My Hockey Alpha

Nina

A few more days passed, but I couldn’t get Enzo out of my head no matter how hard I tried. I knew that something was wrong; I could sense it. Luke never returned, either, and no matter how many times I wandered the campus and the town in search of him, I couldn’t find him. I didn’t know what happened to him exactly, but I somehow suspected that Selena had something to do with it. Was she watching me? Did she know that I planned to get to the werewolf realm, and made sure that my chances of accomplishing that were destroyed?

Finally, I decided that I had had enough. I needed to talk to the Fullmoons; Richard was still their Alpha, and Enzo was their Alpha’s son. They needed to find both of them before it was too late. Even though Enzo insisted that Selena didn’t have the capacity to kill anyone, I wasn’t so sure.

When I arrived at the Fullmoon camp out at the cabins one afternoon, I was shocked to find that all of them were sitting around the fire. No one seemed to be patrolling, which was what they were supposed to do. Did they really think that we were so safe here? Did they honestly think that the Crescents couldn’t return at any time once they got wind of the fact that the Fullmoons’ Alpha was missing?

As I approached, Lewis looked up and his face went dark.

“Hello, Nina,” he said, taking his last bite off of the chicken leg that he was eating and tossing the bone into the fire. “Can I help you?”

I stopped in front of the fire and folded my arms across my chest, willing myself to have the confidence to stand up for myself. “Enzo and Richard still haven’t returned,” I said, staring down my nose at him. “Aren’t you concerned? We need to go after them.”

Lewis only chuckled. A few of the other Fullmoons chuckled along with him, which astonished me. “They’ll be fine,” he said, sounding amused. “They’re with the Alpha King. In fact, they’re probably drawing up plans as we speak. You don’t need to worry.”

over then to Myra, who only stared at me with wide eyes from the other side of the fire. It felt as though she was the only one who didn’t approve of Lewis’ sudden takeover of the pack. “Maybe we will,” I said, tearing my gaze away from her to stare up at Lewis with confidence. “And when Richard
