ROXANNE'S POV

Something delayed us and we ended up getting to Manhattan very late at night. "Are you still in shock?" Blake asked, we just walked out of the airport and there was a car waiting for us already.

"Kind of." I muttered, I felt a bit better than before but my mood was still gloomy.

Blake didn't say anything else, we just got into the car and drove out of the airport. I was surprised that mom didn't come to wait for us at the airport. I mean, she hasn't done it before but I expected her to this time. Maybe.

I was stunned when we stopped in front of a wine store and Blake got out of the car without saying anything to me.

I waited in the car and Lorraine called. "Yes?"

"Where are you two? You're still coming right?"

"I-- I think so." The route we took didn't look like we were going to my house. "I think I'm going to sleep over at Blake's penthouse." I could even make out the building from where I sat in the car.

It was closer to the airport than my house.

  • A Chance With The Hockey Alpha Captain   Chapter 113

    Selena’s POVThe light on my wrist kept glowing like it owned me.It pulsed and tugged like some impatient little creature trying to drag me forward. A thin line of light stretched across the broken field, pointing far ahead—straight into dust and ruins—as if it was shouting, “Move! Move now!”Honestly, if the mark could tap its foot at me, it would.Please relax. I just survived an evil Alpha, his golden eye madness, almost died, cried a little, probably lost five years of sleep, and now you want me to sprint? Calm down.But of course, the universe didn’t want me to rest.The air shifted before I could blink.A warm gust brushed past us. Not hot. Not cold. Just warm enough to feel weirdly familiar—like herbs and smoke from a healer’s room.A very dramatic smell suddenly appeared out of nowhere.Cullen stiffened. “She’s here.”And then she arrived.Cullen’s mother stepped through a broken archway like she had been waiting backstage for her grand entrance. Calm steps. Sharp eyes. A dar

  • A Chance With The Hockey Alpha Captain   Chapter 112

    Selena’s pov My stomach tightened.I watched how— whatever that thing was— charging towards me. And I knew one thing— it was coming right at me. For me. Like it knew just what it was looking for. Ava glanced up—eyes huge.“MOVE!”I tried to move, but it felt like my legs were locked on that spot. Keeping me in place and bracing me for the impact. Ava shouted again. As if slapping me back to reality. “SELENA MOVEEE!!!” And my brain quickly switched to protective mode. Like I was a robot and I was being programmed for safety. I moved but— Too late.WAY too late.The glowing streak shot down with a snap that broke the air in half. I lifted my arm to block it—but the moment it touched my skin—BOOM.White light swallowed everything.But it didn’t slice my arm.It didn’t explode me into tiny dramatic pieces.No.It wrapped around me.The glowing magic curled around my wrist like a chain—except this chain burned like anger, like fire with a personality.Just when I thought it was fina

  • A Chance With The Hockey Alpha Captain   Chapter 111

    Selena’s pov The Alpha’s scream did NOT end nicely.Oh no.It dragged through the air like someone dragging a giant metal pot across stone.Long. Sharp. Ugly.His whole body jerked and twisted as the last of the golden eye’s power ripped itself out of him. It tore through his skin like fire that woke up angry.And all I could do was watch.My hands shook. My chest felt hollow, like something inside me had fallen through the floor. Every breath burned like heat. But I stayed on my knees, staring at him as the light around him cracked and broke apart like shattered glass.Then his shadows started dying.Those nasty, crawling, hissing creatures he always used — the ones that acted like they were alive — they began crumbling.One melted quietly, like it was embarrassed to die.Another let out a sharp screech before fading.A third one clawed at the dirt like it didn’t want to go, but even that one fell apart into smoke.And then all the shadows collapsed.Dark dust floated across the fie

  • A Chance With The Hockey Alpha Captain   Chapter 110

    Selena’s pov The voice in my head didn’t sound like a demon.Nope.It sounded… sweet.Like warm honey pouring into hot tea, like someone smiling at you while planning something VERY suspicious.And hell yeah… it was damn too suspicious. That alone terrified me more than the giant blast, more than the flying dirt, more than the Alpha shaking like a broken washing machine under Rowan’s arm.“Take me,” the voice whispered smoothly. “You were born for more. You were made for the throne.”Um.Hello?What throne?Whose throne?Why am I being offered furniture at a time like this?!My whole body froze.The battlefield disappeared.The smoke, the shouting, the Alpha’s creepy choking sounds… gone.Even my heartbeat dipped out like, “Girl, figure this out, I’ll be back.”Everything went quiet except that voice.And then—boom.VISIONS.They didn’t float in.They ATTACKED.One blinkand suddenly I was NOT on the battlefield anymore.I was in a massive silver hall that looked like a royal palace

  • A Chance With The Hockey Alpha Captain   Chapter 109

    Selena’s pov The whole world didn’t just shake—It EXPLODED.The blast from the golden eye hit like someone kicked the universe in the stomach. One second I was standing like a normal person, the next I was flying backward like a dramatic action hero with zero stunt training.And I knew that the landing was going to be so hard. Before I could even finish thinking— I hit the ground so hard my spine filed a complaint.Dust slapped my face. My lungs refused to work. My ears were ringing like church bells having a panic attack.For a second, everything was swirling. My eyes saw three versions of every rock. My brain was doing its best, but honestly? I was confused.Too confused that I almost forgot that I was laying on the floor like a lifeless potato. I pushed myself up, coughing and spitting out dirt like a dying vacuum cleaner.“CULLEN!” I yelled so loudly I surprised myself.No answer.“Rowan!”Nothing.“Ava!”Still nothing.Great. Perfect. Amazing. Love that for me.None of them

  • A Chance With The Hockey Alpha Captain   Chapter 108

    Selena’s povLight snapped around me like someone had flipped the universe’s switch.One moment I was falling through memories like a discount time traveler, and the next—BOOM.I was shooting out of the pit like a glowing rocket.The air smacked my face.Dust kicked up under my boots.The battlefield came back into focus like someone cleaned my vision with Windex.Everything was brighter.Sharper.Louder.Almost too real, like someone upgraded my life to 4K Ultra HD.I was so happy that I didn’t die inside that hole. I would not have gotten a befitting burial because my body would have been nowhere to be found. I barely had time to breathe because—Rowan.The Alpha had Rowan by the throat.NOT holding him politely.Not shaking him gently.No.Holding him up in the air like some kind of demented trophy.And my chest went tight. Rowan’s feet dangled.His sword lay sad and abandoned on the ground.His face had gone pale-white “I need oxygen” color.His hands clawed at the Alpha’s wris
