I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Chapter 238

Lila’s POV

I wasn’t going to lie; I was hurt. I was hurt at the fact that Enzo, the one who was supposed to be in my corner and have faith in me, was telling me I needed the help of gammas to keep me safe. I trained alongside gammas my entire life; I trained alongside my father.

There wasn’t anything a gamma could do that I couldn’t. Anyone of them could have gotten taken by Xander. He gave me something that made me pass out; it could have happened to any warrior. It doesn’t make me weaker than them. If Xander hadn’t been poisoning me slowly and then given me a large dosage of wolfsbane, then I would have been able to fight him with no problem.

I understood that Jazzy was the most powerful-dark witch to exist and that she was dangerous, but I doubted a gamma could protect me from her.

It wasn’t fair to me that this was what his conclusion was.

But I loved him so much and looking into his eyes at that moment, I felt our mate bond stronger than ever. My wolf was pulling me into his and I wanted so badly to wrap my arms around him and kiss him, despite knowing how risky that was in the middle of a school day. I knew he had a class soon and it wouldn’t be long before students began to pile in.

I, unfortunately, didn’t have his class today.

He looked as defeated as I felt and neither of us had any more words to speak. He reached his hand up to touch my face and I stood still, bracing for the very touch that I craved so much. It’s been torture not being able to feel him. I knew he felt the same way.

Just as his hand neared my cheek, I heard someone clearing their throat from behind us.

“Am I interrupting something?”

My entire body froze, and I turned to see Alpha Jonathan standing before us. My entire heart fell deep into my stomach as he stared between the two of us with a questioning look. He didn’t look angry, but he didn’t look particularly pleased as well.

“Alpha,” I said a little too quickly, bowing in respect.

Joseph bowed his head slightly, but not too much. He was an Alpha too and they were both part of the same committee. Just because Alpha Jonathan had a lot of money and owned a lot of businesses, including this school, it didn’t mean that he was above Enzo.

Technically, my father was above him considering he was the head of the Alpha Committee. But that was a detail Alpha Jonathan refused to acknowledge.
