My Hockey Alpha

Chapter 0405

"Was he always like this when he coached you guys on the hockey team?" I asked, turning to look up at Matt.

Matt chuckled wryly and nodded. "Yeah, actually," he said. "Maybe not quite this bad. But when we first started out, none of us were very good, and we had some people on our team who weren't very serious about it. For the first few months, Enzo drilled us like hell. I remember going home and being so sore I could hardly move. It was worth it, though."Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

I nodded slowly and looked back over at Enzo. Maybe to him, the new recruits were like the new hockey team to him, and he needed to whip them into shape. I supposed that I should trust him, seeing as how his training methods had resulted in one of the best hockey teams in this part of the country, but it was still hard to watch.

However, as the training session went on, I couldn't help but get even more worried about the new recruits. They were noticeably fatigued by then, and it just didn't feel right to stand by idly and watch. When Enzo started to berate one of the male recruits for tripping and falling, I finally had had enough.

"Everyone, take fifteen and have a break," I said, walking up to Enzo, Enzo whipped around to give me a surprised look, but said nothing. I could tell just from the look on his face that he knew what I was about to say.

While the recruits sat down and drank their water thirstily, panting and moaning, I stopped in front of Enzo with my hands on my hips. "You're going too hard again."

Enzo chuckled slightly. "If you think this is bad, then you should have been there for the mandatory training sessions that all werewolves have to go through during adolescence," he replied, folding his arms across his chest. "This is nothing compared to that."

"So?" I asked, splaying my hands out to my sides. "Just because you had to train harder than this doesn't mean that it's fair to punish everyone. They voluntarily signed up to be here and you're punishing them for it." Content belong to NôvelDráma. Org.

"You're not even taking part in the training," Enzo scoffed. "So I don't really wanna hear it."

My eyes widened at Enzo's words. "What is your problem?" I growled.

Enzo fell silent for several seconds. His eyes seemed to flash with a million different emotions as he ground his teeth together before he finally answered.

"My problem is that, once again, we're dealing with the consequences of one of your poorly thought-out plans." "W-What is that supposed to mean?" I whispered, feeling hot tears beginning to prick at the backs of my eyes. Enzo shrugged. "First, you ran off the other day with some grand plan to take on the rogue leader on your own. Then, you practically bullied me into going through with this plan to turn dozens of people into werewolves, and you're not even a little concerned that some of them could use their new powers for evil!"

My eyes widened even further. I felt tears pooling up in them as I stared angrily up at Enzo, obstructing my view of him. I opened my mouth to respond, but before I could, one of the new recruits suddenly spoke up.

"We're not planning on using any of our new powers for evil," she said, her voice shaking slightly. "None of us would ever want to do anything bad to our campus. We're just trying to protect the town that we love. Right, guys?"

The other recruits murmured in agreement. I quickly looked down and wiped my tears away with the back of my hand.

But when I looked back up, Enzo was gone.
