Beneath The Ice : Claimed By My Stepbrother Kissed Benito
Theo~The thing about Benito was that he never seemed to run out of energy. I genuinely did not know how it was possible. The guy trained like a maniac, dominated most of the drills, and still had enough left afterward to drag people out for food like he had not just spent three hours getting slammed into the boards.Meanwhile I felt one bad practice away from collapsing face-first onto the ice.“You’re buying,” Benito said as he walked backward toward the restaurant entrance.I looked up from my phone. “What?”“You’re buying.”“Why?”“Because I’m pretty.”I stared at him. “That is not how money works.”“It should be.”He pushed the door open with a grin. I followed him inside mostly because arguing with Benito was pointless. It was like arguing with a tornado. The tornado would do whatever it wanted anyway.The restaurant was busy and noisy. We had to wait a few minutes for a table. Benito spent that time talking to random people. He did not know any of them, but that did not stop hi
Beneath The Ice : Claimed By My Stepbrother Moving On
Noah~The strange thing about trying to move on was that nobody ever warned you how boring it felt. Movies made it look dramatic and full of big moments. Books made it sound deep and meaningful. In reality, it was mostly about staring at your phone and forcing yourself not to do anything stupid and who was I fucking kidding with the Shakespeare shit, I was a miserable fucker.That was exactly what I had been doing for the last four days.Four long days of staying strong. No stalking Theo’s streams. No checking his schedule. No driving past the places he used to go. No searching his name online. Nothing at all. I deserved some kind of medal for it. Instead, all I got was this weird empty feeling that followed me around everywhere I went.Practice ended around noon. Normally I would have pulled out my phone right there in the locker room and started checking hockey updates. This time I shoved it deep into my bag and walked out with the rest of the team toward the parking lot.“Well, loo
Beneath The Ice : Claimed By My Stepbrother Before Theodore
POV: NoahThe problem with Nikolai was that he treated every decision like it had already been made. It didn’t matter what you wanted or what excuses you offered. Once he decided something was happening, your opinion became nothing more than background noise. That was exactly why I wasn’t surprised when he showed up outside the arena after practice and stole my car keys without warning.“What the hell?” I snapped.Nikolai pocketed them smoothly. “We’re going out.”I stared at him. “No.”“Yes.”“I just finished practice.”“Congratulations.”“I’m tired.”“I don’t care.”I rubbed a hand over my face, exhausted. “You’re unbelievable.”“I know.” The annoying part was how pleased he looked about it.A few teammates walked past and immediately turned around when they saw Nikolai. Smart move. No one willingly got involved when he was in one of these moods. I held out my hand. “Give me my keys.”“No.”“Nikolai.”“Noah.”I sighed. This was pointless. The guy was built like a tank and twice as s
Beneath The Ice : Claimed By My Stepbrother THE UNEXPECTED CONFESSION
Theo~The problem with Benito was that he never knew when to stop pushing. Most people would notice when they were making someone uncomfortable and back off right away. Benito noticed it and immediately decided to push even harder. That was exactly why agreeing to lunch with him after practice had been a huge mistake.Training had ended about an hour earlier. Most of the team had already scattered across campus, heading back to their rooms or grabbing quick rides. But Benito had somehow talked me into staying behind at the small diner near the arena. Now we sat across from each other in a worn booth near the window. I stirred a chocolate milkshake I had no real interest in drinking while he watched me with that familiar, dangerous grin, the kind that always meant trouble.I pointed my spoon at him. “Whatever you’re thinking right now, don’t.”His grin only grew wider. “Oh, it’s definitely about Noah then.”I nearly dropped the spoon into the glass. “Jesus Christ, Benito.”“What? I’m j
Beneath The Ice : Claimed By My Stepbrother Stupid Feelings
NoahThe weird thing about bad habits is that you never fully understand how much space they’ve taken up in your life until you try to break them. For weeks I had built entire routines around Theo without ever admitting that was exactly what I was doing. I would wake up, check the team updates, scroll through social media, look at training schedules, and search for anything that might mention him, then repeat the whole process later in the day. It had become completely automatic, a reflex I performed without thinking. Then Nikolai found out, and that conversation had been humiliating enough on its own. After that came my mother, followed by several days of hearing the same advice from people who apparently knew me better than I knew myself. Stop checking. Stop watching. Stop chasing. Leave him alone. So eventually I tried.The first day felt strange. The second felt worse. By the end of the week I was beginning to understand something I hadn’t expected. The constant checking had neve
Beneath The Ice : Claimed By My Stepbrother Too Loud
TheoThe restaurant was loud enough that nobody could hear themselves think, which was probably exactly why hockey players liked places like this. The food wasn’t anything special, the tables were too small, and the music blasted at a volume that made conversation feel like shouting. Half the televisions on the walls showed different games at the same time, creating a constant wall of noise and movement. It was perfect in its own chaotic way.Training had ended an hour earlier, and somehow nearly the entire Super Team had ended up here together. I sat near the middle of the long table, working my way through a burger while trying to follow three different conversations happening at once. Across from me, two defensemen argued heatedly about team rankings. At the far end, someone was trying to convince everyone that pineapple belonged on pizza, and that argument nearly turned physical. Beside me, Benito looked entirely too happy to be alive, which should have worried me because when Ben
