Alexandria waited in the University's library; she couldn't believe her situation. Professor Elliot was spying on her, and many thoughts came to her. She wondered if he saw her in her most private and vulnerable moments. There were times when she masturbated, and the thought of him watching her made her feel like trash.
"Alexandria?" Richard arrived while taking some breaths.
"P-Professor. I know that we just saw each other but something happened today that I didn't know who else to call."
Richard was shocked initially when she called him. Meeting his student alone many times would be deemed suspicious and against University policy. By looking at Alexandria, he knew something was wrong. "What happened?" He listened intently to Alexandria about Elliot being a suspect of killing his wife, being interrogated by a Detective, and Elliot putting cameras in her home.
Everything was surprising, and some of his mind found it hard to believe. Richard took out his phone and typed Elliot Landon's name. His eyes widened when he saw that everything he was told was true; Elliot was suspected of murdering his wife.
"I know you have a hard time believing me, even I am still processing everything. The Detective showed me that Elliot was spying on me! All those times I caught him looking at me in a certain way whenever he taught. How uncomfortable I felt whenever I was in his class! My god! That sick bastard has a sick attraction to me!" Alexandria covered her face as tears formed and dripped onto her hands. "I'm so scared that I don't know what else to do! I don't want to call my best friends for help for I'm afraid that I'm going to put them in danger! I called you because I needed your advice!"
People in the library looked at the duo; Richard noticed and motioned his student to go to a private section of the library. "It's okay, I understand. Take deep breaths." Alexandria followed his directions as she took deep breaths. "Okay, you are in a precarious position and I also understand that you don't want to put your friends at risk. You said that Elliot put cameras in your home, how does she know this?"
"Sh-She mentioned about breaking a law where she had cameras installed in Elliot's home and it showed him watching me."
Richard sighed as he massaged his forehead. He knew the Detective broke many laws that could lead to lawsuits and loss of one's position. If the Detective was taking a risk, Elliot was not trifled with or taken lightly. Looking at Alexandria made him feel worried for her.
Alexandria trusted him.
"Okay, until Elliot is being put behind bars, you're not safe. I have an idea and I was want to be sure if you would be okay with it. I own another condo that is thirty minutes from the University. I can pick you up early in the morning to drop you off the University so no one gets the wrong idea."
The proposition was all of a sudden. Living far from the University had its difficulties, but she was at possible risk. If Elliot was capable of possible murder, then she didn't know what else he was capable of with her. "Are you sure about this? I-I don't want to intrude into your private life."
"Don't worry about it. You called because you needed advice and I gave you a solution. Besides that extra condo is empty and the last people I rented it to left three months ago. It kind of hurts to leave it with no one. I insist."
Alexandria felt slightly awkward going into one of Richard's properties since he was her Professor. Yet, being at home wasn't an option since Detective Rose would go there to get evidence. The cameras would lead her to him; it was only a matter of time. "Okay, I'll do it. Thank you so very much! It's just that..."
"I appreciate you trusting me with this. I will speak with the Head of the Department tomorrow morning about the situation. If Elliot has a sick attraction toward you, we will help to keep you safe."
"Maybe I should get some clothes and-"
"Don't. If he is spying on you, he will question why you are getting some clothes and leaving. Elliot is no fool; he will suspect something is amiss when you are not home for a long period of time. I will buy you some clothes."
Alexandria's eyes widened. "There's no need! I have my own money and-"
"I insist besides, it's pointless to argue with your Professor." Richard winked at her and motioned out of the library toward the parking structure.
The young woman felt safe for the moment and hoped that Elliot would soon be locked up. However, her situation was a slight blessing since she would be staying in a condo owned by Richard. "Maybe I have more of an opportunity to hang out more with him."
