My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Chapter 274 Suspicious

Enzo’s POV

Lila met my eyes, and I knew I wouldn’t have to say anything. She quickly rushed into my room and sealed the door behind her, turning off the light in the process.

That’s my girl, I thought to myself.

She was just in time too because as soon as my bedroom door shut, the front door swung open and Alpha Jonathan came storming into my faculty house.

“Were you talking to somebody in here?” He asked, looking around with a suspicious look in his eyes.

“No,” I said, furrowing my brows together. “Well, I mean yes, I was on the phone with my Beta, letting him know what was going on,” I lied. “I thought you were returning to your pack tonight?

“I am.” he said, eyeing me carefully. “I came by to grab some of the stuff I left in the guest room while I waited for them to fetch my daughter.”

“I see.” I said, trying to remain as casual as possible. “Is there anything you’d like me to do for you?”

He looked me over once more before turning away and stalking toward the guest room, which was dangerously close to my bedroom. He paused before entering the room, but I noticed he was staring at my bedroom door with a quizzical look.

My heart weighed heavily in my chest, and I thought for a second that he could smell Lila lurking behind. the door. Or maybe hear her breathing. I could feel her nervousness and the fact that she was struggling to keep her breathing light and non-existent.

“Do you usually keep your bedroom door closed when you aren’t inside of it?” He then asked, turning to mc.

I raised my brows at his question; it was a strange question. I have been keeping my bedroom door closed. a lot lately; especially since he’s been staying with me. So, I didn’t have to lie to answer him.

“Yes,” I said. “Usually,”

I didn’t think he was going to believe me at first, but then he turned back to the guest room and went inside. I let out a breath of air, wanting to lean against the wall to support my body but suddenly felt like it weighed a ton.

I could feel Lila’s relief as well. I wouldn’t be careless and mindlink her while Alpha Jonathan was here. Opening a link between the two of us could make him sense her and that wasn’t a risk I was willing to take. Alphas could usually sense when a mindlink conversation was going on around them.

I heard the faint sounds of a phone ringing inside the guest room and then Alpha’s Jonathan’s voice answering it.

“Yes?”

He paused, I tuned in with my Alpha hearing and could hear Gam ma Alex on the other end.

“I was told to bring your daughter to you, Alpha. Did you still want me to do that?” He asked.

“Yes. Bring her to my limo in the front parking lot. My driver will assist her once you get her there. I need

to speak once more with one of the officers and the headmaster and then I’ll be right there to bring her home.”

“She wants to know when she will be returning to the school,” Alex said, and I could hear the nervousness in his tone while speaking to Alpha Jonathan.

Jonathan was very intimidating, so I couldn’t blame the kid. But he was also not Alex’s Alpha, so he didn’t have much authority over him. There wasn’t much need for Alex to be too frightened; then again, Jonathan never cared about who was the Alpha of whom.

He always got what he wanted.

“Tell her we will discuss it once we are home,” Alpha Jonathan seethed through his teeth.

Then, he hung up without another word. Several long minutes later, Jonathan emerged from the room with a small bag.

“I’ll be returning tomorrow. I won’t be staying the night here for a while. But I’m helping in the investigation, so I’ll be on campus quite a bit,” he said, walking toward the door. “We might need some extrà assistance in the unforeseen future, so keep your phone on. I’m sure Prescott will be in touch.”

“I’ll be here,” I said, keeping my voice even..

He paused at the front door and looked at me one last time. I stared back at him, unblinking.

“Was there something else?” I asked after a long stretch of silence.

Another heartbeat of silence and then he finally shook his head, turning back toward the door.

“No,” he said in a dark tone. “I’ll be seeing you, Alpha.”
