My Professor Is My Alpha Mate
#Chapter 10 – Meeting my wolf.

Lila's POV

Valentine bowed her head to me, a smile playing on her long mouth and her white, razor-sharp, teeth being revealed. She was big and glorious; I had never seen anything like her before. This place was so life-like and incredible as well. I could practically feel the mist of the ocean on my features and the light breeze brushing through my hair.

It felt so freeing as I could finally breathe. There was no pain and there were no anxieties. It was just happiness and love all around me. Most importantly, there was my wolf right in front of my eyes. “Valentina...” I whispered, running my hand down her soft fur, allowing it to tickle my palms. I had no idea having a wolf would feel like this. I already loved her so much.

“You are so beautiful, Lila. I'm so glad to finally meet you. I've been waiting to appear for some time now..." she paused. “But I couldn't...”

It was surreal; her mouth wasn’t moving when she spoke, but I could hear her words echoing in my mind.

“The wolfbane,” I told her. “It was keeping you locked away.”

I wanted to say more to her; I wanted to spend more time with her. But I felt a cold cloth being draped over my head, taking me away from the warmth of this beach. Darkness began to close around, and my wolf started to disappear. Panic set in and I reached my hand out to grasp for her, but I only got a fist full of air.

“Valentina!” I cried to her.

But it was too late; my eyes opened, and I was gasping for air, sitting up in the infirmary bed. The nurse was standing over me, looking startled.

“I'm sorry, what did you say?” The nurse asked, appearing worried. “You passed out; you were getting warm. I thought you might be getting a fever.”

Tears burned in my eyes.

She went to me with a phone; I knew my father was on the other end.

"Hi dad,” I said cheerfully.

“My daughter finally got her wolf!” My dad boasted. “Oh, Lila bean. This is incredible news. We need to celebrate. Your mother wants to make dinner this coming weekend. Would you be able to come home?”

“I can make that happen,” I told him

“I'll have Professor Enzo drive you again. Perhaps he can join us.”

My eyes widened at his suggestion; before I could protest, my mother was on the phone.

"Oh, Lila! How does it feel? What is her name? What does she look like?”

“She looks like your wolf,” I chuckled. “Snow-white fur and she has my eyes. She's so beautiful, mom and she’s kind and gentle. Her name is Valentina.”

"What a beautiful name. This is going to be the beginning of a beautiful journey for you, my love.”

I couldn't help but smile at her words

“l know..."

“You can't shift yet though. You'll need to wait until you are home. The process is incredibly painful and you'll need the support of your pack to get through it,” she warned. “I love you so much. I'll see you soon!”

“Bye, mom,” I said, hanging up the phone.

I handed the phone back to the nurse and thanked her.

"You can rest for a bit more before you leave if you'd like,” she told me.

“I think I'm okay now. My headache is gone. I'm going to return to my dorm.”

I couldn't wait to tell my roommate Rachel about this; I also wanted to tell my new friend, and combat partner, Becca. I slid out of bed and started putting my shoes back on when I smelled a familiar and strong scent roaming through the air.

I could see Val sniffing the air through my mind's eyes; she was loving the scent, basking in it and ravishing every detail of it. She could smell the marshmallows and the cinnamon, and it was making her mouth water.

“What is that glorious scent?” She breathed as she continued sniffing the air.

I already knew who it was before he entered the infirmary. His eyes were darker than I had ever seen them before. His breathing was rash, and I could see his wolf's fangs threatening his lips. A low growl escaped through the dept of his throat. It almost looked like he was losing control of his wolf. What was his problem? And why couldnt I look away from him?

“Lila...” Val breathed in awe; I had a feeling she was about to answer my question. “That's... that's our mate...”
