My Hockey Alpha

Chapter 178 A Horrible Dream

Nina

I woke up that night with a start. My back and forehead were both caked in sweat, and my entire body was shaking as I sat up in bed.

That night, I had had a dream about Enzo; a horrible dream, at that. I was searching for him, running through the forest as fast as I could and calling his name. I could hear his voice coming from far away, calling for me. Just a little further, and I would be there. So much joy filled my body as I knew that he would be safe with me.

But when I found him, he wasn’t alone. He was sitting on a chair, and behind him stood… Selena. His eyes were closed and his body was slumped, but she was holding his head up like a puppet. There was a sickening grin spread across her evil face, and then she opened her mouth…

And she called my name with Enzo’s voice.

After that dream, I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep. It felt like an omen, and although it had been less than a day since Enzo left, I knew I needed to find him — and Myra was the only one who I knew that could help me. Without wasting a second, I quickly climbed out of bed and threw my clothes on, then quietly slipped out of my dorm and headed toward the cabins where the Fullmoons were staying.

When I arrived, several of them were sitting around the fire and chatting. Lewis wasn’t there, but thankfully, Myra was. She looked up as I approached and gave me a strange look.

“Nina?” she asked. “It’s one o’clock in the morning. What’s wrong?”
