Talia's Pov

“Can we talk?” my mom asked the second she walked into my room.

I froze, looking up from the book I was reading. “…Now?”

“Now,” she said sweetly. Too sweet. The kind of sweet that usually meant someone was about to die and it might be me.

My mind started to panic. What did she want to talk about? Did Lydia tell her what she saw between Maxton and me earlier? No, she wouldn’t be this calm if that were the case.

It had been Lydia who caught Maxton and me in that compromising moment, and Maxton had sworn she wouldn’t tell our parents. So, for now, I had no choice but to believe him.

“It won’t take long, I promise,” she added.

I nodded slowly, heart thumping like I had drugs in my pocket and I had just been stopped by the cops. I sat across from her like a student about to get graded for breathing wrong.

She clasped her hands in her lap. “I just wanted to have a little mother-daughter moment.”

She tilted her head. “How are you coping here?”

“I am coping,” I lied.

    Talia's POV. “Steve please! You can't do this to me.” Emily begged, gaping at the camera pointed to her face. “Why can't I? Don't you want to show everyone that you are a dirty little slut? You liked it when I called you that,” Steve laughed obnoxiously. I almost turned off the video out of pure disgust. “No, Talia, you gotta keep watching,” she stopped me. “Please Steve,” Emily's voice echoed through the laptop. “Don't put out those videos of me. Please, I thought they were safe with you. You just had to watch it and…” “Delete it. Nah, I saved them on my laptop and if you don't do what I say, by tomorrow pictures of your cunt and boobs will flood our school's internet,” Steve cut in. “Hell!” I gasped with my mouth wide open. “What do you want me to do?” Emily asked after a long, teary pause. “Strip for the camera,” Steve's deep voice growled like a lion. I suddenly got flashbacks of what Zeke and Bambi tried to do to me. “He blackmailed Emily,” I shook my head, my jaws wide

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 103

    Talia's POV. Well, I stood frozen for almost a minute staring at the furious eyes gaping at me. “Well young lady, cat got your tongue? Speak up!” My mother continued, pointing a finger at me with a stern look. What was I supposed to say? That we were playing heroes? That we snuck into Steve's room to…“I… I went…” “Talia, this isn't good at all. You woke us up in the middle of the night,” Mr Carter said with displeasure. I woke them up? I must have been hallucinating, maybe I had split realities or something. “I'm sorry, did you say I woke you guys up? I went out for hours and…” “Have you forgotten you have us stored as your emergency contacts?” Maxton crossed his hands. “No, I haven't forgotten,” I replied, staring at him intently. “Where are you heading at, I don't understand,” “You dialled and we thought it was an emergency.” Maxton replied, glancing at my mother. “Everyone in your emergency list was given a call. My only question is, did you do this for some attention?”

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 102

    Talia's POV. We were all curious to know what just happened, but our priority was leaving without getting caught by Steve. “Did you drive here?” Steve asked. “I think I did,” Kyle replied. They gazed intensely at each other, then like a whistle in a marathon race, they sprinted out to watch what had just happened. “Quick, quick, now's our chance,” I tapped Deej on her shoulders repeatedly. We raced towards the entrance. Luckily, Kyle had also left the gate open and we quickly crept out as silently as possible. We ran to a safe distance, crouching on our knees to catch our breath. “Now, that was a rush. I feel… alive,” Deej, squeezed the flashdrive in her hands. “I feel powerful,” “I feel…” “Like my insides are literally on fire,” I cut in with a sheepish look. “Yeah, that too,”Deej went on and on about how she was feeling, but I narrowed my eyes forward, spotting Kyle and Steve conversing with a couple. A car had crashed into Kyle's car. “Deej, you are gonna want to see

    Talia's POV.Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! We had no time to race out and we had barely even watched any of the obscene videos he had on his computer. “Oh my God! Talia, what are we going to do? I think he's inside already,” Deej whispered, her brows wrinkling. “I don't know,” I replied. His knob twisted and I quickly ushered Deej into his closet. However, we could barely fit ourselves into it. “There's not enough room for both of us,” Deej mumbled, trying to walk out so I could go in. “No, stay there, I'll hide under the bed,” I whispered back. We both glanced at his bed and stared at each other. We were probably thinking the same thing, only God knew the heaps of trash that were beneath his bed. “Talia, I don't think…” “There's not enough time,” I pushed Deej inside the closet and rushed to take cover beneath his bed. “Ouch,” I cried as my head hit his frame, but I managed to slip in before his door clicked open. My hands felt something wet. Yeah, and his bed reeked of sweat, stale m

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 100

    TALIA'S POV“Shhh, be quiet,” Deej whispered when I accidentally knocked something over in the garden.It wasn’t super loud, but since it was so late and we were trying to sneak in without getting caught, it felt like a huge crash that made us freeze.“Sorry, sorry,” I whispered as Deej started picking the lock on the back door. At first, she struggled, groaning when it didn’t work, but after a few tries, it clicked, and we both whispered, “Yes!”We pushed the door open and stepped into Steve’s house, looking around carefully. The place was completely dark. “Here, put these on,” Deej said, handing me some goggles. I slipped them on and could suddenly see in the dark. They were night-vision goggles. I was curious where she got them, but I figured now wasn’t the time to ask.“I think this might be his room,” Deej said as soon as we got to a door. She twisted the knob, and luckily it opened. We stepped inside and looked around. It was a total mess; rough sheets, clothes all over the floo

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 99

    TALIA'S POV He raised his brow, looking confused like he was trying to process everything before saying, “What’s there about New York to talk about?”‎‎I was stupid, really stupid, no doubt about that. I didn’t want to talk about New York. Honestly, I had decided to bury that memory so deep it would never have a reason to come back up again.‎‎“Hmmm,” I trailed off, trying to find the right words. I was dumb, and I can admit that. The real problem is that whenever Maxton mentions that girl Aaliyah, my brain goes crazy. I get so jealous that I start blurting out the most unnecessary stuff just to fill the silence. “I don’t know, I was thinking maybe we could just talk about it and maybe I could apologize for…”‎‎“There’s nothing to talk about concerning New York,” Maxton said casually, turning his attention back to his phone as he scrolled through it. “You already said it yourself. Whatever happened in New York was just temporary fun, and you were right.” He paused, then looked up
