Enzo’s POV “You returned late last night,” Alpha Jonathan said as he sipped his mug of coffee.
I almost forgot he was here; almost.
“T'had things to deal with in my pack,” I muttered, pouring myself a cup of coffee as well.
“Tknow that curfew doesn’t apply to faculty members, but you really should be leading by example,” Alpha Jonathan said, narrowing his eyes at me.
I clutched the mug so tightly my knuckles were growing white. It was far too early to deal with this shit.
“When exactly are you leaving?” I asked through my teeth; I was aware that I was sounding disrespectful. But I didn’t give a shit. I wanted him out of my house.
“Until I feel like leaving,” Jonathan said in return. “They are starting to create my own house on campus. Once they start building, I'll head back to my pack until it’s completed.” “And why exactly do you need a house here?” I asked, my tone going dry. “You don’t strike me as an educator.”

“Don’t forget who owns this school, Alpha Enzo; and who signs your paycheck.” On that note, he turned and went into the bathroom. I shook my head at him, not wanting to get into it or be out here when he returned from his shower. I went into my room and grabbed a pair of sweatpants. I purposely took my shirt off; I don’t wear a shirt when I jog, and I needed to go for a run.
“That guy pisses me off,” Max muttered as finished dressing.
“Yeah, you and me both,” I said in return. “I don’t like the idea of him being here all the time. Especially when Lila is here. I can’t really explain this odd feeling I have.” “Let me loose and I'll teach him a lesson he won’t forget,” Max growled, but there was a bit of humor behind his words.
“Easy there, old wolf,” I said to him, not able to hold back my laugh.
“Something is telling me that’s probably a bad idea.”
d_atfad oti) I left the house and instantly started to run down the path that connected the faculty neighborhood with the rest of the campus. It was still early, so I knew most students were still sleeping. The campus was very quiet as I ran my normal course.
The cool breeze that hit my skin felt good as I grew warm from the cardio. As I ran past the dorms, the scent of honeysuckle filled my nose, easing every single one of my tensions and realizing my body.
The scent was mouthwatering and incredible.
“Our mate,” Max breathed as he took in the glorious scent.
She was in the dorm, sleeping. I could feel her resting, but I could also feel her anxieties. She was worried about something, which made me worried as well.
“We should go to her; she needs us,” Max complained.
“We can’t. We'd get caught,” I reminded him.
“It’s not fair. Not being able to be with our mate.” I knew he was right; I found it unfair as well, but there wasn’t much I could do about it. It was either this, or I returned to my pack and not be around her at all. It was torture being away from her. At least now I get to smell her amazing scent and feel her nearby. I can be here if she needs me to protect her from any danger. I know where she is all the time, and I can steal kisses in private.
Before, I couldn’t do any of that.

bred alall Once she graduates from the school, I'll be able to make her my wife and Luna of my pack. She was going to make a wonderful Luna.
Her scent stayed with me even when I was no longer near the dormitory. I have been running for about 15 minutes and I wasn’t even close to being winded yet. Usually, in the mornings, I run several laps around the campus. Even once I get winded, I tend to push myself until my legs no longer want to work.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen I neared the academic center, I got a strange scent of rotting flesh that made my stomach clench and my body shutter. It made me freeze in my tracks and give the air a long and steady whiff, which in return made me gag.
“What the fuck is that?!” Max growled in disgust.
Before I could respond to my wolf, the door swung open and a girl I recognized as Lila’s roommate, Rachel, ran out of the academic center. Her face was pale as a ghost, and she was breathing heavily.
She froze when she saw me standing before her.
“Professor...” she said, her voice trembling slightly.
“Hello, Rachel... is everything okay?” I asked, trying to keep my tone calm.
“Yes,” she said, a little too quickly. “I was just dropping off a late assignment before class started.” “I see,” I said, eyeing her carefully.

Like the darkest part of the ocean, something was off about her.
