Chapter 54: An Unexpected Surprise

last update Last Updated: 2025-09-25 00:58:01

I’ve just spent more than two hours digging for answers to my burning questions. Yet nothing. I can’t accept what my therapist said about it all being “just the pregnancy.” He doesn’t understand. I wish I could make him feel what I feel.

Every search drags me in circles, pointing to things that don’t match. It’s like I’m the only person on earth who has ever gone through this. Like no one has ever even heard of it. I swear I’m not crazy. I’m not. But I don’t know how to convince myself I’m not losing my mind.

“Hello, Lucy.”

The man’s voice startles me.

“Oh, I’m sorry—I didn’t mean to disturb you,” he says quickly. “I’ve been knocking for a while.”

“Peter.” I force a smile, pushing up from my chair. “How are you? Please, come in.”

“Thank you.” He smiles back as he steps inside. “You opened the garden early today.”

“Oh… yeah.” I nod, brushing a strand of hair from my face. “Do you need anything?”

He doesn’t say anything at first. He just stares at me with that look of admiration, and ho

  • Fake Dating My Hockey Alpha    Chapter 56: Breath of the Moon

    ~Rhett~I didn’t wake up on the right side of the bed this morning.I can’t explain it. Maybe it’s the damn curse. But I woke up with a weight in my chest, a gnawing certainty that something bad was going to happen today. It feels as if someone dear to me is in danger. My body hums with anxiety for no clear reason.“Rhett, come on.” My coach taps my shoulder, jolting me out of my thoughts. “What’s going on with you? Are you okay?”“Yes.” I jump to my feet too quickly. “I’m perfectly fine.”“You don’t look fine. You’ve been off all morning.” He gives me his usual flat smile. “And the way you played earlier… not exactly Rhett Lawson.”I know. Everyone’s been saying that. The past few months have been hell on ice. I don’t know how to tell them I’ve lost interest in everything, that my body won’t move the way it used to. Today is worse. I didn’t even want to leave the house. But this game is too important to skip, so I dragged myself here and tried to play.“Rhett, do you need a break?” h

  • Fake Dating My Hockey Alpha    Chapter 55: Between Life & Loss

    My heart thuds wildly. Freya’s scream breaks the silence.“Shut up!” One of them steps closer, gun raised. “If you make any noise, I’ll shoot you!”We cling to each other, sobbing under our breaths.“Now be a good girl and bring out all your money!” His voice is hot with anger. “Do not waste my time!” He roars, and the sound makes us jolt apart.I’m shaking. Of all the things that could happen today, armed men in my garden wasn’t one of them. Our joy has been poisoned. I’m scared for myself, terrified for my best friend, and for the first time I feel the weight of my baby’s life inside me. Whatever happens, nothing must happen to him.“Move it, Lucy!” the man screams again, and I freeze. He called me by my name. My stomach twists. He knows me. This isn’t random. This was planned.“Boss, let me put a hole in that big bump of hers!” one hisses and my whole body goes cold. My fingers tremble as I unlock the register.“No… no, please,” Freya sobs. “She’s giving you everything. Please don’

    ~Lucy~“Would you look at that,” the blonde man leans to his friend, eyes flicking toward me.His friend follows his gaze, lips curling. “Imagine smashing her with that heavy pregnancy.”“God, I’m so turned on,” the blonde licks his lips. “I’ve never seen a pregnant woman so hot. I want to lick her skin right now.”I don’t look at them. I can see them well enough from the corner of my eye. They’re only a few feet away, whispering filth as if their words vanish in the air. I wonder why people have to be so disrespectful. I am carrying life inside me, yet these men see me as nothing more than a body to devour.“Daddy!” A little girl runs to them clutching a children’s book. “I found it, Daddy!”Oh, perfect. What a jerk.“Honey, go show it to your mommy, okay? Daddy’s coming.”“Okay!” she beams and trots off.I sigh and pull an age-gap romance novel from the shelf. Not my type of story, I don’t even read romance, but lately I’ve been desperate for anything that will distract me from my t

  • Fake Dating My Hockey Alpha    Chapter 52: The Blood Trail

    “Rhett, what have you done?”“What do you mean?” I hiss, bristling at his tone. “Was I supposed to accept that Lucy is pregnant with my child? I'm pretty sure you know it was just a trick; trying to get me with that claim.”“I know it isn’t possible for Lucy to carry your child, but Rhett…” Khair exhales, heavy and troubled. “Lucy gives me strength. Her presence alone fills me. There’s something about her, I can’t explain it, but she makes living with this curse bearable.”“I know,” I admit, voice low.“Things changed when she came into your life. And they got worse when she left. Without her, it feels like we cannot live.”“That’s enough.” My voice is rough, fighting to cover the dread pressing in on me. “The only reason we feel that way is because we got attached. That was my mistake. Give it time, you’ll forget her.”“Stop fighting it,” Khair growls. “You need her. We need her. Bring Lucy back.”“I will not do that!” I snap. “I’m not fighting anything, I’m protecting Lucy!”“From w

    “Rhett,” Khair’s voice jolts me awake. I spring out of bed, worry and relief covering me.“Khair, what happened? Why did you go silent on me like that?” My voice trembles with worry.“I don’t know, Rhett,” Khair answers, his tone frayed. “It just happened. I didn’t do it this time.”“Tell me how you feel. What’s going on inside you? I don’t understand how but I'm blocked from you.”He exhales, weary. “I feel weak. Weaker than before. Like I’m slipping away.”“No… no, that can’t be.” My hands curl into fists as I pace the room, anger rising in my chest. “This cannot be happening now.”“I can’t shake the feeling that someone is behind this,” Khair snaps. “This isn’t some curse. This is deliberate.”My brows knit. “What do you mean?”“Think, Rhett. That raven—it was a message. Someone sent it. If we can uncover what it means, it might lead us to the enemy.” My eyes widen as realization hit me. “Khair… you’re right. The prophecy… it’s real. It means—”“It means the enemy is near. It mean
