Alexa and the Badboy 6.
Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER SIXAurora's POVI was trying not to look at him, but I believed that the word 'try' was just an understatement. It was taking everything in me not to turn around in this seat and openly glare at him. But it would only make me look like a fool. That morning, and even the day before, I’d made a promise to myself before I stepped through the gates of school. Don’t glance. Don’t wonder. Don’t care. Ignore him. He wasn’t the first boy to notice me. He wasn’t the first to get brave. And he certainly wouldn’t be the first to realize I wasn’t worth the effort.But Knox Blackwood wasn’t like the others, and that was the problem.He hadn’t flinched when I ignored him. Hadn’t sulked or thrown sharp glances across the room like some wounded ego looking for revenge.He didn’t try again. He just... existed. Silently, calmly, like everything under the sky was working out for him, unbothered by the fact that I was deliberately icing him out.And maybe that should’

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER FIVEAurora's POVThe whispers had started before first period.Not loud. Not obvious.Just that faint, buzzing current in the air that told me someone had said my name out loud, and someone else had listened.Word really got out fast around here. It was always like that. And after all these years, I’d become an expert at reading silences.They used to say it louder. Back then, when people still had the energy to hate me to my face. Now, it was all side glances. Shallow smiles. Pauses in the hallway that lasted a second too long.And today, I knew exactly why. Because he sat at my table.Knox Blackwood. The new boy. The one people had been whispering about before he ever showed up, because this boring school devoursed newness like it’s blood in the water. And he had caused quite the stir on campus. I hadn't stopped hearing about him since he arrived. And yesterday, he made a choice. One that I wasn't too pleased about. And it seemed I wasn't the onl

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER FOURKnox's POVThe bell had barely stopped ringing when I walked into the classroom. My first day at mom's old school, and it already felt like I’d stepped into a slower, dustier version of the world I used to know.Everything here moved differently. Quieter. Stiffer. Like the air was thicker or the rules were older.I muttered my name to the teacher and was pointed to the back of the class. No one really looked at me—, just the usual half-second glances students give when they’re bored and curious but don’t care enough to commit.And then I saw her.She was sitting near the window, her back straight, chin slightly tilted, like she didn’t even know there were other people in the room.Her.The same girl I’d seen yesterday from the car window. The one I thought maybe I’d imagined. Hair like ink in sunlight. Skin like cold marble. Eyes distant, almost bored, like she was tuned to a frequency the rest of us couldn’t hear.Aurora.The name came from the r

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER THREEKnox's POVMy legs were cramped in the backseat and my hoodie sleeves were shoved over my fists. My forehead rested against the cold window, like it would knock some sense into me.This car ride had been silent for the last twenty minutes, and honestly, I was grateful. The lectures had stopped yesterday after the “welcome” dinner at my grandparents’ house.The atmosphere had been lukewarm, a mild stew and tighter smiles. Even grandpa and grandma had been unsuccessful from cooling mom and dad's anger. But now, I think they were quite worn out. I even believed dad was tired of being mad. I closed my eyes and replayed the principal's words from last week like they’re a damn record on loop.“Knox, you’ve left us no choice.”Expelled. The words still tasted sour in my mouth. I deserved it,I know that. At least 70% of that was my fault. The other 30% was my defense. Anyway, none of that meant I wanted to be here, in some middle-of-nowhere town, far

Ice Queens Need Love TooCHAPTER TWOKnox's POV~7 days earlier~"Knox Sean Blackwood."As soon as I heard my mom's yell from downstairs, I sprang out from bed and set myself to rights. I was in deep trouble this time. But I was sure I could get an excuse to bail myself out. Mom didn't even bother knocking as she barged inside my bedroom, the fury on her face as clear as the su at the noon hour. Right behind her was my dad, who looked calm on the surface, but I knew otherwise. They were both angry, and I believed that maybe I was being a little too cocky on the bailing myself out of this part. I swallowed. Maybe I was in for some serious lashing this time. I had messed up real bad. Mom had been invited to receive an award for being one of the most influential women under the age of fifty to receive an award in LA, and naturally, dad had accompaniedaccompanied her. Having turned eighteen earlier this year, that hadn't worried about leaving the house. But of course, being the boy

Ice Queens Need Love Too CHAPTER ONE Aurora's POV There’s a specific kind of silence that followed me wherever I went, like people lowered their voices just to make their whispers sharper. And today was no different, just like everyday, since that disastrous day in the past. I, however, had grown used to this. I glided through the cafeteria like a ghost in my own school. My tray was nearly empty, just a bottle of water and an apple I wouldn't eat. I took my usual spot, a corner table, second from the left. No one ever sat here. No one ever tried or dared. Unless they wanted to be the next target of bullying from Kristy and the rest of the school. After all, everyone had United and singled me out. They had all made up their minds up about me. Aurora Hale. The Ice Queen. Too beautiful to approach. Too cold to love. Too smart to bother. And to selfish to consider other's feelings. I had heard it all. The cruel whispers behind my back, just within earshot, like they wa
