"Let me take a look." The handsome professor, with his broad shoulders and powerful muscles, lifted me effortlessly and placed me on the desk. His strong hands gently lowered the strap of my uniform to examine the bruise from training. "Helanie! Why do you always end up hurt?" His voice grew husky, sending a shiver down my spine as I struggled to catch my breath. I had to remind myself that he’s my professor... and my stepbrother. I shouldn’t be seduced by his touch.

Helanie:
Everyone had gathered in the living room, waiting for me to announce the details of the task and explain the rules. However, we had to wait a few more minutes as the ones serving punishments had yet to arrive.
Eventually, they rushed in, looking like a complete mess. Sydney's hair had remnants of food in it--I guessed some rich alpha's mate had been offended by her attitude and tossed an amuse-bouche at her. Meanwhile, one of the ladies had pushed Salem away when she attempted to retaliate.
The two of them looked utterly miserable. They muttered under their breaths, passing snide comments and pulling faces, which immediately drew the attention of everyone in the room. Norman, unsurprisingly, called them out. I heard they had already been thoroughly scolded and that their punishment had been extended beyond what was initially planned.
