My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Enzo's POV

The waiter managed to get me the security footage from the night before and sure enough, as soon as I left the table, Bethany was sprinkling something into my wine glass. The waiter went over to the table and pretended to accidentally trip and spilled water on the table and on Bethany.

While she was distracted, he switched the glasses.

At least I was able to prove my innocence now, however, it was only one glass that she drugged. Which made me wonder what the hell happened to me last night.

“There's no way we would have slept with Connie unless something happened,” Max agreed.

The waiter profusely apologized for not telling me sooner and I thanked him for his hard work.

I went back to the hospital with the footage, and once it was reviewed, all charges and accusations were dropped immediately.

“I have no words..." Alpha John said after his third time watching the video. “I am so sorry for not believing you, Alpha Enzo.”

“She's your daughter and I understand that you care and worry about her. I don't blame you for that,” I said to him, trying to sound compassionate considering the circumstances. “I'm sorry this happened.”

“I can't believe she was trying to drug you. What was she thinking?”

“The only person who can answer that is currently in a coma,” I said, shaking my head with dismay written all over my face. “I'll keep her in my thoughts until she wakes.”

“Thank you,” John said, lowering his gaze.

I glanced at the clock and realized just how late in the afternoon it was.

I was late.

He did.

Thankfully, I was quick enough to dodge him; I did a backflip and jumped over him just as he neared me. He looked surprised by my quick motion.

I don't think Brody had ever seen me fighting like this before. Once I landed on the ground, I swung my foot around to kick his wolf in the face, but he shifted back into his human form without me even noticing and grabbed my foot with his hand, pulling me out of balance until I landed on the ground.

That was a new move I wasn't prepared for.

He smirked down at me, folding his arms across his chest.

"You practice fighting a human that shifts into their wolf form... but not the other way around?” He asked, raising his brows at me.

“I guess not,” I said, taking his outstretched hand as he pulled me to my feet.

Just as I got my feet, I shifted into my wolf form and ran around the arena as fast as I could. It's been a while since I allowed Val that kind of freedom and she was having a great time. For once, we weren't thinking about Enzo. We were just thinking how great it feels to be running in our wolf form and having no pressure put on us.

I leaped through the air, hearing the sounds of Brody's laughter bouncing off the walls as he watched me whip past him.

I soon stopped running in circles and turned toward him.

For a moment, I saw the nervous look on his face once he realized what was happening. I ran toward him and instead of shifting into his own wolf, he attempted to outrun me in his human form. That was a bold choice, and I knew that wasn't a battle he was going to win.

I pounced, falling through the air, and pushed him to the ground.

He spun around onto his back to face me; my wolf was growling loudly in his face. If I wanted to, I could have torn his throat out. But lucky for Brody, I didn't want to do that. Nor did Val.

We considered him to be a great friend, not an enemy.

But it was nice knowing that I had the upper hand in this situation.

Brody looked nervous for a moment, but then I stopped snarling and eased up on him. I could hear Val laughing in my mind, which made me laugh as well.

Brody soon relaxed and I saw the smug look on his face as is shifted back into my human form.

I remained on top of him, pinning him to the ground and continuing my laughing.

Soon, he was flipping me onto my back and sitting on top of me, pinning me to the ground.

I gasped in shock as I stared up at him.

He had a strong exterior, and he wasn't threatening whatsoever.

I felt comfortable with him, but the more I thought about Brody... the more Val thought about— The slamming of the arena door brought me out of my head and caused Brody to shuffle off me and scramble to his feet.

I sat up, only to be stared at by Professor Enzo.
