#chapter 135: Running with the

Nina

When I came to, the first thing I saw was Enzo’s concerned face. “Are you okay?” he asked, his eyes wrought with worry.

I groaned and looked around, noticing now that the rest of the hockey team was also bent over me and looking equally as worried. It took a few moments for my head to clear, but then I remembered that I had passed out during the Claiming ceremony.

“I’m fine…” I sat up, rubbing my throbbing head. “Did it work?”

Enzo paused, then looked around at his teammates, who all shrugged. “I feel a little different,” one of them said. “Me, too,” another chimed in, looking at his hands with an expression of awe on his face.

Enzo helped me up. I looked around at everyone, then searched for Cora’s presence inside of me to ask her if she managed to do it — but she was asleep. It seemed that the ceremony drained her energy, too.

Suddenly, one of the teammates, Bryce, doubled over The rest of the team huddled around him in shock.

“Bryce, are you okay?” Enzo asked, furrowing his brow and going over to Bryce. I watched as Enzo put his hand on his teammate’s back with concern drawn across his face, and for a moment, I forgot that I was supposed to be angry with him for breaking my heart just a few days ago.

Bryce didn’t answer right away He groaned, holding his stomach, and muttered something indiscernible under his breath

“What did you say, buddy?” Matt asked

Bryce groaned again. “I said I think Something’s ”

Suddenly, and without warning, Bryce began to shift. The rest of the team scattered, yelling amongst themselves, but all of a sudden they, too, began to shift Enzo, Matt, and I stood nearby in awe Enzo stood in front of me protectively, which made my heart skip, but I wasn’t scared.

Once the team finished shifting they all stood around looking at each other as though they were processing what just happened. Then, they all turned to look inquisitively at Enzo and Matt

There was a long, palpable silence.

Then

“Fuck yeah, baby!” Matt yelled, pumping his fist in the air. Enzo whipped around to face me and grinned. I felt my face go red as he grabbed me by both shoulders and shook me

“Nina!” he said, his face lit up like

never before. “You did it! You’re

amazing!”

My eyes were wide “I- I don’t–P

Before I could stammer out a response, Enzo turned back to face his team and said excitedly. “Come on! Let’s go for a run!” The team whooped and howled with excitement in response I staggered backwards out of the way as Enzo and Matt shifted, then watched in awe as they all took off into the woods as one unit. A pack

But then, Enzo stopped in his tracks He paused, thinking, then turned and ran back to me. My eyes widened even further as he trotted up to me and crouched down in front of me, his

silver fur glistening in the moonlight

“Get on,” his voice echoed in my head.

“Oh, that’s okay,” I protested, holding

up my hands and shaking my head.”

You guys can go without me.”

But Enzo didn’t budge

I felt a knot rise in my throat, but at the same time, a newfound excitement rose there, too. I felt a smile twitching at the corners of my lips as I approached Enzo, my heart racing. I reached out and took a deep breath, intertwining my fingers with his soft silver fur

Then, I climbed onto his back

He stood to his full height, and it was now that I realized just how big he was in his wolf form as I towered above the ground. He waited a few moments, allowing me to get my bearings. I held tightly onto his fur and leaned forward, the smile on my face widening

“Okay,” I said, my voice shaking with a mixture of fear and excitement. “I’m ready”

Enzo shot forward like a bullet. I leaned down further into his neck at first as he ran through the moonlit forest to catch up with his teammates, shielding my face from the wind and holding on for dear life. The longer we ran, however, I felt myself begin to relax. I slowly cracked my eyes open to see the forest

rushing past us as Enzo carried me through the trees, deftly weaving in and out. He ran smoothly, almost as though he was gliding, and soon I was able to sit up with a bit of confidence

The smile on my face grew even more I looked around at Enzo’s teammates as they all ran beside him; it reminded me so much of the day that we ran together during practice, only now, we moved as one single unit, and although I had no wolf form, I felt just as much a part of the pack as the rest

Suddenly, I saw a ravine up ahead. I felt my heart leap into my throat and I gripped Enzo’s fur again for dear life He wasn’t stopping, or even slowing down…

“Enzo,” I said, my voice shaking, but

he didn’t hear me

Did he see the ravine? If we didn’t stop.

we would surely fall–

But we didn’t

Enzo leaped over the ravine For what felt like an eternity, we flew through the air. I felt the wind rustling through my hair, and as we flew, I couldn’t contain the wild yell that bubbled up in my throat. Just a few moments ago I was terrified, but now I was taking my hands off of Enzo’s neck and holding my arms outstretched freely at my sides, my eyes closed and a smile spread across my face

I had never felt so free

Eventually, the wild run came to an end. We returned to the cabins, where Enzo let me slide down gently onto the ground before he and the rest of his teammates shifted back into their human forms. The entire team was exhilarated and panting from their run, chattering amongst themselves about the way their bodies felt.

“I really can’t thank you enough,” Enzo said, turning to face me

Much to my surprise, his face had reverted back to a look of somber contemplation. He averted his gaze, as did I as I felt my cheeks start to blush. While our wild run had temporarily made me feel free of the pain of our breakup, that feeling quickly returned now.

No problem, “Imuttered, sticking my hands in my pockets, “I should get home now, though.”

“I’ll walk you home”

My eyes widened at Enzo’s statement. I felt so confused by his behavior, just a few days ago, he had told me that we couldn’t see each other at all Now, he was offering to walk me home

“Um. That’s okay,” I replied, glancing over Enzo’s shoulder at his team as they talked and danced around the fire excitedly. “You should stay with your team’

Enzo opened his mouth to say something, but then closed it again and nodded soberly. I managed a weak smile before turning around and making my way back to the trail that would lead me back to campus.

As I walked that night, my heart was full of two things a renewed sense of vigor from our wild dash through the woods, and a deep and incurable pain caused by my love for Enzo.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 2053

Josephine thought about it and believed it had to be something Ethan had arranged. She nodded. "Sure!" Subsequently, the clerks helped her with her makeup and into a beautiful blue evening gown. Once done, she resembled a stunning mermaid, noble yet mysterious. She looked at her reflection in the mirror, satisfied with her princess-like makeup and hairstyle. "Miss Jacobson, we wish you a delightful evening. The four clerks left. Soon, Josephine received a call from Ethan. "Hey, where are you?" She had begun to miss him. "Open the door, enter the hallway, and come straight to the deck. I'll be waiting there." She replied, "Sure. I'm coming." As she was wearing an evening dress, she could not help feeling like she was a fairy tale princess. Everything that happened to her was like a dream. The deck would usually be crowded, but why is it so empty today? Just as she stepped foot into the hallway, she was flabbergasted because the deck had been decorated for a huge proposal. A live band was playing romantic songs on the side while Ethan donned a blue suit, standing there and watching her with a smile as she approached. Josephine, come here," he instructed. When she approached him, she finally understood his disappearance. He had been here, decorating this place for their proposal. While looking at the large heart made of roses, the white veil moving in the wind, and the romantic dinner table on the side, she covered her chest, feeling so touched that she was about to cry. Once she arrived beside Ethan, she was pulled into a gentle hug. After releasing her, he got on one knee before her and held her hand, asking, "Josephine Jacobson, will you marry me?" "I do!" Josephine replied with determination. Ethan held her hand while slowly rising to his feet. Then he grabbed her waist with one hand and cupped the back of her head with the other, gently kissing her before the crowd. Josephine, thank you." She did not expect he would propose to her before he regained his memory. "Why didn't you wait until you recovered all of your memories?" "I was afraid you'd feel displeased with me and escape, so I have to make you mine first," he announced. That cracked Josephine up. 'Don't worry. I'm not going anywhere. Whether it's this lifetime or the next, I'm yours. You can't escape from me." Ethan leaned his forehead against hers. "How would I bear to leave you alone if you're willing to stay beside me?" Music began to play, and he hugged her waist. "Dance with me!" Then the couple waltzed to the slow music. Rather than saying they were dancing, it would be more appropriate to say they were pacing slowly while embracing each other. Under the dazzling sunset and a gentle sea breeze, a romantic atmosphere filled the space while several cameras were placed on the side, recording everything. She raised her head and asked, 'I heard there's a masquerade ball tonight." "Would you like to join?" "Will it be fun?" "Of course!" "Sure. I'll join the ball," she said. On the other hand, another young lady was currently inside a presidential suite on board- Willow Presgrave. Her assistant ran over and told her, "Miss Presgrave, guess whom I saw on the deck!" Willow was in a daze while propping her chin on her hand. She asked, "Who?" "I saw Mr. Quarles proposing to a beautiful woman!" "You mean Ethan?" Willow exclaimed in surprise, not expecting to bump into him here. "Yes, it's him. The proposal was so romantic, but guests weren't allowed to disturb them, so we could only watch from far away. Why don't you go and congratulate them?'
