My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Lila’s POV

“Is that Professor Enzo?” Becca asked, stepping beside me, and following my gaze to the window of an

incredibly fancy restaurant.

My heart clenched in a tight knot, and I felt Val lowering her head in sorrow as we watched our mate on

a date with another woman.

“Yes,” I said, my voice sounding incredibly far away.

Brianna gasped as she also saw what we were looking at.

“With Bethany Rochelle?!”

“They are interested in each other,” I said, my voice now sounding strained.

“We should get out of here and finish shopping. We didn’t get nearly enough clothes,” Bri said, trying to

avert my attention.

She draped an arm through mine and began pulling me away, but I couldn’t peel my eyes away from

the scene in front of me.

This was too painful; it felt like someone had punched me straight in the gut.

“Are you okay, Lila?” Becca asked with a timid frown.

That’s right; she doesn’t know that Enzo is my mate.

“Yeah,” I said to her, but I knew she didn’t believe me.

They both stared at me for a moment longer before Bri pulled me even harder.

“Come on,” she whispered for only my ears. “You don’t need to see this.”

I wasn’t sure I had the heart to continue this shopping spree. Every time I blinked; I would see Enzo

with

Bethany. It just hurt too much.

Val was in such agony that I didn’t think she would be able to stay in control. Her heart was so broken

and because of that, my heart was broken too. Even if I didn’t want Enzo as a mate, the mate bond

was

too real to ignore.

I was drawn to him whether I wanted to be or not. Val was drawn to his wolf.

I couldn’t explain this feeling other than sorrow.

We left the restaurant and went to another boutique. This one was filled with elegant gowns. I wasn’t

sure there was anything in this store that would be fit for my trip, but both of my friends were incredibly

eager to check it out.

Brianna picked out a gorgeous pink gown that she insisted I try on.

I have to admit, the gown made me feel like a princess.

I stared myself over in the mirror with a frown; the gown wrapped around my body so elegantly and

pushed up my breasts to make them appear much bigger. It expanded in silky fabrics around my waist

and fell naturally around my feet.

The dress brought out the blonde in my hair as I let it out of its usual ponytail and watched as it flowed

evenly around my body.

“You look beautiful!” Brianna cooed as I stepped out of the dressing room.

“Oh, my goddess. That dress was made for you!” Becca agreed.

Even with their kind compliments, I found it difficult to smile knowing that Enzo was with someone else.

But I tried my best to force a smile; a smile that Bri knew right away was fake.

“I don’t know when I’ll ever wear this dress,” I admitted; though, I liked it very much.

“It doesn’t matter,” Becca said with a shrug. “You’ll have it just in case.”

Once we were done in this boutique, I insisted that we went home. I didn’t have it in me to continue this

shopping spree and besides, I had enough clothes.

“But we were having so much fun,” Becca said with a frown. “Something changed when you saw

Professor Enzo. Are you sure you’re, okay?”

I opened my mouth to respond, but Bri beat me to it.

“She said she’s fine,” Brianna said, wrapping an arm around me. “You should go back to your dorm

room. I’ll walk with Lila.”

Becca frowned, staring between the two of us. I said nothing; I knew Bri just wanted to be alone with

me.

“Are you sure?’ She asked, raising her brows at me.

“I’d like to hang out with Brianna alone,” I admitted. “It’s been a while since we had quality time

together with just the two of us.”

Becca sighed, but she didn’t argue.

“Okay…” she said with uncertainly in her voice. “I’ll see you later.”

Soon, it was just Brianna and me.

“I can’t believe your mate is on a date with some other she-wolf,” Brianna hissed, folding her arms

across her chest.

I knew she was pissed, and she hated seeing me like this. I lowered my gaze, trying to keep the tears

from falling out of my eyes.

“It’s not fair. We need to teach him a lesson! Maybe you should go on a date too! I know Brody likes

you and—”

“That’s not the answer,” I said, stopping her words. “Plus, I can’t do that to Brody. It would hurt him.”

Brianna sighed.

“Why do you always have to be so good?” She asked, pouting. “But you can’t just do nothing. It’s not

fair to you.”

“I don’t know what else I can do, Bri…” I said, my voice no longer sounding like my own as I pushed

away the tears that so desperately wanted to escape my eyes.

“I just don’t understand how he can do that when he knows he has a mate…”

“He doesn’t want a mate,” I reminded her, meeting her eyes with my tear-filled ones. “He doesn’t want

me.”

“Then, why hasn’t he rejected you?” Bri asked, now placing her hands on her hips and cocking her

head

at me.

“I don’t know…” I admitted. “Maybe he likes having a backup plan in case he ends up alone.”

As much as it pained me to say those words, I felt they were most likely the truth.

I hated this feeling, and I hated how much pain Val was in.

I pressed the palm of my hand to my chest to provide her with some sort of comfort, so she knows that

I’m there for her. But she stayed silent, lowering her head as her heart continued to break.

Third person POV

Bethany sat across from the handsome Enzo; she had to admit that she didn’t think he would agree to

this meeting, especially at such a fancy restaurant. But she has a way with words and she knew Enzo

wouldn’t be able to resist helping someone in need, regardless of their past mistakes.

She ordered baked Salmon and a glass of wine, while he ordered steak, cooked rare, and a glass of

wine

as well.

“Why exactly did you want to meet with me?” Enzo asked, eyeing her carefully from across the table.

They were in a secluded area, as requested, near a window overlooking the city. This was Bethany’s

favorite restaurant and her favorite seat.

“Because I owe you an apology,” Bethany said, gazing over at him. “I acted childishly. I don’t expect

you

to forgive me. But I wanted to treat you to a meal to show you my gratitude for your hospitality.”

“I don’t really think I’m the one you should be apologizing to,” Enzo said, keeping his tone emotionless.

She was used to his coldness; she found it incredibly attractive. She needed a man who was cold and

stern at times… yet tender and loving the other times. She knew Enzo was capable of both.

“I will send Deanna my sincerest apologies as well,” she assured him. “I will also reach out to that Lila

girl. I’m afraid I also treated her terribly and I just feel so awful.”

Enzo didn’t say anything, he stared at her from across the table with a face she couldn’t quite read.

Soon, the waiter came and placed their wine glasses before them.

He filled the glasses and placed the bottle on the table.

“Is there anything else I can get you before your meals arrive?” The waiter asked, staring between the

two of them.

“Water,” they both said at the same time.

This caused Bethany to chuckle and Enzo to feel annoyance, but he didn’t make that known to her.

The waiter nodded and left the area, leaving them alone once again.

“I will make it up to you all,” Bethany said. “I really am sorry, Alpha Enzo.”

“I appreciate the apology,” he finally said after a long pause.

He took a sip of his wine and cleared his throat.

“I’m going to use the restroom. I’ll be back,” he said, standing to his feet.

Bethany watched as he disappeared toward the bathroom.

She smirked.

This was her opportunity; the real reason she asked him here.

She reached into her purse and grabbed a drug that she knew would cause him to be so intoxicated

that he would be nothing but submissive to her.

She was going to get him into bed and have her way with him.

Then, she was going to have his baby
