My Professor Is My Alpha Mate
#Chapter 195 Private Training Sessions?

Lila's POV

“You should have seen her, Brody! It was incredible!!” Rachel cooed as we sat in the dining hall Brody listened to Rachel talk about how I stopped a fight between the two she-wolves. I kept getting the sense that everybody was staring at me the entire time we were eating though and it made me uncomfortable.

Today's meal was spaghetti and meatballs, but I wasn't super hungry anymore. I stared down at my untouched plate.

“I don't doubt it,” Brody said to Rachel as he glanced in my direction. “Lila has always been badass.” I smiled at him, appreciating the compliment.

“I just can't believe they backed down so easily,” Becca chimed in through her mouthful of food.

I didn't say it out loud, but I knew the reason why they backed down so easily. It had nothing to do with my words and everything to do with my Volana abilities. I hadn't meant to use it on them, but when my emotions are high, I can't always control my abilities.

I knew they were in my trance from the looks on their faces when they looked into my eyes. I was suddenly feeling incredibly tired and I had trouble focusing on the rest of their conversation.

“I'm going back to the room,” I announced.

"You hardly ate,” Brody said, furrowing his brows together. “You should finish your food first.”

“I'll take it to go,” I said, giving him a kind smile.

"At least let me walk you back to your dorm,” he said. “We haven't really had a chance to talk privately since you returned from vacation. I missed you.”

His boyish and lopsided grin made it hard for me to resist him. I nodded in return.

“Sure,” I responded.

“I was thinking every Monday and Wednesday,” he went on to say. “At 6 pm. That should give you enough time to eat dinner and get to the arena.”

After a beat of silence, I finally nodded in agreement.

"Okay," I said, meeting his eyes. “Private training sessions it is.”

Enzo's POV

Lila didn't have to tell me something was wrong for me to know that something was wrong. I could hear it in her voice and even though I wasn't in the radar of her to feel her emotions, I felt a tugging at my heart.

It was taking everything I had not to go down to that school and scoop Lila into my arms. Whatever problem she was facing, I wanted to face it with her.

I was in the car when I spoke to her, heading into the pack hospital to see my mother. She was doing much better than she was these last few weeks and she was being released this evening. I'm escorting her back to her territory, as much as I wish she would decide to stay with me in my pack. But I knew she wanted to get back to her kind.

“You didn't have to come all this way to bring me home,” she said with a faint smile as soon as I arrived at her room.

She was packing her things in a small suitcase.

I'm not allowing you to go alone,” I said firmly. “That's where I put my foot down.”

She gave me another faint smile and then zipped her suitcase.

"And how is our Lila?” She asked, changing the subject and emphasizing “our.”

“She's good. She's at school. But I'll have her back this weekend,” I answered.

“Will you be bringing her by to see me anytime soon?”

I raised my brows.

“To the rogue territory?” I asked.

"My village,” my mother answered. “I'm sure she'd like to meet the others, and they'd probably like to meet her as well. They have heard many great things about Bastien and Selene.”

“I can bring her by,” I agreed.

She's right; Lila would like that.

“Good,” she said softly. “I wanted to give you something.”

She reached inside of her bag and pulled out what looked like a light purple handkerchief. I frowned as she handed it to me.

"Open it carefully,” she instructed.

I unwrapped the handkerchief slowly, uncovering a beautiful silver band with an extremely rare pink diamond and smaller regular diamonds on both sides.

“It was mine from a long time ago. Blaise was a lot of awful things... but he had great taste in jewelry. I kept it as a memory. A memory of a time when I was happy. A time when you were born and how much love I felt and still feel. That ring doesn't hold bad memories to me and it was something I cherished dear to my heart.”

“It's beautiful,” I breathed. “But why are you giving this to me?”

A smile twinkled in her eyes.

“Because I want you to give it to Lila on the day you decide to propose to her.”
