My Professor Is My Alpha Mate
#Chapter 210 Sister Time

Lila's POV

I looked at Enzo with a worried look, but he didn't appear as worried.

"How much do you know about the new professor at Lila’s school? The one who took over for me?” Enzo asked in return,

My father’s frown deepened.

“The school board did the hiring of this one,” he answered. “I don't know much. Professor Xander, right?”

Enzo nodded.

“I don't trust him,” Enzo confessed to my father. “He's harder on Lila than the other students and I believe it's because she's a Volana. He gave Lila a protein shake that makes her feel unwell.”

My father's eyes widened as he looked at me.

“Unwell how?”

I took a deep breath to steady my rapid heartbeat before answering. I knew the look on my father's face well and whatever I said next wasn't going to sit well with him.

"When I drink it, it hurts my throat and mouth,” I told him. “It also makes me feel a bit weak. My wolf doesn't like it either.”

My father narrowed his eyes and then looked back at Enzo.

“Wolfsbane?”

“We are thinking so,” Enzo confirmed. “I have my researcher testing it as we speak. The problem is it's laced with magic and only a witch can undo it."

My father leaned back in his seat as he listened to Enzo’s words.

"Who is this witch that you are using? Do you trust them?” My father asked, eyeing Enzo carefully. Flynn and Corrine shared a room, so it made sense as to why she didn't want to hang out in there. For the rest of the afternoon, we spent time in my room and Corrine showed off her pretty dress like a fashion show. We also did a lot of gossiping and catching up.

Within an hour, I heard a knock on my door that brought me to my feet. When I opened the door, I was pleased to see Bri standing before me, but then my face fell when I saw her red and swollen eyes.

She looked so broken; like she’s been crying for days.

“Where the hell have you been?” She seethed, through her unshed tears. “I've been trying to reach you for days.”

“I'm so sorry. But I just started school and—"

"And she’s been spending time with her mate,” Corrine said folding her arms across her chest. “She doesn't have to be by her phone 24/7."

I was surprised by Corrine’s boldness in speaking to Bri because she was usually so soft-spoken. “Cor, can you give us a minute?” I asked. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Corrine nodded and stood to her feet.

“I'll see you at dinner,” she said just before leaving the room.

“Bri, what’ happened?” I asked, grabbing her arm, and pulling her toward the bed.

"Alex rejected me...” she said hoarsely.

My eyes widened and my heart went straight into my stomach.

"What?!" I gasped. “He rejected you?? I thought you were super happy.”

“I thought so too,” she breathed. “But I guess he only wanted me because I was born to a family of warriors. But then he got the opportunity to be with the daughter of an Alpha and he left me...” “Oh, Brianna, I'm so sorry,” I cried, wrapping my arms around her. “I should have been here for you. I'm so sorry..."

“I haven't heard from my wolf in days...” she said as tears fell from her eyes. “But I can still feel her... she’s so hurt, Lila...”

“It's going to be okay...” I breathed, holding her tighter. “We are going to get through this, Bri. I promise.”

I let her cry for a long while.

We talked for a bit longer and I even got her to smile a little, though I knew nothing could take away her pain right now.

But soon, my mother was calling us for dinner. We went downstairs with my hand firmly holding hers.

Enzo's POV

“Alpha...” I heard the mindlink of my beta coming through; he sounded strained.

Selene had just informed us that dinner was ready and we were heading to the dining room. I let Bastien go ahead of me as soon as I heard Ethan's voice.

“What is it?"

“I just got word from the gammas that were sent to escort Miss Hazel...” he went on to say. “They were attacked.” t

My heart fell deep into my stomach.

“Attacked?”

“Yes..." Ethan Answered. “Alpha... Hazel was taken.”
