BATTLE ON THE ICE
He ruled the pack. He dominated the ice. But he couldn’t fight the raw, unyielding pull of his new Luna.
I was just a palace maid cleaning up the wreckage of Alpha Williams’s broken marriage until a single, adrenaline-fueled public kiss branded me a homewrecker and stripped away my anonymity. To protect my name, he placed a ring on my finger, made me the Luna of the Northern Pack, and swore to give me the life I always dreamed of.
But behind closed doors, our massive wedding bed remained ice-cold.
Driven by guilt and a desperate, aching desire for a husband who refuses to touch me, I suspect his heart is still tethered to his unhinged, violent ex-wife—who is doing everything in her power to lure him back into her bed.
Tired of weeping in the shadows of his palace, I trade my maid’s uniform for a hockey jersey, stepping onto the ice to claim my own power. But when his ex-wife rigs the tournament to destroy me, Williams finally drops his stoic defense. He steps onto the ice, his large, commanding hands guiding my body, teaching me his lethal moves, and igniting a savage, breathless passion neither of us can deny.
The game is dirty. The stakes are deadly. And this time, I’m not just playing for the pack—I’m skating to win the heart of the Alpha who commands my soul.
"She cleaned his palace. Now, she's conquering his ice."

Chapter: CHAPTER FIVESALOME POVNow, in my life, he was the one making all the decisions.I just sat there on the edge of the bed, staring at Alpha Williams as my chest rose and fell in shallow gasps. My mind was spinning backward. I came to the Alpha’s palace to serve as a maid, to scrub floors and wash dishes, not to marry the Alpha himself. And the worst part of it all, the thing that was twisting a knife deep in my gut, was the memory of how I got here. It was Mariam who had interviewed me. She was the one who looked at my poor background, listened to the story of my mother’s death, and gave me the job.No matter how violent or cruel she had been to him, marrying the Alpha felt like an absolute betrayal to her."Alpha, please listen to me," I pleaded, my voice cracking as I pulled my hands out of his tight grip. "You cannot do this. I am a maid. Marrying me will only prove her right. The whole world will think I seduced you away from her. It feels wrong. It feels like a betrayal to the woman who broug

Chapter: CHAPTER FOURSALOMEIn the weeks that followed the divorce, the palace became a very quiet, lonely place. Alpha Williams poured himself entirely into his sport. Every single morning, he would leave the house before the sun even came up to go to his hockey games or training sessions, and he wouldn't return home until very late at night.It was absolutely not in my place to take care of him. I was just a maid, and my duties should have ended in the kitchen or with the laundry. But the heavy weight of guilt still crushed my chest every time I looked at his empty living room. I still felt like I was the reason his marriage had ended. Because of that guilt, I found myself doing extra things for him. I stayed up late, waiting for the sound of his car in the driveway. I served him his dinner, made sure his tea was perfectly hot, arranged his clothes, and did other stuffs a wife does for a husband—well, except sleeping with him, of course. We never even touched. He was always polite, but he looked so exha

Chapter: CHAPTER THREESALOMEAlpha Williams didn't care that I was resisting. He kept his grip firm around my wrist, pulling me up the grand staircase while my worn-out suitcase clattered against the wooden steps behind us.Luna Mariam was already standing at the top of the stairs, her arms crossed, her eyes bursting with pure hatred when she saw us."What is the meaning of this, Williams?" she shrieked, her voice echoing through the high ceilings. "I told that bitch to leave! She leaves this house right now, or I leave!"Alpha Williams totally ignored her. He didn't even look her way. He just kept walking, pulling me past her down the hallway. He stopped in front of a heavy oak door—a beautiful guest room just two doors down from his own private bedroom. He opened it, nudged me inside along with my suitcase, and looked down at me."Stay here, Salome. You're not going anywhere," he said softly, his voice full of an exhausting weight. Then, he closed the door, leaving me alone in the dim room.It was alread

Chapter: CHAPTER TWOSALOMEHe didn't take me to the palace clinic. I thought he would drop me off with the pack doctors, but instead, Alpha Williams carried me straight up the grand staircase and into his private bedroom.The room smelled like cedarwood and winter air. It was a massive, quiet space where regular staff were never allowed to enter. He placed me down on his huge bed so gently, as if I were made of glass that might shatter completely if he wasn't careful."Stay still," he whispered, his voice thick with tension.The sheets beneath me were pure white silk, and I felt sick knowing I was ruining them with my blood. My face felt like it was on fire. A throbbing, white-hot pain pulsed from my cheekbone all the way down to my jaw, making my eyes water. But I squeezed my eyes shut and clenched my fists. I had to hold the pain in. I couldn't let it show. I was just a maid, and showing weakness in front of the Alpha felt dangerous, even if he was being kind right now.Williams disappeared into his ba

Chapter: CHAPTER ONESALOMEThe sound of glass shattering against the wall made me jump, but I kept my eyes glued to the floor.It was a heavy glass whiskey bottle. Luna Mariam had aimed straight for Alpha Williams's head, but luckily for him, he was able to dodge it. The bottle missed him by two inches and scattered all over the hardwood floor, sending sharp, glittering shards everywhere.Still, Alpha Williams Sphere said nothing. He just stood there, wiping a stray drop of liquor from his cheek, his face completely blank.I stood in the corner of the grand living room, holding my tray tight against my chest. My heart was hammering, but I forced my breathing to stay steady. As a maid in the Alpha's palace, I had learned to mind my business even when there was a brutal fight going on between the Alpha and his wife. If you want to survive in this pack house, you become invisible.But honestly? Inside my head, I was reeling. Luna Mariam was incredibly violent. She was always hitting him with hard objects, t
