My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Lila’s POV As soon as class ended, I went to the library to meet up with Kay. She was already there and hard at work when I arrived. She looked up at me and smiled when I sat down. “Ready to get to work?” I asked, grabbing one of her open notebooks and an extra pen. She nodded eagerly and showed me where she was with her recent assignments. She was taking some strange classes that I didn’t even know we offered at this school. Such as spellcasting, the history of sorcerers, and potions. Most of these classes were for withes because Kay was the first fairy we had at this school. But these courses could also be helpful to fairies as well. She was also taking normal classes like Math, History of Shifters, and Chemistry. I took these level classes last semester and everything came as easy to me. Despite Tiffany Prescott’s praise of Kay’s academic success from her old school, it still came as a surprise to me how knowledgeable she truly was. We worked at a quick pace, and she was able to obtain all the information I had given to her. She was like a sponge. It only took us a couple of hours to finish and by the end, I was exhausted and starving. “Want to get dinner?” I asked as we packed up our things. She nodded with a pleased smile. “I’m starving,” she breathed. Together we walked from the library and across the campus until we reached the dining hall. It was already crowded with flooded students. I could smell the delicious scent of food as soon as we entered through the door and my stomach growled. I was excited to see that it was spaghetti and meatball night. Telling from the excited glimmer in Kay’s eyes, I knew she was excited as well. We grabbed our food and went to sit down at a booth in the corner of the room. We were later joined by Becca and Rachel.

“Kay, these are my roommates and friends,” I introduced. “Rachel, Becca, this is Kayla.” They both smiled politely at her, but Rachel’s eyes widened instantly. “Holy shit; you’re a fairy!” She gasped. Kay’s face reddened, but she didn’t deny it. She just nodded. Ê Categories Search… ¨ : © “How can you tell?” Becca asked, peering over at Rachel who sat across from her and next to me. Rachel sat beside Kay and was staring at her with wide eyes.

“Bears have a strange sense of smell,” she said, shrugging. “We can smell fairies easily. I think it has something to do with our history on them.” “I didn’t know bears have a history with fairies,” I said, shaking my head at the thought. “Yes, we learned about it in Bear History,” she explained. “Bears and fairies used to live amongst one another. That is until a bear betrayed the fairies. We haven’t lived in harmony since.” “What did the bears do to the fairies?” I asked, raising my brows. They’d have to be stupid to double-cross a fairy. Fairies were incredibly powerful, and bears weren’t. “It’s unclear,” Rachel answered as she took a bite of her meatball. “But there are a lot of rumors.” “So, we don’t know if it’s actually true or not?” I asked, raising my brows. “It was a really long time ago. There’s not much documentation of that time,” Rachel said, shrugging. “It’s true,” Kay said, her tone very soft. “The bear stole something from us. It was a very long time ago and they were trying to hide it…” “Trying to hide it?” I asked. “Why?” “Because if word got out about it, we would see weak,” she explained, shaking her head. “And we are anything but weak.” “What was stolen?” Becca asked. “I heard something about a magical staff, but I thought that was just a rumor,” Rachel breathed.

At first, I didn’t think Kay was going to respond because of how quiet she was. She stared down at her food questionably, like she was debating whether or not she was going to continue eating or not. But then she lifted her fork, which contained a part of a meatball, to her lips and slowly started to eat. “Yes, it was a magical staff. It’s how fairies restore their magic. If we lose the staff, then we lose the magic.” I gasped at her words, making her look at me. “I had no idea your magic was that fragile,” I said, shaking my head at her words. “So, when that bear stole the staff, they really stole your magic?” She nodded her head once. “Yes,” she answered out loud. “It took a lot to get that stuff back and the fairies had to do it on their own because no one wanted to help. The witches were threatened by us because we were seemingly more powerful than them and had way more abilities. So, they were never on our side. Everyone else either wanted the magic for themselves or to destroy it.” “Some things never change,” I muttered, thinking about my own situation. She nodded, almost like she understood exactly what I meant. “But we eventually got our stuff back, which restored our magic. After that, we didn’t take any more chances. We closed ourselves off from everyone.” “That’s why everyone thinks fairies are nasty and mean creatures,” I said, feeling an overwhelming sense of sadness. “Yes,” she said, sighing. “Because we try to protect ourselves.” I looked at Rachel who was pale in the face as she stared at Kay. “I’m so sorry…” she whispered. “I didn’t know it was that bad.” “You don’t need to blame yourself,” Kay said, giving her a reassuring smile. “It was in the past and I’m hoping for a better future for all species.” “I couldn’t agree more,” I said with a wide grin. We were soon joined by Brody who squeezed in next to Becca. Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Hey, what’s everyone up to?” He asked, taking a large bite of spaghetti. “Talking about fairies,” Becca answered. “Why would we be talking about those creatures?” He asked, grimacing. “Because our new friend Kay is a fairy,” I told him, glaring at him. He nearly choked on his food at my words and then he noticed Kay sitting beside me with a very red face. “Oh, crap. I’m so sorry. I didn’t know…” “And that makes it okay?” Kay asked and I could hear the hurt in her voice. “No… of course not. I wasn’t thinking. I’m so sorry….” “We were talking about the history between fairies and bears and why fairies keep to themselves,” I said in a calm tone trying my best to defuse the situation. “Can I start over?” Brody asked, peering at Kay with large puppy dog eyes. “I’m Brody; I tend to say the wrong things and act like an ass.” “I’m Kayla,” she said, staring down at her food. “But my friends call me Kay…” “It’s nice to meet you. I had never met a fairy before. But I would like to.” “Brody isn’t that bad,” I assured her softly. “I’m sorry the first impression wasn’t great.” She opened her mouth to say something, but a pair of hands slapping down at our table brought us out of our small conversation, startling most of us. I looked up to see Sarah glaring at Kay with her death-ray eyes. “Let’s get one thing straight,” she began to say through her teeth. “Just because we are roomies now doesn’t make us friends. I don’t want you to breathe near me, look at me, or even be in the same room as me. You aren’t allowed in my room, in my bathroom, and you sure aren’t hell touching any of my shit. Do I make myself clear?” Kay nodded and I felt her body tremble slightly. She went to walk away but froze when she saw Brody’s large eyes staring up at her. She stared back

at him for a moment longer like she was trying to figure something out, but then it seemed as if she answered her own question, and she shook her head. “Cut the crap, football boy,” she hissed. “Don’t think I don’t see you staring at me all of the time. Get a life and leave me the fuck alone.” On that note, she turned and left, leaving us all silenced and stunned. “What was that about?” Rachel asked, peering at Brody through her lashes. “Why have you been staring at her?” I was the only one in our friend group that knew that Brody and Sarah were mates. Sarah wasn’t even aware of this because Brody cast a spell on himself to hide his scent from her. I don’t even think anyone else knew that Brody was part witch. Brody opened his mouth to speak, and I could see the nervousness on his face because he refused to look at Rachel as he struggled to answer her question. So, I spoke for him. “Sarah never makes any sense,” I said, shaking my head. “She’s paranoid about everything. I wouldn’t worry too much about it.” “And what about Kay being her roommate?” Becca asked, peering at me and then at Kay. “That part is true,” Kay sighed. “It’s a long story.” “Good luck with that… she’s a nightmare,” Rachel muttered as she began to eat her food again. “So, I’ve heard.” I stole a glance at Brody while the others continued talking. His face was still very red, and he looked so defeated; my heart tugged painfully for him. I wanted to speak with him to see if he was truly okay but then my eye caught something across the dining hall. It was a man sitting at a table with a hat and a pair of glasses. He looked a little too old to be a student

and he wasn’t eating anything. He was just casually reading with his leg crossed over the other. There was something oddly family about him, but then I saw the logo on his jacket. It was small and hardly visible, but once I noticed it, it became clear to me. I also started to recognize who he was because there was only one person, I knew who had his style, and as soon as I recognized him, my blood boiled with anger. It was Alexander. One of my father’s gammas and the guy who rejected Brianna
