Heated Rivalry: Passion On Ice
“How dare you disgrace the family?” Richard Donovan’s voice was as sharp as his grasp on little Samantha's arm.
At twelve years old, Samantha Donovan realized one thing, some dreams aren't made for girls.
Samantha Donovan gets exiled for six years, because she dared to play hockey in her twin brother's place.
Not until a phone call changes everything, her twin brother is brutally injured, and Richard has a condition.
She gets to play again, but in disguise of her brother, the very reason he exiled her.
She has to take Adrian Volkov's place by any means possible.
Adrian Volkov was the son of her father's number one enemy.
The real danger was not in hiding her identity, but having Adrian Volkov, the insanely hot captain and guy she's supposed to beat as a roommate.
He is cold, arrogant, calculative and very suspicious of Samantha.
Each encounter brings them dangerously close together, heat and passion sparks on and off the rink.
Samantha fears Adrian finding her secret, and their family feud was another factor she has to consider.

Chapter: Chapter Sixty-twoAdrian's POVThe whispers reached my ears, but I paid no attention to them.“I can't believe he hurt him.”“Aren't they best friends?”“That's some cold-hearted shit right there.”Flashes of the phone camera entered my eyes.My head remained lowered as coach Stanley escorted me like a prisoner to the principal's office.I had told Zeke to take Samantha to the school's clinic.“Do not leave her under any circumstances. You can't leave her.” I told him“You don't have to tell me. I know what to do. She's safe with me.”Aside from Zeke, there was no one else that I could trust fully in this school.The red mark I saw around Samantha's neck made something inside of me crack.Jim had no right to lay hands on her.Do I regret what I did? No.I would do it a hundred times, even worse, if he plucked a strand of hair from her head.“What the hell got into you, Volkov?” Coach Stanley snarled as we continued walking.The walk to the principal's office suddenly became longer than usual.The secre

Chapter: Chapter Sixty-oneSamantha's POVThings were back to normal for a while; or should I say somethings were back to normal?Zeke's outburst towards Sharon had somehow circulated through the entire school.And for some odd reason, Sharon was still in the schoolI expected that, with the way she broke down in tears, she'd be out of Northbrook academy that very day.Instead, she stayed behind. Perhaps with the hope that Zeke would return to her.Zeke, on the other hand, was not doing well.He walked around like a zombie with a forced smile plastered on his face.I have asked him a million times if he was okayHis response was always the same. That he made the right call.When it was obvious that he was being drowned deeper in heartbreak.I just wished he'd settle things with her and be happy again.When I asked Adrian, he said this was the first time anyone has ever seen them have a disagreement.Well, if he doesn't want to fix things with her, the best I can do is be there for him whenever he needs me.I wa

Chapter: Chapter SixtyZeke's POV.Samantha slipped right out of the classroom as Sharon wrapped me in her embraceMy body just gave in to her hold and betrayed me.I thought I didn't want to see her again, but here I was, melting into her hold.I guess my heart still cares for her as much as my brain still refuses to accept it.I pulled away from her hold to look into her perfect grey eyes.“I thought you'd be out of the country by now.”She pushed my head gently.“No, silly, I said I would be back, and now I am here.”A grunt came out of my lungs. It was the first time that she actually said she would return, and she did.I sat on one of the desk, my fingers intertwined“What about your mom? What did she say about your decision?”"Nothing. I am tired of moving around the world. I want to be stable, and with you.”She leant in, and her lips grazed the corner of my cheek.“That's good, I guess.”She took a step backward.“You guess? What is that supposed to mean?”My mouth twitched a little as I contemplate

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-nineZeke's POV.Her cheeks flushed pink as I pointed out the wide hickey on her neck.It was very obvious. I don't know how she missed it.My eyes widened as I realised how she must have got it.“Don't tell me.” My voice came out hoarsely.She turned on the chair and faced the front of the class"Sam," I called her name.Her fingers played on her neck, her eyes somewhat distant.Like she was meditating on what happened before now.So, I kicked her chair. It gave a scraping sound as it moved forward."Sam," I called her again.She turned around“Yes.” “Don't tell me you are still making out with Adrian.”It came out more like a question to the already obvious answer showing on her neck“It just happened, okay?"My grip tightened around the edges of the locker.This was not the Sam I knew, even before I knew her real identity.She was never this careless. At this rate, they were going to get exposed.And she'd be the one getting burnt; Adrian, on the other hand, has nothing to lose.How ca

Chapter: Chapter Thirty-eightSamantha's POVAs I showered in the bathroom, my mind went back to how I pulled Adrian in and kissed him like I needed oxygen.My plan was to give him as much cold attitude as I could until whatever it was that I was feeling dissipates.But the way he blocked me from leaving, those beautiful eyes of his just soaked me in.I couldn't help it, especially when he said he wants to kiss me too.We don't know what it is yet, but we definitely like each other. And it's not just some ordinary liking.It's a start for me, and I was ready to go slow.A gentle knock came from the bathroom door, and I turned off the shower.“Adrian'?” “What's taking you so long?”My face turned red at the sound of his voice.“Duhhh, I normally take this long.”“Do you want to come join you?”I quickly dragged my towel from its hanger and wrapped it around my chest. It was long enough to cover my thighs.“Don't even dare.”I shouted when I noticed the knob of the bathroom door getting turned“Relax, I'm still out

Chapter: Chapter Fifty-sevenAdrian's POVDonovan ignored me through our practice. She made sure to keep a safe distance.Even from Zeke.I was beginning to think that it was more than the argument I had with Zeke.At the end of practice that day, she was already out of the ice before anyone else “Adrian, have you sorted out your differences with Donovan?” The coach barked. It's crazy that we were in a good place before and now she doesn't even want to look at me “Yes coach, we are.” “Good, because I need you two on that duo thing you guys performed in the last game.” I let out a sigh. “Okay, Coach." “That's it for today, boys. Go rest your bodies.” He shouted. Zeke was walking directly in front of me. I didn't know when I reached out to touch his shoulder. His body tensed when he saw that I was the one who touched him “Let's talk.” The same word he and Donovan used when they approached me “Now you want to talk.” He growled “Can you be a little mature about this? It's not about me. It's about Donov
