Faking It With Hockey Alpha Chapter 118: Judge Your Father
Roland.I carried Lila through the concrete corridors of the stadium and kicked the infirmary door open with my boot. The torn stitches in my side burned with every step and fresh blood soaked the waistband of my uniform, but I ignored the pain and laid the thrashing teenager onto the nearest examination cot.“Step back and give me room,” Nora ordered.The human paramedic snapped on a pair of latex gloves and pushed past me to check Lila's dilated pupils. She moved with a calm that settled the frantic energy in the room, grabbing a penlight and a blood pressure cuff from a metal tray.“She is burning up,” Kai pointed out. He hovered near the head of the bed, reaching for Lila's trembling shoulder. “Her skin feels like a furnace, Nora.”“I do not need an enforcer crowding my workspace,” Nora snapped. She swatted Kai's hand away without looking up from her patient. “Go stand against the wall, Kai. Let me count her breaths and get an IV started before she seizes.”“Will fluids actually h
Faking It With Hockey Alpha Chapter 117: The Longest Night
Aurora's POV I watched the arena's joy curdle around me as the elder Alpha's words settled over the ice. Sixty thousand fans continued screaming for the championship goal, waving their foam fingers and banging against the glass, while the VIP tier stood in a silent, ancient wall of disapproval.The man holding the microphone lowered it, his scarred face unreadable under the bright stadium lights. His name was Garrick Thorne. I knew his reputation from the files we had recovered, recognizing him as the architect of the old laws that kept the packs segregated and afraid. He stated the Conclave's law without raising his voice, yet the sound carried a sharp edge that bypassed the cheering and reached us clearly.“No Alpha King assumes the throne without completing the three Trials of Succession,” Garrick declared, resting his hands on the railing of the luxury box. “These trials must be finished before the winter solstice, the longest night of the year.”Garrick paused, scanning the ice
Faking It With Hockey Alpha Chapter 116: The Final Buzzer
Roland.I skated toward the center circle with the silver still burning a jagged line across my ribs. Every breath felt like a knife dragging against my lungs, forcing me to clench my jaw to hide the grimace. I planted my skates on the rubber mats near the faceoff dot. The entire stadium rose to its feet in a deafening, unified roar. Sixty thousand people had just watched me die on this exact spot minutes ago. Now, they watched me return to finish the period.“I am right here, Roland,” Aurora promised through our bond. Her voice wrapped around my mind, steady and warm, pushing back the lingering cold of the silver. “I will carry whatever you cannot carry yourself. Just lean on me.”“Keep my heart beating for eleven seconds,” I answered over the private link, adjusting my grip on the composite stick. “That is all I need.”Jackson lined up on my left, tapping his blade against the ice with frantic energy. “Let's win a hockey game before you bleed out, Vance. I am not carrying your gian
Faking It With Hockey Alpha Chapter 115: Eleven Seconds
Aurora.I lunged forward and caught Adrian before his head struck the ice. My bare hands slipped against the dark fabric of his coat, coming away slick with warm blood that wasn't mine. It stained my skin red as his weight dragged us both onto the frozen surface.Roland dropped to his knees beside me so quickly that his own wound tore open again. He winced, pressing his forearm against his ribs as he fought through the sudden agony to reach his dying father.“We have you,” Roland promised, gripping Adrian's shoulder to keep him steady.A few yards away, Gideon and three Wolves tackled Magnus, dragging the disgraced Alpha onto the rink and pinning his arms behind his back.Through the stadium speakers, the magistrates declared the Council's seat vacant. Their voices echoed across the massive arena, but I barely registered the administrative announcement.Adrian was looking at me instead of his son. His pale face carried a faint, terrible humility I never expected to see in a man who ha
Faking It With Hockey Alpha Chapter 114: The Gold Thread
Roland.I drifted in a dark space devoid of ice and pain. A single thin gold thread pulled at the center of my chest, tethering me to something solid and somewhere very far away a voice I would recognize in any darkness repeated my name like a prayer. I hovered above the rink and looked down at my own body lying silver-gray and still on the frozen surface. Aurora knelt beside me with her glowing hands pressed against my ribs, pouring ancient light into my failing veins. I understood with a strange, settling calm that I stood at the final edge. I could let go right now and the burning agony in my side would end forever.Then the gold thread tightened.The quiet dark shifted, replacing the silence with the memory of the first time she shoved me back against the shelves in a dusty equipment room and called me a lunatic. I heard the clear, ringing sound of her laugh bouncing off the walls of my mother’s sitting room and I saw her walking toward me in that stunning red dress, commanding
Faking It With Hockey Alpha Chapter 113: The Door Between Them
Aurora.The first thing I felt was Roland’s pain tearing through my chest as if the silver blade were buried in my own ribs. I clutched my side and tried to scream his name, but my throat produced no sound.A woman stepped out of the ambient light. She walked barefoot across the nothingness, her dark hair shifting around her shoulders. I recognized my mother’s face long before my mind found the word for it.Marguerite did not rush forward to embrace me. She stopped a few feet away, tilting her head as she studied me with a gentle sorrow that matched the ache in my own chest.“You feel him, don’t you?” Marguerite asked.“It hurts,” I gasped, clutching my ribs as I forced the words out. “Magnus stabbed him.”“The pain means the lock is breaking,” Marguerite explained, taking a slow step toward me
