Chapter 46


    L’s POV


    “Enjoy the dance!” Megan said at the door as a group of students made their way past her.


    I stood outside, watching as students made their way into the dance. Everybody was dressed up so


    beautifully.


    I wore a long pink dress with noodle straps that went around my neck and hugged my body perfectly. I


    went shopping a few days ago with Rachel. She wore a red and ck dress; it was a lot shorter and


    ended just above her knees, revealing her killer legs.


    My dark hair was curled with an iron, thanks to Rachel, and put back with a pink headband that


    matches


    my dress.


    “I hope you have a good night,” I said to the few students who walked past me.


    “Girl, you look hot!” Rachel said as she walked up to me; she looked absolutely stunning, and Ryan


    was


    on her arm. He looked great as well.


    “As do you,” I said in return. “You look great too, Ryan,” I added with a smile.


    “Thanks,” he said, nodding his head at me.


    Rachel tightened her grip on him and led him to the doors.


    “We’ll see you inside!” She shouted after me; I can’t help but chuckle at my friend.


    There were a couple of security guards standing outside and it made me wonder if Enzo was there yet.


    I


    could sense him, but that could mean that he was anywhere on campus. I had yet to see him walk past


    me.


    He was probably with Connie anyways. It wouldn’t surprise me if they showed up here together.


    A knot had formed in my stomach at the very thought of it.


    Val was also feeling ufortable. I shook the thought out of my mind and turned toward the door.


    It was time to go inside and enjoy myself.

    Enzo was standing off in the corner for most of the night and he was alone. There was no sign of


    Connie anywhere.


    That pleased me, but I paid him no attention. I spent most of the night with Rachel and Ryan.


    There were a few girls that I was friendly with that wanted to join us in a group dance. The music was


    loud, and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. I worried that mayhem would break out


    because we were all wound up. Some were shifting into their inhuman forms. There were bears and


    wolves running around, and it was starting to get a little rough.


    Thankfully, Enzo was on it and put an end to anything that could be potentially dangerous.


    I was right to appoint him as head of the security team.


    I was d when I saw that a couple of members of the board also attended the dance and they


    seemed


    to be enjoying themselves as well.


    “You’ve outdone yourself, L,” Mrs. Laurence said with a kind smile. “I would be happy if you could


    keep themittee going forward and we can n out more events in the future.”


    “That would be great. Thank you so much,” I said in return.


    This morning I had a text from Cassidy-Ann as well saying that my first official day will be on Monday.


    She agreed to wait until after the dance so I could focus on this instead of that. But now that I was


    going to be running the studentmittee and working as her assistant, I was going to be incredibly


    busy.


    I probably won’t have time to even think about Enzo.


    Which will be good because I didn’t want to be thinking about him. It was only a matter of time before


    he rejected me and took Connie as his chosen mate anyway.


    …


    Enzo’s POV


    It was hard not to look at her; she wore the most beautiful dress, and itplimented her skin tone


    perfectly.


    We haven’t spoken since she came to my campus housest night; for some reason, I felt the need to


    exin to her that it was a misunderstanding.


    Max made me believe that she was upset over the fact that Connie was there in nothing but a towel.


    She had to have known that nothing was going on between us. Connie was only a dear friend; sure,


    she


    made a pass at me, but I dismissed her right away.


    Not because of L, but because I wouldn’t cross that boundary with someone I thought of as a sister.


    But as L stood with her group of friends across the dance floor, dancing andughing, I realized she


    hadn’t looked over at me the entire time.


    She can sense me though; I know she can.


    “Do you smell her?” Max breathed, I saw hisrge nose in my mind’s eye, up in the air and sniffing it


    like


    he was in a pastry shop. “The scent of honeysuckle is all around us. It’s her and she smells delicious.”


    “Calm yourself,” I muttered to my wolf, not wanting to get into it with him.


    Thest thing I wanted was for my wolf to lose control. Then everybody would know about me being


    mates with my student.


    I couldn’t have that.


    Especially when the school board was here.


    “Enzo…” I heard the familiar voice of Mrs. Laurence approaching me. “I’m d you made it; L


    certainly


    outdid herself. I must say, I’m impressed.”


    “She’s an impressive woman,” I said in return before I could stop the word froming out of my


    mouth. Mrs. Laurence just stared at me with wide eyes. “As my student, she’s always been very


    impressive,” I rified.


    She looked like she bought it because she smiled.


    “I see,” she said. “I saw her painting of you in the exhibit. It was nice of you to allow her to paint that.”


    “It was a favor to her father,” I lied. “I promised that I would watch over her while she was here, and I


    intend to keep that promise.”


    “That’s very noble of you, Enzo,” Mrs. Laurence said with a grin. “I was just about to leave because it


    looks like everything is handled here. If you run into any issues, please call me. I’m sure the students


    are


    in good hands with you and your security team watching over them.”


    “Yes, mam,” I answered, giving her a head nod as she walked away.


    I turned back to L and this time, I noticed she was watching me. There was a curious look in her


    eyes,


    and I realized it was because she wanted to know what Mrs. Laurence was talking to me about.


    Once she noticed that I noticed her, I gave her a smirk and watched as her features grew red.


    She turned away from me quickly to talk with her friends again. She was avoiding me, or she didn’t


    want


    me to know that she noticed me.


    She was ying a game and it was oddly enough a turn-on for me and my member.


    Our moment in the bathroom was fresh in my mind and I wanted to finish where we left off.


    I took a step toward her; I was going to pull her away. I knew it was probably something I shouldn’t do,


    but I was giving in to my wolf’s request. If I didn’t, he would lose control and I’d be screwed.


    But just as I started to get near her, I paused when I saw that she was talking to a boy.


    I knew the boy to be the school’s baseball pitcher, Brody.


    He was giving her a lopsided grin and she was chuckling at whatever stupid thing he was saying.


    He held out a hand for her and I smirked, knowing that she was going to decline it. Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    A smirk that instantly vanished when she epted his outstretched hand and went with him to the


    dance floor
