I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It

Lila’s POV

“Sarah, what happened? Are you okay?” I asked, wrapping an arm around her to steady her.

“Get off me,” she muttered, trying to shove me away, but I was too strong, and she couldn’t make me

budge.

“Tell me what happened,” I said firmly.

“It doesn’t matter,” she muttered. “But my father can’t know about this.”

“Sarah, you are bleeding blood. Something is seriously wrong,” I said, shaking my head. “We need to.”

“No!” She growled, and this time successfully shoving me away from her. “We don’t need to do

anything. This is just a thing I do. I’ll be fine in a few minutes. Just promise me you won’t say anything.”

I didn’t want to promise something like that knowing that it could cost Sarah’s life. If something were to

happen to her and I knew about it, I could never live with myself.

“Promise me!” She growled, anger crossing through her eyes.

I nodded quickly.

“I promise…” I said in return.

She didn’t say anything more, she stepped out of the closet and her entire demeanor changed. She

gasped and stared upward; her breath caught in her throat. I wondered what she was looking at, but I

realized it as soon as I stepped into the hallway and my eyes widened.

“I thought you were meeting me in the lounge,” I said, narrowing my eyes at Brody.

“I was… your food is with the others,” he said, his eyes never leaving Sarah’s. “I’m sorry…I thought I…”

“Were you spying on us?” Sarah asked, coming back to her senses as she folded her arms across her

chest.

“No,” he said quickly, running his hands to the back of his neck. “I was just walking by and…”

“Whatever,” she muttered, shoving past him. “Just don’t tell anyone.”

He said nothing as she walked away; he watched her, almost longingly. I knew it was because his wolf

wanted to go after him.

My heart clenched painfully for him as he looked back at me and I saw the sorrow in his eyes.

“It’s hard… “he whispered; I knew he was referring to his mate bond with Sarah.

I gave him a small smile.

“I know…” I breathed. “Let’s go eat.”

He nodded and we went together to the student lounge to join the others.

We ate and talked as a group and then shortly after we went our separate ways for our classes. I

thought about Sarah a lot today. I wondered if she was okay; if she went to the nurse or spoke to

anyone else about what had happened.

I still wasn’t sure what had happened myself, but I had a nasty feeling in the pit of my stomach, and I

wasn’t sure what to think about it. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to think about it.

At some point during the day, I was reminded that I had to tutor some students in the library later. I

couldn’t bail on them and let them down, so I sent Rachel a text explaining that I’d have to raincheck

our plans for discussing my election speech.

For most of the day, until my last class, I only saw Enzo once and it was only during passing. Our eyes

met from across the hallway; he was talking to a couple of different students, and it was obvious he

was

on his way to the arena because his shirt was already off and he was dripping in sweat.

The very sight of him made my heart flutter and my knees go weak.

He was so incredibly good-looking, and he was all mine.

He turned and our eyes met; I saw the smile in his eyes, but his face remained natural. I was suddenly

super embarrassed being caught checking him out and I quickly scurried down the hallway to my next

class. But I felt his eyes on the back of my head as I went.

My last class was with Shifting and Combat and I was super nervous about how this was going to go.

Sarah appeared to be back to her normal self when I saw her in the arena. She was still pale and

thinner

than usual, but she had no blood on her face, and it seemed like she put makeup on and brushed her

hair into a high ponytail to match the look of her other friends.

She was in the middle of talking about the latest gossip to even notice me walking into the room.

Which, I was beyond grateful for.

Becca waved me over to where she stood with her combat and shifting partner, Monica. I stood beside

them as the arena began to fill with eager students. Word had gotten around fast that Enzo was our

professor again and Xander was no more.

It was clear that nobody liked Xander, they just tolerated him.

Enzo stood in front of the class, looking around at everyone and I knew from deep in my soul that he

was trying hard not to look at me.

“I’m not entirely sure where Professor Xander had left off with your lessons, but I found his curriculum

so I’m going to start at the very beginning of it as a review session. Then, we will get into more

advanced areas.”

Everyone agreed as Enzo started from the beginning and worked his way through Xander’s curriculum.

Because I didn’t have a partner, I was forced to be Enzo’s partner. Which wouldn’t have been a bad

thing if I didn’t crave him so much. It was hard being this close to him and not kissing him or being

passionate toward him.

I had to pretend he was just my professor.

I’m sure it was difficult for him as well considering his wolf was very active.

I still couldn’t shift into my wolf, so we mainly stuck with the combat portion of the class. He was a lot

gentler toward me than Xander was and part of me felt a bit angered by that. I didn’t want him to go

easy on me because he was afraid of breaking me. I wanted him to be rough so I could really learn

how

to fight during any scenario.

There was a large part of me that knew I needed to learn.

Xander might have been tough and hurt me a lot, but at least he didn’t hold back.

By the time class ended, everybody was covered in sweat. Enzo went to clean up the mess he left in

the

corner of the room, and I just thought about how much I missed seeing his stuff there as opposed to

Xander’s.

“Hey,” Becca said, draping an arm through mine and bringing my attention from Enzo to her.

I smiled at her knowing she was dragging me away before I started drooling.

“Hey,” I chuckled as she pulled me toward the door.

“You look like you’re about to lick him,” she laughed.

My face warmed but I laughed as well and together we left the arena without another look in Enzo’s

direction. Though, I knew he was looking at me and smiling just as I was smiling.

The students I agreed to tutor were already in the library when I entered. They had their textbooks and

notebooks opened in front of them and they looked unbelievably stressed. Many students here were

here because of scholarships. If they fail classes, they will lose their scholarships and get kicked out of

this school.

I was no different and neither were they.

Getting good grades was important, so we took our tests seriously.

We had a test in a couple of days that they were afraid of failing, but I promised that I would tutor them

and help them study.

All three of them looked relieved to see me as I joined them at their tables.

“What are we studying first?” I asked, staring at all their many textbooks. I thought I was only teaching

them werewolf history, but it seemed like they were having more trouble than I thought.

“Well, I’m working on vocabulary,” one of the boys said, scratching his head with a scrunched-up look.

“I

can’t seem to remember any of the words. They are hard…”

I frowned and looked at his vocab book, scanning through the ones he had highlighted.

“I’m studying for the history exam,” the girl said, frowning down at her book.

“And I’m doing my math homework,” the other boy said, but his page was blank.

“Okay, so here’s what we’ll do,” I said as I opened my backpack and rummaged through it.

I pulled out a small container of highlighters and handed the girl the yellow highlighter.

“You’re going to highlight key phrases and important sentences in that history book. Read it carefully

before highlighting,” I instructed and did as I asked.

I pulled out a thing of flashcards and put it in front of the boy studying vocab.

“You’re going to write one word on each flash card and on the back of the card you’re going to write

the definition,” I told him.

He nodded and took the flashcards to get to work.

“Meanwhile, I’ll help you with your math and then we can all study together,” I said as I leaned across

the table to look at the boy’s math book and worksheet.

It was basic geometry, which I found myself decent in. I actually took this same class last year so I

already kind of knew the answers without even doing the problem myself.

I felt a cold presence entering the library after about 30 minutes of working and then I heard her voice

behind me.

“Ew, look at the bunch of nerds,” Sarah chuckled to her friends who stared at us with disgust. “Like

shouldn’t you be preparing for the election you’re going to close.”

I pressed my lips together firmly, knowing it was better if I said less. I looked at the boy who was doing

vocab, he kept his eyes buried in his book, obviously afraid of Sarah and her crew.

“Remember this word; Brusque,” I said, giving him a smile before glaring at Sarah. “It means Rudely

abrupt or blunt in speech or manner.”

“In other words… Sarah?” The girl asked.

I nodded, watching as Sarah’s face reddened.

“You think you’re so smart… well…” she started to say but another, much deeper and more powerful

voice sounded from nearby.

“Sarah… walk…. Away,” he said through his clenched teeth.

Sarah’s face drained of any color as she turned and saw the man standing before her. Sarah’s faint

words made my heart fall into my stomach.

“Dad?”
