I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It by Caroline Above Story

Chapter 253



Lila’s POV

Hazel was in her hospital bed when we arrived at the Calypso Pack Hospital. It only took us about 25

minutes to get there from the city. We wasted no time. She was looking for a lot better than when I last

saw her. Hazel’s wounds were healing nicely, and she didn’t look as thin and wasted away. She was still

hooked up to a couple of different machines; one was monitoring her heart rate and the other was

pumping her with a liquid fluid. The heart monitor had a steady rhythm, which was definitely a good

sign. As we entered the hospital, her assigned doctor was the first to greet us. “She will be able to return

home in the morning, Alpha. She’s going to need plenty of rest and to keep up her hydration. But she’s

looking good,” he said, glancing at Hazel with a fond smile. “Thank you for caring for her, Doctor,” Enzo

said in return. “You look exhausted,” I pointed out, sitting by her bedside. She gave me a faint smile. “I

was given some medication yesterday that kept me asleep all evening last night and day today,” she

said. “I haven’t been sleeping much because I’ve been so worried about the village, and they thought it

would help me. I don’t think they anticipated I’d be asleep this long.” “You mentioned on the phone

that you can feel Jazzy’s magic,” Enzo said, stepping toward her. My eyes widened at his words. “What?”

I gasped. “It’s true… I can feel her dark magic at play. But it’s more than that,” she said, her eyes

darkening. “I can feel darkness.” “Darkness?” I asked, furrowing my brows together. “I’ve only felt this

once before,” she explained. “A long time ago. Jazzy has conjured it before.” “She conjured darkness?”

Enzo asked. “How is that possible?” “It takes a very dark heart and a sacrifice to do it,” Hazel explained;

her expression was grave. “I don’t know what she could want with darkness though. The first time it was

only to cause mayhem to let out the anger she felt when our parents died.” “Mayhem…” I breathed; it

wasn’t a question. I grabbed Enzo’s arm as the thoughts of the mayhem at school yesterday surfaced in

my mind. “Enzo, could it have something to do with what happened at the election yesterday? “What

happened?” Hazel asked us quickly, looking between us. “We were having an election for President of

the student committee, and during this election everybody who has magic became powerless,” he

explained; her face turned mortified as he explained the events that unfolded last night. I thought, for a

moment, that she was going to jump out of bed and run from the room. I had never seen anyone look

quite as terrified as Hazel felt and it made my stomach twist into a tight and unsettling knot. “That

sounds like the mayhem she would cause, yes….” She said, shaking her head with a worried expression.

“He has returned to our lands; but for what reason, I am unsure.” “He?” Enzo asked, furrowing his brows

together. “Darkness is a person?” “It takes the form of a man; though, it can take many different forms.

He goes by the name Zagreus. He’s a dark demon that if given a sacrifice will do her bidding.”

“Darkness acts as her slave?” Enzo asked. “She can control it?” “Nobody can truly control darkness; but if

they have a common goal, he will work with her and do as she please. Just as long as she does what he

pleases as well.” “A sacrifice?” I asked, finding it difficult to use my voice. “In order for him to form fully,

he needs a sacrifice. He feeds off the blood and beating heart of purity. But that one sacrifice won’t be

enough to keep him around. She will need to sacrifice again soon if she wishes to keep him even

longer. Like a payment for his deeds.” “Why would they make students at the school powerless?” Enzo

asked, shaking his head. “It’s not making sense.” Hazel was quiet for a moment as she thought about

how to answer that, but then her eyes widened. She didn’t have to say anything for me to understand

where her head had gone. This time, it was me who answered. “Darkness enjoys mayhem; so, if it

caused mayhem at your school, then that pleases him. However, I fear it’s more than that. Jazzy

wouldn’t conjure him again unless she truly needed something from him.” “Could it have been a test?” I

asked, looking up at Enzo. Enzo looked at me with a worried frown. “A test? Like she was trying to see if

the spell would work?” “Yes,” I answered. “But what could she be planning that requires everyone to lose

their magic and abilities?” We were quiet for a moment as that question weighed in the air. “How did

she even align herself with darkness in the first place?” Enzo asked and I could see he was growing

angry. “How did she discover this Zagreus?” We both looked at Hazel who had gone pale. “When we

were young, our parents died because of a Volana wolf…” Hazel began to explain, making me gasp in

horror. “It was difficult for us both, but Jazzy was much younger and took it even more difficult. She

grew angry and self-isolated despite my efforts to get her to open up and talk to me. She spent a lot of

time in my mother’s garden. I’m not sure how it happened because I wasn’t there… but I ended up

finding our gardener dead. That’s when my sister started to become a dark witch. This darkness she

called Zagreus was the one who gave her dark magic. I never understood it myself, but something

happened that hurt him enough to slither back to wherever he came from.” “If Zagreus really has

returned to our land, what are we going to do?” I asked, staring up at Enzo who had a grave look on his

face. “You must stay away from her,” Hazel warned. “She’s incredibly dangerous and now that Zagreus

has returned to her, she’s even more dangerous. There’s no telling what she will do. Especially because

you are a Volana wolf. She hates Volana’s more than anything. I don’t doubt that it has something to do

with your kind.” “We don’t even know where she is,” Enzo murmured, clearly aggravated. “If I can feel

her magic, she isn’t far,” Hazel said. “I’ll send my warriors back out and look for her again,” Enzo assured

her. “We also need to figure out how darkness was defeated the first time,” I said. I shivered at the very

thought; I stepped closer to Enzo, not wanting to be apart from him. “I’m not going to let anything

happen to you,” he said, wrapping me in his arms. “That’s a promise.” Hazel looked uncertain and

worried. “We will return tomorrow to help you home,” Enzo assured her, grasping her hand gently. “Get

some rest.” “I will,” she said. “I can’t wait to get back to my village and to my own bed. I’m sure Luna

Selene is doing a fine job at keeping them protected, but with this new knowledge that darkness has

been conjured, I worry for them.” “I understand,” Enzo said. He took a hold of my hand. “See you

tomorrow,” I said to her as we left the hospital room. My heart was pounding rapidly against my

ribcage; I felt so sick. By the time we got back to his car, I was deep breathing and trying hard to

contain myself. “Hey,” he said, reaching over and taking hold of my hand again. “It’s going to be okay. I

promise.” “If darkness really is lurking around, I’m not sure how we are going to protect the nation from

it. What do you think she’s planning on doing?” “I don’t know, but I’m going to find out.” “Do you think

Xander would know?” I found myself asking. “You don’t think they’re working together, do you?” He was

quiet for a moment as he thought about that. “I’m not sure,” he admitted. “Maybe.” “We should find

out.” “I will find out,” he said, putting extra emphasis on the word I. “You are going to stay far away from

all of this. It’s too dangerous for your involvement.” “I can’t just do nothing,” I said, pressing my lips

firmly together. Sitting around and doing nothing has never been in my nature. “You can’t get involved

in this, Lila. Especially because you don’t have your wolf right now.” I knew he was right, despite not

wanting to believe it. I decided not to argue with him any further; I stared out my window as Enzo drove

through the pack ground and toward the packhouse. I stared up at the night sky I frowned; it seemed

even darker and hazier than usual. There wasn’t a star in sight, and yet it didn’t seem all that cloudy. I

wondered if it had anything to do with Jazzy’s darkness.

….

Enzo’s POV

Xander was exactly where we left him, rotting in the dungeon cell under the packhouse grounds. He

wore cuffs that kept his wounds from healing. He had two black eyes and some nasty cuts on his face.

He was bruised all over and his clothes were badly torn and covered in his blood. I found myself smiling

at his tormented state. Bastien must have had a lot of fun with this asshole. Xander sat against the cold

cement walls, trying to maintain his unsteady breathing as he glared up at me though his swollen eyes.

“Haven’t you had enough?” I asked stepping toward his locked cell and staring down at his pathetic

body. “I could end your suffering if you just tell us the information we seek.” I swear I saw a smile

glimmering on his lips. “And what information is that, Alpha?” “Cut the shit, Xander,” I seethed,

grabbing onto the cell bars. “Who sent you here?” He choked out a laugh, spitting blood onto the

ground. “I gave an oath I wouldn’t say, and I don’t break my oaths,” he replied. “Are you working with

that dark witch, Jazzy?” I asked in a growl. “Did you help her escape?” “And align myself with darkness? I

think not,” Xander scoffed. “Why are you after Lila then?” I asked, my anger boiling over. “Who said I

was after her?” He asked as he coughed more blood onto the ground. “You kidnapped her, you

asshole!” “And yet she couldn’t escape on her own without you helping her,” Xander hissed. “She’s

doomed for what’s coming.” “What the hell are you talking about?” I found myself asking.

“Let me out, Enzo,”Max whined within me.“I want to rip his throat out and tear into him. Let me out so I

can fuck him up!”

“You better talk soon, or I’ll let my wolf have you,” I warned. Xander only laughed which turned into a

gross hack. “You’ll find out soon enough and when you do, you’ll wish you never locked me in this cage.

Mark my word, Darkness is coming and he’s coming with a vengeance.
