My Hockey Alpha novel Chapter 95

Enzo

I hadn’t been planning on going to the party, but Matt dragged me along; I figured it could also be a good chance to try to observe Justin or to interrogate Lisa, so I agreed to go. It wasn’t long after I got there, however, that rumors started making their way over to me… Rumors of Nina being with someone else, less than twenty-four hours after she had found her ex’s body in a basement, and hardly a couple of weeks since our last kiss. Not to mention the time we spent in the lodge, holding each other in the middle of the night because she was scared of the dark.

Sure, we were supposed to just be friends, but it still hurt.

“Trouble in paradise?” Lisa said, sauntering up to me at the bonfire.

I took a swig of my beer, deciding not to answer. Lisa was wearing a skimpy pair of denim shorts, even though it was cold out, and had a flannel on top that was buttoned down just enough to show a bit of the lace trim on her bra. Not only that, but in typical Lisa fashion, she looked like she had a fresh spray tan and a pound of makeup on.

“What’s wrong?” she asked, twirling a bit of hair around her finger. “I know we’ve been broken up for a long time now, but you know you can always talk to me, right?”

I shrugged. “I’m fine. Nina and I are just friends. She’s allowed to be with whoever she wants.”

A grin spread across Lisa’s face. “I didn’t mention Nina,” she said with a sparkle in her eye. “But if you want to talk about her…” she gestured over to one of the cabins. Nina was disappearing into it with Ronan, and it made my blood boil.

Before I could stop her, Lisa took my hand and pulled me after her, leading me behind one of the cabins. My head was reeling from the pain of seeing Nina with Ronan. How could she sleep with him, knowing that he was a Crescent who was out to kidnap her for some mystery woman?

As soon as the were alone in the dark behind the cabin, Lisa pounced on me, knocking the half-empty beer bottle out of my hand. I gritted my teeth as she started to kiss all over my neck, running her fingers through my hair and ripping at my shirt.

She stood up on her tiptoes and tried to kiss me on my lips. I quickly jerked my head away.

“Ugh, still got some hangups, huh?” she snarled, stepping away and folding her arms across her chest for a moment before an evil smirk came across her face. “I’ll fix that,” she said, then started to reach for my groin.

I grabbed her wrist just before she touched me, taking her by surprise and pinning her up against the wall.

“Ooh!” she exclaimed, licking her lips. “You want it rough this time?”

She tried to kiss me again, but this time I grabbed her by the neck and pinned her against the wall even harder, channeling my anger into my interrogation skills.

“Tell me who you’re working for,” I growled.

Lisa recoiled, narrowing her eyes. “What the fuck?” she said. She started to struggle, but even with her newfound werewolf abilities, she wasn’t nearly as strong as me with her small size.

“You heard me,” I said, pinning her harder as my grip tightened on her throat. “Tell me who you’re working for, and tell me what the fuck happened to Justin. I know that you know.”

“I don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about,” she responded, her voice becoming strained beneath the pressure of my hand.

“Don’t bullshit me, Lisa,” I said. “I know that you’ve been up to something. The Mad Wolf serum alone isn’t enough to make someone anything more than a rogue. Someone had to have bitten you, and you’re hiding it. So who was it?”
