My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Chapter 212

Lila’s POV
“Um, excuse me… I was going to sit there,” a tall brunette girl that I didn’t recognize said, folding her
arms across her busty chest and staring at Corrine like she was beneath her.
Corrine looked puzzled.
“I always sit here,” she said, narrowing her eyes at the girl.
“Flynn is my boyfriend and as my boyfriend, I get to sit next to him,” the girl hissed through her
seemingly perfect teeth.
It suddenly made sense as to who this girl was.
Corrine’s face reddened as the girl who sat beside Justin, chuckled. The girls must have been friends.
Corrine glanced at Flynn for some extra help, but he sighed and shook his head at her.
“Can’t you just sit somewhere else for today, Cor?” He asked.
I could practically hear her heart-shattering.
What the hell was Flynn’s problem? Why was he treating her so poorly??
I heard in a low whisper from nearby, “Watch this…”
It was Justin talking to his girlfriend as he scooped some mashed potatoes on his spoon; he was about
to sling-shot it toward Corrine. I pressed my lips firmly together and before he released the potoes in
her direction, I grabbed the spoon from him, startling everybody at the table.
“Future Alphas and Lunas lead by example,” I told all 4 of them. “That level of disrespect won’t be
tolerated.”
“Justin, what is wrong with you?!” Luna Reilly Sinclaire, Justin’s mother, scolded. “We raised you better
than this.”

“You are 16 years old; you should know better than that,” his father, Alpha Lucas Sinclaire growled. “Sit
up straight and be a gentleman.”
Justin pouted but he wouldn’t dare argue with his father. Corrine looked like she wanted to burst into
tears.
“Sorry about my son, Alpha,” Alpha Lucas said to my father.
“Boys will be boys,” my father said in return, then gave Flynn a stern look.
I shook my head and walked toward Corrine, wrapping my arm through hers, I pulled her along with
me.
“Come on, Cor. You can sit with me,” I told her.

She seemed to have relaxed as we found our seats at the table. Corrine sat on one side of me, and
Brianna sat in front of me right beside her uncle Donovan, and on the other side of her was her mother
and Donovan’s sister, Anna.
My father sat at the head of the table with my mother seated beside him. At the opposite end of the
long dining room table, sat the Sinclair’s along with my brother and his girlfriend. There was an empty
seat beside me for Enzo who hadn’t shown up yet and on the other side of Enzo’s seat sat Beta Aiden
with his mate, Lucy, and their two small children. She was also expecting another child in a few months
which everybody is very excited about.
My mother had some of the packhouse kitchen staff serving the meal that she prepared just as Enzo
walked into the dining room. I could tell almost right away from the look he was giving me that
something was wrong.
He pulled his eyes from me and went straight to my father, lowering himself to his ear and speaking in
a low whisper so only my father could hear.
My mother noticed this as well and was frowning as my father’s body tensed. I swear, I thought I saw
the color drain from his face.
My father looked up at Enzo who also wore a serious expression, and then my father nodded to him.
“Please, enjoy your meals, everyone. Aiden and Donovan, can I see you for a minute?” My father said,
standing to his feet.
Aiden and Donavan gave one another identical concerned looks before standing to their feet; they
knew better than to ask any questions about anything in front of everybody.
“What’s going on?” My mother asked quickly.
“I’ll let you know when I know more information,” my father said to her, leaning down to kiss her gently.
“Enzo?” I asked before I could even stop myself.
I felt everybody’s eyes shifting to me, some in shock, some not so much. Enzo only gave me a warm
smile, but I could tell something was bothering him and it gave me an unsettled feeling in the pit of my
stomach.
“I’ll be back,” he assured me gently.
He turned away with my father and the others and they left the dining room. I felt tears prickling the
corner of my eyes before I could prevent them from coming. I suddenly felt cold, and a shiver crept up
my spine.
“Mom?” I asked, looking at her equally worried face.
“It’s okay…” she breathed, and I wasn’t sure if she was talking to me or reassuring herself. “Let’s just eat
our food.”
“Lila, I didn’t know you were that close to Alpha Enzo,” Anna said with a playful smile, trying to change
the subject.
“Mom…” Bri murmured, clearly embarrassed by her mother’s boldness.
“What? I’m observant,” Anna chuckled. “Is there a story there?” She proceeded to ask me.
“Yes, there is,” my mother answered for me, also eager to change the subject. “We were hoping
everyone would be together before we made this announcement though. It was the whole purpose of
this dinner.”
“It doesn’t matter anymore,” I said, moving my food around on my plate with my fork; I suddenly wasn’t
hungry anymore. In fact, I felt like I wanted to throw up. “But it’s true… Enzo and I are very close now
and that’s because he’s, my mate.”
Everybody, except for a few who already knew, gasped at the news.
“Oh, my goddess!!” Anna cooed. “Congratulations, Lila! This is definitely a good reason to celebrate.”
“I’m so happy for you dear,” Lucy breathed with a fond smile.
“When’s the Luna ceremony?” Alpha Lucas asked, which caused a slap to the arm from his wife.
“Don’t be rude,” she murmured.
“It’s not rude. It’s a genuine question,” he shrugged.
“Not until after her graduation,” my mother answered. “Enzo respects that she needs to finish her
schooling before thinking about marriage.”
“Well, when the time comes, you are going to be a great Luna, Lila,” Luna Reilly said kindly.
“Congrats, Lila,” Flynn said with a mouthful of food. But then he glared at Corrine. “Did you know?”
“I did,” she said without looking at him.
“And you didn’t tell me?” He seethed.
