My Hockey Alpha

Chapter 104 The Sacrifice of Love

Nina

For hours after I threw up my medicine, all I could hear were the sounds of Edward beating Enzo in the room next door. I wished that I could just go in there and stop him, but I knew it would be a futile effort; I had to be smart about this if I really was going to get Enzo and I out of this place.

While Edward was next door, I planned out my escape. I had noticed him once, when I first came here, put a slip of paper in his pocket after using the keypad on my door. I had forgotten about it because of the medicine, but I could see it clearly in my mind now that I was sober again. Edward must have changed the codes on the doors whenever he brought in a new “patient”, so he kept the codes in his pocket in case he forgot. If I could get the codes out of his pocket, I could sneak out again when he was gone and get into Enzo’s room.

First, I cleaned up the vomit with a pillowcase and shoved it under my bed. Next, I would lay down on the bed when I heard him coming, and I would pretend to be tied up again. When he tried to pour the medicine down my throat, I would distract him by spitting it out into his face; it might result in a beating, but I could grab the codes out of his pocket before he noticed.

Eventually, I heard the beatings stop. I quickly ran and got into place on the bed, taking extra care to place my hands and feet in such a way that he couldn’t tell that the restraints were broken.

“Good morning, Nina,” Edward said as he entered. I pretended to be groggy and lifted my head to look at him. “Are you ready for some more medicine?”

I nodded.

Edward smiled and approached me with the cup of medicine in his hands. He still had a bit of blood splattered on his shirt from torturing Enzo. It made me sick; I wished I could just attack him right now, but I couldn’t feel Cora’s presence, so I had no strength to borrow from her.
