I Kissed My Professor And He Liked It by Caroline Above Story
Chapter 214

Lila’s POV

Diana quickly told me the stuff she was going to need from the infirmary and gave me a backpack that

she took from one of the kids, now I just had to hope the supplies weren’t destroyed. I made my way

back up to the surface where the fighting grew louder.

I ignored the rapid beating of my heart and made it back into the brick building. Without a second

thought, I ran through the doors and back out into the battle. I kept the dagger in my grip as I made

my way through the battle.

As I ran, I dodged many attacks and did a few attacks of my own. I jumped over rogues and stabbed

them in the chest with my dagger. I screamed out battle cries as I did so knowing that it would be the

last thing they hear when they meet their fatal end.

I caught a glimpse of Enzo again, but he was too preoccupied with fighting the ambush of rogues that

happened to surround him to notice me. For a moment, my entire body froze. I wanted to shield him

and use my abilities to help him fight that ambush, but I needed to save my strength to shield the

entire village when the time was right.

Thankfully, my father wasn’t too far away, and he jumped in to help Enzo along with a few other

warriors. I allowed myself to breathe as I ran toward the long building that Diana had described to be

the infirmary.

As she said though it was completely on fire and the wooden blanks that made up the building were

falling to the ground and burning immediately.

It would be a miracle if anything in that building managed to survive, but I needed to check.

I raised my hands around my body and imagined a calming and cooling shield of light to circle my body

and protect me from any of the flames that were to scorch my skin. Soon, I felt the glow of my personal

shield surrounding my body and I no longer felt the intense heat of the fire that lit up the building.

I ran through the broken doors of the infirmary, thankful that my shield was working, and the fire wasn’t

negatively affecting me. However, it made it difficult to see anything through the dark smoke that

covered my vision.

A wooden plank fell from the ceiling, making me jump out of the way before it hit me completely.

Diana said there should be a first aid kit somewhere in here; she also needed a couple of blood bags,

antibiotics, extra bandages, and possibly water if there was any in here.

My heart sank when I saw that every bed that was once in this infirmary was completely on fire and

turning into ash before my eyes. I hoped to the goddess that nobody was in those beds when they

caught on fire.

I ran through the open flames, my shield only faltering slightly. I winced as the flames touched my flesh,

but the shield returned and protected me from further damage.

There was a desk on the far side of the room that the flames hadn’t reached yet. They were close

though, which meant I had to hurry to them. I quickly ran the rest of the way to the desk and frowned

when I saw there was nothing.

But there were drawers.

I opened the drawers and a flood of relief washed over me when I saw some bandages. But that was

about it. I frowned and stared around the desk; my eyes caught something underneath and when I bent

down to check it out, I smiled when I saw the first aid kit.

Now I needed blood bags and antibiotics. There was a door nearby that I assumed led into the

bathroom. I pulled the door open, relieved to see that there was no fire in the bathroom. Everything

looked intact for right now.

I opened the cabinets that sat above the sink and grabbed as many of the medicine bottles as I could,

shoving everything in the bag that Diana had given me. I wasn’t sure what any of these meds were, but

anything was better than nothing.

I didn’t see any blood bags though and I’m not even sure what this first aid contained, but another

explosion sounded, shaking the entire building and soon wooden planks were caving in quickly.

I had to get out of there before the entire building collapsed.

My shield was starting to falter again as well, I wasn’t strong enough to keep it going.

How was I going to be strong enough to shield this entire village?

Worry consumed me but I brushed it out of my mind; one task at a time, Lila. I told myself as I ran

through the front doors of the infirmary, stepping into the lightly breezed air. But my relief for fresh air

didn’t last long; I was soon being attacked by more rogues. They were aiming to take the supplies I had

gathered.

The worst part was…I left my dagger somewhere. I had to fight them by hand.

I punched one in the face and kicked another, grabbing one of the wolf’s arms and shoving him to the

ground like a wrestler. I used some of my strength to use my abilities and conquer the electricity that

surged through my body, zapping him until he was paralyzed.

The rogue that was with him didn’t stick around to replace out what I’d do to him.

“Lila!” I heard my name being shouted by Enzo who was racing toward me.

I was relieved to see him unharmed and I attempted to run toward him, but my body gave out and I fell

to the ground. I used so much of my strength, I felt too weak now.

He reached me quickly.

“Where are you hurt?” He asked, panic overwhelming him.

“I’m just a little weak,” I breathed. “I’m fine… your mother needs this stuff. She’s in the underground

tunnels,” I said, holding up the bag of supplies.

“I’ll take you to her,” he said as he helped me onto his back.

I smiled my gratefulness at him just before he leaped in the direction of his mother’s safe house. War

still went on around us and it didn’t look like it was going to end anytime soon.

I buried my face in the back of Enzo’s wolf’s neck, trying to shield myself from the battle going on

around us. Innocent people were dying, and I was too weak to truly protect them.

I sniffled as tears managed to escape my eyes and soak over my cheeks. Then a heavy breeze sent a

chill across my body and brushed through my hair, making me lift my gaze just as I saw the blinding

rays of the moonlight eliminating the night’s sky.

My eyes widened when I heard the zapping of electricity in the nearby forest and the screams of rogues

who were caught in the crossfire. Other rogues had taken notice and were also staring in the direction

of the commotion; Enzo didn’t seem phased though. He continued running through the stunned crowd.

A familiar and warm presence consumed me; I was starting to feel a bit more energized and whole

again. I closed my eyes, taking in the new aura that had surrounded the village, listening as the cackling

of electricity echoed through the air.

As we ran, shadows floated from the grounds and began to shape into something unorganizable. I

gawked at the shadows that morphed into one giant being.

I heard rogues barking orders to one another, but they were also being consumed with terror.

I didn’t need to see her to know who was doing all of this; soon, my mother was breaking through the

clearing with her large white wolf howling in fury. She wasted no time to stand by my father who

seemed to have been waiting for her very presence and fight along his side.

“Mom!” I breathed, tears burning in my eyes.

Seeing both my parents in their fighting stance gave me strength and I smiled knowing we were going

to win this battle.

I held onto the shoulders of Enzo’s wolf and lowered himself, giving him permission to go faster. He did

so immediately, and we raced to the safehouse. Once we were inside, he shifted into his human form,

grabbing a pair of pants that was left by one of the men inside the brick building, and together we went

into the tunnels.

Diana stood quickly and ran to me as I handed her the bag.

“Did you get everything?” She asked shock in her voice.

“Everything except blood,” I admitted, hating that I couldn’t get that for her.

“It’s okay,” she said, giving me a proud smile and touching my face gently. “You did good.”

I smiled in return. Her eyes flickered to Enzo and a sob escaped her lips as she ran to him. He hugged

her immediately.

“I’m so glad you are okay,” she breathed.

“You too,” he said in return.

I hadn’t even noticed that the fighting above quieted until I felt a warm and inviting aura circling

around all of us. Diana’s eyes widened as she stared up at the dirt ceiling with a bright smile on her

face.

“A shield has been placed,” she breathed. “How is it possible?”

“My mother,” I said in return.

“She’s here?” Diana asked with raised brows.

“Yes,” I said, leaning against Enzo for support. I was so tired after all of this, and I needed to rest for a

minute. “We are safe for right now…”

I heard the relieved cries of those around us. Diana went to help those injured and I continued to lean

on Enzo for physical support. But then his entire body tensed, and I glanced up at him, seeing his eyes

glazed over.

He was speaking with someone in a mindlink.

“What is it?” I asked as he blinked a couple of times and looked at me.

“It was Ethan… he found Hazel’s location. She’s in Starcove.”
