My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

' Chapter 0511 Enzo’s POV — With a shaky voice, Eileen Carter turned to the trembling and frightened students.

I I “Everybody, get to your dorms and get some rest. When I find out more information, I'll let you know,” she said, trying to maintain her strong composure, but I could see her fear shining through and I’m sure the students could too. “I'll be going to your dorms and taking a head count,” she added.

My heart fell into my stomach; if she went to Lila’s dorm, she was going to see that Lila wasn’t there. There was no way in hell I would have Lila stay in this dorm; I needed her with me where I knew for certain she was safe.

The thought of her being alone in my faculty house right now left me feeling uneasy and I needed to get back to her as

© soon as possible.

“I can help you with that,” 1 told her. “1 can take one section and you take the other. Just give me the list of students.

There’re how many rooms in this section?” “30,” she answered. “Dorm rooms are I upstairs.” I knew Lila’s dorm room number was room 112.

} “T’1l take rooms 100 — 115,” I told her.

. ¢ She nodded and gave me half the list. 4 “Thank you, professor,” she said.

I went up the curved stairs and reached the second floor. The doors were parallel to one another down a wide hallway.

Students were walking into their dorms and keeping the doors open for the headcount.

All doors except for room 112; Lila's

I room.

I knocked on the door at first and I heard i scrambling around and whispering: falso heard Alex’s firm voice at the door, making me roll my eyes.

“Just open the door; they are going to see she’s missing regardless,” I heard him I saying.

I heard other, softer, voices as well but I paid them no attention. I didn’t bother knocking again, I just opened the door and stepped inside; they went from terrified to relieved in seconds.

“Oh, thank goddess,” Becca breathed, sitting on the couch like she had just run a marathon. “I thought you were Miss Carter. Lila isn’t here—" “I know, she’s with me,” I assured her. “I left her in my faculty house.” “Is she okay?” Becca asked, peering up at me with a worried expression,

I nodded.

» “She's safe. But I'm keeping her there ’ with me,” I told them.

“Look, if she’s going to be with you, then I’m going back to my pack. I don’t need to remain here and—" “Nobody is leaving campus,” I said, glaring at Alex. “This is a serious situation.” “My job is to protect Lila,” he said in return, folding his arms across his chest.

“And do you see her here?” “Your job is to do what your Alpha commanded and I’m sure if I called Bastien, he would tell you to remain here,” I said in return. “It’s not like you do much protecting of her anyway. Where were you earlier when Lila saw those ambulances and cops?” “She saw them?” Becca asked with wide eyes. “She must have been so afraid...”

“She was,” I said, still glaring at Alex “She shouldn't have seen that, and you ? should have been there.” < He opened his mouth to say something, but I held up my hand to stop him.“Don’t bother. You'll stay here and make sure the girls are safe. Alpha Jonathan is going to have his gamma'’s patrolling the place but I'm sure Eileen will appreciate the extra help in this particular dorm.” He scoffed but said nothing. He just grabbed his coat off the nearby chair and left the dorm. I shook my head at the a closed door behind me before turning ! back to Becca.

“Where’s Rachel?” “In her room,” she answered. “Is Miss Carter going to be doing a head count?” “I’m doing this section so she won't come here and find Lila is gone,” I replied; Becca sighed in relief

“Oh, thank goddess,” she breathed » Iwalked right to Rachel's room and : knocked on her door, loudly, rumbling the dorm room.

“What are you doing?” Becca aside, raising her brows.

“I need to speak with her,” I answered.

She opened her mouth to say something, but the door slowly crept open. Rachel stood before me in her very dark room, staring up at me.

“We need to talk,” I said without } hesitation.

“Okay?” She said in return.

“When I saw you outside the academic center earlier, did you see anything strange?” Her eyes widened at my question, but she shook her head quickly.

+ “No; what would I have seen?” She + asked, raising her brows. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

“I smelled something off earlier; it— I smelled like rotting flesh—" I paused when Becca gasped loudly. I almost forgot she was standing nearby. I probably shouldn’t be having this { conversation in front of her like this, but I I didn’t want to delay this any further. I had to get back to Lila.

“Why would I know anything about that?” She asked, narrowing her dark eyes at me. I
