My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Lila’s POV
“Are you nervous about this new facility?” I asked, peering over at Rachel who was in the middle of
packing her things.
We were both packing.
She was packing to head to the rehab facility for the month and I was packing to head back to campus.
Rachel looked incredibly nervous as she nodded her head; no words could describe how she was feeling
at that moment. I couldn’t blame her for being nervous though. The last facility she went to abused her
to the point where she nearly died.
I still couldn’t believe that happened in Elysium.
Thankfully, my father had that shutdown and almost everyone to took part in that was arrested.
“What about you?” She asked, peering over at me from across my bed as she folded her clothing. “Are
you nervous about finals?”
I honestly hadn’t thought much about finals. With everything going on, it seemed kind of pointless to
stress about something like that.
I was just kidnapped and nearly killed; Brody was nearly killed.
I shook my head, giving her my best confident smile.
“Not a chance; I’m going to crush it,” I said brightly.
She couldn’t help but laugh at my words as she shook her head.
“I don’t doubt that. You crush everything and anything you set your mind to,” she said in return. “Just
don’t trash our room. I don’t want to come back, and everything is a mess.”
“I wouldn’t dream of it,” I chuckled.
At that point, my father knocked on the bedroom door before he opened it.

“I’m going to take Rachel to the facility now. Are you almost packed, Lila? Enzo will be here any
moment.”
My heart felt heavy in my chest as I thought about spending more time with Alpha Enzo.
He saved me from something terrible and I was incredibly grateful that he was there with me. But I still
found myself being nervous around him and I didn’t even know why.

“Our mate has that effect on us,” Val said with a chuckle. “It’s completely normal to have butterflies like
that.”
“Butterflies?” I asked her in return. “That’s what I’m feeling?”
“Oh, yes,” she said in return. “We feel intense butterflies. Enzo is incredible in every way, and I think you
are now just starting to realize that.”
I didn’t want to think about it anymore, so I tuned out the rest of what my wolf was saying as I turned to
my father and gave him a small smile.
“I’m almost ready,” I told him.
Rachel zipped her suitcase and pulled it off my bed.
“Thank you for letting me stay here this week,” she said to me and my father. “It means a lot that you
cared enough to help me.”
“Of course,” I said as I wrapped my arms around her tightly. “You are one of my best friends, Rachel. I
only want what’s best for you. You should know that.”
“I know,” she breathed, relaxing into my hug. “I’m sorry for causing such a mess.”
“It’s understandable,” I said. “You nearly lost someone very important to you. I don’t blame you one bit.”
I say “nearly” because I’m refusing to believe the worst outcome; even though Ryan still hasn’t woken
up.
We pulled apart and I saw the tears in her eyes.
“It’s only for a month,” I reminded her.
“Yes, but then it’s summer and you are going to Monstro for two months,” she said, wiping at her eyes.
“I won’t see you for like three months.”
I laughed and hugged her again.
“I’ll miss you too,” I whispered.
She hugged me tightly, neither of us wanting to let go.
“All right girls,” my father said, breaking us up. “It’s not forever. But we need to go now.”
Rachel nodded and grabbed her suitcase.
“Please call me if Ryan wakes up,” she pleaded.
“Of course,” I said in return.
After a moment longer, she left behind my father.
But not before long, my mother entered my room.
“Enzo is waiting downstairs for you,” she said, eyeing me carefully.
I finished zipping my own bag before walking towards the door, which she was blocking.
“Are you going to be okay returning to school so soon after what had happened?” She asked, furrowing
her brows together as she examined my face.
“I have to be,” I told her in return. “Next week is finals and I need to be prepared.”
She sighed and gave me a hug.
“Well, if there’s anyone, I trust to care for you and watch over you, it’s Alpha Enzo,” she breathed.
I wasn’t sure what that meant, but I chose not to ask her. I hugged her back tightly; feeling the comfort
of my mother was exactly what I needed at that moment.
“I love you, Lila Bean,” she breathed.
“I love you too,” I said in return.
“Oh, and your uncle Don sent over some gammas to patrol the academy, so you’ll be completely safe.”
I didn’t want gammas to be watching me like a hawk while I’m trying to study, but something told me I
didn’t have a choice.
I thanked her and hugged her one last time before I followed her out of my room and down the stairs.
Enzo was speaking to my father in the front room before my father left with Rachel.
I stared up at Enzo who just looked back at me with zero emotions on his face. I shouldn’t have been
surprised by that.
“Ready?” He asked.
I nodded my head once.
I said goodbye to my mother and the twins before getting into Enzo’s car.
