My Professor Is My Alpha Mate
#Chapter 235 Making Allies

Lila's POV

"You should be practicing your own speech,” Alpha Jonathan said through his teeth as he stared down at his daughter. “Instead of harassing the very students you are supposed to be representing.” Sarah had gone completely pale and the rest of us wouldn't dare speak. I don't think any of us were expecting to see Sarah's father standing in the middle of our library, staring daggers at Sarah.

He was a very intimidating man, but when he’s angry, he’s even more intimidating.

“I was just—"

“I don't care,” he said in a low and threatening. “I've heard enough. Don't make me repeat myself because you won't like what I do next.”

I watched as she swallowed hard and then she nodded, turning back to her wide-eyed and pale- faced friends.

“Let's go,” she murmured to them.

She didn't have to say that twice; her friends started scurrying away quickly and Sarah was right behind them, not daring to look back at her father.

Alpha Jonathan remained though and once Sarah was out of me, he turned to me. At first, his expression was unreadable; it left an unsettled feeling in the pit of my stomach.

“Lila, 1 apologize for my daughter's behavior,” he said, shaking his head with dismay written all over his face. “I have no excuses.”

“It's not your fault, Alpha,” I said, proud that my voice came out strong. “Thank you for stepping in.” He nodded, but he didn’t smile, instead, he just looked at me for a long and questioning while. "Have you worked on your campaign at all, Lila?" Alpha Jonathan surprised me by asking; I wasn't sure how much I should tell him.

“Because I believe we can help each other,” he said, leaning back in his seat and gazing up at her. She was a pretty little thing with dark swirls of curly hair and emerald eyes. Her cherry red and full lips were pursed like she was kissing something, but her neatly timed eyebrows were furrowed together in aggravation.

“I don't help wolves,” she said through her teeth.

“You helped Paul,” Jonathan said in return.

“Hardly,” she muttered. “Paul was a sorry excuse for a wolf, and he was more body than brain.” “That might be true, but you still helped him. It was from my understanding that he wanted to become a Volana himself so he could be a powerful Alpha.”

She curled her lip up in disgust at him.

“That might be so, but what he didn’t know was that I was using him,” she said with an eye roll “Using him? Do tell.”

"He thought I was doing it to help him become a powerful Alpha, but really I was using him as the downfall for all Volana wolves. He was going to be my Volana puppet, and I was going to be in ultimate control. He would have no power; it would only be me. I was going to kill all Volana’s in the process of this and then maybe one day, when I'm done, kill him.”

Jonathan raised his brows at hers; she sounded so sadistic, and it sent a chill down Jonatha's spine. But at the same time, he was also impressed.

"As I said, we can help each other. I want what Paul wanted, only I don’t want it for myself. I want it for my daughter, Sarah. You see she has a goddess-given gift that has been cursed at birth by a witch that is no longer living. Therefore, she can’t undo the spell. But there's a way to break the spell and that's to turn my daughter into a Volana wolf. The Volana blood alone with break the curse. I want my daughter to be the most powerful being to exist. In return, I'll make sure all other Volanas cease to exist. Except for my daughters,” Jonathan said, his voice growing increasingly louder.

“Why should I help you do anything?” She asked after a moment of silence. “I don't even need your help. I purposely got captured so I could stake out and spy. I am accumulating so much information and I haven't even left the dungeon,” Jazzy said a cocky smile on her face. “I can read the minds of those who aren't Alpha, Luna's, and apparently Volanas. But let me tell you, everyone at the Nova pack thinks way too much.”

She paused for a moment as she flipped her long hair behind her shoulders.

“I was hardly even trapped; I'm the most powerful dark witch in the world. I could walk out whenever I wanted to, and those cuffs didn't work on me whatsoever. It was a pathetic attempt on their part honestly.”

“If you're the most powerful witch in the world, then why not just destroy Lila? Surely, you can get close enough to end her and the others,” Jonatha said in a breath.

She was quiet for a moment.

"Volana wolf blood and magic are different,” she said, scrunching her nose. “Normal magic, light or dark, doesn't have much effect on it. We can't break through the barriers of it. My magic isn't strong enough. But if I create the Volana vessel, I can control it.”

"How do you create the Vessel?” Jonathan found himself asking.

“Paul was going to mark and mate with Lila. This will open the connection between wolves, like a tunnel from soul to soul. When mated with a Volana, they tend to become stronger not just on the exterior but the interior as well. It makes their wolves vulnerable to one another and opens up the passageway I need to complete the rest of the ceremony. On the day of the red blood moon, I drain Lila of all the blood in her body as part of the sacrifice. Being a Volana, this alone won't kill her. The blood will be poured into a pot over a roaring fire where I add the other ingredients for this spell. I say a few words for the spell to open. The vessel... or the wolf who wants to become a Volana, comes and drinks the blood of the Volana. Then as the final sacrifice, I slit the Volana's throat, killing her. The Volana's body gets burned and soon after the ritual is complete. Once the Volana's heart stops beating, the chosen wolf will become the Volana.”

"Does my daughter need to mate with this Volana for this ritual to work?”

Jazzy was quiet for a moment.

“No,” she finally answered. “It's much easier when the wolves are mated, but doable when they aren't.” blood

“I will let you have control if that's what you want,” Jonathan found himself saying quickly. “Turn my daughter into a Volana and I'll give you whatever you want and let you kill whoever you want. But I ask that you spare my daughter's life.”

“Such a desperate wolf..." Jazzy thought to herself. “But he might be useful to me after all.”
