My Professor Is My Alpha Mate
#Chapter 89 – The fight to save Lila part 1

Lila's POV

"You can't be serious,” I said, staring at Brody who was barely hanging onto life. “He'll die.”

“I want to see everything you can do. Show me,” Robert said in a darkening tone.

“I can do that without Brody,” I said, staring up at him. “I won't hurt him.”

“I wasn't asking. You're making this quite difficult for me.”

“I don't care,” I said through my teeth. “Find another way. I won't hurt him. I will turn my powers on you the first chance I get and show you what I can really do.”

I could see his swallowing a lump in his throat as he stared around my incredibly serious face. I clenched my fists, feeling the power surging through my body. This room was giving me my abilities back and I could nearly feel my wolf waking as we spoke.

She was confused and hadn't quite gotten her voice back, but she was there, and I was ready to use every part of me to get both Brody and me out of here.

However, before I could do anything, someone came up behind me and placed cuffs around my wrists, which instantly weakened me. As fast as my wolf was returning to me, she was already gone. “Punish him,” Robert muttered, turning away from me. “Then, bring him back to the cell.”

I let out a scream as a couple more men came out of the shadow region and towards Brody. I was being held in place so I could watch as they beat Brody till he was nothing but a bloody and bruised mess.

Tears sprang from my eyes, and I kept myself from sobbing by biting hard onto my bottom lip. My entire heart shattered as they continued to beat him. He was completely unconscious; my only hope was that he felt no pain.

“You'll what? Kill me? You can try, but we both know you aren't strong enough to defeat me. You've tried before, remember?”

“I was younger then,” I hissed. “I'm much stronger now.”

“So am I...” Cyrus said with a sly grin.

Soon, he was lunging at me. I was ready to dodge his attack, but Bastien came out of nowhere and tackled him to the ground. I could tell Cyrus was taken by surprise because he didn't notice Bastien there, but he soon regrouped his thoughts and began to fight back.

Other rogues started to fight again as well.

Not before long, I heard the buzzing in my mind and knew a mindlink was coming through. "Enzo..."

It was Lila; she sounded so far away, even though it was in my mind.

I froze for a moment.

“Lila?” I mindlinked her back. “Where are you?”

She didn't respond, but the mindlink was still there so I knew she was still listening.

"What the actual fuck!” I heard the voice of Cyrus roaring from a short distance.

When I glanced in his direction, I saw dark shadows emerging from the ground; they were huge and morphed into different shapes. I could see the pure fear in Cyrus’ eyes as these shadows clouded his vision.

The other rogues paused the fighting as well and stared at the shadows that also began to consume them.

I glanced over at Bastien who had a glimmer of humor in his eyes for a brief moment before that determination returned to his face.

We both knew this was Lila’s doing.

Bastien and I exchanged similar looks before we headed to the chapel.

He knew this place way better than I did and knew exactly where the underground dungeon was. We ran down a long corridor until we reached a wooden door in the back corner. We used our bodies to break through the door frame and race down the dark stares, emerging ourselves with the shadows.

I didn't hear any talking, which meant whoever was supposed to stand guard was probably preoccupied with something else.

The dungeon was made up of multiple cells and the entire place reeked of mildew and blood. I had a moment of panic thinking it could be Lila. Until we reached the cell and froze when I saw who was lying in a puddle of blood and hardly breathing.

Brody.
