My Hockey Alpha

Chapter 298: Proposal

Nina

The music was loud around us, and the firelight cast shadows of my dancing friends on the walls of the cabins. We were all thoroughly drunk, and for the first time in a long time, I was glad to be. Smiling, I stood up on my tiptoes and kissed Enzo, and when our lips parted he cupped my cheek with his warm hand and gazed into my eyes.

“Hey,” he said, taking one of my braids between his fingers and looking intently at it in an almost bashful way, “wanna go for a run?”

“Now?” I chuckled. “In our wolf forms?”

Enzo nodded. He seemed serious, and although I was probably too drunk to run in a straight line and hated leaving my friends behind, the thought of feeling the wind through my fur, even briefly, did sound nice. I nodded silently and let Enzo lead me away, behind the cabins, where we shifted out of sight of our classmates who had forgotten that werewolves existed.

Once we shifted, Enzo shot off into the night like a bolt of lightning. I had a hard time keeping up with him in my drunken state, but I couldn’t help but laugh to myself as we went on a mad dash through the woods like two feral creatures. The half-moon above us cast just enough of a glow through the trees to see where I was going, and with my night vision, it was no trouble at all. Finally, I caught up to Enzo and we ran together for a while, looping back and forth and around the trees until we were out of breath.

When we finally stopped, we found ourselves in a small clearing at the top of a shallow hill. As I shifted back, I realized that I recognized this place; it was the same place that I once went to with Luke one night, many nights ago. We had sat on this very hill and talked, and it was when I realized that Luke was a friend to me.
