Hate to love you: The star's forbidden obsession
Dark RomanceDramaFirst-Person POVArrogantHeir/HeirnessStarHate to LoveMxMSports
There are only three things Zayden Mercer cares about:
Winning.
Protecting his younger brother.
And never letting anyone discover what he really is.
As captain of the Arctic Wolves, Zayden has built himself into UCLA’s perfect hockey prince. Disciplined. Untouchable. Admired.
A lie held together by pressure, fear, and self-control.
Then there’s Ronan Devereaux.
The Northstars captain is everything Zayden despises—arrogant, beautiful, filthy rich, and born an S-class alpha without even trying. Wherever Ronan goes, attention follows. Omegas fall at his feet. Coaches worship him.
And worst of all?
Ronan enjoys breaking Zayden apart.
When Ronan discovers Zayden’s twisted secret obsession, their rivalry turns into something darker. More intimate. More dangerous.
Because Ronan doesn’t expose him, he keeps him.
What starts as blackmail spirals into a brutal game of control, humiliation, obsession, and desire neither of them can escape.
And somewhere between the fights, the blood, and the lies, Zayden realizes the person ruining his life may also be the only one who truly sees him.

Chapter: Won't let him offRONANShit. They really came.This idiot had wasted so much time that the task force arrived before anything could be settled.My gaze shifted toward the entrance.Liora stood behind the officers, her eyes glittering with vicious anticipation, the corners of her lips barely restrained from curling upward.So this was her true face.It must have been exhausting pretending to be the weak, harmless little omega around Zayden all these years.“You dare come into UCLA and beat up our students? How dare you?”I ran my tongue over my lips before letting out a slow breath.Settling this wasn't going to be anywhere near as simple as before.My fingers moved across my phone almost instinctively. I typed out a quick message and pressed send.Before I could think of a way to calm the situation, Zayden's brat stepped forward with both hands buried lazily inside his pockets.His posture remained relaxed, almost provokingly so.He looked directly at the task force leader.“Your students here are inc

Chapter: You messed upKAELI lunged at him without the slightest hesitation, my eyes burning with barely restrained fury.Sure, he was an A-Class Alpha.An athlete whose body had been tempered by years of extreme sports, hockey drills, and relentless gymnastics.But I wasn't that easy to put down either.He deflected my first punch with his palm.The second buried itself deep into his upper abdomen, driving the air straight out of his lungs.His breath hitched violently as his body folded ever so slightly, boots scraping across the floor while he staggered back several steps.Damon's expression darkened.A thicker wave of Alpha pheromones burst from him, the pressure in the room increasing as his eyes flashed with dangerous intent.He threw another punch.I slipped to the side just in time. The fist cut through empty air.Before he could recover, I rammed my shoulder into his abdomen with every ounce of momentum behind it.The impact sent him crashing onto the floor.His fist finally clipped my face on the

Chapter: Messed up againRONANMy earbuds were plugged into my ears as I sat inside the car, attending a video conference with my private investigator.A secret one.Since Hank's team couldn't handle it, looking elsewhere might prove more useful.I've always been suspicious by nature.Trusting my instincts had been the very thing that carried me through the worst situations life had thrown at me.And this time, my instincts kept telling me that not finding any bugs was far stranger than actually finding them.Hank had been with me for as long as I could remember.Doing this behind his back might seem unfair.But this was exactly who I was.I trusted no one completely."Mister Devereaux, after checking the dashcam footage from the bus parked overnight inside the Sports Complex, someone really did enter the hockey arena thirty minutes before you arrived with your team."I slowly let out the breath I'd been holding.How did that person know I intended to sweep the hockey building for possible espionage devices?

Chapter: Don't mess with me, kidKAELI've never seen Damon before.Physically, at least. Not up close.So I pulled out my phone and took a longer look at the picture Jay had sent me.Damon Felton. Number Nine. Left defenseman of the Northstars.Huh. Very well then.He wasn't in the Business Faculty.He belonged to the Engineering Division.Just as I was about to slip my phone back into my pocket, it buzzed again.Another message from Jay: Informant says he just entered the Sports Complex's hockey rink for solo practice before the rest of his team arrives for evening training.The corners of my lips slowly curled upward.A wave of disdain rolled through me, impossible to suppress even if I'd wanted to.He really was working far too hard.I've met his type before.The kind who couldn't stand watching someone they considered unworthy outperform them.Jealousy, it always began there. Then came resentment.And before long, they were willing to do the unthinkable just to drag the other person back down.It seemed heaven a

Chapter: I will ruin your brotherKAELI watched her face drain of color, fear bleaching every trace of confidence from it, while her struggles to wrench herself free from my grip grew increasingly frantic.“What do you mean?” she rasped, her voice reduced to a strained whisper by the pressure of my hand around her throat. “I don't even know you. Why are you antagonizing me?”The corner of my lips lifted ever so slightly as I tightened my grip another fraction.“You don't know me? Are you sure about that?” I slammed her back against the desk behind her, the impact rattling everything on it before pinning her there. “Why don't you look at my face?”Tears welled in her eyes almost instantly.The scrape of chairs echoed through the classroom as several of her classmates rushed forward.The girl beside her let out a panicked scream. “Liora!”“Let her go now!” The authoritative voice rang out from behind me.I turned.A brown-haired boy stood there, dressed in a checkered shirt and jeans that practically screamed luxury.

Chapter: Someone about to break your handKAELI couldn't get the words and the images out of my mind throughout the ride to UCLA.The engine roared beneath me, but it did little to drown out the thoughts raging inside my head.Fury tightened my chest until every breath felt heavier than the last, my muscles drawn taut with a tension that refused to ease.According to Jay, Liora had strung my brother along, only to publicly dump him so she could chase after the other team's center forward.I was glad the leech had finally left him.But why did she break his palm before walking away?How dare she?And Zayden…that idiot never fights back.He only knows how to endure, swallow every humiliation, and take shit, bringing me disgrace.Since he has no need for protecting his reputation, I'll do the cleaning myself.Then there was Damon. Those irritating brown eyes refused to leave my mind.For a fleeting moment, gouging them out sounded like the more appropriate solution.Unfortunately, that would probably come with prison time.Not

Groom who wasn't meant to be
Fast-Paced PlotFirst-Person POVDramaAlphaDominantStarGay for youHate to LoveSports
It was no secret that Ryker Frost would burn the world for one person…his little sister, Summer.
So when their rapacious father sold her off to Zarek Lachlan…a sadistic billionaire rumored to have buried his brides before dawn…Ryker did what no sane man would dare.
He took her place.
Now bound in a marriage meant to be a death sentence, Ryker finds himself face to face with a monster… one who watches him like prey instead of a sacrifice.
Two S-class Alphas.
Two predators forced into one cage.
Ryker—twenty-four, F1 champion, tech prodigy, and a schemer to the bone.
Zarek—twenty-eight, a man wrapped in blood and secrets.
This was never meant to work.
Because when two dragons meet, one doesn’t survive.
On their wedding night, Ryker smirked victoriously.
“Bet you didn’t see this coming.”
Zarek only smiled.
And suddenly… it didn’t feel like Ryker was the one in control.
[Alternate title: married to my sister's fiancé]

Chapter: Ch. 022 Cracks formingRYKERThe room was cold, colder than I remembered, and tidied. It appeared someone had gotten inside to clean it. The room was called mine but never felt like it. Perhaps, it was because deep down, I recognized it for what it was. A giant gilded cage with an air con and soft bed. After a quick trip to the bathroom to wash up, I opened my laptop to continue my work. My mind drifted to Summer, I didn't call her tonight. It was already so late. It must be almost morning in Hong Kong. Let's wait a few more hours. My fingers flew over the key pads, going through the slides and messages I had missed. I need to make a trip to the office, maybe tomorrow. I've stayed out of Zero tech holdings for more than a week now. Even with competent staff driving the boat, I still know nothing beats overseeing things yourself. Howard's move to botch our new chip development meant he had someone working on the inside, and that person needed to be found and flushed out. He must be furious because of the s

Chapter: Ch. 021 Acting strange, like a lost puppyRYKERI had barely crossed the threshold when I heard the sound of running feet. My eyes moved towards the stairs while I extended the car keys to a maid waiting by the door. It was Zarek Lachlan. He rushed to me. I tried to draw back, but he was already holding my arm. His face lit up, eyes filled with genuine joy and relief. “You're home.”I scoffed, lips curling. “What? You thought I would run away. You sure know your own nature.”He shook his head, totally missing the sharp insults hidden in my second sentence. “It's not like that. I wasn't thinking you would run away.”The expression on his face let me know even he wasn't so sure of what he was spouting. “If I want to leave, I will just move. No need to sneak around or run like a fugitive. You're not so powerful that I will run away in fear when you approach.” My tone was harsh and grating, but he nodded, totally not minding my attitude. He clutched my arm, the smile on his face made me sneer. He looked like a teenage girl ou

Chapter: Ch. 020 Please don't run awayZAREK 1:00 P.M [Eleven hours earlier] My eyes were fixed on the slide, watching for flaws. Two assistants stood behind me, pens moving in silence. Beside the slide, an omega man stood, giving the presentation. His voice was steady but faint tremors could be seen on his hand. For gatherings such as these, I’ve always tried my best to keep my aura and pheromones restrained to avoid affecting the staff. People outside call me demon, forgetting that the demon they spoke about ran most of the organizations that offered equal compensation and favorable working conditions for everyone in the ABO system. Some omegas earn way higher than alphas in my companies, depending on how well they discharged their duties. Numbers didn’t care about rank. “The fifth slide…” The man’s breath caught, his face going pale as if I was going to eat him alive. His throat worked. Before I could point out my observation or request a correction, my personal phone rang. My brows furrowed. Few people knew thi

Chapter: Ch. 019 HypocriticalRYKER Rage was the first emotion that hit my heart the moment I heard their absurd suggestion. Hot and fast, scorching the inside of my chest. Then embarrassment followed right behind it, crawling up my neck and burning my ears. “You’re really treating me like a gigolo, aren’t you?” I spat the words out, eyes blazing. My voice came out rougher than I meant it to. Japheth chuckled and spread his arms wide, like he was offering me the world. “Come on, what’s so strange about that? He’s your husband for fuck’s sake. If you don’t take advantage of him, is he supposed to give it out to other people? Just ask him to sponsor. His money is now shared marital assets.” “Shared marital assets?” I gasped, half anger, half disgust. His absurd suggestion was biting hard on my nerves, teeth sinking deep. Me, beg Zarek for a favor? That wolf dog would finally find a leverage to keep me shackled, like some lowly consort waiting for scraps. I would never give him that kind of power over me. Not

Chapter: Ch. 018 Absurd suggestionRYKERMy eyes drifted shut, and I inhaled a ragged breath. I cut the call, and set my phone to silence. A strong stomp to Caelum's foot followed. He howled in pain and turned the other side, doubling over as he shook his leg, still laughing beneath the pain. “For the final time, he's not my husband.” I spat through gritted teeth. “This is just a temporal arrangement till I figure out better ways to keep my sister out of harm's way.”Japheth sneers. Malik laughs. Most of them didn't seem to believe me. “Who knows, you might end up,” Toby gestures with two fingers in the air. “Falling in love.”“Pah!” I almost choked on my drink, then I burst into laughter, slapping my thighs, shoulders quaking with mirth. “Me…” I pointed to myself, lips curled. “Fall in love with Lachlan?”I laughed some more and shook my head. “You really have a taste for bland humour.”The omega hostess brought a plate of the roasted chicken, and pulled a stool beside me and placed it on it. Then she squatted bes

Chapter: Ch. 017 Best place to be—homeRYKERReluctantly, I began to wash the pots and dishes. I loved my place sparkling clean. Taking out the trash followed, then sorting through my wardrobe. Just my bad habits at work. It didn't need much touch up. Once I was satisfied that everything was perfect. I turned on the air con, kicked off my shoes and dived into my bed. Within seconds, I was knocked out, sleeping with such comfort and happiness that I never felt in Zarek's castle. This was the difference between home and prison. A prison was still a prison, no matter how luxurious it appeared to be. My ringtone was what woke me up. I yawned, hating the idiot that interrupted my heavenly nap. I pulled the blanket over my head and tried to go back to sleep. The caller was persistent, causing the phone to ring over and over. “Which mother fucker is this?” My hand reached for the phone, simultaneously kicking the blanket aside. It was Caelum. I should have known. The idiot was the only one thick headed enough to invade my per
