Favorite Teacher

Ashton panicked. He needs to hide his stiff member before Cara comes in. He dropped to the floor just in time.

Cara opened the door, and it surprised her to see Ashton on the floor as he was doing some pushups.

"Oh, he does evening work out, that's why his body is so perfect." Cara thought while looking at the ripped back and at the perky bums of Ashton. "God, he is hot as fu…" Cara shook her head, wanting to let go of the thoughts that came into her dirty mind.

"Got a second?" She asked Ashton, but almost no sound is coming out of her throat.

"Yeah, sure." He answered as he stood up and walked towards a chair nearby to get a towel to wipe his face and body. He also wore a robe to cover the part of his body he badly wants to hide. He held the towel in front of him before he faced Cara.

"What is it, babe?" He asked Cara with his sexy smile. He said it so smoothly, no one will know that he is hiding something.

"Well, now that I am stronger than ever, how can I help out my kind from the Phantoms?" Cara asked in a serious tone. The thought of a story of another dead witch breaks her heart, as she feels useless at the moment.

Cara sat down at Ashton's bed. He approached her and sat beside Cara. Ashton knows that the next few days will be tough for Cara. He can only do so much to help her. He took a deep breath before he answered.

"First of all, you have to gather them. Being the Sakalam, you have power over the four elements; earth wind, fire and water. But if the leaders of each element are around you, you are twice as strong as all of them combined. So, with your coven complete you stand a bigger chance of defeating your enemies." Ashton explained to Cara.

"Well, that's good to hear, but I thought you said that our powers cannot hurt any human being?" his explanation further confused Cara.

"Correct. That's why you have to be creative in thinking ways of defeating them." Ashton reminded Cara of how she was successful in punishing him indirectly.

"Hmm, I think I can do that with the help of my family. So how do I find them exactly?" Cara excitedly asked.

"You have to summon them and they will know that you have arrived. The leaders, they will do a ritual that will enable you to track them." Ashton replied.

"How do I summon them?" Cara wanted to know everything at once.

Ashton chuckled at his excited master. "Well, that's what we're going to do tomorrow." He said as he gently opened Cara's door, signaling her to leave his room.

She nodded and walked slowly to her door. Ashton is slowly closing the door when Cara jammed her hand to ask Ashton another question.

"If that's what I had to do, then why did we have to get married?" She asked Ashton with her eyebrows raised and her hands on her hips.

"hahaha" Ashton could not help but laugh at Cara's scrunched-up face.

"You know what? Sometimes, I ask myself that same question. Goodnight wifey," He winked at Cara before he fully closed the door.

"Is this guy flirting with me?" Cara blurted out and let out half a smile as she dropped herself on her bed.

The next day, Cara made sure her outfit will suit the day's activity.

She wore a pair of trainer shoes and yoga pants. She partnered it sports top and a crop top. She could not find her gray hooded jackets and pants in her closet. She tied her hair in a high ponytail, exposing her long neck and collarbones. Some people find this sexy, and this is the first time Cara is exposing them like nobody's watching.

For Cara, Ashton is equivalent to a nobody since he never sees her like a woman. At least that's what she thought.

She looks at herself in the mirror with a big smile on her face. Her new found self-confidence is something Cara finds weird. It is weird how such a thing could teach her to love herself more.

"Cara." Ashton was already at the door knocking.

Cara glanced at her watch. It is barely five thirty in the morning and Ashton is already awake. "Hmm, the CEO is breaking his routine again. Hmmm Interesting." She muttered as she sprayed her favorite perfume.

She opened her door, and Ashton saw her instantly. Cara could not figure out his reaction. What made her more confused was when she realized what Ashton was wearing. "You said we are doing some summoning today. Why are you too formal?" Cara asked him.

"Cara, summoning is your tradition, we are doing a ritual, not some exercises," He insisted, while raking Cara with his eyes.

"Hmm yeah, sorry, I thought it would be a strenuous activity." She replied as her confidence earlier is escaping her body even before she got a chance to get out of her room.

She slowly turned around and closed her door.

"Gosh, I'm such a fool. To think that I've never seen a movie where the witch doing the ritual is in her yoga pants!" Cara said, as she was browsing her wardrobe. She took out a black dress. Cara tried it on her. The off-shoulder cut and lace fabric topped a black challis looks great on her. She partnered it with her black flats. She knows the walk towards the maze would be uncomfortable on her heels.

She walked out of her room and asked Ashton, who patiently waited in his room.

"Is this okay?"

He nodded. "Perfect."

They were both quiet as they were walking. It was awkward for Cara to start the conversation. She hates how she finds Ashton more and more attractive as the days passes; And Ashton's new attitude towards her is making it harder not to feel that little spark whenever he is near.

Cara feels like a teenager having a crush on her teacher.

"Do you have something to say to me?" Ashton asked Cara directly as he messed up his hair to ease the awkward between them.

It caught Cara off guard. She choked on her own saliva. Her favorite teacher just called her for a recitation when she is unprepared.

"Are you okay?" Ashton's question brought her back to reality.

"Yeah, I was just thinking about why I can't feel your animosity towards me anymore." She answered and was immediately expecting some backlash.

"What's the point? I mean it's not like I can get rid of you by being rude to you." He chuckled.

"That's true." Cara laughed. She is actually pleased that she has finally come to terms with Ashton. A lifetime of bickering with him is not something she's looking forward to.

"Hmm, I hope you don't mind, but at first I find you tolerable. I mean barely tolerable." He confessed to Cara.

"Hahaha, I know. That's funny because that's what I think of myself too." She responded directly, pouring out her insecurities.

"No, what I mean is, that now… I am actually enjoying my time with you." He said with that sexy smile Cara just noticed recently.

She turned crimson hearing those words from her favorite teacher. She lowered her head, wanting to hide her red face.

"I'm sorry if I made your life miserable for the past weeks. I'm a jerk. A selfish one." He admitted his mistake.

Ashton stalled and looked at Cara with a serious face.

"You know, as a matter of fact; I think I'm starting to like you."
