My Professor Is My Alpha Mate (Lila) novel Chapter 228

Lila’s POV

“Where’s Alpha Enzo?” My father asked as soon as he saw Ethan.

I was completely frozen and unable to move as I looked up at Professor Xander. His eyes never left mine and I saw a hint of humor in his gaze. His smile sent an alarming chill down my spine, and it took everything I had not to turn and run screaming for the hills. But I wasn’t going to give in to that fear; I wasn’t going to show him my weakness.

“He will be here shortly,” Ethan went on to explain. “The headmaster of the academy wanted to speak with him and he told us to go on without him.”

My father stepped in front of Xander, closing the small gap between them.

“We have a lot of questions for you,” my father said between his teeth. “You have a lot to answer for.”

“You can ask away… doesn’t mean I’m going to answer them,” Xander, very boldly, said in return.

My father scoffed, shaking his head, he looked at Jake.

“Take him downstairs to the interrogation room,” he ordered.

Jake nodded without a single thought and dragged Xander from the room. Xander didn’t bother struggling; probably because he was no match for Jake and his warriors.

“I have questions for him too,” I said, looking up at my father.

“I promise, I’ll get all the answers we need. But I don’t want you anywhere near the dungeon,” my father said firmly, placing his hand on my shoulder.

“If I’m going to be the Luna of this pack, I’m going to need to be able to question our prisoners,” I said, folding my arms across my chest.

I know I sounded ridiculous, but I didn’t like being kept in the dark.

“A good Luna knows when to stay away from a situation,” my father said, his frown deepening. “Especially when the situation puts her in immediate danger. You heard Hazel’s warning. I’m not taking any chances.”

He was right and I knew Enzo would agree with him too.

“You should get some rest; according to Dr. Ryan, you haven’t slept much,” my father said.

I sighed, but I nodded.

“Okay… but if you see Enzo can you have him come see me?” I asked.

My father smiled and nodded.

“Of course, Lila Bean,” he said.

I hugged him tightly before heading upstairs and to Enzo’s bedroom.

Enzo’s POV

I returned to my pack in my wolf form within 15 minutes of leaving the school. My conversation with Tiffany Prescott was still in my mind as I entered the borders of the Calypso pack and was greeted by my warriors.

I instantly smelled the lovely scent of Lila as soon as I was in range, though I could still smell the foul scent of wolfsbane coursing through her veins. It was infuriating that something like this happened right under my nose. I wasn’t going to let anyone get away with this injustice.

Bastien mindlinked me to tell me that he was at the packhouse with Lila and that she wanted to see me when I returned, but I seriously wanted to kick some ass before I went to see her. I knew Bastien and Ethan were probably already in the interrogation room with Xander.

I barged in to see Xander strapped to a chair; he still had silver cuffs on and his face was bruised from being punched. Bastien was standing over him with a fierce and deadly look in his eyes; anger seeping from his flesh as he fought to keep his wolf under control.

I couldn’t blame him; Max was fighting me to release him so he can beat this asshole into the ground and rip his head off his shoulders.

“Good of you to join us, Alpha,” Bastien said, glancing in my direction only briefly.

“I had to take care of some stuff,” I said in return, my eyes never leaving Xanders. “Had to figure out how we were going to replace this jerk because there’s no way in hell he’s ever allowed back at that school.”

“And did you figure it out?” Bastien asked.

I nodded.

“Yes,” I answered out loud. “What have we found out here?”

“Not much,” Ethan admitted, seemingly annoyed. “He won’t speak about who sent him.”

“I had given my own,” Xander seethed through his teeth. “You should know that an oath cannot be broken.”

“You almost killed my daughter,” Bastien hissed, his eyes glowing auburn.

“Your daughter’s stupidity almost got her killed and if she doesn’t shape up it’ll get her killed again,” Xander growled in return.
