NovelEnglishChapter 0373 Enzo’s POV “Who was on the phone?” Lila asked with a small frown when I entered the room.
Her face was still a little red which made a smile tug at the corner of my lips. I suppose I had myself to blame for that. She looked gorgeous in her thin nightgown and her hair flowing messily around her face.
“It was Dr. Todrick from the pack clinic,” I answered. “He might have found something in that protein mix Xander had given you.” Her face paled.
“What did he find?” She asked, her voice soft and nervous. N
“Twon’t know until I go there,” I told her, trying to keep my voice calm to not alarm her. “I'm going to head there once I'm done getting dressed.
I'll meet you at the school later.” When I finished getting dressed, Lila was finishing cleaning from breakfast and grabbing clothes for herself. When she saw me, her frown deepened.

I furrowed my brows at her. I was wary about what the shake was made of, but poison was not a thing I thought about.
“Why would he try to poison you?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at her.
; Was there a reason she thought he ;
would be trying to poison her? She was quiet for a moment before answering.
“Well..when I drink it, my throat hurts and my lips burn...” she said, lowering her gaze. This was news to me, and my heart fell into my stomach. “He said it’s supposed to happen and that I'll get used to it. But Val doesn’t like it either and told me not to drink it anymore. I only drank it twice and each time it makes me feel weird.” “Why didn’t you tell me that before?” I asked, trying not to sound like I was scolding her. But I didn’t like the fact that kept this from me.
She shrugged.
“1 didn’t want to upset you,” she said, biting her bottom lip and chewing on it
nervously.
I sighed and sat beside her on the bed.
“If you feel like something isn’t right about anything, you need to tell me about it, Lila. I need you to trust me,” I said softly, running my fingers down her face. She leaned into my touch, closing her eyes.
“I’m sorry,” she breathed. “He’s a little tougher on me than most students.” “What?” I asked, Max grew furious almost instantly. “What do you mean?” She was hesitant.
“He...” she stopped and took in a deep breath as she met my eyes. “He broke my arm...”
1 stood to my feet quickly, “What the hell do you mean he broke your arm?!” “He claims it was accidental,” she explained. “He tackled me to the ground and kept telling me to push him off, but he was on my arm. When I moved it, he applied more pressure and then I heard it snap...” “Lila...” I said, trying to maintain my temper, but it was hard. I knew the eyes of my wolf were probably evident to her. I could feel Max pushing to the front of my mind.

“Why didn’t you tell me about this?!” 1 asked through my teeth; [was trying
very hard to keep my wolf under control “1 didn’t want you to be angry and do something stupid,” she admitted.
“Plus, | have a feeling he’s after something. Like he has some kind of vendetta against me. So, I agreed to private lessons so I could figure out what it is he wants.” “1 don’t want you anywhere near him,” I growled.
I started walking toward the door as fury consumed me. I heard her getting up from the bed and I felt her worry, but it wasn’t enough to calm me.
“please don’t do anything stupid,” she pleaded.
But I hardly heard her. I ripped the door open and slammed it behind me.
I got to the clinic soon after and Dr.
Todrick was in his office. He was staring at his computer with a deep frown.
I was going to the school to beat the living shit out of Xander, but I knew without actual proof of foul play, it wouldn’t end well for me. So, I decided to go to the clinic first and find out what Dr. Todrick found in that shake.
«What did you find?” I asked as soon as I barged into his office.
