My Professor Is My Alpha Mate

Chapter 0491 Lila’s POV \ “Oh, my goddess; did you hear what happened last night?” Kay asked as she ran up to Becca and me in the dining hall.

I'had a tray of food she almost knocked ' over in the process of grabbing my arm excitedly.

“What's up?” I asked, trying not to sound too annoyed with her. Looking at her excited face though, the annoyance melted away. € “Everybody got their powers back!” She nearly screamed and on cue, others started clapping excitedly around her.

“Everybody?” I asked, raising my brows, and looking around.

“All the witches, and those with y abilities,” she answers, “Yes!”

, “That's incredible!” Becca said, mimicking my thoughts, “Thank i goodness for that.” A “Yeah,” I agreed, relieved that everything was restored to normal.

“Yup,” she said, her eyes twinkling with happiness. “And I know how it l happened.” I I raised my brows at her as we made our way through the dining hall and toward an empty table, the only other table available.

“Do tell,” I said, sitting down beside Becca.

Kay sat in front of me and leaned in close, lowering her voice so only we could hear her. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“It’s the guardian of the earth,” Kay said, completely and utterly surprising me. Of / course, I knew that the guardian was involved, but how did Kay?

“The guardian of the earth?” Becca asked, looking at me and then back at Kay. “Who is that?” ¢ “She’s our earth mother,” Kay explained simply. “She’s the protector of the earth; like the ground we stand on. As a forest fairy, we worship her like a goddess. We work closely with the guardian and her orb children. I can sense her magic a mile away and this is definitely her magic.” “If she protects the earth, then why would she restore your magic?” Becca asked, taking a bite of her spaghetti.

“I’m assuming whatever took our magic was also hurting the earth,” Kay said, shrugging. “Her earth.” My stomach clenched; I knew exactly what was hurting the earth. It was darkness and I also knew the guardian \ wasn’t going to be able to keep darkness away for long. Even Aura said that '- darkness would grow and soon her barriers wouldn't be strong enough to

keep it out.

» “I'wonder what was hurting the earth,” I Becca breathed, and I could hear the- worry in her tone.

“Whatever it is, the guardian is protecting us from it,” Kay said, a smile planted on her lips. “Thank goddess for.

her. I don’t know what we'd do without her. But I'm so happy that our magic is back!” “That’s really incredible,” I said, trying to give her a non-bothered smile.

I'looked down at my own plate of spaghetti, suddenly not hungry. I was too worried about this darkness that’s been conjured. But I didn’t want to tell them this because it would only worry them and cause the school to go into a frenzy.

“Are you okay, Lila?” Becca asked, furrowing her brows at me.

"~ Iblinked a couple of times and looked at

her.

» “Yeah, of course,” I'm just thinking about the committee. — “Oh, right. We have a meeting tonight, right?” Kay asked, excitedly.

“Actually, we need some more members before we start any meetings. I was going to go around campus after lunch and post some fliers,” I told them.

I grabbed my backpack from under the table and rummaged through it until I came across a manila folder; within the folder held the stack of fliers. I handed I one to Becca and another to Kay so they could read them.

“Anyone wanting to become a committee member can seek our Lila, the president of the club, after dinner hours in the . student lounge,” Becca read.

“She will be there until curfew; come join a fun committee with awesome people

, and help make this school incredible,” Kay finished.

} \ “Ilike it,” Becca said with an approved smile. “I can help put fliers up once we are done eating.”
