Filed To Story: Falling for the Alpha As a Student Novel
“She’ll be fine,”
I said, shaking my head. “She’s just mellow dramatic. My parents will take care of it.”
“Don’t know why they allow that jerk in this packhouse. He only causes issues,”
she said, folding her arms across her chest.
“Who even is that?”
Becca asked, approaching with Brody who was staring off in the direction of my father’s office.
“He’s Flynn’s best friend,”
I answered. “The future Alpha of the Stonewood pack.”
“That’s a future Alpha?”
Brody asked, raising his brows. “He better shape up before he’s put in charge.”
“He’s been training with both his father and mine,”
I explained. “For the sake of his pack, I hope he shapes up.”
Once I finished cleaning the mess, I helped myself to some food and then went to join Bri and Alexander at the table on the far side of the dining room while Brody and Becca fixed their own plates at the buffet table.
“So, tell me… how was the sex between you and Enzo?”
Bri blurted out excitedly.
“Brianna!”
I scolded, glancing at Alexander who looked unphased, but also curious.
“Oh please, he’s my mate. Of course, he already knows,”
Brianna chuckled. “Just tell us! Are you two officially an item now?”
“Honestly, I don’t know,”
I said, my face reddening. “We always said while we were in Monstro that our relationship couldn’t come back home with us for obvious reasons. But I just found out he quit being a teacher…”
“What?”
Bri gasped. “Did he quit because of you?”
“He said he did,”
I admitted, blushing. “He said he quit because he can’t stop thinking about me and that he loves me…”
Brianna squealed at my words, causing some others to glance in our direction.
“Did you say it back?”
That question came from Alexander; he was now just as invested as Bri. They truly were perfect for each other.
“I didn’t really have the chance to say anything. We were interrupted by my mom and then he left quickly after.”
“Are you going to say it back?”
Bri asked, raising her brows.
That was a loaded question; I wasn’t sure. I knew how Val was feeling, but I had this strange feeling in the pit of my stomach that Enzo wasn’t telling me something. Like he was keeping something from me.
…
Enzo’s POV
It felt like a long trip back to my pack, but it felt good to be back.
Beta Ethan was the first to greet me and he had a grim look on his face as I got out of the car.
“They are back for the third time this month,”
Ethan told me, taking hold of my bags to bring them inside. “I won’t let them in the packhouse, but they are on the back patio.”
I nodded my head and said nothing as I made my way around the packhouse and toward the patio. The patio overlooked the large chunk of land that held the battlegrounds/arena, the garden, and the pool yard.
There were three large men wearing armor that sat on the patio, waiting for my arrival. I recognized one of them to be my father’s former beta.
“Why are you on my land?”
I asked, not wanting to deal with the small talk.
“You know exactly why we are here. We can smell it… the Volana wolf. Your pack reeks of the stench of a Volana. You need to hand it over or your pack will pay the price.”
Lila’s POV
“I wish you didn’t have to go back so soon,”
Bri pouted as she watched me pack my things. “I’m going to miss you.”
“At least I’m not going to be across the world,”
I told her, giving her a small smile. “I’m only a phone call away.”
“I know,”
she sighed, lying across my bed, and staring up at me sadly.
It’s been a few days since I returned home from Monstro. Becca and Brody had gone back to their own packs to get themselves ready for this semester as well.
Still no word on Rachel.
I haven’t heard from Enzo at all since his love confession, which only furthers my suspicions that something is up and he’s not telling me the entire truth.
I have texted and called him a couple of times, but he hasn’t been responding or answering. Part of me almost wants to go to his packhouse and find out what’s really going on.
This semester didn’t start until Monday, and it was Friday, so I would have time to go there. But I was assigned a new room that I needed to settle into and plus they were doing an orientation tonight that I couldn’t miss.
I could find some time to go this weekend.
“Lila, are you almost packed? You should be leaving soon,”
my mother said, poking her head through the door.
“Almost ready,”
I said in return.
She smiled at me before leaving and I looked back at Bri.
“You have your mate now. You’ll be fine,”
I assured her.
She sighed and nodded.
“Speaking of mate, have you heard from yours?”
I frowned and shook my head.
“Sadly, no,”
I answered. “I called him a couple of times, but he hasn’t answered. I was thinking of going to his packhouse this weekend at some point.”
“Are you going to tell him you love him back?”
“Well, I still feel like he’s not being completely honest with me, and I would like to speak with him before I decide anything. His plan has always been to reject me after graduation. I’d like to find out for certain if he changed his mind about that.”
Brianna went with me downstairs where my family was waiting for me to say goodbye. Aiden had my car ready for me and parked out front. He was quick to grab my things and bring them to the trunk of my car for me while I hugged my family.
“Call me once you get to school,”
my mother breathed as she held me tighter.
“I will,”
I promised.
