My Hockey Alpha Chapter 99

Finding Nina

Enzo

Several days passed after my father found me in the hockey rink, and I didn’t see or hear from Nina. I didn’t particularly want to, either. In my mind, she was probably with Ronan. I knew I wasn’t supposed to feel negatively about it and that we were just supposed to be friends all this time, but how could I not? Even with the promise of the bride of the arranged marriage being my fated mate, I couldn’t stop thinking about Nina. I couldn’t sleep without imagining her small body curled up in my arms. I couldn’t close my eyes without remembering how beautiful she looked that day when I told my team about werewolves, and yet I was so angry and hurt by her refusal to admit her true feelings for me that I didn’t want to see her at the same time.

Maybe learning about the arranged marriage pushed her away from me, but it didn’t make the pain of her choosing Ronan over me hurt any less. And as the days ticked on, the memories of her going on that date to the fair with Ronan, of her entertaining Justin’s pleas for her to get back together with him, of the way that she saved Ronan’s life even when he had just been trying to kill me… It all made me realize that I never truly had a chance with her to begin with.

I was sitting on my couch one night, drowning my sorrows in a bad scary movie and a cheese pizza, when I was suddenly alerted by the loud and abrupt sounds of someone banging relentlessly on my door. Cursing under my breath, I paused my movie and stood, peering through the peephole to see none other than Luke standing on the other side. His face was pressed up against the peep hole, as though he was trying to see through the wrong end, then he pulled away and started knocking even harder.

Had Nina sent him to try to talk to me?

“Open the door, Enzo,” Luke said, banging on the door again. “I can see the shadow of your feet under the door, and I heard you watching that awful movie. I know you’re in there.”

Sighing, I unlocked the door and swung it open. Luke pushed past me and stormed in, whirling around to face me in my kitchen.

“You’re eating pizza at a time like this?” he said incredulously.

I furrowed my brow. “What are you talking about?”

“You don’t know?” he asked. “Nina just fucking disappeared.”
