Captivating The Hockey Star's Heart Chapter 31
~ Sarah's POV ~ "See you after school, Nanny!" Seth chirped, throwing his small arms tightly around my waist. "I'll be waiting right here for you," I smiled, leaning down to return his hug. He pulled back, his gray eyes searching my face with genuine concern. "You still won't tell me where you went last night? I was so worried about you." My heart softened, and I gently stroked his hair. "I just had an urgent errand to take care of, sweetie. But I promise I won't leave you alone like that again. Just... don't tell your mom about it, okay?" "Of course I won't," Seth replied, his small shoulders slumping. "Even if I wanted to tell her, it's not like I ever see her anyway." A pang of sympathy shot through my chest. Remembering that Mrs. Callahan had just walked out the door for a week-long corporate trip to London, I felt deeply sorry for him. Before my mom abandoned my bedridden father to chase a rich lifestyle in Australia, she used to take care of me. I remembered
Captivating The Hockey Star's Heart Chapter 30
~ Sarah's POV ~ My heart thundered against my ribs as Mrs. Callahan fixed me with a gaze so cold I felt like I had just committed a crime. I hadn't expected her to be home at all—not after she had told me she would be spending the night at their corporate headquarters and instructed me to take care of her son. "Mom," Saxton said quickly, forcing a casual smile as he walked toward his mom. "I thought you were staying at the office?" "I was," she replied smoothly, her icy eyes refusing to leave my face. "I came back at dawn... but that doesn't answer my question, Vance. Where are the two of you coming from, and why is she wearing your hoodie? Didn't you both sleep in your rooms last night?" I swallowed hard, staring at both mom and son. "We did, Mom," Saxton lied without missing a beat. "I just got up early because... well, because I asked Denise to help me time my sprint speeds outside." Mrs. Callahan's brow furrowed, completely unconvinced. "At five in the morning? Aft

~ Saxton's POV ~ "You're afraid of thunder?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at her. "What? No. I'm not," she claimed instantly, yanking her arms back from my waist as if she'd just touched hot iron. "Then why did you scream like that?" I pressed. "How about you mind your own business?" She rolled her eyes, crossing her arms defensively. "Fine then. I'll mind my business," I said. I deliberately turned on my heel and walked away, leaving her under the rain. "Hey! Saxton!" she shrieked. She sprinted to duck under the umbrella beside me, instantly glaring up at my face. "What?" I sneered. "I thought you said you didn't want to share an umbrella with me." "Weren't you the one who dragged me out of the aquatic center in the first place?" She rolled her eyes bitterly, water dripping from the frame of her glasses. "It's entirely your fault we're trapped here!" "Just shut up and walk," I grunted. "I never planned on talking to you anyway," she shot back, snappin
Captivating The Hockey Star's Heart Chapter 28
~ Saxton's POV ~ Dammit! Did I really just say all of that out loud to her? I hadn't gone out searching for her because I was actually worried. I only did it because I had to. At the end of the day, if something happened to her, the blame would fall squarely on my shoulders—all because I had sent her to hunt for a necklace that wasn't even missing in the first place. She better not get any ridiculous ideas in her head. Even if she were the very last girl on earth, I wouldn't kiss her to save my life. She was the entire reason my bastard father had a reason to insult the Rhodes family today. I was never going to forgive her for that. The rain was still slamming against the windows with violent force, but thankfully, the university's power grid hadn't cut out. I picked up the umbrella I had left in the corner of the swim team's locker room, which I had grabbed when I first rushed down to the hockey building. Leaving the aquatic facility, I made my way through the walkway
Captivating The Hockey Star's Heart Chapter 27
~ Sarah's POV ~ I sat on the cold tiles of the pool deck, resting my head against my knees. My entire body was soaked through from spending hours diving beneath the pool to search for Saxton’s missing necklace. Water dripped from my hair, and an uncontrollable shiver racked my shoulders. Outside, the rain pounded against the glass roof with relentless force. But the freezing cold wasn't what was destroying me right now. The absolute worst, most humiliating part of this whole night was that I had broken down in front of Saxton. I had sworn to myself that I would never, ever let him see me cry. And yet, he had seen every single tear. I wished with everything inside me that I had held it together. But I was human. I was breaking down on the inside, weighed down by the fear of losing my scholarship and my job. I had gone completely out of my way to search for his necklace in the pool simply because he had sounded furious earlier and I couldn't risk him telling on me. I
Captivating The Hockey Star's Heart Chapter 26
~ Saxton's POV ~ I stood by the floor-to-ceiling glass, watching the torrential rain slam against my bedroom window with violent force. Thunder rumbled across the sky, shaking the glass panes. My mother had texted earlier saying she wouldn't be back until tomorrow morning. It wasn't anything new. She spent nearly every waking hour at the corporate headquarters, so we barely saw each other. She was a brilliant, hardworking woman who poured her life into my father's business, but he never appreciated her effort. To him, the company was the Callahan legacy... a family name I loathed. I wasn't a Callahan. I never grew up as one. The moment I graduated, I was going to prove to that bastard that a Rhodes was more than capable of dominating the NHL. "Vance?" A small knock sounded at my door. I quickly turned away from the window and opened it to find Seth standing in the hallway, clutching his stuffed bear to his chest. "Vance!" he cried, burying his face directly into my waist
