Chapter 41
L’s POV
Everything happened so fast; my heart was racing at lightning speed as Enzo lifted me onto the sink.
Instinctively, I wrapped my legs around him; mainly to keep myself from falling off the sink, but also
because it just felt right.
I felt him between my legs, pressing himself against me and growing through his pants. I wrapped my
arms around the back of his neck and felt his lips closing in around mine.
I closed my eyes as he kissed me.
His lips were so soft and inviting; everything about him was just so good. The way he smelled, the way
he felt, the way my heart raced whenever I was around him, and I can’t forget about the sweet bliss Val
felt.
I could feel her runningps in my mind’s eye and howling in delight as Enzo continued the embrace.
He bit onto my bottom lip and brought it into his mouth hungrily. At this moment, he wanted me as
much as I wanted him.
Nothing was in my mind; I didn’t think about Connie or what she had said previously, and I wasn’t
thinking about how Enzo had treated me.
Is this what it truly feels like to have a mate?
His hands ran down my back, sending goosebumps across my flesh as he yed with the zipper on
my
dress. He wanted to take my dress off and I wanted to let him.
Just as I heard the zipper being sent down my back, the door of the bathroom swung open, and I heard
a loud gasp!
Enzo jumped away from me like I was infected, and I found myself vulnerable on the sink, about to fall.
Thankfully, he realized quickly what he had done and caught me before Ipletely fell to the ground.
“L?!” I heard a familiar voice as the door mmed shut andtched.
I turned to see Brianna standing before us with wide and rmed eyes.

“Oh, my goddess!” She breathed, staring between Enzo and me.
“Bri…” I said, trying to keep the nervousness out of my voice. I struggled to get my zipper back up,
something she had also noticed. She nced down and I realized that Enzo’s manhood was very
much
still excited and still visible through his dress pants.
He turned away from her and she broke her eyes from him to look at me.
“I can exin,” I tried to say; before I had the chance of saying anything, she turned away from me.
I saw a sh of hurt on her face before she fully turned her body from me and that broke my heart
more than anything.
“I need to go,” she muttered.
I went to say something to her, but she had already run from the bathroom.
I was breathing heavily; the shame was lying thick, and I couldn’t even form the proper words. I looked
up at Enzo with sad eyes and he met my gaze.
“You should go after your friend,” he muttered.
He seemed casual and back to his normal self; I will never understand how he can do that so easily. He
cleared his throat and without saying another word, he was also leaving the bathroom.
I waited a couple of minutes before I left the bathroom too. Thankfully, nobody seemed to notice my
absence. Everybody was still cooing and gawking at the paintings. Cassidy-Ann was still talking to the
same people she was before, and my father was talking to some of the other Alphas. Enzo was
heading
in their direction to join in on the conversation.
I swallowed the lump that had formed in my throat and went outside. I knew Brianna would be out
there, probably waiting for her cab home.
I found her standing at the curb with her hands folded across her bare arms. I knew she was crying
without even looking at her face based on the sniffling and the small whimpering that I could hear as I
approached.
“Bri…” I said in a low and calm tone, standing beside her I stared at her saddened side profile. “I didn’t
mean to hurt you.”
“Whom you get with is not my business…” she muttered. “But I thought that as your best friend, you
would tell me these things…”
“I know… “I breathed. “It just kind of happened and—”
“With your professor out of all people?” Bri said, shooting her tear-filled eyes at me. “And an Alpha?
Since when is that your thing, L?”
“It’s not my ‘thing’,” I muttered, shaking my head at the thought. “I can’t control whom I’m mated with.
Believe me… I’ve tried.”
Her eyes widened and she took a step back in shock.
“Mate? “ She gasped. “Alpha Enzo is your mate?”
She said that a little too loudly, so I shushed her and covered her mouth with my hands.
“Nobody knows, Bri. You can’t tell anybody,” I pleaded.
She swiped my hand away but remained still as she stared around my desperate and serious face.
“You’re being serious…” she whispered in awe. “He’s actually your mate…”
I nodded my head once, keeping my eyes locked on hers.
“I wish I wasn’t serious. This isn’t how I envisioned my mate.”
“How could you not tell me?!” She said, the sadness was gone from her face and was reced with
pure
enjoyment and eagerness.
She was happy about this news.
“I haven’t told anybody,” I admitted. “I’m not sure what to think of it. He doesn’t want a mate and I
don’t know if I want him as my mate.”
She rose her brows at my words.
“You both looked like you wanted each other very much a little bit ago,” she said, a smirk appearing on
her lips.
I felt my face warming and I nced down at my feet.
“I don’t know,” I told her with a quick shrug. “He isn’t the romantic type. He’s not always nice to me… he
cares more about his work than anything else. I’ve heard from everywhere that he doesn’t want a mate
because he finds them to be a distraction.” I paused for a moment as I met her eyes once again. “I
don’t
think he believes in love, Bri…”
“And you need someone who’s as crazy about love as you are,” she said with a sigh; it wasn’t a
question.
Brianna knew me better than anyone because we’d known each other our whole lives. I should have
told her about this to begin with and not hidden it from her. I didn’t me her for being upset with me
for that.
She knew how important finding my mate was to me. I had envisioned the perfect romance and Enzo
did not live up to that expectation.
She had a sad look in her eyes when I nodded at her statement.
“Maybe there’s more to him than you know,” Bri suggested with a kind smile. “You never know unless
you try.”
“I don’t think he wants to try.”
“That moment in the bathroom looked like he wanted to try,” Bri said, a sly smile spreading across her
lips.
“It was a moment of weakness. His wolf was taking over, and I was losing control over mine. I don’t
think that’s something that’ll happen again,” I told her with a sigh of my own.
The sun was setting, and I had just remembered I wanted to visit Ba before visiting hours are over.
“Oh! I need to get to the hospital,” I said quickly, ncing back at the exhibit. I didn’t want to leave
without saying goodbye, but I was also cutting it close to visiting hours and needed to leave right away
if I wanted to see her tonight.
“Go on,” Bri said, nudging me away from the exhibit. “I’ll cover for you.”
I smiled, relieved, at her and then I hugged her tightly. Content rights by N?velDr//ama.Org.
“Thank you,” I breathed. “I love you.”
“Love you too, boo,” she said in return just as we parted ways. “Call meter!” She shouted after me.
…
I managed to get to the hospital 30 minutes before visiting hours ended. When I got to Ba’s room,
she was lying in her bed and scrolling through her phone casually.
I could hear the beeping of her heart monitor and it seemed steady. She had a couple of IVs in her
arms, and she looked pale as a ghost.
I felt sick knowing I did this to her.
She nced up at me and her eyes widened as soon as I walked into the room.
“Ba…” I breathed, trying to hold back the tears I wanted to cry.
I wasn’t sure what I was expecting, but I certainly wasn’t expecting what came out of her mouth.
“What did you do to me…?”
