I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Lila’s POV

“How was class this morning?” Enzo asked at the other end of the phone.

I sat in my room, lying on my bed, trying to wrap my mind around everything that had happened this

morning. Xander broke my arm and then somehow got everyone to forget about the incident. I couldn’t

help but think that Sarah had something to do with that.

Suddenly Scott’s warning about Sarah didn’t seem far off.

Of course, I didn’t say any of this to Enzo. It would only cause him to worry, and he had enough to

worry about. Xander was obviously looking for something, whether it was a fight or something else, he

was looking for it.

This was a battle I was going to have to face on my own.

My heart ached though as I spoke to Enzo. It’s been a little over a day since I last heard his voice and

two days since I felt his touch. I knew this distance was going to be hard, but I wasn’t prepared for how

hard it would be. Being marked by him only made our mate bond stronger.

“It was okay,” I murmured. “I wish you were still the combat and shifting Professor though. I’m not a fan

of this new one.”

“You know why I can’t be though…” he said, almost sadly.

“Do you miss it?”

“I miss you.”

“I mean, do you miss teaching,” I said, a smile tugging at my lips.

“My pack needs me right now,” he told me gently. “Or else I’d try to return and continue teaching.

Being away from you is hard. But with Paul and his crew still out there, I don’t want to take any

chances.

They’ve terrorized my pack enough while I was at the academy last year.”

“I understand,” I said to him. “How’s your mom?”

“Better,” he said. “The doctors say she should be ready to return home in a couple of days.”

He sounded unsure though.

“What’s wrong?” I asked. “Isn’t that a good thing?”

“Of course, it is. I just don’t know how I feel about her returning to the rogue territory.”

“The only reason she got hurt was because she left her village barrier,” I reminded him. “I understand

why she doesn’t want to leave her home. Those wolves have been her family for a long time. She

doesn’t want to abandon them. Volana’s don’t abandon their families.”

“Lila?” I heard my name being called from outside my door.

It was Rachel.

“We are going to the dining hall for dinner. You want to come?”

“I’ll be out in a minute,” I called back.

“Dinner?” Enzo asked.

“Yeah. Can I call you later?” I asked.

“Of course,” he said in return. “I love you.”

I smiled at his words; I was never going to get used to this.

“I love you too,” I replied just before hanging up the phone.

Rachel and Becca were waiting for me in the living room when I left my room. They both gave me soft

smiles. I’m assuming Becca caught Rachel up on everything.

“Ready?” Rachel asked.

I nodded and together we left the room. When we got downstairs, it was flooded with other female

students. Some of them were occupying the couches and watching their favorite shows.

Some were cooking dinner in the shared kitchen. Eating in the dining hall wasn’t mandatory. We had

the option to eat at our dorms as well. Each dormitory had a shared kitchen that was kept stalked at all

times.

Some students who were culinary majors would cook meals for themselves and their roommates. The

kitchen always smelled delicious when I passed by.

I caught a glimpse of Sarah with a couple of her friends. They were talking and most likely gossiping

about other students. They were chuckling amongst themselves and applying makeup to one another.

Sarah looked a little better than she did when I saw her earlier, but I’m assuming it’s because she’s

wearing a mound of makeup now.

I managed to catch her eyes as I walked by her though and they narrowed at me. I got an icy chill down

my spine as our eyes locked. I knew she did something to the other students to erase their memories.

She did something to Becca.

Scott was right about her; she had unexplained powers.

Her top lip curled up as she glared at me.

“What the fuck are you looking at, freak?” She hissed, causing her friends to glance in my direction as

well.

They chuckled and turned away just as quickly.

I just rolled my eyes and made my way out of our section of the dorm down the long spiral stairs and

into the main hall.

As we got outside, I saw a few students running, almost frantically, in the same direction.

“What’s going on?” Becca asked, staring at the running students as well.

“Looks like everyone is gathering over there,” Rachel said, pointing in the direction of a bunch of

students. “They are making a circle I think.”

“Do you think someone’s getting in a fight?” Becca asked.

“We should check it out,” I said quickly, an uneasy feeling forming in the pit of my stomach.

I didn’t wait for them to respond; I ran in the same direction as everyone else. They were chanting and

riling up whatever was going on.

It was definitely a fight.

I shoved my way through the crowd until I reached the center.

There were two girls screaming at each other. I recognized both of them from previous classes.

“You knew I liked him, and you stole him, you bitch!” One of them hissed.

“Obviously he didn’t like you!” The other roared. “Maybe he didn’t like your ugly snaggle tooth!”

“Oh, I’ll show you exactly what this snaggle tooth can do!”

Her wolf’s canines appeared, and she growled loudly, shaking the ground under us and causing almost

everyone to take a step back. She shifted into her large black wolf, another loud growl escaping her

throat. The other one shifted soon after; her wolf was dark brown and equally as big.

They began to walk in a circle around one another, waiting for the other to attack. Everybody was

holding their breath as they watched the two wolves. A wolf attack, even with two simple she-wolves,

could be dangerous for anyone around them.

These tend to get incredibly violent.

Before I could convince myself not to, I shifted into my wolf and sprung toward them.

“Lila!” I heard Becca yelling from behind me, but I pushed her voice out of my head and ran until I was

in the middle of the two wolves.

Val wasn’t afraid to get in the middle of a wolf fight; in fact, she welcomed the challenge.

Val’s growl overpowered both their growls at once, making them both fall silent.

“Get the hell out of my way,” the black wolf growled. “I’m not afraid to go through you to get to that

bitch.”

“Dito,” the brown wolf exclaimed, snarling as she glared at her opponent.

“You both should be ashamed of yourselves. Fighting on school grounds over a guy who doesn’t

respect either of you. You are supposed to be friends. How dare you allow someone to come between

you. You could both be expelled and for what?”

“It’s not like you’d understand Miss Goody,” the black one hissed, her eyes forming small slits as she

now glared at me.

“You have no idea what it’s like to be in love,” the other one agreed in a low growl.

“I know that love doesn’t make two friends fight like this. I know it’s not supposed to hurt you on

purpose. If he truly loved either of you, he wouldn’t put you through this.”

“Get out of my way, Lila,” the brown one growled. “I’m not afraid to fight her.”

I growled loudly, echoing through the school grounds, and shaking the ground more fiercely than they

had previously.

“Then you’ll need to fight me first,” I said firmly, glaring at her. I caught her eyes and held them. “If you

dare.”

She fell silent as she stared at me.

I felt Val’s powers surfacing just as my emotions began to rise and I took a deep breath to steady them.

The brown wolf kept her eyes on mine, and they were wide and alert. I knew my eyes were probably

glowing as I looked at her.

“Calm yourself down,” I ordered. “Go for a walk.”

Her eyes softened and she took a step back. She bowed her head and turned away; to everyone’s

amazement, she did just as I asked.

I turned back to the black one.

“If he truly loved you, he wouldn’t have hurt you like this. He will hurt her, just as he did to you,” I told

her, voice lowering and my eyes locking onto hers.

I saw the pain in her gaze.

“I turn 18 soon…” she whispered. “I thought he could be my mate.”

“A friendship is more important than a man. Don’t lose a friend over this,” I told her gently. “Take a walk

and calm yourself down.”

She bowed her head to me and turned away; I watched as she disappeared through the silent and

shocked crowd.

I turned back to my friends who were staring at me with wide eyes; as was everybody else.

“Holy shit…” I heard someone breathe. “She just got in the middle of a wolf fight.”

“Lila is truly a badass.”
