My Hockey Alpha Chapter 164

Night Shift

Nina

After we ate, it seemed that the Crescents weren’t too hot on our trail, so we decided to rest. Some of the team was already fast asleep on the couch or the floor, but the others eventually joined them. Enzo and I, however, volunteered to take the first shift keeping watch in case the Crescents showed up.

While everyone got comfortable and settled down to get some rest, Enzo and I set up a couple of kitchen stools by the window and kept watch.

The two of us sat in silence for a long time while we watched out the window for the Crescents. I noticed that he wouldn’t stop holding my hand, which filled me with a sense of security — but he also barely looked at me and wouldn’t tear his eyes away from the window for even one second, and his grip on my hand was firm.

Finally, after watching him like this for a while, I decided that there had to be something more to his anxiety than just the Crescents. The Enzo I knew would of course be alert for the Crescents and the rogues, but not like this. Something else was clearly going on, and I was determined to find out what it was.

“Enzo,” I said finally, breaking the silence but still keeping my voice low so as not to wake anyone else.

“Hm?” he asked, still staring intently out the window. He was hardly even blinking, and it made me even more worried to see his eyes slowly turning red from the strain.
