Chapter 293 Don’t Kill Him

Lila’s POV

+15 Free Coins

When I heard the sirens, I knew something was seriously wrong. The last time I heard sirens there was a murder. My heart fell into my stomach as I watched Becca rush to the window of our dorm and peer down into the parking lot.

“There’s an ambulance and a couple of cop cars,” she said, peeing back at me with a worried frown. “I wonder if they found somebody else.”

I felt like I was about to get sick.

She looked back down at the parking lot, and I heard her gasp lightly.

“I see your dad and Professor Enzo,” she said, pointing to the lot.

I jumped to my feet, rushing toward her.

“Are they okay?” I asked, feeling a rise of panic.

“Yes,” she answered. “They are talking to Alpha Jonathan and Headmaster Prescott.”

I peered down into the lot and sure enough I saw my father and mate speaking with Headmaster Prescott and Alpha Jonathan. I could hardly see their faces, but I knew from their body language alone that something was seriously wrong.

EMTs were rushing toward one of the outside entrances of the vampire den. My heart fell deep into my stomach.

What could have happened in the vampire den?

The cops were following them into the building as well without even a single look in the headmaster’s direction. Alpha Jonathan turned away from them and walked into the vampire den as well.

Before I could say anything more to Becca about what we were watching, we both nearly jumped out of our skin as we heard someone knocking on the door.

I turned to face the door, feeling my heart pounding against my ribcage. We both shared identical frightened looks before we gained enough courage to move from the window and go to the door.

When I opened it, I was surprised to see a very tear–filled Eileen Carter standing before us.

“Miss Carter…..” Becca was the first to speak. “Is everything okay?”

She looked at the two of us for a long while without speaking; it felt like an eternity before she actually decided to speak.

“It’s Rachel…” she said hoarsely.

“Rachel?” I asked, furrowing my brows together. “She’s been in her room all night.”
