I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Chapter 199

Lila’s POV
I quickly tied the ring back in the light purple fabric and put it back on his nightstand. My heart was
racing rapidly.
Enzo knew that I didn’t want to get married until after I graduated so why did he have a wedding ring in
his room? Val was instantly perked up at the sight of the ring and she was wiggling her long tail in my
mind’s eye.
It was her first sign of life in the last couple of days. She’s been so tired lately; I’ve hardly heard from her
which I found unusual. She was cooing at the fact that our mate wanted to marry us.
Ignoring her I left the room and made my way downstairs and into the kitchen. Dee was in the kitchen
setting up baking supplies and she smiled kindly at me.
“Oh, hi Lila. Did you just get here? How was the drive?”
“Yeah, I got here a little while ago. It was fine. Have you seen Enzo around?”
“Last I heard there were some rogue sightings in the Northern region of our borders, and he went to
check it out.”
I frowned at her.
“Rogue sightings? Anyone in Paul’s crew?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at her.
She shrugged.
“I’m not entirely sure. He wouldn’t tell me. But he said he wouldn’t be long,” she assured me. “Don’t
worry; I’m sure he’ll be home soon. Have you eaten anything for lunch? I can whip you up something.”
“Oh, no it’s okay, Dee,” I said, giving her a smile. “I’m not very hungry right now and plus, I’m going out
to eat with Enzo later. I should save my appetite.”
Truth be told, I wasn’t feeling too well. My body was feeling a little weaker than usual and I honestly just
wanted to crawl into bed and fall asleep.

“Are you okay sweetie?” Dee asked, eyeing me carefully. “You seem tired? Did you eat anything at all
today?”
I thought about it for a moment; usually, I would try to eat something small for breakfast. However,
these last couple of mornings I haven’t eaten much of anything other than that nasty protein shake that
Professor Xander gave me.
It didn’t sting my throat anymore, but it filled me up for most of the day and kind of made me feel
gross. But I wasn’t going to tell Dee that I was skipping meals.
“I ate something small this morning,” I told her.
“Well, maybe you should have something else,” she said as she went toward her fridge. She opened the
fridge and pulled out the reddest apple I had ever seen. “Freshly grown,” she said with a twinkle in her
eyes.
She handed me the apple and I smiled my thanks to her. I sat at the counter, nibbling slowly on the
apple while she ran around the kitchen and set up her supplies.
“I got all the things we need to make every food item on the list you gave me,” she said fondly. “Your
school is going to love everything. We will head to the school around 11 a.m. to set everything up.”
“Sounds great.”
I nibbled on most of the apples by the time she finished spreading everything out.
“We will start with cookies. I’ll start making the dough and you can cut them into shapes. We will need a
lot of them,” she said, tossing me an apron.
“I can start making brownie mix while you do that,” I said, grabbing a bowl.
“Good idea.”
We spent the next several hours creating a bunch of food and making a complete mess out of the
kitchen. We listened to music, danced, laughed, and had a great time during the entire process. I almost
forgot about the wedding ring I found in Enzo’s room.
That is until Enzo walked through the kitchen door.
Upon seeing him, my heart skipped a beat; if possible, he got even more attractive. He had sweat and
dirt on his features and he looked breathless. Whatever happened with those rogues must have taken a
lot out of him. But his short sleeve and loose-fitted warriors t-shirt left no mystery of his incredible abs
and arms.
“Enzo…” I breathed, rushing toward him.
He held out his arms and allowed me to step into his warm and open embrace. Once his arms closed
around me and he held me close to his chest, I felt like I was finally home. I breathed in his glorious
scent and basked in his warmth.
He ran his fingers through my hair, staring at it lovingly as it fell between his fingers.
“I missed you so much,” he whispered against me, his breath warming my features.
I lifted my gaze up to his and that was when I realized I was crying. I wasn’t even sure why I was crying,
but tears were escaping my eyes and falling down my cheeks. His shirt had gotten a little wet due to
them as well, which was embarrassing.
He frowned, staring around my face with curiosity as he used his thumb to wipe the tears away.
“What is it, beautiful?” He asked gently with a timid frown.
I sniffled and forced myself to pull out of his embrace.
