Vine

I scrambled into the first dark space I could find. It was a narrow closet that reeked of dust, but then again....it was literally the only hiding place I could find.

I held my breath until my lungs felt like they were going to pop any minute from now. My heart was a drum against my ribs, anxiety washing over me.

"What was that?" Jaxon asked the question that was probably on everybody else's mind .

I heard footsteps shuffling on the floor outside. I squeezed my eyes shut and prayed the d

  • Alpha Hockey Star's Forbidden Obsession    CHAPTER 141 — I Wish I Cared

    POV: VINE"I’m done looking at you," I said over my shoulder.I walked out of the room, my heartbeat slowing for the first time in months. With every step toward the exit, I felt the mansion—the weight of his expectations, the phantom touch of his hands, the fake charm of his voice—peeling away from my skin.By the time I reached the front gate, the air felt different. It was cold, but it was my air. I was walking out of the crypt.The sound of tires screeching against gravel cut through the evening. A sleek, high-end coupe pulled to a violent stop, blocking the pedestrian gate. The window rolled down.Rose Cartella.She was smoking a cigarette, her hair pulled back into a sharp ponytail. She leaned out, a grin spreading across her face that didn't reach her eyes."So," she said, tapping ash onto the driveway. "The rat finally ran away? Perfect."I stopped, my hands curling into fists at my sides. "Get out of my way, Rose."She laughed, a sharp sound. "Oh, I’ll get out of your way. I

  • Alpha Hockey Star's Forbidden Obsession    CHAPTER 140 — Want To See The World Burn

    POV: VINEThe coffee shop on the edge of Stone Hill Valley was an ironic choice. It was where I used to go to hide from the Vipers, and now, it felt like the only place where I could breathe without the gross, suffocating scent of wolf musk filling my lungs.I watched Drew walk through the entrance, and I felt nothing. No fear. No lingering trauma. He wasn't the monster I remembered; he was just a guy in a hoodie, looking as tired as I felt. After I had sent that email to the dean’s office—demanding they pull me from the disciplinary review so I wouldn't have to look at him or speak his name—I had assumed he’d been scrubbed from my life.Apparently, he had been busy.He didn't bother with small talk. He didn't ask how I was or offer an apology. He simply slid a thick, manila envelope across the table. It was heavy, the edges worn from use."You should look at this, Vine," he said, his voice flat. "Not because I’m trying to win you back or play games. But because I know what it’s like

  • Alpha Hockey Star's Forbidden Obsession    CHAPTER 139 — Cheers To Our Misery

    POV: ACEFucking hell.I sat in the back of the car, my hands clenched so tightly around the leather upholstery that I could hear the stitching snapping under the pressure. Every nerve ending in my body felt like it was being flayed alive. I had done it—I had played the part of the obedient, heartless Callahan heir—but the cost was a gaping, festering wound in my chest that no amount of wealth or bloodline power could ever heal.I felt absolutely terrible. Nauseous.But I had no choice. I had watched Rose stumble, watched her fake that pathetic little tear, and I knew exactly what my father would have done if I had shown even a flicker of empathy toward Vine in that dining room. The wrath he would have rained down on her wouldn't have been a simple verbal lash; it would have been permanent. I had to step up. I had to perform.And yet, seeing the way Vine’s expression had crumpled—that brief, devastating second where the light in her eyes had completely extinguished—felt worse than a

  • Alpha Hockey Star's Forbidden Obsession    CHAPTER 138 — Hey, Stranger

    POV: VINEThe silence that followed Ace's question was deafening. I…. I couldn't believe he'd just told me that. Ha… who would've thought?The entire restaurant seemed to grind to a halt, the clinking of silverware and the murmur of polite conversation vanishing into a vacuum. He was still kneeling there, his hands protectively cupped around Rose’s apparently bloodied palm, his gaze fixed on my face with a terrifying, hollow intensity."I said, what is wrong with you?" Ace repeated, his voice dropping into a low, jagged rasp. "Apologize to her. Now."There was no way in nine hells….. fuck. Stupid me didn't even have a name for what I was feeling. It was an insane combination of heartbreak, disbelief, and a rage so sharp it felt like it was carving me open from the inside. I looked at the way he was staring at me—like I was nothing more than a stain on his perfectly curated night—and I let out a laugh. It was a jagged, bitter sound that shocked even me.Back to the bad old times, w

  • Alpha Hockey Star's Forbidden Obsession    CHAPTER 137 — Her Over Me

    POV: VINEThe lobby of the social club was a nightmare of marble and polished brass, but nothing was as hard or as cold as the look Ace didn't give me.He didn't say a damn word in reply to Bluey’s jab about the captaincy. He just stood there, his jaw locked into a rigid line of steel, and then he did the one thing I didn't think he was capable of. He reached out and hauled Rose toward him by the waist, his hand sliding over the exposed skin of her back with a sickeningly possessive possessiveness."Sorry, babe," Ace said, his voice dropping into this smooth, calm, boyfriend-like register that felt like a serrated knife dragging across my nerves. "Can't stop him from being a man-child. I'm sure you're hungry. Let's get in, yeah?"I stood there like a statue, my throat tight as I swallowed the lump of bile rising there. I stepped aside, giving them a wide berth, and as they walked past me, I held my breath, waiting for the flicker of recognition. A glance. A glare. Anything.He didn't

  • Alpha Hockey Star's Forbidden Obsession    CHAPTER 136 — How Does It Feel To Not Be Captain

    POV: ACE"I don't know, Jaxon," I said, my voice sounding hollow even to my own ears. I stared at him, the weight of the last twenty-four hours pressing down on my shoulders like a physical mountain. "I don't have the fucking answers. When I did have the answers, when I knew exactly what to do to protect the people around me, you didn't take my advice. You chose this path, and now the consequences are written in your own blood."Jaxon was vibrating with fear, his knuckles white as he gripped the edge of the squat rack. "But it's Clyde. How am I supposed to just... walk away from her? How am I supposed to tell her that I’m actually bound to her sister by a triple bond that’s slowly killing us both? She’s going to think I’m a monster.""Right now, there is only one path that keeps you both breathing," I said, my tone flat and stripped of any sympathy. It was the survival of the pack, the cold logic my father had hammered into me since I was a pup. "End what hasn't even started with Clyd

    POV: ACEThe ice was going to be a bloodbath in forty-eight hours, but for the first time all week, my head didn't feel like it was about to explode.The match was in two days. Surprisingly, my small "encounter" with Vine a couple nights ago seemed to completely calm the fire of the rut down. The a

    POV: VINEThe first thing I felt when consciousness dragged me back was the heavy, suffocating weight pinning my chest and legs to the mattress, paired with a tingling numbness and dull ache throughout my lower body that I couldn't quite name. I blinked against the harsh morning light filtering th

    POV: ACEThe team was still banging their sticks and cheering, filling the arena with loud, annoying noise, but I wasn't in the mood for their crap.I pulled Rose off me by her arms, squeezing hard enough to make her wince, and dragged her away from everyone, pulling her into the dark equipment tun

    POV: VINEWe were still frozen in that tiny library spot. The air was so thick it felt like trying to breathe underwater. Ace’s hands were hard on my jaw, his thumb dragging across my bottom lip like he owned the space I was in."What the hell is wrong with you?" he muttered, his voice low and grav
