Mrs. Davis stared at me with strict eyes, but I forced my heart rate to slow down. I did not panic because I knew I had the facts on my side. I unzipped my backpack and pulled out my official printed schedule to show her the truth.

"Mrs. Davis, I understand the digital system shows a different time," I said, and I handed her the paper. "But the department issued this document to me last week. It has the official administrative stamp right here at the bottom, and my shift starts at noon."

    My laughter was cold, and it held a truly liberated sound. I finally realized my father was nothing more than a pathetic man who used his checkbook to hide his own massive failures.He was a lonely old man sitting in a silent corporate tower, and he had no real friends to share his life with. He only had his money, and he used it to terrorize his own children because he did not know how to love us."Why are you laughing?" Richard demanded, and his smug tone vanished in a single second. "I just stole your perfect home away from you, and you are going to live in that broken student dorm for the rest of the year.""I am laughing because you are acting like a spoiled child," I told him, and I squeezed Axel's hand to comfort him. "You lost your control over my trust fund, and you lost your legal rights to my brother.""You failed to revoke Axel's nursing scholarship, and you failed to ruin my hockey career with your paid players," I continued. "You have no real power left, so you resorted

    I stood inside the small leasing office, and I stared at the nervous landlord sitting behind the wooden desk. The older man looked down at the silver keys in his shaking hands, and he refused to meet my eyes."What do you mean someone just bought the building?" Axel asked the landlord, and his voice trembled with sudden fear. "We just finished touring the empty apartment upstairs, and you told us it was available to rent.""I received a phone call while you were walking around the third floor, and the buyer wired the funds a few minutes ago," the landlord explained with a weak apology. "The new owner purchased the entire property with cash, and he ordered me to cancel all pending rental applications today."Axel turned his head to look at me, and his dark eyes showed a deep sense of panic. He thought we lost our dream home, and he thought we were back at square one with our living situation.He worked very hard to convince himself we deserved a nice place, and he looked absolutely hea

    He sat down very close to my side, and he stretched his long legs out in front of him. I rested my head against his strong shoulder, and I reached my hand out to hold his fingers."We can put our new bed right against that far wall," Michael suggested, and he pointed his free hand across the room. "We will wake up with the morning sun, and we will have a great view of the city skyline.""I want to buy a very soft rug for this floor so our feet do not get cold in the winter," I added to his plan. "We can also put a small reading chair in that corner near the window so I can study for my nursing exams."We sat on the floor together, and we shared a very sweet and peaceful moment away from the chaotic world. We did not have to worry about lawyers or angry billionaires anymore, because we won the brutal war.I looked around the sunlit room, and a profound sense of hope filled my chest. I felt we finally had a real future together, and I knew we were going to be very happy in this new home

    We woke up early the next morning because we wanted to call the phone number on the red rental sign. Michael dialed the landlord on his cell phone, and he arranged a private tour of the apartment building for us.We left Gabriel asleep in his bed so he could get some extra rest before his morning classes started. We walked across the quiet campus together, and the bright morning sun warmed my face during our short trip.The streets were very calm at this early hour, and we did not see any reporters hiding near the sidewalks. We crossed the main road, and we stopped right in front of the beautiful brick building we saw last night."This place looks even better in the daylight," Michael said, and he pointed at the large glass windows. "The metal security gate is very tall, so my father's men will never be able to bother us here.""I really love the private courtyard behind the fence," I agreed, and I admired the green grass near the front entrance. "Gabriel can sit outside and read his

    We walked into the living room, and we found Gabriel sitting on the ruined sofa with Carter and Miller. They were watching a sports channel on the television, but they muted the volume when we entered the room."Put your shoes on, Gabe," Michael announced with a bright smile. "Your final court papers cleared today, so you are legally safe from Richard."Gabriel gasped loud, and he jumped up from the couch to hug his older brother. Carter and Miller clapped their hands, and they offered loud cheers to congratulate the young teenager on his new life."Does this mean I never have to see those security guards again?" Gabriel asked, and he looked up at Michael with hopeful eyes. "Will they stop coming to the dorm room?""You will never see them again," Michael promised him, and he ruffled Gabriel's dark hair. "We are going to a fancy restaurant to celebrate your freedom, and I am paying the bill tonight."We left the broken dorm room behind us, and we walked across the campus to reach the

  • DANGEROUS ICE: MY HOCKEY NEMESIS IS MY SINFUL OBSESSION   CHAPTER 108 ~ RULING

    I looked down at Michael kneeling on the soft carpet, and my heart broke when I saw the single tear fall down his face. He looked very vulnerable right now, and he dropped all of his stubborn pride just to make sure I was safe.He was the strongest man I knew, yet he begged me to accept his financial help because he loved me. I realized my own pride was hurting both of us, and I was pushing him away for no good reason.Accepting his help was not a sign of weakness, and taking his money did not make me a dependent child. It meant we were equal partners in this relationship, and partners always share their heavy burdens with each other."You do not have to beg me," I whispered softly, and I reached my hands down to cup his warm face. "I will let you pay the tuition bill, and I will let you take care of me."Michael let out a huge breath of air, and he leaned his forehead against my stomach. He wrapped his strong arms tighter around my waist, and he held me with so much gentle care.I sa

    Staring down at the expensive dark tuxedo resting securely on the granite kitchen counter, I let out a heavy, frustrated sigh because the intimidating message delivered through my roommate completely confirmed my absolute worst fears. Michael was no longer the vulnerable, feverish man I had careful

    Bright morning light filtered through the heavy blackout curtains, hitting my face directly and forcing my tired eyes open. My neck ached terribly because I had spent the entire night slumped awkwardly against the hard back of the wooden chair, and my long legs felt completely stiff from a severe l

    The frantic grip on my wrist was surprisingly strong for someone suffering from a severe viral infection, and his terrified words completely paralyzed me in the wooden chair. He was openly begging an unseen person to keep his father away from his younger brother, and the sheer desperation in his ra

    Pulling my wrist out of his weak grasp immediately, I took a deliberate step backward and crossed my arms over my chest to establish a firm physical boundary between us. His genuine question hung heavily in the warm air of the master bedroom, and I absolutely refused to admit that my chest had tigh
