said reaching out and grabbing my hand, pulling me away from Miles.

“I’ll see you later Kitten.” Miles stated kissing my hand and letting me go, “She’s in your hands now Beckett.” He added in facing Beckett now.

“Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of our girl.” Beckett said acknowledging Miles concern.

“And how do you now that I won’t be taking care of you big boy?” I asked wrapping my arms around Beckett’s slender toned frame and resting my head against his chest, inhaling his fresh ocean scent. “Mmm you always smell so good, such a refreshing relaxing scent.” I mumbled into his chest.

“Glad you like it Darling. Just your scent alone makes me want to devour you,” He whispers into my ear, his warm breath against my ear turning me on slightly, “It makes me wonder if you taste as good as you smell.”

“Why don’t you come and find out then.” I winked at him as I pulled away from him and made my way into the classroom; letting out a sigh of relief when I saw that Hilda wasn’t in this class. I was already nervous about practicing magic as is. I didn’t need her in here making her snide comments.

Professor Luca looked polar opposite of what I expected him to look like, when Miles mentioned him, I had pictured an older man, with a graying beard and a receding hairline, who dressed in a semi formal dress attire; basically a version of how young Dumbledore was portrayed in The Fantastic Beasts moving.
What I wasn’t suspecting was a panty dropping, darker haired version of the German actor Jannik Schumann. I let my eyes wander the rest of our Professor, noticing thanks to his skin tight black shirt that he had the same body as Jannik too. I could see his perfectly sculpted chest and broad muscular shoulders. He wore a pair of dark blue denim jeans and black sneakers. He also had on a cocky grin that showed he knew how good he looked. What the hell was wrong with me, why was I checking out our Magical Studies teacher when I already had four mates who were more than enough for me.

“Katrina, right?” Professor Luca asked look straight at me as I started to head towards the middle of the classroom.

“Umm yeah that’s me.” I responded, feeling Beckett’s hand go to waist, a possessive statement, indicating that I belonged to him. If we weren’t in public I would have chastised him for acting like I was his property, but i didn’t want to draw more attention to myself today, than was absolutely necessary.

“Since you’re just a beginner you can take a seat at the front of the class,” Professor Luca stated, pointing to the desk directly in front of his own, “Beckett you can take a seat in the back as you’re the most advanced student in this class."

Damn, I was really hoping I could use this class to get to know Beckett better. He was quieter than his cousins, and I wanted to take this one on one time to really get to know who Beckett was as a person.

“The Headmaster has already indicated that he wants us to stay with Katrina and train her in her classes, Luca.” Beckett responded, his tone stern and one full of authority.

“The professor doesn’t dictate what I do in this class Beckett, and neither do you. You can either sit in the back like I’ve told you to do, or you and your mate can leave this class.” The Professor smiled mischievously.

Beckett thought it over for a minute, whatever decision he made, I would support him. I have no doubt that Beckett would be able to teach me whatever we learned in this class. Beckett let out a frustrated growl, before turning towards me. “If you begin to feel uncomfortable at all, let me know and we will leave.”

“Will do,” I replied, slightly disappointed that Beckett hadn’t chosen to drop the class.

Beckett must have seen the disappointment in my eyes, because as he leaned down to give me a soft kiss on my lips, he answered my silent question. “I’d love to get you by yourself and spend some one on one time together, but it would get in the way of your training, I can only teach you how to defend yourself against water magic, I wouldn’t be able to help you hone in on your own magical abilities, or protect yourself from other magical attacks. Plus I would look bad on the ocean kingdom, if their heir dropped out of class to spend time with his girl.”

I nodded my understanding at him, leaning into him to return his soft kiss.

“I’ll come get you after your one on one session with Professor Luca. He is a descendant of Loki, he has the ability to mimic ones powers. He will be the most helpful tool in finding out exactly what Divine powers you posses.”

I gave Beckett a worried expression, recalling the hellfire I was able to create last night.

“He can only sense divine powers.” Beckett whispered in my ear, “Your secret will be safe.”

I watched as Beckett walked away to take a seat at the back of the classroom, his backside just as sexy as his front.

“Katrina,” Professor Luca, called making me jump. “If you would follow me this way please. To the rest of my class, practice the defensive mechanism we learned yesterday with the someone who is the same power level as you but has the opposite power as your own. That means, Sky Kingdom with the Underground Kingdom, And Earth Kingdom with Sea Kingdom. Once Katrina and I get back, you’ll each demonstrate what you’ve learned.”

Luca headed quickly out the door, and I had to hurriedly grab my bag and run after him.

“Where are we going professor?” I asked as I finally caught up with him.

“To the fields outside, they are the safest location when trying to unearth someone’s divine gift.”

“Have you always been able to find your students gifts?” I asked feeling nervous. What if I was found unworthy to attend the academy, what if the Heavenly Light hadn’t actually come from me, but someone else from the club.

“Yes.” Professor Luka replied stopping directly in front of the green fields, “This part of class may be a little invasive. In order for me to mimic your powers, we will both need to undress and hold hands.”

“Uhh..” I stammered, shifting from one foot to another, “Are you sure this is the only way?”

“Without a doubt Katrina, I have done this thousands of times. Clothing can sometimes get in the way of power sharing; which is what we will be doing, and having a bodily connection will help me control your powers. I don’t usually hold hands with my students, but the Headmaster informed me that you used heavenly light and. I could sense your power the minute you walked into class today. We will need that skin to skin contact today.”

“Okay,” I replied, finally conceding,”Is it okay if I leave my undergarments on?” I asked hoping for a least a little privacy.

“Yes, that should be fine, if for some reason it effects the discovery, we can strip them off.”

“Okay,” I nodded as I pulled off my red tie and started it unbutton my blouse, before shimmying out of my skirt. When I looked up, Professor Luka was starring at me, his clothes were still on indicating that he had been watching me the entire time. Not that I blamed him, I knew I had a great body. “I’m ready if you are.”

The professor snapped his hands and his clothes immediately disappeared. Yup his body definitely resembled Jannik’s, and I found myself wanting to trace his entire torso with my tongue.

Luka let out a chuckle, “ I doubt your mates would appreciate your thoughts right now. Although I don’t blame you in the least bit. It’ll be hard to resist the pull I feel towards you as well.”

My face flushed red, I hadn’t realized that Luca could read my thoughts, and what did he mean by pull?

***Professor Luka's point of view will be up next. Hope you enjoyed today's chapter. xoxo-Marriah***
