TALIA'S POV

“Fuck…” The curse slipped out before I could stop it. I instantly scolded myself. This was going to be harder than I thought.

Not even a full day, scratch that, not even three hours in New York and Maxton was already under my skin. It was unbearable.

My mind flashed back to earlier, that humiliating moment when he handed me my panties. God. Just thinking about it made me want to crawl under the floor.

The way he had dangled it in front of me, all smug, was beyond disturbing. And of course, it had to be that one. The Hello Kitty ones. I had bought it on a whim because I thought it was cute, but cute in the privacy of your own room way. Not in the here’s what you wear around a man way. It was mortifying.

My phone buzzed, pulling me out of the cringe spiral. A new message.

It was from an unknown number. I opened it, and sure enough it was a photo of the daily schedule Maxton had promised to send.

Who knew he had another number to text me from because I blocked the first? Hone

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 108

    Talia's POV. Shit! It was Emily. She was a dragon breathing fire like she had a nest to protect. If I had known better, I would have rushed into Maxton's car and begged him to zoom off before she drew closer. “I can't believe you're so selfish,” she continued, storming closer in my direction. Maxton turned off his car and stepped out of his car, his face completely ridden in surprise. “Emily, what's wrong? I can explain,” “Explain?” She stood a foot away from me, gritting her teeth. “I should pull out your hair from your scalp.” “Why would you do that? Can you explain why you are so…. Angry!” “I told you not to bring up my name with Steve. I told you he is a psycho. I told you to forget about it,” her voice cracked. “I did not… oh shit,” I gasped. I had just realized I might have mentioned her name previously. But it was only for a second, I… I…“Oh my God, Emily, I am so sorry. Your name must have slipped out of my mouth earlier. Trust me, I didn't mean to,” I begged. “Trust

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 107

    Maxton’s POV. I should have stayed in the locker room, it would have been best for me, but I had to play hero. I had to run into the mess, now I'm left wondering how I got myself into this. “Is this how you guys planned to handle it as adults?” Principal Riles continued yelling. She tilted her neck in my direction and glanced at me. “And Maxton, what are you doing here? Now I'm convinced you are attracted to drama,” Of course, I caught a stray. I gazed at Talia, her expression twisting like she was about to cut in. Sharply. “What can I say, principal? I was heading in this direction and…” “Principal Riles, please I have to talk to you,” Micheala stepped forward, crossing her arms in a tight hold. She glanced at Steve and gnashed her teeth. “Steve tried to…” “Nobody is gonna believe you, wrap it up!” Steve growled, storming close to her. “I think you should let the girl speak for herself,” the words just slipped out of my mouth. Steve clenched his fist, his eyes darting angrily

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 106

    Maxton’s POV. It had been well over twenty minutes since the speakers announced the principal's request for Talia in her office. I guessed she did something wrong, but she was keeping it from me. Not like I cared, I was just curious. “What are you thinking about? Did Aaliyah break your heart?” Johnny snapped me back to reality. I huffed at him and tossed the hand towel on my shoulder into my locker. “It's nothing,” “It doesn't look like that to me.” He sat at the bench. “What now? Are you my father or what?” I gruffed. He frowned for a split second, then curled his eyebrows as I put on a blue tank top. “Hold on, are you… worried about Talia?” “You're crazy,” I hissed, walking out on him. He followed behind me, leaping with a weird smile. “Dude, the principal isn't gonna punish her, she…” “Johnny, can we not do this right now? I'm not thinking about her. I'm with Aaliyah and she's the best I ever had,” Way to end that terribly. It only made Johnny keep teasing me. He ran up

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 105

    Talia's POV. “Talia Hermen,” the principal pinched the bridge of her nose in exasperation. She heaved a sigh and darted her eyes at me. “Explain yourself.” she said in a commanding tone. Steve gaped at me, his eyes reflecting a pure hatred I never knew he had for me. Somehow, I could see a piece of Zeke in him. They had the same eyes. The same dark spirit. I blinked at principal Riles and swallowed nervously. “Excuse me, why am I here? I hope there isn't any problem.” I said softly. “This bitch!” Steve huffed, looking away with a frustrated smile. “You still have the nerves to lie, do you?” “Don't call me a bitch, you jerk,” I fired. Steve glared at me, then glanced at principal Riles. “Can you believe her? I told you to just kick her out but you wouldn't refuse. Now I have to keep seeing this bum all day,” “Kick me out?” I stepped closer to the principal Riles table. “For what exactly, I don't understand what's going on,” I said with a puzzled look. Principal Riles didn't lo

  • Her Hockey Stepbrother, Her Worst Enemy, Her Beloved   Chapter 104

    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?”
