My Hockey Alpha Chapter 172

The New Peacekeepers

Enzo

That night, I hardly slept. Even though the campus had been saved, there was still so much left to worry about — primarily my father. If the Alpha King withdrew his aid, then that only meant one thing: he thought that I ran away entirely, and he didn’t know about Nina. If he didn’t know about Nina, then that meant that Selena stopped my father from telling him in one way or another. I couldn’t be certain what, exactly, she did until I went back. And I would have to go back because, despite everything, I still loved my father. I couldn’t just leave him there if Selena did something horrible to him.

I just didn’t know how I would break that news to Nina. I knew that it would crush her for me to tell her that I would have to leave, and there was a possibility that I wouldn’t come back…

And no matter how much she cried or begged, I couldn’t let her come with me. It was too dangerous.

So, as she slept peacefully beside me that night, I laid wide awake until my body eventually gave up and drifted off to sleep — because I didn’t know how I could break Nina’s heart like that.

The next morning, Nina, our new pack that Nina had dubbed the ‘New Peacekeepers’, and I all made our way over to the conference room for the meeting.

When we entered, Lewis, a few of the other Fullmoons, and dean Cynthia were already sitting at the table.

“Well, if it isn’t the New Peacekeepers,” Lewis said, almost condescendingly. I knew that he would be pissed at me for deciding to leave my dad’s pack, but I didn’t care. To me, my friends were more my pack than the Fullmoons ever were. My dad might be upset at first, but I knew that he would understand deep down.
