My Hockey Alpha Chapter 101

Tortured Love

Nina

While I slept, I had a strange dream.

I dreamed that I was walking through the forest just outside of campus. I recognized where I was, and I knew the path well as I walked. Up ahead, I could make out the clearing where I had last kissed Justin on the night that I discovered that he was a rogue.

It was nighttime, and the moon was full. The air was perfectly still and warm.

As I stepped into the clearing, however, I knew that I wasn’t alone. Across the clearing, moving in unison with me, was a large wolf with red fur and a cream-colored streak across its face.

I stopped in the middle of the clearing. The wolf stopped in front of me. I reached out to touch it…

But then, I woke up.

I wasn’t in the forest; I was back in my room. When I tried to move, I realized that the restraints were around my wrists and ankles again.

“Good morning,” a familiar voice said from beside me. I looked over to see Edward sitting on his stool next to me with a smile on his face. “Which Nina am I talking to today?”

“Good Nina,” I replied, remembering what had happened earlier in the closet. Evil Nina had taken over for a bit, but Edward saved me, and now I was in control again.

Edward’s smile widened. “That’s good to hear.” He paused, reaching over to the table next to him and picking up a cup. “I’m going to start giving you some new medicine,” he said. “It’ll taste a little funny, but it’ll help make sure that Evil Nina doesn’t come back again. We wouldn’t want that to happen, would we?”

I shook my head. Edward, still smiling from ear to ear, leaned forward. He lifted my head with one hand, then held the cup to my lips with the other. I drank. It did taste funny — a little bitter — but I drank all of it, because I didn’t want to lose control to Evil Nina again. I wanted to get better so that I could go home to my family, just like Justin.
