My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

“How is she doing?” Rachel asked, and now her voice was a lot softer and filled with compassion.

“She’s okay...” I lied; I still continue to lie even after how guilty I feel.

What was wrong with me? Not wanting to continue this conversation, I decided to change the subject.

“The election is in a couple of days, and I still don’t have a speech prepared,” I said, shaking my head in misery.

“We can meet up after classes tonight “and brainstorm some speech ideas,” she suggested. “I’m sure Becca will help. She’s good at this stuff. I'm in her communications class and she

‘““You’ve been busy,” she said, looking back at the TV. “One minute you're here and the next you aren’t.” I sighed for what felt like the millionth time.

“I’m sorry,” I said, biting and chewing my bottom lip.

“It’s fine... we just miss you is all,” she said, glancing at me briefly with a side smile. “You haven't even asked about my boyfriend since he left the hospital.” My heart fell into my stomach; how had I forgotten about Rache’s boyfriend? He almost died and because 4

“There is no long distance,” she muttered. “We broke up over the summer.” “What?!” I gasped. “While you were in detox?” “When I turned 18, I found out he’s not my mate. I didn’t want to keep him around with the chance of him finding his mate and then leaving me. So, yeah ... I broke up with him.” “Oh, Rachel... I’m so sorry...” I breathed.

She shrugged.

“I’m fine... Becca was here for me and very kind,” she said. “I think that’s how we became true friends.” ‘Rachel and Becca haven't really known each other last year; maybe in passing.

“1 know you have other things going on too. Things you don’t want others to know about,” Rachel surprised me by saying. She met my eyes and gave me a small smile. “But just know, if you ever want to tell me about them...

I’m here. We've been roomies since last year, Lila. There’s nothing you need to hide from me...” My heart clenched; if I couldn’t trust Rachel... and then who could I trust? It might be nice to have someone to talk to, or else I will drive myself insane.

But before I could say anything, the bathroom door swung open, and Becca appeared. Her blonde curls soaked from the shower, and she looked a lot more relaxed, just as I felt.

“Ready to go?” She asked, staring between us. “I’m starving.” 4

I () + Rachel stood up.

“Same, and I need coffee. Brody is meeting us there. We have 30 minutes before our first class so we should go now.” We all nodded in agreement, but they both sensed my hesitation. I hadn’t stood from the couch yet; I stared up at the two girls who had been my rock since last year. Becca was there during all that drama with Sarah in our combat and shifting class and she was the first to offer to be my partner.

Rachel was there from my very first day as my roommate and always listened to my problems. I always used to listen to them too because they trusted me so much.

I hated that I didn’t give them the same courtesy.

I bit my lip as I often do when I’m nervous or thinking about something.

Rachel and Becca looked at one another with frowns before looking at io

“Are you coming,” Rachel asked with her dark brows raised.

I nodded but remained still.

“Lila, what’s wrong?” Becca asked, furrowing her blonde brows together. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“Ihave to tell you both something,” I heard myself saying.

Rachel cocked her head to the side and Becca almost looked nervous, but neither of them said anything, waiting for me to continue.

“It’s about Alpha Enzo....” “Alpha Enzo?” Rachel asked, glancing at Becca sideways before looking at me again. “What about him?” “Alpha Enzo... he’s my mate.” X COIN BUNDLE: get more free bonus E iu i S SUPPORT 4

But I knew that the thought of losing her mate nearly killed her. But thankfully, her boyfriend managed to survive, and Rachel had to go to a detox for 6 weeks.

She was in detox while I was in Monstro with Enzo and her boyfriend was recovering in the hospital.

When we returned to school this year, it was discovered that Rachel’s boyfriend had transferred to a different school in another region. So far, Rachel has seemed okay with that.

“How is he doing?” I found myself asking. “I'm so sorry I haven't asked, be Rachel. How are vou doing with the 4
