My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Enzo’s POV

“Today, I’ll be teaching you how to shift in the air,” I announced to the class of students. “It’s all in the

legs. We kick off from the ground and then begin the shift right when the legs are being pushed off the

ground.”

I demonstrated with ease, and I was met with applause.

“This is used mainly for sneak attacks. I want you to try and sneak attack your partners. Trade-off each

round.”

Everyone went with their partners to a different section of the arena for some space. Lila stood in the

distance, waiting for me because I’m her partner.

We hadn’t spoken since my confession at the art show, and I was hoping we wouldn’t have to talk

about

this again. It was a moment of weakness on my part, and it wasn’t something I was going to allow to

happen again.

Connie was right the other day when she said I needed to stay away from Lila. It was for her own good.

But her tight yoga pants and a tank top that she wore, hugged her body and fit around her every curve

so perfectly that I found it hard to resist her.

Plus, I promised I’d be her partner for the remainder of this semester because I’m the only one who

could handle any power overload she may have.

“I’ll keep my back turned, you can attack me,” I said to her, turning my back toward her.

I could tell she was gazing at me and frowning, but I wasn’t going to give in to her wishes. I had to

brush the thought of her out of my mind.

Before I could think anymore, I felt the weight of her wolf pushing me to the ground. It caught me off

guard and I fell to the ground quickly.

I turned around to face her wolf and saw her pure white wolf snarling at me. She pressed her paws to

my chest and kept me pinned. I felt the warmth of her wolf’s breath on my skin, causing goosebumps to

form on my flesh.

I was so surprised by her that it took me a moment to register what had just happened.

Then, I saw the humor in her odd eyes as she shifted back into her human form.

She chuckled.

“Did I scare you?” She asked between a fit of giggles.

“No,” I said, shaking my head as I stood to my feet. “You just caught me off guard.”

“Oh, is that so?” She asked, rolling her eyes but the humor never left her face. “Then I guess we should

do that again then.”

“I guess we should,” I said in return.

This time, I wasn’t going to let her catch me off guard. I rose one brow up at her and gave her a smirk

as I turned my back toward her.

I counted each step she took; she was taking her time, tiptoeing around me almost. I could hear her

light breathing and the chewing on her bottom lip as she contemplated her next move.

Soon, I sensed her leaping and shifting. I quickly turned my body to face her wolf just as she pushed

me

to the ground. I would be honest, I was trying to counterattack, but she was able to get to me first.

I didn’t fight her as I went down though. Her wolf was back to breathing heavily in my face. I saw the

humor in her eyes just as she shifted back into her human form.

She was laughing.

“I got you again, Professor,” she laughed as she got off me.

I sat up, gazing up at her.

“It appears you did,” I said in return. “You are getting quite good.”

“I guess I have you to thank for that,” she said, a faint smile playing on her lips.

The class was almost over, and students were starting to get their things ready for leave for their next

classes. Lila took her time collecting her own things and soon, it was only the two of us left in the

arena.

I wondered if she had planned it this way.

“Can we talk for a minute?” Lila asked, stepping toward me as I grabbed my own belongings.

I frowned down at her; the last thing I wanted to talk about was my confession to her. I wasn’t sure how

to explain myself or how to get out of this.

But I didn’t have to.

Connie had opened the doors to the arena and ran inside before I could utter a single word. It took Lila

by surprise as well and I couldn’t mistake the disappointed look on her face upon seeing Connie.

“Enzo, you promised you’d take me to lunch this afternoon,” Connie said, folding her arms across her

chest. “What’s keeping you?”

She was only saying this to get me away from Lila. I never agreed to such a thing. But I didn’t argue

with

her.

“I’ll be there in a minute,” I said, grabbing the rest of my stuff.

“Hurry!” She huffed.

“We’ll just talk another time,” Lila breathed sadly as she grabbed her stuff and ran out of the arena.

Connie rose her brows and stared directly at me.

“That didn’t look like you were avoiding her,” Connie muttered. “You’re lucky I was walking by.”

“Class just ended and she’s my student,” I said, shaking my head at her. “It’s unavoidable.”

“Staying with her after class is avoidable though,” Connie said in return.

“Not if she has a question about her lessons.”

“I doubt it was her lessons she wanted to talk about,” Connie said, her frown deepening. “I was serious

though. I’m hungry; take me to lunch.”

“Fine, give me a second,” I said just as my phone started to ring.

I looked at the screen when I saw Bastien’s name.

“Hello?” I said into the phone.

“Hey, Alpha Enzo. How are you doing?” Bastien asked.

“I’m well,” I said in return.

I didn’t forget about our last conversation when he asked me to take care of his daughter if anything

were to happen to him. The conversation felt weird to me, and I wasn’t sure what he was trying to say.

But I agreed with his request anyways.

We haven’t talked about it since, and I didn’t really care to talk anymore about it. The less I talked to

Bastien about Lila the better. I don’t need him to be suspicious of anything.

“I’m sorry to bother you, I was hoping to catch you after class,” Bastien said. “But I wanted to talk to you

about Lila.”

Of course, he did.

“What can I help you with?” I asked, trying to keep my tone even.

“I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Lila is going away for a few months during the summer,” Bastien

began.

My heart fell into the pit of my stomach.

This was the first time I’ve heard of this. What did he mean?

“No,” I answered. “I didn’t hear a thing about that. Where is she going?”

“Oh, I assumed she would have told you…” Bastien said, almost hesitantly now. “She’s going to Monro.

She has the opportunity to actually attend that school if the founder likes her portfolio. But I guess

Cassidy-Ann is going there for a conference and invited Lila to go along with her.”

I could feel my blood beginning to boil. When did Lila find this out? Was she planning on telling me at

all?

“But I’m calling because I want you to go with her and protect her while she’s there.”
