MasukBlake“Good game guys. You played well and I don’t tell you often enough, but I am fiercely proud of you. Blake you were awesome out there tonight. Everyone ready to hit the showers and have some time to let off steam?”Coaches’ words make us all feel a bit emotional. The last part of the game was the hardest. We all got a battering one way or another and I was put against the boards more times than I can count. But my guys were there for me and thankfully, this time, I came away with no injuries.Now all I want is a hot shower and get changed so I can go back to the hotel and be with Roxy.“Thanks, Coach. We’re proud to be going through to the semi-finals in Montreal.” It only gives us a few down days but that is all we will need. My guys on the team are super amped up, jerseys are flying around, hollering and whooping fills the locker rooms and it makes me smile to see these guys having the time of their life.The deserve it. All the months and the years we’ve put into our careers i
RoxyOh, how my heart flutters seeing him on the ice and blowing me kisses and telling me, for the entire world to see that he loves me. My heart literally feels like it is swelling. Even though he can’t see me, I do blow kisses back and rest my hands both on my chest.The game begins and the skaters are off. His legs are so powerful, his body moves like he is skating on air. Blake takes my breath away as I watch him take possession of the puck and drive it. He passes it to number eleven, who I think is Ford. Damn, I always get them all mixed up. You’d think I would be able to remember.Then number eleven takes it and takes it forward. One of the other team tries to skate into Blake but he does some kind of fancy footwork that makes me smile and manages to dodge them. The puck comes back his way. Will they score already? I know how much this game means to him. It means everything. And I have a gut feeling that tonight could be their lucky night.If they win this game, they will be int
BlakeTo be honest, I feel much better than I did yesterday. Roxy is who I am worried about. She is looking pale and won’t eat a lot. I knew her using her powers to try and save me would drain her. And she is refusing to see the doctor. My father, whom I have spoken to advised me to just let her rest. He has spoken to the elders and they do not feel that Roxy will die but that she will need complete rest for at least a few weeks.Dammit, I have the game tonight and whereas I am pumped up to get back on the ice, I now don’t want to leave her side. We have gone from her saving me, to me wanting to do nothing but take care of her. Only, I don’t have her powers, I can’t make her better and it frustrates the holy shit out of me. Not even our pack doctor can do anything for her right now.“Go,” she insists as she lays on the sofa with a book on her chest. She has been pretending to read whilst I’ve been getting ready for the game. Roxy doesn’t fool me. I can see her eyes have been closed.“
RoxyHis head moves and his eyes begin to flutter open. Those long, dark lashes that surround them. I want to reach out and feel them but I don’t. I’m weak. Using my powers to get into his head have left me exhausted and drained. A chill passes through my body but I must remain strong for Blake.“Baby,” I say. “Open your eyes some more, you can do it. Come back to us.” He groans and I can only imagine the pain from the wounds that he is in. He must be agony. The doctor from the pack has patched him up and bandaged him much better than before. He has resealed some of the wounds.“Roxy,” he murmurs. “You’re here.”“Darling I am here, I will always be here by your side.” I take his hand in mine and rest the other hand on top of it. He still feels cold but nothing like he did when he was stepping into the other world. Shit, that scared the life out of me. Knowing he was questioning whether to stay in that life or to come back to this.“My game, I have to play,” he says taking me by surpri
BlakeMy body feels weird. Almost like it is floating or is that my mind. I seem to be in some kind of parallel universe. I am not in the vehicle with Roxy; I am in the forest in my wolf form. Running and running so hard that my tongue is hanging out and I am taking in as much air as I can and oxygen for my lungs.I can feel movement but when I look down, I don’t see myself in human form. What is going on? Why am I in the forest in wolf form? Where is Roxy? Where is my beautiful Luna? Pain sears through my body and in m neck.Then I remember. The fight, the battle with Alexei. Are we still fighting? Am I running away? Why can’t I figure this shit out? What the fuck is going on?My mouth tries to move but nothing comes out. I can’t even call to her. There is a woman in front of me as I stop in my tracks. She’s wearing a floor length dress, shimmering in white with long blonde hair. Is it Roxy? I try to speak and still nothing happens. I notice she wears no shoes on her feet and her toe
RoxyI am talking to Blake but he doesn’t answer. I turn my head to look at him, shock hits me like a speeding truck. It feels like a gut punch and leaves me feeling winded.“Blake. Blake.” I shove his shoulder with my hand, his head lolls to the side and the blood is coming through the stitching. Shit, he looks as white as a ghost. This doesn’t look good.“Blake, come on baby you need to wake up for me. Blake, stay with me. Please I need you. Don’t leave me now,” I say through the tears that are starting to roll down my eyes. The fight must have been too much for him and we don’t know for sure if he sustained internal injuries or not. I mean, it is possible. They fought hard and were going to continue until one of them got seriously hurt or killed.He murmurs something but it is unintelligible and I can’t make it out.I knock on the divider between us in the back, and the driver up front who has a guard sitting with him. “We need help in here, we need help in the back. Stop the vehic
