My Hockey Alpha

Chapter 165 Retracted

Nina

“I guess silver bullets really do work,” James said. “That sure nipped it in the bud, huh?”

The room fell into a shocked silence as he spoke. I felt my heart sink and a pit form in my stomach. The logical part of me told me that James was lying and only trying to get under my skin, but there was another part of me that wondered if he really was telling the truth. When he shot me, did the silver in the bullet somehow kill off what was left of my wolf?

Suddenly, the room flew into a frenzy. Before anyone could stop him, Enzo went into a rage and stormed over to James, pulling his arm back and aiming a forceful punch right in the center of James’ face, causing his already-broken nose to start gushing blood again.

“Enzo!” I yelled. “Stop!” But Enzo didn’t listen. He went to punch James again, but this time, Bryce and Matt got in the way and yanked him away from James, who was now knocked out cold. Enzo struggled against them, shouting obscenities and snarling angrily. My heart practically beating out of my chest, I ran up to Enzo and put myself between him and James, my eyes pleading for him to stop as I grabbed a handful of his shirt.

When he saw me, he relaxed a little and wrenched himself free of Matt and Bryce, storming off to the other side of the room. He whirled around on his heel then and pointed at James with a shaking hand, his eyes red with fury. “What are we even doing protecting him like this?” he snarled. “I say we let the Crescents have him. He’s nothing but a filthy little weasel.”

I walked over to him and stopped in front of him, just wanting to calm the situation down. “Enzo, it’s not worth it,” I said gently, taking his hand. “If you keep fighting with him, you’ll only give him what he wants.”

“He’s just trying to get a rise out of you, man,” Matt said from the other side of the room. “Let it go. He’s pathetic.”
