My Professor Is My Alpha Mate
#Chapter 158 – Carriage Ride

Enzo's POV

Despite all the shit that's happened between Connie and me over the course of these months, I was glad she finally found her mate and it seemed she was willing to give him a real chance.

Lila seemed pleased too.

We made our way back towards the restaurant knowing that was where the carriage ride was going to start. When we arrived, I saw a stubby man standing near a pure white stallion with large brown eyes.

Attached to the horse was the white carriage with golden framing around the doors and matching seats with golden and white cushions.

This particular carriage ride around Monstro was called the royalty ride. I thought this would have been something Connie would enjoy, but it seems I had misjudged her.

Lila looked up at the large and gorgeous horse with wide eyes. She was in awe of the creature and the smile that tugged at her perfectly plump lips caused my heart to quicken its pace.

“May I pet it?” Lila asked the stubby man who gave her the nod of approval.

I watched as Lila, a bit too short to reach the horse's head, stood on her toes and reached her arm up to the horse's nose. She ran her slender fingers down the bridge of the nose and that smile only grew.

The way the sun was setting made Lila's features glow and sparkle; I stifled a smile of my own.

The horse snorted and closed its eyes, allowing Lila to pet it.

Of course, they already knew she existed. Everybody in the werewolf world knew about Bastien’s Volana daughter and wife. But nobody in their right mind would mess with Bastien’s family. However, if my father's followers knew that she was my mate... she would be in severe danger.

I couldn't let that happen. Which meant I needed to keep her at arm's length.

Having sex with her all these times while we were here was a mistake because of now her scent was on me.

Resisting her was going to be difficult though because of how beautiful she is. Not to mention this mate bond we had was intense and made my wolf nearly lose control every time we were around her.

One day, once I gained the respect and trust of the entire werewolf world when I rise my way to the top and become the number one Alpha and head of the Alpha committee, I will be able to take care of my father's followers and banish them for good. I will be able to protect my mother and the others and build their own community within Calypso. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

I would be able to protect my mate.

Not even Bastien has gained enough power to be able to do that.

He made Elysium safe for his family, it was time for me to make Calypso safe for mine, along with the rest of the world.

"Are you okay?” Lila's voice brought me out of my head.

I almost forgot where we were; she must have been worried since I had gone quiet.

“Yes,” I answered, I knew the less she knew the more she would be safe.

“This is a beautiful ride,” she breathed, closing her eyes, and soaking in the cool breeze that tickled her feature. “I'm glad we were able to do this together.”

Her words caused my throat to tighten.

This feeling she unintentionally gave me was like no other feeling I've ever had.

By the time we reached the city, the sun was completely set and was replaced with a dark sky and bright stars that danced above us. The moon shined its ray’s down, something Lila was soaking in as well.

I knew as a Volana, the moon gave her more energy than it would an average werewolf. I could see the strength and life illuminating around her and it caused her to smile as she stared up into the sky.

I wanted to reach over to her and hold her hand, but I refrained from doing so. I feared the physical touch would be too much for my wolf and me to handle.

The carriage soon stopped and that's when I heard the crackling of the fireworks. The fireworks lit up the sky and caused everything around us to light up in color. Lila was in awe over the display, as was everyone else who gathered around the busy city streets.

“Enzo?” I heard Lila's small voice from beside me. When I looked over, she was chewing on her bottom lip, and I found myself being drawn to her. Her cheeks grew pink, and she looked almost embarrassed. “I want you to kiss me..."
