My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Enzo’s POV

Lila sat with me on my bed as I called my mother. She answered on the second ring.

“Enzo? Hi, sweetheart,” she said on the other end of the phone. “How are you doing?”

“I’m afraid this isn’t a casual phone call,” I told her gently. “I’m calling because I need a favor.”

“Of course, what can I do for you?” She asked, and I heard the concern in her voice.

“Your witch that keeps your village protected; may I speak with her?”

She was quiet for a moment.

“Hazel?” She asked. “She’s in her home. I can go grab her though; it’s not far.”

“Thank you, Mom,” I said as I met Lila’s worried eyes.

“Is everything okay?” My mother asked and I heard her getting her shoes on to leave her house. “What

do you need her for?”

“Lila was given a protein shake by someone we don’t trust. I sent it to my pack clinic for testing and the

test results are coming up strange,” I explained. “The researcher thinks it’s being masked by magic and

only a with can uncover what it is.”

My mother gasped.

“Oh, my goddess,” she breathed. “Did Lila drink any of it?”

Lila, who was listening to the phone from me.

“Hi, Diana,” she said sweetly, making me smile. “I did drink some of it, it hurt my throat and mouth.

Enzo

told me that the doctor thinks it’s wolfbane, but we won’t know for sure until we get rid of whatever is

masking it.”

“Oh, you poor thing,” my mother breathed. “I’m almost at her house. Give me one minute.”

“Thank you so much. We really appreciate this,” she said, looking up at me.

She handed the phone to me, and I heard my mother knocking on a door, presumably the door to

Hazel’s house.

Soon, I heard some muffled murmurs that I couldn’t understand. After a few minutes, a new voice

appeared on the other end.

“Hello… this is Hazel?”

Her voice was gentle and sounded a bit older.

“I’m so sorry to bother you, Hazel. Thank you for taking my phone call,” I began to say.

“Anything for Diana’s son,” she said after a short pause. “I know you don’t remember much about me

because I remained at home most of the time during your childhood, but I do care very much about

you and this village.”

“I appreciate that,” I said in return. “We need your help with something.”

“Your mother mentioned something about a protein mix being poisoned with wolfsbane?”

“We only think it’s wolfbane. We don’t know for sure; but whatever it is, it’s being masked with

something, and the researcher thinks it’s magic.”

“I see…” she said, and I knew from her tone that she was frowning. “And you need a witch to uncover

it?”

“Yes,” I answered. “Is that something you’d be able to do?”

She was quiet for a moment.

“I don’t let many people see me,” she breathed. “You see… I’ve been in hiding for a long time. It’s part

of

why I don’t leave my home. I’ve been hunted for a very long time.”

“Hunted?” I asked; Lila’s eyes widened for she too heard what I did. “Why have you been hunted?”

“Because I have befriended Volana wolves. Those who are after Volana’s, including many other

witches,

find me a threat. They think I might know something that could be useful to them. I have been taken

before and tortured…” she stopped speaking as she gathered her thoughts. “They did unspeakable

things to me; they were asking me all sorts of questions about the Volanas I’m in communication with…

it was your mother and this village that saved me and ever since then I refuse to allow that to happen to

me again.”

“I’m so sorry that happened to you, Hazel…” I said, shaking my head.

I had no idea that happened; I must have been so young that my mother kept it from me. I did always

wonder how my mother came across a witch that she trusted enough to keep us protected though.

I knew of the witch, and I knew where she lived, but I never saw her. She’d only been for around a year

before I was taken to the Calypso pack. Up until that point, we were unprotected and constantly in

danger.

“I wouldn’t be able to just go to your pack and to allow anyone who isn’t a Volana into our barrier I’d

have to release the barrier…” she explained. “I can’t risk that…”

“I understand your concerns, Hazel. I don’t blame you for being worried. But I can promise you that no

danger will come to you in our pack,” I assured her. “I don’t want you to release the barrier because it’s

the only thing protecting my mother and others. But I can have my best warriors escort you to the pack

and stay by your side the entire time.”

She was quiet and I could sense her hesitation.

“This is important…” I said calmly. “My mate, a Volana wolf, might be in danger and I need the proof

before any action is taken. I don’t know any other witches I can trust. You know how rare they are to

come across.”

“Yes…” she breathed. “Good witches are a rarity these days,” she agreed. “If anything happens to me,

this village will fall…”

“That’s one of the reasons why keeping you protected is so important to me. Not just for your wellbeing,

but my mother’s too. I know what’s at stake and I can promise you… I won’t let anything happen

to you.”

She was quiet for a moment longer.

“Please, Hazel…” I pleaded. “This is important.”

She soon sighed.

“Okay…” she finally said. “Have your warriors meet me outside in the morning. It’s better to do this

during the daylight. 9 am sharp.”

Third person POV

Starcove is known to be the home of many sorcerers, but humans also live there as well, and they

have

no idea of the darkness that lurks in each corner.

Typically, a werewolf wouldn’t be caught dead in such a town; it reeked of humans. Not to mention

these witches weren’t really known for their friendliness.

However, Paul had made himself familiar with Starcove; more importantly, he made himself familiar

with

Jasmine, also known as Jazzy, a witch who specialized in dark magic and owned the witchery shop.

Her dark long swirls of hair draped around her narrow features, almost covering her emerald eyes. She

was a petite and very pretty woman who wore tight clothing and a lot of jewelry.

Her rosy lips turned into a sly smile when Paul entered her shop, and she leaned across the counter

like

a cat stretching out her arms. She placed her hands under her chin and batted her long lashes at him

as

he neared her.

“I hope you’ve come for some good news,” she purred.

“My army has gotten stronger, and they are hungry for blood,” Paul told her, stopping just short of the

counter. “I don’t want us to wait any longer. We’ve been preparing for years; we’re more than ready for

the takedown.”

She narrowed her eyes at him, looking at him like she had just struck her in the face.

“But you haven’t gotten what you set out to get?” She asked, furrowing her brows together.

“I don’t need it. Once I take him down, the rest will crumble, and I’ll have all the power I—”

“Are you out of your goddamn mind?!” She hissed, standing straight, and staring up at him. He could

see the flash of her fury through her eyes as she stared at him. “Do you honestly think you and your

army of rogues are strong enough to take out that pathetic Alpha? “

“You said it yourself, he’s pathetic.”

“He might be… but his army is strong. He has a lot of allies from various packs, not to mention Volana

wolves on his side,” she seethed. “No army is strong enough to take on the powers of a Volana. His

own

mother is a Volana. Regardless of whether she has powers or not, that stupid witch in her village I’m

sure is hiding others.”

“Maybe if you hadn’t let her escape we’d know where the others are hiding” Paul seethed in return.

“It wasn’t my fault,” she scoffed. “Your army was supposed to keep the perimeter guarded. It’s just

proof

that you are all too weak to handle this without the powers of a Volana. But just wait until she leaves

her

precious barrier. I’ll be able to sense her and then I’ll get her back. This time, I won’t let her out of my

grasp.”

“It’s been years since she left that barrier,” he growled. “What makes you think she ever will?”

“If you find a Volana on your own, then I won’t need that dumb witch,” Jazzy muttered.

“I’ve gotten you many Volanas throughout these years and none of them are good enough,” Paul

argued. “We’ve hunted many Volanas and none of them were good enough, so we killed them per your

orders.”

“Because we don’t need just any Volana,” she hissed. “We need THE Volana. The strongest one

amongst

them all and until we find that Volana, all the others will never be good enough. We will never defeat

that Alpha and his army without the powers of this strong Volana.”

“And we’ll be able to harvest her abilities as easily as a regular Volana?” Paul asked.

“We’ve been over this; you need to mark her… once you do that, then, you’ll be able to harvest her

abilities.”

“And you she’s definitely a female?”

“Yes; that’s about all I know about her” Jazzy answered. “I also know she’s a lot closer than she was

previously. Which means we are a lot closer.”

He sighed and nodded.

“Okay,” he finally said.

“Don’t return until you find me that Volana; in the meantime, I’ll keep holding out hope for that witch to

leave that barrier. I know exactly how to capture her once she does.”

He turned away and went towards the doorway without another word.

He needed to find that Volana wolf. Wherever and whoever might be
