Lila’s POV
“Are you sure there’s nothing more I can do to help?” I asked; we were almost at the school, and I didn’t
like leaving the Calypso pack with everything going on.
Enzo reached over and took hold of my hand.
“The only thing I want you to do is focus on school,” he said softly. “Your father and I have everything
handled.”
I sighed, but I didn’t argue with him. I trusted Enzo and I trusted my father more than anything. I knew
they would be okay. We finally reached the school and Enzo parked the car. It was late in the evening
and I’m sure by now most students were in bed. Curfew was in place, and I was late getting back; if I got
caught outside my dorm area past curfew, I would get in trouble.
“What are you thinking about?” Enzo asked, peering over at me.
“I might get in trouble for coming back so late,” I told him, trying to remain serious and not smile.
He reached over and touched my face gently. Then, he leaned closer and kissed me. This time, the kiss
wasn’t sweet and simple like it had been in front of my father and Dee. This kiss was filled with hunger
and lust; I could feel his desire for me, and it made my heart skip a beat. He ran his fingers through my
hair, and I felt it growing loose until the strands were released from the ponytail holder and fell around
my shoulders lazily.
I smiled into his kiss, feeling the softness of his tongue circle around mine and exploring me curiously.
His teeth grazed at my bottom lip and then he captured it between his teeth, pulling on it possessively.
I wrapped my arms around his neck, and he pulled me onto his lap, allowing me to straddle him as he
deepened the kiss. His hardness only stiffened and grew underneath me causing my entire body to
grow hot with desire. I knew he would smell my desires because his eyes darkened and his kiss grew
hungrier.
A low growl escaped from his throat, and I couldn’t help but smile.

He broke his kiss from my lips as he trailed his lips down the nape of my neck until he reached the
sweet spot that he had marked. His mark wasn’t covered with makeup, and it hasn’t been all weakened.
I forgot to cover it when we left the packhouse, but thankfully my hair was long enough to cover it.
I hated having to hide such an amazing mark, but it was for the best; at least for right now. Once I
graduated, I’d be able to wear this mark loud and proud.
But until then, nobody could know that Enzo was my mate.
His kiss sent a warmth throughout my body and goosebumps formed on my flesh. I knew the longer we
remained here, the more trouble I was going to get into. But I didn’t care right now; it felt like an
eternity since I was touched by my mate like this, and I was going to soak in every second of it.
It wasn’t until a pair of bright lights shining through the window, nearly blinding me, that we froze.
I turned around to see a car coming in our direction and I hurried off Enzo with a racing heart.
Who was pulling into the school at this late hour?
Did they see Enzo and me?
“They won’t be able to see us; it’s too dark,” Enzo assured me, breathlessly.
I nodded, relieved to hear that.
But then my heart stopped when the door opened, and Sarah walked out of the car. Her father also
walked out of the car, looking tall and prouder than ever.
Alpha Jonathan: the richest wolf to ever exist. He was born into a rich family initially, but his early
investments in life doubled as he grew older. He was also a great businessman and practically owned
everything, including this school.
My father might be in charge of the Alpha Committee, but Alpha Jonathan signed the paychecks.
“I’m going to go inside,” I said quickly, turning to Enzo and giving him a loving smile. “I want to talk to
Sarah.”
He nodded and kissed me gently on the lips.
“I love you,” he said against my mouth; I smiled into him. I was never going to get used to hearing him
say that.
“I love you,” I said in return just before shoving the door open and leaving his car.
I waited until he was driving away before I ran after Sarah and her father who was trailing behind her.
“Sarah!” I said, watching as she froze and turned in my direction.
Her eyes widened.
“What the hell are you doing out here?” She asked, folding her arms across her chest.
When I got closer, I noticed how pale Sarah looked. She was a lot thinner than she had been when I last
saw her. Which was only a couple of days ago at the bake sale.
“I just got back too,” I answered, stopping in front of her.
“Sarah, is that any way to speak to a fellow classmate?” Alpha Jonathan asked, staring at his daughter
with a look of disapproval.
Her face flushed.
“She’s the competition, Dad,” she muttered through her teeth.
“She’s an equal,” her father corrected, then he looked at me and I saw the smile that spread across his
lips.
Her father always gave me an uneasy feeling and I never really knew why.
“It’s nice to see you again, Lila,” he said, kindly.
“You as well, Alpha,” I said, bowing my head slightly to him as I was taught to do to Alpha’s that I don’t
consider family.
“I received a mindlink from your father yesterday calling for an Emergency Alpha meeting tomorrow
afternoon. Do you happen to know what that’s about?”
“I’m not really sure,” I said, swallowing a lump in my throat. It wasn’t a complete lie; I’m really not sure
what my father would like to speak to them about. But I had a feeling it was because of everything
going on, he wanted all Alphas and their packs to remain safe.
“I guess I’ll find out tomorrow,” he said thoughtfully. “You are getting back awfully late.”
“Oh, yes. I guess I lost track of time,” I told him.
“Did your father drop you off?” He asked, staring off in the direction Enzo’s car went. I’m glad he didn’t
recognize the car.
“No, my uncle did,” I lied, giving him my best innocent smile.
“I see,” he said, glancing back at me. “How about I take you, girls, inside? I didn’t want Sarah to get in
trouble for arriving late, so I was going to speak to your dorm advisor.”
“Thank you, that would be great,” I said, beaming at him.
I turned with them, and we started to head inside.
“Oh, Sarah… I wanted to apologize for the other day. I lost my cool and I shouldn’t have,” I told her,
peering at her side profile, trying not to notice how washed away she looked.
She glanced at me, narrowing her eyes.
“Why are you apologizing?” She asked, furrowing her brows together. “I crashed your bake sale with an
ice cream truck.”
“Yeah, but I should have remembered that it was all for the student. I shouldn’t have gotten mad at you
for being there. It wasn’t right of me.”
She stared at me for a moment longer with an expression I couldn’t read, but then she turned away and
muttered, “Whatever.”
I was hoping we could start fresh, but I didn’t really see that happening.
“Whoever wins this election, I hope we can put our differences behind us and remember that it’s the
students that matter the most. Not ourselves,” I said to her when it was clear she wasn’t going to say
anything more.
“That’s very wise of you, Lila,” Alpha Jonathan said from behind me. “Your father must be very proud.”
I didn’t say anything and neither did Sarah.
When we got to our section of the dorm, Eileen Carter, a middle-aged plump woman with curly blonde
hair and bright purple glasses, stood before us with her hands on her hips. She was also the dorm
advisor.
Eileen was the kind of woman that changed her glasses so frequently, I never knew what color she was
going to wear. It usually matched her clothes but, in this case, she wore a yellow floral nightgown that
dropped down to her ankles.
“Curfew was over an hour ago,” she seethed, staring between the two of us. “All students, except
vampires, were expected to be in their dorms and resting before classes tomorrow.”
Vampires had inverted days and nights. They take night classes because the sun hurts them. Regular
students are allowed to leave their dorms at 6 a.m. and are expected to return for the night at 9 p.m.
Vampires were allowed to their dorms at 6 pm, which is when the sun usually sets, and are expected to
return for the day at 7 am, which is when the sun rises.
We do have some overlap but only for a couple of hours and then we don’t usually see them for the
rest of the day.
On Friday and Saturday nights our curfew is lifted because most students go home, but on Sunday
curfew is back in place and it was almost 10:30 pm when we arrived at our section of the dorm.
Eileen Carter, our dorm advisor, was anything but happy.
“What do you have to say for yourselves?” Eileen hissed, still staring between us.
“My apologies, Miss Carter. I’m afraid it was my fault. I was supposed to drive the girls here and I got
pulled into a meeting that took a bit longer than planned. Then I treated them to dinner before we
came back,” Alpha Jonathan said, giving her a genuine smile.
I was amazed that he was able to lie so easily. l
It was clear she didn’t realize he was there, and she was startled to see him.
“Oh, Alpha!” She said, bowing her head. “I didn’t realize…. I’m so sorry.”
“It’s no problem at all. You are only doing your job; I can’t fault you for that.”
She blushed and nodded before looking at me and then Sarah.
“Off to your dorms,” she ordered. “Hurry now.”
“Good night,” I said to her before making my way toward the stairway that led to the dorms.
“Have a good night, Lila…” I heard the darkening tone of Alpha Jonathan behind me, and I turned to see
his dark eyes pouring into mine.
Something about him gave me such a creepy vibe, but I smiled anyway.
“You too, Alpha.”
Then, I turned and went to my dorm
