My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Chapter 304 A Little Forest Play

Lila’s POV

The drive back to the packhouse was quiet. I was in a daze for most of it; still trying to wrap my mind around what I had just found out. Despite everything that’s happened this week, Alpha Jonathan still wanted to hold a banquet.

I thought he would have canceled it by now. But apparently not.

Enzo parked the car in his usual parking spot outside the packhouse, but he kept the car running. We both just sat there for a long while; neither of us said anything. I don’t think either of us knew what to say.

That is until I could no longer take the silence.

“Does he really expect us to attend this banquet under these circumstances?” I asked, peering over at him.

He was quiet for a moment longer before sighing.

“No… he expects you to go to this banquet,” he said; I could see the aggravation in his eyes.

I had forgotten that Enzo wasn’t even invited to this banquet. A nervous knot formed in the pit of my stomach. I didn’t like the idea of attending this thing without him, but I knew I wasn’t going to be alone. My father would be there, along with my mother and Beta Ethan. Also, my friends would be there as well.

I didn’t have to worry about anything bad happening as long as I was surrounded by people who loved me. But I wasn’t going to be around the one person I wanted the most. My wolf whimpered at the thought of being away from him, even if it was only for a few hours.

She pawed at me, wanting to get out and be entangled with his wolf. From the way he was breathing, I could tell he wanted the same thing.

“Want to go for a run?” He then asked, looking over at me.

I couldn’t help but smile at him; I wanted more than anything to go for a run. I nodded eagerly, trying to contain my excited wolf.

He turned off his car and we stepped outside. He took me by the hand, and I felt instantly entranced by him. His hand was so warm and sent a wave of electric chills throughout my body. Goosebumps formed on my flesh, and I breathed in his incredible scent. He smelled of melted caramel and it made my mouth.

water.

I wanted to bask in his sweetness and get lost in his arms.

He traced my neckline and ran his thumb across the mark that decorated the back of my shoulder- blade his mark.

I often thought about marking his as well; it wasn’t unknown for the female mates to mark their male mates. It was more common in today’s generation than it was in the past, but it was uncommon for an Alpha to be marked by their Lunas for future Lunas. But my wolf wanted to mark him; she wanted to claim him as he claimed us. She wanted to mark her territory and make other she-wolves fully aware that he belonged to us.
