I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Lila’s POV

Hazel was in her hospital bed when we arrived at the Calypso Pack Hospital. It only took us about 25

minutes to get there from the city. We wasted no time. She was looking for a lot better than when I last

saw her. Hazel’s wounds were healing nicely, and she didn’t look as thin and wasted away. She was still

hooked up to a couple of different machines; one was monitoring her heart rate and the other was

pumping her with a liquid fluid. The heart monitor had a steady rhythm, which was definitely a good

sign. As we entered the hospital, her assigned doctor was the first to greet us. “She will be able to return

home in the morning, Alpha. She’s going to need plenty of rest and to keep up her hydration. But she’s

looking good,” he said, glancing at Hazel with a fond smile. “Thank you for caring for her, Doctor,” Enzo

was given some medication yesterday that kept me asleep all evening last night and day today,” she

said. “I haven’t been sleeping much because I’ve been so worried about the village, and they thought it

would help me. I don’t think they anticipated I’d be asleep this long.” “You mentioned on the phone

that you can feel Jazzy’s magic,” Enzo said, stepping toward her. My eyes widened at his words. “What?”

I gasped. “It’s true… I can feel her dark magic at play. But it’s more than that,” she said, her eyes

darkening. “I can feel darkness.” “Darkness?” I asked, furrowing my brows together. “I’ve only felt this

once before,” she explained. “A long time ago. Jazzy has conjured it before.” “She conjured darkness?”

Enzo asked. “How is that possible?” “It takes a very dark heart and a sacrifice to do it,” Hazel explained;

her expression was grave. “I don’t know what she could want with darkness though. The first time it was

only to cause mayhem to let out the anger she felt when our parents died.” “Mayhem…” I breathed; it

wasn’t a question. I grabbed Enzo’s arm as the thoughts of the mayhem at school yesterday surfaced in

my mind. “Enzo, could it have something to do with what happened at the election yesterday? “What

happened?” Hazel asked us quickly, looking between us. “We were having an election for President of

the student committee, and during this election everybody who has magic became powerless,” he

explained; her face turned mortified as he explained the events that unfolded last night. I thought, for a

moment, that she was going to jump out of bed and run from the room. I had never seen anyone look

quite as terrified as Hazel felt and it made my stomach twist into a tight and unsettling knot. “That
