Chapter 323
My Hockey Alpha
Chapter 0323 Enzo - When I finally remembered everything, it felt as though I had broken out of a prison. All I wanted in those sweet moments was to feel Nina pressed up against me, to feel her warmth and her love. I couldnât believe that I had spent the past weeks being locked in a fog by Selenaâs doing.
Somehow, with Selenaâs incredible power, I was genuinely convinced that I had never attended Mountainview, nor had I ever met Nina before; but the power of my love for Nina prevailed in the end.
At least, that was what I thought. But when Selena suddenly found me in the locker room and sunk her claws into I
my brain once more, I suddenly felt foggy again.
I'should have seen it coming, but I guessed that the very first thing on my mind was to hide Nina and keep her protected â protecting myself from Selenaâs tricks was at the bottom of my list, and I also got a little too cocky.
When I broke through her spell, it was almost as though I forgot just how powerful her abilities were. She was the Alpha Kingâs daughter, after all, and neither Nina nor I were any match for her abilities. So when she dazed me again, neither of us had any way of stopping her.
But she didnât daze me fully; she only dazed me just enough to make me foggy and susceptible to her demands.
I felt like I was walking through a thick mist as she grabbed my arm and
yanked me out of the locker room. I swore that there was some reason why I was supposed to stay away from her...
But now, I couldnât remember why. All I knew was that I should have stayed away from her, and that she wasnât to be trusted. But even then, I followed her, and I couldnât explain why I didnât fight back.
As Selena dragged me out the back of the hockey arena and across the misty athletic field, she babbled on angrily in front of me.
âI'shouldâve known... Itâs too risky...
That bitch...â she muttered. It made no sense. Who was she talking about? What did she mean when she said it was âtoo riskyâ? I felt as though there was something I was supposed to know, but it felt like there was a thick bubble wrapped around that area of my
brain, and I couldnât pop it no matter how hard I poked and prodded at it. I felt dumb and lifeless, like I had just come out of a coma moments earlier â or maybe it rather felt like I was about to go into a coma, like I was slipping out of consciousness and everything would go dark at any moment.
Selena led us into the woods, which were darker and colder in the chill of the winter air.
âSelena?â I asked as she led us further in, a shiver going down my spine.
âWhat's wrong? Where are we going? Are you okay?â But Selena didnât answer. She just picked up her pace and tightened her grip on my wrist as she yanked me forward into the dark woods.
Finally, we were so deep into the
woods that I couldnât even see the campus behind us anymore. Selena led us on a winding path that seemed to have no end before she finally stopped in a small clearing, where she released her grip on my arm and glared at me with an intensity that I didnât fully understand.
Why was she so angry with me? And why, every time I blinked, did I see another version of her â a version of her that was slightly different, with brown eyes and freckled skin, and a kind heart instead of an icy one? Who was this other version of Selena, and why did I feel the need to run off and find it? I I
