Rebounding With The Alpha Hockey Star
"Eyes on me, Willow," he hissed, voice dangerously low. "I won't let you sit there and pretend it's someone else."
I bit my lip, shaking my head.
"Look at me!" he ordered.
The sheer command in his voice had my eyes flying open.
"Good girl, I won't have you pretend I'm the wrong brother."
******************************
Willow Thompson thought the worst thing that could happen to her was public humiliation.
She was wrong.
Because catching her boyfriend cheating in the hockey locker room is only the beginning.
Theo Spencer is popular, charming, and used to getting everything he wants. Breaking up with him should have ended the drama.
Instead, it starts a war.
A war that drags in his stepbrother.
Aiden Cross — the Alpha’s son, captain of the hockey team, and the most dangerous wolf in the school.
When Willow impulsively kisses Aiden on the ice in front of everyone, it’s supposed to be revenge.
Nothing more.
A fake relationship meant to drive Theo insane.
But the more time Willow spends with Aiden, the harder it becomes to remember what was supposed to be fake.
Because beneath the cold exterior, Aiden is protective, relentless… and dangerously easy to fall for.
And Willow has secrets of her own.
Secrets that could turn the entire school upside down.
Because Willow Thompson isn’t just the scholarship cheerleader everyone thinks she is.
She’s also the hidden daughter of one of the most powerful men in the supernatural world.
Now jealousy is turning to obsession.
Enemies are beginning to circle.
And in a school filled with wolves, vampires, and power-hungry rivals, Willow is about to learn one very important lesson:
Falling for the Alpha’s son was never supposed to happen.
But surviving the fallout might be even harder.

Chapter: CHAPTER 248TheoShe’s here.I can feel her presence in my living room. As I turn the door knob, I’m trying to fight the urge to just kick the door in.I enter my apartment and sure enough, Darla is standing in the middle of my living room, hands propped on her hips.I shut the door with a bang and storm towards her. “What the fuck did I say about showing up here without informing me?”She’s not scared of me. Not in the slightest. Infact, she matches my glare with an even more intense look. “Did you kill the hockey player?”“What? No.” I scowl deeper. “Is that what you came here to ask me? I told you before and I’ll say it again, you have no right to break into my space. The next time you do, I won’t be so nice.”“You must have had someone do it,” she insists, holding my scalding gaze. “Who was it? And why? Is this about Aiden? Was this your way of unnerving him?”“Fine,” I seethe, clenching my fists at my sides. “I killed the idiot. But don’t worry. I didn’t do it myself. I had someone else do i

Chapter: CHAPTER 247Aiden“I know you’re still very suspicious of me,” Theo holds his hand out. “Father was right. We need to put our issues aside, if we’re going to work together effectively.”He must have overheard my conversation with Spencer. That must be why he’s saying this.I don’t shake his outstretched hand. I just continue to observe him wordlessly. Theo sees I’m not going to shake his hand and puts it away. He rounds the table to stand in front of me. “Think about it, brother. What else could I possibly do to take away what you’ve got now? I was at today’s meeting. I saw how everyone regarded you. You’re the successor. Everyone seems to thinks so. You’re safe. You can relax. I have no ill intentions towards you.”“I see you’re still hellbent on keeping this act up, even though I can see right through it.” I sigh, shaking my head at him. “Fine. Have it your way, brother. But just so you know, whatever you plan to do, be it now or later, it’s not going to work.”“I’m not planning anything other

Chapter: CHAPTER 246AidenI’ve been granted a temporary office at headquarters.My trial period, as Darla likes to call it, entails learning everything there is to know about Spencer’s business. In addition to that, I have to work hard to impress the board. Hence the office. “The more often those old gas bags see you at headquarters, the more likely they are to take you seriously.” Darla turns around to wink at me. She’s arrived at my place with a car that Spencer had arranged to bring me to headquarters.“But I won the trials. Why do I have to try so hard?” I roll my eyes at the way Darla is smiling patiently at me. “That’s because there are always those looking to take away everything the boss has worked so hard to build. If you don’t prove yourself now, Aiden, I’m afraid your opponents won’t hesitate to come at you, once you become the president of the corporation.”President. The amount of dread that single word carries should be studied. “Fine.” I let out a heavy breath. “I already went throug

Chapter: CHAPTER 245VioletMeeting the dirtbag that nearly ruined my life isn’t the best idea I’ve ever had. But it’s one that needs to be carried out. I’ve spent several weeks hating myself; blaming myself for not being perceptive or strong enough to resist a vampire’s tricks. I’ve heard from Willow and Ginny, even Vincent about how much Rowan has suffered all summer. But now, I get to see it. The floor where they are keeping him looks like a lab. Like something a mad scientist would own. It’s all one huge giant space, comprised of work stations, operation tables, glass encasements. Turns out Rowan is being held in one of those glass encasements. The moment I set my eyes on him, I gasp. I actually take a couple of steps backwards and cover my mouth with my hands. Willow gasps too. She must have been oblivious to the extent of damage that’s been done to Rowan. “You two can leave at any time,” Vincent reminds us. Yeah, I know that. I know that no one is forcing me to be here. I can turn around r

Chapter: CHAPTER 244WillowSome guy named Cody is dead. He was a newly recruited player on the omega hockey team. The way he died is what everyone is trying to figure out. Lycan guards arrive on campus. Bonfire night is officially over. The she-wolf who had found Cody’s body—her name is Deena. She’s questioned by the guards. Her memories are checked to collaborate her claims. The omega hockey players are interrogated as well. Everyone claims not to have seen Cody for hours… everyone except Nathan.Aiden is the one who fills me in on his report to the guards. “Nathan had spoken to Cody an hour after he died, to apologize the way I asked him to.”“You sure that’s all that transpired between them?” I ask him, but my eyes are fastened on the gunnery, currently conveying Cody’s mangled body into the ambulance.“No way to tell. Plus, he’s got a strong alibi… Ginny… he’s been with her for most of the night.”“Did a werewolf really do that to him?” I swallow the lump in my throat. “It wasn’t a vampire? Or a hy

He must have caught sight of Theo and I talking and naturally assumed that he was harassing me.To be fair, Theo has done plenty of that in the past so I don’t blame my boyfriend for assuming the worst. “Aiden.” Theo smiles that annoying little smile, that’s starting to piss me off. “Good to see you. How are you enjoying the bonfire tonight?”“Theo.” Aiden acknowledges him with a nod. “What were you just saying to my girlfriend?”“It’s fine, sweetie.” I wrap my arms around his neck, leaning up to kiss his cheek. Out of the corner of my eye, I spy Theo watching us with that carefully curated expression. “I was just saying hi to Theo. That’s all.”It must be hell, struggling to stay calm. Whatever he’s planning, it must be really important, seeing how badly he’s trying not to react to us.I meant what I said to him. If he tries to hurt Aiden in anyway, I won’t stay still. And I know my friends won’t either. Ginny is close friends

The Lycan's Rejected Mate
"This isn't supposed to happen," I whisper, my voice soft. "You shouldn't be here."
"Do you want me to leave?"
I should say no, but I don't. "Elias-"
He steps closer, his lips ghosting over mine. "Tell me to go, Isadora. Tell me to leave."
I don't.
Instead, I kiss him.

Chapter: CHAPTER 196 ELIAS“Are you sure this is not a trap?” Carlos asked as I signalled for him to stop. “Stop talking out loud. Of course it's not a trap. The spy has no reason to lie,” I responded in his head. “You mean except for the fact that he was turning into a mutant wolf and could have been asked by the scientist to lead us here for a cure?”I said nothing for a moment, letting my Beta's words sink into my brain. Carlos was right. When the spy — who turned out to be one of my closest guards — came to turn himself in, my first reaction was that it was a lie. A trap to lure me and the rest of the army to our deaths. But when he played me the recording of the conversation he had with that bastard, I believed him. There was a chance that the conversation could have been doctored too, but the desperation in the guard's eyes tipped me over. “A dead man has no tongue, Carlos.”“Well, he's dead now, and we are here already, so we might as well go all in,” he shrugged. Killing the guard was a difficult

Chapter: CHAPTER 195 ELIAS“We still haven't found the spy, Elias. What if that bastard already knows all of our plans? What if that man is out there, planning all sorts of countermeasures? Before we can do anything else, Elias, we need to find the spy.”Carlos’s voice was filled with urgency as he paced the length of my study. I laced my fingers together and stared at him without saying a word. He looked terrible. Bags hung under his eyes as if he had not slept in days There was some sort of gaunt quality to him too, and his energy was a nervous ball knotted around his neck like a weight. Something was bothering Carlos, and I had a feeling that it was not the war we were preparing to fight. At least it was not just that.“Why are you so jumpy, Carlos? What is going on?” I asked, my voice cutting across his nervous, frantic energy. He stopped pacing and turned to face me. “What do you mean?”My gaze remained steady. “You heard me, Carlos. Something is up with you and it is turning you into a nervous wreck. A

Chapter: CHAPTER 194SOMEWHERE IN A HIDDEN BUNKER VERY CLOSE TO ELIAS’S PACKThe scientist ran a hand down the length of the table, his expression placid and betraying nothing. He was in a study, and the room was dusty. There was a chair right behind the desk he was running his hands along, but the chair was filled with so much dust and debris that it was impossible to sit on. It wasn't as though the scientist was keen on sitting anyway. He was waiting for someone, and with each moment that passed, he became even more impatient. After waiting for what felt like forever, someone rapped on the door. “Come in.”The door opened and a dark figure stepped in. The stranger was clothed in black from head to toe. Whoever it was had a raincoat on, and the hood of the coat covered the face and made it unrecognisable. The scientist however, knew who it was. Afterall, the person was the spy he had planted in Elias’s pack a long time ago. One he had had no use for until now. “Did you deliver the note?” the scient

Chapter: CHAPTER 193 ELIASPride swelled in my chest.One moment, Isadora completely zoned out on me as she read the note. With my heart right at the base of my throat, I remained where I stood, watching her reaction. Little wolf remained frozen for an entire minute. It was the longest fucking minute of my life, and just when I could not take it anymore, she blinked. Her eyes fluttered back to life, and the smoldering rage, the fire in them made me want to kiss her. Her proclamation was filled with authority, and for the first time since she became my Luna, Isadora called on the power of her title and her authority. Her aura filled the room. It was a goddamn pleasure to watch. I took her hand in mine and squeezed, a satisfied smile on my face. She met my gaze, her eyes shining with anger and defiance. Together, we turned to face the audience. “We are going to need every hand on deck for this fight. There is no neutral ground. You are either with me and with the pack, or against us. Anyone who wants to assu

Chapter: CHAPTER 192 ISADORAOne moment, my mind was at peace and I was happy. Nothing could ever go wrong, I thought. But then I wake up the next morning to find my mate preparing to go to war. My insides were fraught with anxiety as the council members took their seats, the lesser alphas settling down behind them. Carlos looked like he was prepared to tear into a battlefield as he took his position, deciding to stand behind Elias rather than seating beside his Alpha. Patrick and Erina sat side by side, and the room was as silent as a graveyard. Tension was high, and uncomfortable, wary silence stretched and bended, taking up space in every corner of the room.Elias stood up after what felt like forever. His expression was placid, and one would almost mistake him as calm, but he was not. Elias was absolutely nowhere close to being calm. His anger was a living thing. It writhed and twisted around him, wrapping hot red hands around his neck and squeezing hard until anger was all my mate was feeling. “War has

Chapter: CHAPTER 191 ELIASIsadora's chest was rising and falling in tandem with mine, and I was transfixed as I watched her sleep. There was some sort of lull in my head, rocking me into a peaceful, blissful feeling. The sun was already peeking out from behind the clouds, but I was in no hurry to wake her up. If she wanted to sleep all day, there was no need to stop her. I needed to get up though.Very gently, I eased her head away from my chest and placed it on the bed. Isadora shifted at the movement, but she didn't wake up. Draping the duvet over her, I leaned down and kissed her forehead before padding over to the bathroom to freshen up. I was getting dressed when Carlos knocked on the door. “I'll be right outside,” I called out to him, and he said nothing. His energy was unsettling though. Something was bothering my Beta. His emotions were a mixture of anger and wariness, and my brows furrowed into a frown as I buttoned up my shirt. When I pulled the door open, he immediately handed me an envelope.

The only people who saw the real me were my family. They saw every breakdown, every nervous wreck, every tear. A few years ago, I would have hated the idea of anyone seeing me weak but now, I was glad to have people I could lean on.It took months, but I was fine now. Marie was convicted of Charles’ murder as well as the other two and my kidnapping. She was never getting out of jail for the rest of her life and the thought made me giddy.“Stop watching the sentencing,” Kate chided, turning off the TV. “It’s over now.”I rolled my eyes at her. “It relaxes me.”She raised a brow. “A court case relaxes you?”“If I was allowed to go to work, I wouldn’t need to watch the sentencing,”She stared at me incredulously. “You’re ready to pop.

A small groan left my lips and all eyes turned to me.“Baby,” Jake’s voice cracked as he made his way over to me. His eyes were dull and hollow as he rushed to my side, his hand softly stroking my cheek. “How do you feel?”“Like I was run over,” I mumbled. “What happened?”“Marie took you.”I nodded slowly. “I remember that. I remember running in the forest.”“We were calling out to you. You slipped and rolled down a hill.”The memories came flooding back.

She surprisingly looked good for someone who had just shot two men in cold blood.“Don’t look so terrified. You’ve witnessed a murder too, haven’t you?”I swallowed. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”She snorted. “Please, I’ve been alive far longer than you have. I know all about the boy that was thirsting after you and his body that was found.”“Again, I don’t know what-”She aimed the gun right at my face. “Lie to me again, I dare you.”I didn’t dare speak, I just stared straight at her and forced my expression to neutral. She was crazy, far crazier than Jake had led me to imagine. I couldn’t help but wonder if this was a recent development or if she had always been this insane.“I thought so,” she mumbled before lowering the gun. “Do you know what this is?”When I said nothing, she made her way over to me and grab

It was the best time I had in a long time but as always, every good thing must come to an end.I lay across Jake’s chest asleep when my phone rang loud. I mumbled a small curse under my breath, reaching out to silence the call. I hoped that whoever it was would take the hint and stop calling but my phone rang again.“Do you want me to answer it?” Jake asked but I shook my head, grabbing the phone blindly and picking up.“Hello?”“Where’s Jake?” my father’s panicked voice filled my ears.“He’s right here. Why didn’t you call him?”“I did, the bastard probably has his phone on do not disturb.

It had its own living room and the room was so large that I took a double take. Jake stood behind me, one hand on my hip as I took in the room. I could almost feel his smile against my hair.“You’re quiet, I’m going to assume that you’re impressed,” he drawled, his voice dripping with amusement.“This is amazing,” I breathed turning to him. “How long are we here?”“The plan is one week, but we can stay longer if you want.”I was so overwhelmed that I couldn’t help but lean on my toes and kiss him. “Thank you.”I kissed him again and this time, he pulled me close, one hand tangling in my hair to kiss me deeper.

Chapter: EPILOGUECHARLOTTE’S P.O.V Adamaris and the council were able to break the bond between me and Esmeralda before finally executing her and destroying the talisman. We held Samantha’s burial the next day. It felt wrong to hold it until after Esmeralda was dead. It was so difficult for me to stand next to her body and act like it wasn’t my fault she was dead. Logan assured me no one felt that way, but I felt that way. What made it a lot harder was having to explain to Amelia that her mum was going away. She wasn’t even two yet, she didn’t understand the concept of death, and she just stayed in my arms and kept on screaming the word ‘mummy’ over and over again. Logan tried to take her away from me but she refused to let anyone else hold her. Amelia’s things were moved into our house the day after the funeral. She was a frolicky baby with a terrible sleep schedule. I attributed that to the fact that she missed her mum. Considering each time she woke up, she would ask for her mother. A lot of pe

He was on edge and for good reason too; they hadn’t heard from the witch in a few days and that probably meant she was waiting for a good time to strike.A little girl walked up to Charlotte and softly tugged at the hem of her hoodie. Charlotte turned her attention to the girl with a smile on her face. She crouched down so she was at eye level with her.“Can I help you?” she asked and the girl nodded. “I was wondering how it feels to be pregnant.” Charlotte was taken aback by the question.“I don’t know; I’ll let you know when I am pregnant.”She started to rise but the girl held onto her arm with a grip that seemed too strong for a girl who looked no older

This led Logan to mutter about how witches should get their own mates to do things for them.They kept on trading back and forth quips between themselves until Greg muttered something about how he was close to stabbing his ears with his pencil. I giggled and they both shot me looks as if I had betrayed them.A little over half an hour later, Greg was done with the sketch and when I saw it, I was taken aback by how life like it looked. He got every single feature of her perfectly, from the slight crookedness of her nose to the fullness of her lips and even down to the meanness of her smirk.After staring at it for a while, I passed it on to Adamaris.
