Ruined by the Hockey Captain

“Denying me the privilege to taste your body is a death sentence I refuse to accept, especially since all I want is to consume you, all of you till there’s nothing left, Lady bug”…
~
Rhea Hale has spent the last four years paying for a crime she never committed.
Blamed for her twin sister’s death and forced to live in the shadow of the girl everyone loved more, Rhea has become an expert at surviving heartbreak, whispers, and loneliness. The only thing keeping her together is the small circle of people who still believe in her innocence.
Until the night she catches her boyfriend cheating with her best friend.
Humiliated and desperate for a fresh start, Rhea heads to Westbridge University determined to keep her head down and make it through the year unnoticed.
That plan is ruined the moment she’s forced to share a dorm with Zander Cole—the university’s hockey captain.
Grey-eyed menace with a reputation as cold as the ice he dominates.
Zander doesn’t do attachments, and he definitely doesn’t do broken girls. But when his bad reputation threatens his hockey future, he proposes a deal that could save them both:
Fake date him for six months, help repair his image, and in return, he’ll make sure no one touches her… well, except him.
It should have been simple.
Except pretending quickly turns dangerous when stolen kisses become addictive, jealousy turns possessive, and the boy who was supposed to protect her becomes the only one capable of completely ruining her.
In a story filled with lies, betrayal, and buried truths, Rhea is about to discover that some secrets were never meant to stay hidden...

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY SEVEN~ZANDER~ I instantly regretted my words when I saw the look on her face.Had I been too harsh? Fuck, why did I care if I was being too harsh? It was true, wasn't it?Her eyes gathered with tears and I had expected her to cry but instead, she smiled.“I deserve that and I agree, I am pathetic but I'm trying to be better. Believe it or not, I came here for you and for the remainder of this trip, you are going to have to tolerate me” She uttered then turned away And plopped herself on the couch.“Goodnight” She said as she got comfortable and I sighed while massaging my temples.“Get up and get on the damn bed” I muttered.“I'm comfortable here…”“If you think I'm going to let you sleep on the couch then you're out of your damn mind. I'm not a gentleman but I know right from wrong” I told her and she slowly turned to me with a frown.“Then where would you sleep? On the couch? I can't let you…”“I said I knew right from wrong, not that I was a good samaritan. The bed is big Enough for

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY SIX~RHEA ~ Zander glanced between us silently before he walked away.How long had he been standing there?I didn't see him today the rest of the time and just spent time walking around with Aisha and familiarising myself with everyone else.I didn't feel judged here nor mocked so it was easy to warm up to them. Even Kai wasn't so hostile anymore.“I realized I might have been a little harsh to you” Kai said as he sat down beside on lounger chairs.“I deserved it” I responded and he let out a sigh.“True…” I rolled my eyes with a smile. “But I could have been kinder with my words especially now that I'm seeing that you are really trying to make it up to him” “I messed up and I know that” I confessed.“It's not going to be easy as Zander is very stubborn person but I'm Rooting for you. We are all tired of Mr grumpy pants” He said and a few others guys agreed with him which made me giggle.“It's getting late, shouldn't you be heading to bed?” I glanced up and saw Mason towering over me.

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY FIVE~RHEA~ “I don't think this is a good idea, Aisha” I muttered as I glanced at the guys as they huddled around the coach, probably discussing their allocations.Zander stormed out after what Coach said and I haven't seen him since.“Of course it's a good idea, Rhea. Have you ever heard of the one bed troupe?” Heather uttered from the phone.I had immediately called her earlier as Aisha excluded ourselves from the guys to discuss.“The what?” I asked with a confused tone and she sighed.“Fuck, I forgot you don't read”“Hey…”“Either way, being in the same room with Zander is exactly what you both need. I promise you, you guys are going to come back to campus attached to the hip” She said and I let out a sigh.“I don't know, Heather. He looked pretty mad…”“Can I speak on this?” Aisha interrupted my words.“Please talk some sense into her” Heather muttered through the phone.“You came on the trip to make it up to him and to get Zander back, didn't you?” She asked and I nodded.“I did bu

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY FOUR~RHEA ~ I woke up to the sound of laughter echoing throughout the bus.“Are you done drooling on me?” I heard Zander's deep voice above my head.I slowly lifted up my gaze, and he was staring down at me with a frown. Only then did I realise that not only had I been clinging onto his arm, but I had been resting on him too.“Are you going to let go?” He uttered with annoyance laced in his tone, and I immediately let go of him as I wiped at my mouth.Luckily, there wasn't any drool, or that would have been embarrassing.“Sorry, I didn't…” Zander was up from his seat before I could complete my sentence.“Excuse me” He uttered, then pushed past me, and I watched with a frown as he walked out of the bus.“Are you coming, or are you planning on staying in here instead?” Aisha asked as she walked up to me, and only then did I realize that Zander and I had been the last people on the bus.I gathered my stuff and followed her out of the bus and gasped when I glanced around.I knew we were go

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY THREE~ZANDER~ I frowned at the several missed calls from my mother. She wasn't giving up, was she?Mother: When you're back from your retreat, can you come visit? Let's have dinner together as a family again.I closed my eyes and exhaled sharply. Why couldn't she understand that the family she held so close to her heart didn't exist anymore?“I can't deal with this shit right now” I muttered as I stuck my phone into my back pocket.Last night had been a drag and as much as I wanted to not care about anything that has to do with Rhea, she was all I could think about last night.I wasn't proud of the thoughts that plagued my mind last night and also hated that I couldn't seem to push her away.Why was this happening to me? Was it because of all the broken hearts I've rendered to multiple girls?Shit didn't even make any sense.I felt a light tap on my shoulder. I glanced up slightly and Kai towered over me with a bright smile on his face.“Are you ready? Coach is getting angsty” He stated a

Chapter: CHAPTER FORTY TWO~RHEA ~ I sat silently in the front seat of Mason's car while Heather argued with Kai.Mason was currently on his way to drop us off at Aisha's dorm. She has asked us to stay over and Richard, Her Fiance, agreed to stay with Mason and Kai for the night.Mason insisted on driving me there because he wanted to make sure I was okay and Heather refused to leave my side especially since Kai wouldn't stop glaring at me.“Can you get a life and leave her alone?” Heather muttered through clenched teeth and he scoffed.“I didn't even do anything. She…”“Are you okay, Rhea?” Mason's Voice halted their argument and the car went silent as they turned to me.I tried to flash him a smile but it looked more like a grimace.My lips still tingled from Zander's kiss and my whole body was still hot from his touch.So no, I wasn't okay.“I just need to rest” I said softly then laid my head on the window.No one said anything after that till we got to Aisha's Dorm.“Call if you girls need anything.
