I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Lila’s POV
I’m not sure at what point she woke up, but Enzo’s mom stared between the two of us through her
swollen eyes.
“Mom?” Enzo said, his eyes wide and alarmed. “You’ve been awake this whole time?”
“Yes,” she said weakly. “I didn’t want to interrupt.”
“I’m so sorry I wasn’t here,” he whispered, lowering his head in shame.
It broke my heart to see him like this; I knew at that moment how much he truly loved his mother. I
never really took him for a family man, but this proved me wrong in all the best ways. I wanted to wrap
my arms around him and hold him close to me, but I knew now was not the time for that.
“Don’t blame yourself,” she whispered, tears welling in her eyes which I could see were now brown. “It
was my fault for leaving without protection. I should have been more careful.”
“If I was—”
“It wasn’t your fault,” she said again, meeting his eyes. “I love you so much, Enzo. Protecting you while
you grew up to be this strong Alpha was my job. I’m proud of the work I’ve done to raise you. Watching
you thrive is repayment enough. You don’t need to keep me protected because you owe it to me.”
“I’m doing it because I love you, Mom,” Enzo said, furrowing his brows together.
At this point, I felt a little weird still being in the room. I knew I probably should give them some privacy.
“I’m sorry to interrupt, but I was thinking about going to the cafeteria to grab some food. Would either
of you like anything?” I asked, staring between the two of them.
Enzo looked up at me and I saw his eyes were misty.
“I’m sorry, I’m being rude,” he said, standing up beside me. He wrapped an arm around my waist and
pulled me closer to him. “Mom…” he said, turning towards his mother who had a hint of a smile on her
lips. “This is my mate… Lila.”
She breathed out like she was holding in a breath, and she stared at me silently for a moment.

“Lila, this is my mother… Diana,” Enzo continued.
Diana; what a beautiful name.
“Oh, Lila. It’s so nice to finally meet you,” Diana breathed. “You are quite beautiful, and I have faith that
you will take great care of my son and his pack.”
Her words were endearing, but they caused a tight knot to form in the pit of my stomach.
And his pack.
I was going to be a Luna. I knew this fact already once Enzo marked me, but now reality was setting in.
Once I graduated from college, I was going to be the Luna of the Calypso pack. Being a Luna was never
anything I thought was going to happen to me in the future. I never saw myself as one.
My mother is a Luna and she set the bar so high that nobody could measure up to her. My mouth was
suddenly dry, and I was feeling all sorts of nervous.
“It’s nice to meet you too,” I said to her, forcing a smile at her. “Enzo has told me a lot about you.”
That was a lie, Enzo doesn’t talk about his mother. Before I got to know him and spoke to Dee, I
thought he didn’t have a good relationship with his mother. I didn’t understand why she chose to live as
a rogue instead of living in Enzo’s pack where she belonged. But now I understood perfectly that it was
because she was terrified.
This was the reason she’s stayed away for all those years and my stomach ached knowing that someone
did this to her.
“I don’t think I can stomach any food, right now,” Diana finally answered my question.
I looked up at Enzo who kissed the top of my forehead gently, making my heart do a flip.
“I’m okay too,” he said softly, against me.
I felt my face redden when I became well aware that his mom was still in the room, so I took a step
back.
“Okay, then I’ll be back,” I told them both politely.
On that note, I turned on my heel and left the room.
I mainly just wanted to give them some privacy; it seemed they had a lot to talk about. I also had a lot
to think about and could use a little alone time of my own.
As I walked the halls, I passed by various doctors and nurses who gave me kind smiles as they passed.
After I graduate, this will be partly mine as well. The hospital, the staff; it would be my responsibility to
make sure they have everything they need.
How was I going to be a Luna?
I swallowed the lump in my throat and continued walking until the elevator came into view. The
cafeteria was on the bottom floor, not that I was very hungry right now. Just as I neared the elevator, I
saw a couple of children running around the halls and weaving in and out of rooms.
One looked to be younger and was holding onto a small teddy bear. They were both giggling. They also
both looked similar; they must have been siblings.
Just when I was about to tell them that running around the hospital like this was dangerous, the
youngest girl tripped over a table and fell to the ground. My heart fell into my stomach when I watched
her fall.
Her arm went right onto the edge of the table, cutting it, as she went down.
Tears instantly fell from her eyes, and she began screaming in pain and horror when she saw her arm.
The other girl stood frozen with wide and frightened eyes.
I didn’t have the time to react. I ran.
I ran as fast as I could down the hallway until I could reach them; once I was there, I fell to the ground.
“It’s going to be okay” I breathed calmly.
