My Hockey Alpha

Chapter 288

Why wasn’t I dying yet?

Selena had died at the Luna’s hands. The prophecy foretold that one twin must not live without the other… But I felt fine. Selena was dead, and I was still standing. I looked up at Enzo, who looked back down at me with an equal amount of surprise, confusion, and joy.

Suddenly, I heard a booming voice thundering across the battlefield.

“Where is my daughter?!” a loud, male voice called. I whipped around to see none other than the Alpha King staggering through the doorway of the mansion. He leaned his hand against the doorframe, and as his eyes scanned the scene before him, his face became wrought with worry. His eyes then flickered down to see his dead daughter, Selena, laying on the steps with a gaping hole in her chest.

The Alpha King let out a wild yell and rushed down the steps, falling to his knees beside his daughter. He didn’t even care to look in the Luna’s direction; he knew what she had done. Now that he had been freed from her spell, there was no doubt that he remembered everything. All of her manipulation, her evil deeds, her murders.

Slowly, the Alpha King then looked up at me and Enzo. His eyes flickered with recognition and he stood, walking over to me. As he did, I felt my heart catch in my throat. Would he blame me for this? Did he even remember me from the last time that I saw him, or did the Luna’s spell wipe it out of his memory?

For a long time, we just stared at each other. The air fell silent. Everything else fell away, leaving nothing but the two of us staring into each other’s eyes.

“Nina,” he whispered. “Is that you? You’re alive?”

I slowly nodded my head. All at once, the Alpha King threw his arms around me and pulled me in tightly. “All these years,” he said, “I thought that the Crescents had killed you… But you were alive. Yes, I remember now… I remember you coming into my throne room, not long ago…”

I said through my tears. “You didn’t recognize me. You
