Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved Chapter 130
Maxton's POV. “My hockey bag is getting heavier by the day,” Johnny quipped, sending my team into a chaos of loud laughter. “Maybe you should check it, I heard O'Neil is into rocks. He might have some of his rocks in your bag.” We all turned to stare at O'Neil, a member of our hockey team. He was always calm, calculative…and spiteful. Hence, the reason he was always a target of these jokes. He appeared lost in thought, but as he noticed that we all turned to face him, he raised his head up, curling his brow in curiosity. “What's wrong?” He asked. “We heard you're keeping rocks in Johnny's bag,” one of them echoed. They burst out laughing and Johnny shook his head, realizing that the guys had lost the context of his joke. Before O'Neil could bite back a reply, our coach walked in, a large whistle hanging on his neck. I sprung up quickly, my head raised high, and shoulders squared up as if we were in the military. “We have a match right up our noses and you think making jokes is

Talia's POV. I prayed heavily for a sudden discourse to occur between father and son, but Eris failed me. They were always at loggerhead but when I needed it the most, Maxton stood speechless, even pulling back as though tired of their countless arguments. “I'll wait for you in the car. We'll go to school together,” he said, proceeding to walk away.No, don't walk away like that, I thought to myself. Where was the growling? The Gala for goodness sake, couldn't Mr Carter bring it up? Anything at all to make me slip out without having to talk to him. As Maxton walked out of our sight, he took a step forward, feeling every vibration as he got closer. “How are you? Hope you're having a swell morning?” He asked. It took a while to nod at his question and it was brief. He slouched his shoulder and stared at his feet. “You are still mad at me for yesterday?” He uttered, his voice firm and deep. I looked away, smoothing my sleeves over and over. “I'm… I'm not,” I forced out a laugh. “

She pressed her lips together, looking away as I stared at her in disbelief. Her statement could only remind me of Mr Carter's threat earlier. I felt the cold chills run down my spine, the jitters sending me into a flux of goosebumps. “You are always so dramatic, Talia,” she suddenly sighed. “There is nothing about this event that will take away your dignity, you don't have to make me seem like the bad guy everytime,” “The bad guy,” I quoted, rolling my eyes. “You've given me the answer I needed to know. I've heard you, I won't disappoint you so can I be left alone,” I glanced at the door, gesturing it was time she left. “That's all I wanted to hear from you,” she cracked a smile, leaping into motion. “I can't believe you're so tone-deaf,” I whispered, though barely audible, but enough to grab her attention.“Pardon me,” she raised her eyebrows. I bit hard on my lips as I tried to stop myself from lashing at her. “I said, have a goodnight,” I lied, my chest heavy with raw emoti

Talia's POV. Deej went silent for a few seconds after I walked out on Maxton and my mother. The line was silent but Deej seemed to breathe heavily. Controlled. “Deej, come on talk to me. I just want to stuff my face into a pillow right now,” I shrugged. She sniffled through the phone and huffed. “Check Chris’ story,” “What? Don't tell me he leaked all our trashy conversation about our classmates,” I replied. “No, that's horrible,” she huffed. “I'd literally walk up to him for a death match if he ever does that,” “Okay, give me a minute,” I heaved. I moved my phone away from my ears, scrolling through my feed to check his story. “People never feel the same way for you like the way you do for them,” “There's always a third wheel in a two ride carriage,” There were other quotes in his story and reading them only made me feel like my insides were twisting and turning in the wrong direction. “Oh my goodness, Deej. This is…” “Heartbreaking? Yeah, I know that. I've messaged him

Maxton's POV. Her eyes narrowed at me, my breath hitching as she moved closer to me. “Maxton,” she called out. “What?” I replied after a brief pause. Her eyes squinted in silence as we stood inches away from each other, the air looming tense and thick. “You know what? It ain't my business, you have your life and I have mine, right?” She smiled, but we both knew it was fake. “Yeah, it's not even important,” I crumpled the paper in my hands, making sure it was three times smaller than its size. She left without insisting on seeing the paper and I heaved a sigh of relief. It would have been an uproar if she found out Bambi wrote that for me. Talia was always quiet, calm and kind, but seeing her fight with Bambi was a side I never thought she had. She was ruthless. And there was something lethal about her stare. It made me tingle. We got to my car and she fastened her seat belt, lolling her head against the window. The aftermath of her fight had begun to hit her. She was probabl

Maxton's POV. I knew I shouldn't have taken him seriously, he was only trying to cope with his problem but somehow, his words got to me. “Take them back.” I barked at him. “I know you are just saying this because you are in big trouble. Let's hope you get out of this alive… and well.” “Kid, I'm not trading words with you, but you should know that we all meet our end of the road sooner or later,” “Well, yours came sooner than you think,” “Still doesn't mean you are exempt.” He snickered. “You know what, Mr Williams.” I breathed heavily through my nose. “I know what you are trying to do. Try again, coz I'm clean, my sister's clean and my family too.” “I hope you are, dirty laundry tends to be hidden from plain sight” Those were his final words before walking out, his footsteps echoing like a lingering whisper. I stood straight, my head lost in a maze of thought. A cold chill ran down my spine. “Maxton Carter,” a teacher called out. “You ought to be in class right about now,” h
