My Hockey Alpha
#Chapter 166: Reunion

Nina

We watched for an hour through that window with bated breath, almost unblinking as we waited to see what would happen when the Crescents and the rogues finally came out. No one said a word that entire time, too alert and frightened that the rogues and the Crescents would come out of that building and come to ours next. At one point, I felt Enzo’s arm slide protectively around my shoulders, and I didn't resist. I leaned into him, letting him support me after the hell we'd been through.

Finally, after what felt like an eternity, the first Crescent came strutting out of Enzo’s dorm building. We watched as she stood on the quad, looking all around while the other Crescents and the rogues slowly filed out. Then, one of the other Crescents came up to her; they spoke for a few moments before seemingly coming to an agreement and, thankfully, led the group in another direction entirely.

We were safe — for now.

“Oh, thank god,” Jessica whimpered as she clung to Lori for dear life. “Can we sleep now?”

Matt nodded. “I think so,” he said. “They're not gonna come back here again tonight, not with dawn coming soon.”

“I can keep watch,” Enzo said, but Matt stopped him and shook his head.

“Get some rest,” Matt insisted, then looked over at me. “You, too, Nina. Both of you.”

I glanced up at Enzo. His jaw was clenched hard, but his arm remained around my shoulders. Finally, he nodded and let me lead him to my room

“Um... Do you need to shower?” I asked, to which Enzo surprisingly shook his head. He kept his eyes glued on the window, as though he expected a Crescent to come flying through it at any moment. “Well... I need a shower,” I said finally, looking down at my filthy, bloody clothes. “I'll be right back.” I made my way over to the bathroom, where I began to shut the door — but Enzo quickly stopped me. “Leave the door open,” he said. “Just in case.”

I paused with my hand on the doorknob. He seemed worried, as though he didn’t want to let me out of his sight, so I left the door open at his request. Without me asking, he turned his back so that I could undress; not that I would have asked him to. I quietly undressed, then stepped into the shower and let the hot water run over my skin.

As I washed myself, I couldn't stop looking down at my leg. The hole where the bullet had entered was still just a red mound of scarred flesh, and the pain was gone, but I kept wondering if what James had said was true. If that bullet really did kill off my wolf, somehow... I didn’t know what I would do after that. Would Selena finally get her way if I was out of the picture as Enzo's fated mate?

When I was finished, I shut off the water and stepped out into the steamy bathroom. I wrapped my towel around myself and wiped my hand across the mirror, taking in my reflection for a few moments. Even just the events of the past few days seemed to have changed my appearance a bit. My eyes looked tired and worn, and my cheeks were gaunt. I hated the way I look.

But then, something came up behind me. Enzo's face appeared in the reflection as he walked up behind me, gazing down at me. I didn't stop him as his hands wrapped around my waist with only the towel between us, and for a long time we just stood in silence and watched each other.

“I want to make love with you,” I said after a long time.

Enzo didn’t answer. He only nodded and spun me around to face him, his eyes wandering over my body. I released my grip on my towel and let it fall to the floor, allowing him to see everything. Without a word, he picked me up and carried me over to the bed. He laid me down on the sheets, then stood in front of me as he undressed, revealing his distinct muscles. When he was finished, he laid down next to me and pulled the covers up over us, his hands trailing up and down my waist as we laid next to each other.

Neither of us spoke or did anything for a long time. We just laid there, looking into each other's eyes as his hands continued to explore my body. There was a newfound sadness in his eyes, but there was also a deep, profound love there. I brought my hand up to touch his cheek and he nuzzled gently into my palm. He wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me closer then, his lips brushing across my jaw, down my neck and to my collar bone, causing my skin to raise in goosebumps all over.

Finally, I let my own hand travel down his body. The last time we had slept together, he had cut things off with me in the morning... But I knew now that he wouldn't leave me again. As my hand made its way down his chest, over his abs and down to his groin, I felt him with my hand and noticed that his cock was already hard. It throbbed beneath my touch.

An involuntary, low growl escaped his lips as I touched him. It made me grin, and I pushed myself up onto my elbow and began to stroke him faster so I could hear more of his groans.

“Give me your mouth...” Enzo groaned, his eyes flickering open to fix his gaze on mine. There was almost a sense of sternness behind his gaze, as though he was demanding that I go down on him, and it made me instantly wet to have him take charge over me like that.

My smile widened. “Yes, sir,” I whispered, my words causing him to groan again. As I crawled down between his legs, he suddenly grabbed my hair and pushed me down onto his cock, making me take all of him in my mouth at once. It made me gag, but the gag only made him moan even more, and it made me want to keep going. I began to move my head up and down, stroking his balls and his thighs as I moved and pushing myself deeper each time until there was no cock left. When I came back up for air finally, my eyes were red and tears were streaked down my face, but there was a smile spread across my swollen lips.

"How's that?” I asked, my voice strained.

Enzo only grinned. He then flipped me over to my back and climbed on top of me. I wrapped my arms around his neck as he pushed into me, a quiet gasp bursting out of my mouth the moment I felt the filling sensation of him being inside of me.

There was something different about this time. Somehow, our shared pain brought our hearts closer than ever, and our eyes never pulled apart from one another as Enzo slowly began to move inside of me. Our breaths mixed in the darkness of my bedroom, neither of us making a sound other than our quiet, muffled moans. I wanted to be like this forever, just here in this room with Enzo; even with the Crescents and the rogues roaming our campus, I was perfectly content like this.

While he made love to me, Enzo reached down and held my thighs back, pushing them further and further back, his fingers digging into the soft flesh and making my skin tingle. As he did this, the position became tighter and the filling sensation became almost unbearable. I felt as though I was being stretched, allowing him to go deeper and deeper inside of me with each thrust.

His other hand moved down to rub my clit, and I suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to come. "Don't do it,” he said, his eyes narrowed as he continued to thrust and rub me at the same time. “Not until I say so.”

“But—"

Enzo suddenly thrust even deeper, harder. “Not until I say so.”

I bit my lip, staring up at him as he worked himself inside of me and glared down at me, watching me to make sure I didn't come. I felt as though I would fail at any moment, but somehow his stern and powerful gaze made me want to be good for him, so I held it in.

“Good girl,” he whispered, a smile twitching at the corners of his lips. “Go ahead.”

Finally, he let me finish. My back arched with the explosive sensation inside of me and I could feel my eyes rolling back in ecstasy, and as I throbbed around him, I felt him throbbing, too. He finished inside of me, finally collapsing on top of me as he panted and sighed contentedly.

As we fell asleep in each other's arms that night, I felt safer than ever. The Crescents could have burst into my room right then and there, but I wasn't worried with Enzo by my side. Somehow, I knew that he would always protect me and keep me safe, and that was all that mattered.

Maybe, even if my wolf never did return, we could still be together until the end.
