My Hockey Alpha

Nina

After Enzo dropped me off, I went upstairs and went straight to bed.

That night, I had dreams about Enzo. In the dreams, he wasn’t just a human but a huge wolf with silver fur and red eyes. I sat on his back while he walked through the forest, my fingers tangled in his fur. Something about it felt comforting. —

When I woke up the next morning, I realized that I had missed my alarm!

I jumped out of bed, cursing, and threw on the first thing I could find in my dresser, combed my hair without even bothering to braid it, and brushed my teeth before running out of my dorm and flying down the stairs with my loose hair flowing behind me.

A few minutes later, I burst into class, completely out of breath..

The professor raised an eyebrow at me as several students turned around to see what the commotion was about.

“Sorry,” I muttered, squeezing my way through a row of desks to find at seat next to Jessica, who had saved me my usual spot. She glared up at me and moved her jacket out of the way so I could sit

“It’s not like you to be late,” she whispered while the professor continued giving his lecture. I took out my notebook and tucked my wild hair behind my ears.

“I was up late,” I whispered back.

Jessica frowned at me. “I saw his motorcycle driving away. I thought you were done with him and interested in someone else?”

“Ladies, please,” the professor said annoyedly, folding his arms across his chest and facing us. “Please save your conversation for after class… Especially you, Miss Harper. You’ve

already missed enough this morning.”

“Sorry, professor,” I replied, averting my attention to my notebook.

Jessica and I headed toward the dining hall for lunch after class.
