I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Lila’s POV

I woke up feeling an overwhelming sense of comfort and warmth.

I had never felt this relaxed before and it took me a minute to figure out why. As I opened my eyes, I

wiggled against something, and his arms tightened around my body as his face nuzzled in my hair.

I froze completely when I realized that it was a man.

“Not just a man…” Val breathed lovingly. “Our mate.”

Enzo?

I nearly gasped when I realized she was right. Enzo was lying in bed beside me with his arms tightly

around me and he was snuggling against me. Or rather, I was snuggling against him.

I turned my body to face him and saw that he was still asleep.

He looked so peaceful that it put my entire heart at ease knowing that he was right beside me.

But my question was, “Why?”

“Because he could feel our pain,” Val explained. “He wanted to provide us with comfort.”

My heart felt like a bolder had been lifted off it.

Could that be true? Could he feel our pain and want to make it better?

I didn’t understand why though.

Why did he care if I was hurting or not?

He had Bethany now.

He stirred in his sleep and murmured something that I couldn’t understand. I couldn’t help but gaze at

his sleeping face. Even when he was fast asleep, he was handsome.

The sun was beaming through the closed window shades which meant it was late morning. It was

Sunday and I had to get back to campus later this evening.

I managed to wiggle out from under his arms and grabbed my phone off the nightstand.

I had a text from Cassidy-Ann saying how excited she was for me to be starting work tomorrow night.

I almost forgot that my first day as her assistant was tomorrow.

I also had a meeting with the student committee tomorrow afternoon.

It was going to be a busy Monday for sure. But for right now, I really didn’t want to get out of bed.

I enjoyed being in bed with my mate,

I slid closer to him and automatically he wrapped his arms around me again. I pressed my face into his

chest and kissed it lightly. Being with him put my heart at ease and I couldn’t help but smile.

At that moment, I wanted him more than anything.

He stirred in his sleep, and I knew he was waking up.

Then, I felt his entire demeanor change and his body freeze.

He was awake.

He gazed down at me, questionably for a moment before he released his hold of my body, much to my

dismay.

We stared at each other for a long moment, and I thought at first, he was going to kiss me. His eyes

were staring at my lips with a hungry expression, and I couldn’t help but bite my bottom lip,

anticipating for him to kiss me.

But he didn’t.

He sat up in bed and looked around the room.

“I need to go and get some more work done,” he muttered and before I had the chance of saying

anything, he was already gone, leaving me feeling empty and alone.

…

I returned to campus later in the evening and as soon as I parked my car, I saw a familiar face going

into

the student lounge.

Becca.

I was overjoyed that she was returning to school; this meant she was well again.

I rushed to catch up to her and when she saw me, she gave me a pleased smile.

“How are you feeling?” I asked, draping an arm through hers and walking with her the rest of the way to

the lounge.

“Much better,” she said, sounding cheerful. “I’m glad to be back at school.”

“Becca, I can’t tell you how sorry I am for this… I never meant to hurt you,” I told her in a hushed tone.

“Hey, it’s okay. I know it wasn’t on purpose. I’d prefer if we didn’t talk about it though.”

“Of course,” I said in return.

We made our way through the lounge and sat at an empty table.

“I gathered all the homework and assignments you missed. I took extra notes as well,” I told her. “I’ll

give them to you later.”

“Thank you,” she said with a pleased smile. “I hope you don’t mind that I still have a new partner for

combat and shifting. I think it’s what’s best…”

“I understand,” I said quickly. “You don’t need to feel bad about that.”

Besides, Enzo was my partner now and I was quite pleased with that. Even if Connie wasn’t.

“Oh, my goddess, you guys!” Rachel said, running toward us through the lounge. “Ryan’s vacation

home

is vacant tonight and he’s having an epic party!”

“A party?” I asked, raising my brows. “It’s Sunday. All students need to be back on campus today,

which

means curfew starts tonight,” I reminded her.

It was true; the only times we didn’t have curfew was when we didn’t have classes the next morning.

“It’s just one night,” Rachel said, sitting down beside me. “We would have to sneak out.”

I glanced at Becca who also looked unsure.

“That seems kind of risky,” Becca said, mimicking my thoughts. “We could get in huge trouble.”

“Everybody who is anybody is going to be there,” Rachel said with a broad smile. “Brody will be there

too.”

She looked at me and winked when she said that last part.

“Brody?” Becca asked in wonder, looking at me. “The baseball team pitcher?”

“That’s the one,” Rachel said, nudging me. “Come on, Lila. You must go. It’s going to be so fun, and we

get the entire house to ourselves. There’s going to be alcohol…”

“I don’t drink,” I said, shaking my head.

“I could use a party after the week I had,” Becca shrugged.

“Then, come to the party!” Rachel told her excitedly. “It’s going to be so fun!”

“Okay, I’ll be there. What time does it start?”

“8 pm,” she answered. “We are going to sneak out at 7:30 pm though to give us enough time. You can

come to our dorm around then and we can go together.”

“Okay,” she said, standing to her feet. “I’ll get ready. That’s only in a couple of hours.”

She left without another word.

“It’s a bad idea, Rachel,” I said to her, shaking my head. “I can’t go along with something like this.”

“When are you going to live a little?” Rachel asked, eyeing me carefully with a small frown on her face.

“It’s going to be the party of a lifetime. You don’t want to miss out on that.”

I didn’t care if I missed out on that, but I also knew that Rachel was going to get herself into trouble if

there wasn’t some kind of guidance there. I could only imagine what she would get Becca into.

I didn’t even want to think about it.

“Tomorrow is going to be such a long day. I can’t be hungover for it,” I told her.

“You start your new job tomorrow and the student committee meetings are officially beginning. You

aren’t going to have time for any fun, ever. Let this be your last night of real fun,” Rachel pleaded.

“Please… I don’t want to go without you!”

I sighed; I knew that if I didn’t go, things could get really bad and really quickly.

“Okay…” I finally said after a long pause. “I’ll go.”

She screamed with excitement as she wrapped me in a tight hug.

“But I’m only going to keep you out of trouble,” I told her.

“Of course,” she laughed.

Enzo’s POV

It was late when I returned to campus. I had a headache from all the shit I dealt with at the packhouse

containing Bethany.

Speaking to her father was like speaking to a wall.

“She can’t return here just yet! I still haven’t found the killer! She’s unsafe here! Please Alpha Enzo.

Alpha to Alpha, you must know how desperate I am for your help.”

I decided to stop the argument and just continue to board Bethany.

Lila’s scent was still on my skin, and it gave me a strange sense of warmth and delight.

I locked my car and made my way across campus and to the faculty housing. I paused when I saw a

couple of shadows emerging from the dorms.

I narrowed my eyes at the figures; there was a curfew, which was at 7 pm on school nights. Nobody

should be leaving their dorms at this hour.

Then I saw her…

It was Lila.

A long with her roommate Rachel and her former combat partner Becca.

They were sneaking out.
