My Hockey Alpha Chapter 221: Learning Curve

Nina

I felt utterly hopeless. What was I supposed to do? Selena put some sort of hex on Luke to keep him from opening a portal, which was not only shocking as I wasn’t even sure how she knew that he was coming, but the rest of us also couldn’t open a portal.

“We’ll try again tomorrow, Nina,” Luke said gently. He reached out to squeeze my shoulder, but I flinched away. I was too angry for comfort, not at him, but at Selena.

“We have to get to Enzo tonight,” I insisted, my voice shaking as my eyes began to well up with tears. “Please. I can’t explain it, but I think that tomorrow might be too late.”

Luke paused. Between the five of us, the air was silent.

“Nina, I… I really can’t open a portal,” Luke said quietly. “I’m sorry, but I just can’t. She put a hex on me. She may have put a hex on the whole area so no one could even open a portal.”

“Nina, Enzo will be okay until the morning,” Jessica said, stepping forward and placing her hand on my arm. When I looked over at her, she had a pained and apologetic expression on her face. Even in the darkness, I could see that there were tears in her own eyes. “He’s strong. He’ll be okay.”

I shook my head and let out a wry chuckle as the tears began to stream down my cheeks.

“That’s what you keep saying,” I growled, “but it’s not true. Selena already has her claws sunken in far enough. I saw how easily she made Enzo forget everything just now. He… He was practically an entirely different person. If we don’t get to him soon, she’ll only strengthen her grip on him.”
