My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Chapter 0506 I Lila’s POV “They found somebody dead?” I asked in a hoarse whisper, turning to face Enzo who had a grave look on his face. I knew from his face alone that it was true and suddenly my heart hurt. I had to lean against him to support the weight of my body before I completely fell over.

I felt dizzy, like wanted to pass out at any moment and my breathing became incredibly shallow.

Enzo didn’t answer me at first; he only looked beyond the area and at the many police cars that were parked in the lot, along with the ambulance.

“Like a student?” I continued to ask, staring at him still and unable to look away.

“Yes; a student,” he finally answered, audibly swallowing.

“Who?” I'wasn’t sure I wanted to know the answer, but the knot in my stomach wasn’t going to leave this alone.

“I'm not sure,” he said shaking his head. “I should have reported it sooner.” “You knew about it?” I asked, furrowing my brows together.

I stepped out of his strong embrace and peered up at him.

“I smelled something off earlier,” he admitted, meeting my eyes. “It smelled like rotting flesh; it was disgusting. Made me nearly throw up.
