Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 172: The Lights Go Out
Alex’s POVThe fire alarm blared — high, sharp, ringing through the cold morning air — and for a heartbeat, I thought the whole building would burst open. People should’ve come pouring out, coughing, hurrying, panicking. That was the plan. Chaos. Distraction. Open doors.But nothing happened.I stood pressed against the side of the arena, binoculars still in my hand, Kael right beside me. We’d watched the signal fail — the screen lock, Will’s smirk — and now this. The alarm screamed on and on, but the doors stayed shut. No one ran. No one stumbled out.“They’re not coming,” Kael said, his voice tight. “They’re sealing it.”I watched as heavy steel bars slid across the main entrance from the inside, slow and deliberate. Guards stood at every exit, hands resting on their belts, calm, disciplined — not frantic, not scared. They were following orders. Exactly like Will trained them.“He knew,” I said, a cold knot tightening in my chest. “He expected this. Every move we make, he’s already
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 171: Screens That Flicker
Emily’s POV The chapel doors opened, and the whole room went quiet. Not the soft, reverent hush of a wedding day — but a heavy, expectant silence, like everyone was holding their breath, waiting to see what would break first. My heart beat so hard I could feel it in my throat, one heavy thud after another, matching the rhythm of my steps as I started down the aisle. Every eye was on me. Hundreds of faces — guests Will had invited, people from the hockey league, wealthy patrons from the gallery, strangers who’d come to watch the grand event of the season. None of them knew. Not one of them understood that this wasn’t a celebration. It was a transaction. And I was the final signature. My dress — soft ivory lace, delicate pearl buttons, the fabric flowing around my ankles like water — felt heavier than it should. Every step forward felt like a step further away from myself. Away from the girl who painted in her studio, who fell in love by accident, who got pregnant one quiet night and
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 170: Minutes on the Clock
Alex’s POVThe clock on the wall ticked so loud I could hear it over my own breathing. Every second stretched like a rubber band, thin and tight, ready to snap. Ten past six. Eleven. Twelve. Each one another breath closer to losing everything.“Alex, sit down. You’re making me nervous.”I didn’t sit. I couldn’t. I paced the length of the small room, back and forth, back and forth, my boots thudding against the floor like a second heartbeat. Kara was at the table, phones spread out in front of her, talking in low quick voices to people I’d never met, coordinating witnesses, lining up transport, making sure every single domino was in the right place before we pushed the first one over. Pierre sat beside her, hunched over his laptop, his face pale blue in the glow of three screens, fingers flying so fast they blurred.“It’s all set,” Kara said, covering the mouthpiece for a second. “Twelve witnesses confirmed. Journalists standing by. Police team on standby, twenty minutes out. Everythin
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 169: The Morning of the Lie
Emily’s POVI woke up before the sun even thought about rising. The room was still wrapped in that deep, quiet dark that feels like it belongs to no one but the ghosts. For a second, I didn't know where I was. My body ached in places I couldn't name—shoulders tight, chest heavy, a dull throb behind my eyes. Then memory crashed over me all at once, cold and sharp, and my eyes flew open.Right here. Right now. Trapped.I sat up slowly, careful not to make a sound. The air felt different this morning. Heavier. Tense, like a string pulled so tight it hummed. Something had shifted. I could feel it in my bones.Then I saw it. Hanging in the corner, bathed in the faint gray light seeping through the curtains. The dress.My breath caught. It was beautiful—soft ivory lace, delicate pearl buttons running all the way down the back, silk that shimmered even in the dark. It looked like something a dream would wear. But to me? It was a cage. Every stitch a lock. Every fold a chain. A prison made of
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 168: Unlikely Allies
Alex’s POV The knock came again — three quick, two slow — and my heart hammered so hard I could barely hear it over the blood rushing in my ears. I lowered the gun slowly, my fingers still tight around the grip, and backed toward the door. If this was a trap, it was a smart one. If it wasn’t… well, I was about to find out who Julian had trusted with the rest of our lives. “Alex? Are you in there?” Kara’s voice. Soft, shaky, but unmistakable. I exhaled a breath I felt like I’d been holding for days, my knees nearly giving out. I reached out, turned the lock, and pulled the door open. Kara stood there, her coat pulled tight around her, eyes wide and bright with fear. Beside her was Pierre — the gallery owner, the man who had discovered Emily, who had always been kind to her. He looked tired, older than I’d ever seen him, holding a folder against his chest like a shield. “Thank God,” Kara breathed, stepping inside before I could even speak, grabbing my good arm and looking me up an
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 167: The Signal
Emily’s POVThe second Alex vanished through that door and the sirens tore the night apart, the whole place turned into a madhouse. I stood frozen at my window, watching red and blue lights flash everywhere, hearing shouts boom down the halls, boots pounding up the stairs and slamming against doors. Guards ran past my room three, four, five at a time—guns in their hands, faces hard, eyes wild. The whole building locked down tight as a vault. And Julian was gone.I pressed my forehead against the cold glass, searching the darkness for any sign of them. Did he make it? Did they catch him? Is Julian still alive? Every second stretched like an hour. Every shadow looked like a threat.The door burst open behind me so hard it banged against the wall. I spun around, heart hammering so hard I thought it would give out. Will stood there, chest heaving, hair messy, his usually perfect suit wrinkled and askew. He looked wild—eyes wide, cheeks flushed, trembling all over with rage and fear.“Wher
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 4: Collision Course
Emily’s POVMy legs felt loose and heavy at the same time as I stumbled back toward the bar. The music pulsed louder in my ears, each beat slamming against my skull. Kara’s warning from moments ago still rang in my head, but I pushed it away. “Another one,” I told the bartender, slapping my hand
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 3: The Dangerous Request
Emily’s POVMy body moved on its own, hips swaying harder than I ever had before, arms raised like I could push the pain out through my fingertips. The bass thumped inside my chest, matching the angry beat of my pulse. Sweat clung to my skin. The black dress rode up my thighs with every sharp turn
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 2: Girls’ Night Gone Wrong
Emily’s POVI stared at myself in the mirror and barely recognized the girl looking back.The tight black dress Kara lent me hugged every curve, short enough to make me tug at the hem nervously. My eyes were still puffy from crying, but I’d managed to cover most of the redness with makeup. Lip glo
Accidentally Yours, Hockey Captain Chapter 1: The Kiss That Broke Everything
Emily’s POVMy laughter died the second I pushed open the café door.There he was, Lucas, my boyfriend of thirteen months with another girl on his lap, kissing her like he was starving.His hands gripped her waist exactly the way they used to grip mine. Her long chestnut hair spilled over his shoul
