More than Rivals, Less than Mates Seventy one
Alpha Vergara was in his office when his own phone vibrated. He frowned at the message, his son was being sent to Alpha Perez's pack. He leaned back in his chair. "It's proably Jonathan's handwork" he muttered to himself. A knock came at the door. "Come in." Luna Eve stepped inside carrying two mugs of coffee. "You've been hiding in here all evening." She noticed the expression on his face immediately. "What happened?" Talon silently handed her the phone. She read the message once before looking back at him. "Do you want me to reach out to Jonathan, he might listen to me and change his mind" "No there is no need for that, Ryder might hate me but he won't do anything bad to Tanner." Luna Eve slowly sat down opposite him. "Maybe this is a sign." "A sign?" "That it's finally time to settle this with Ryder." Alpha Vergara closed his eyes. "I have wanted to settle it with him since." "So why haven't you?" "Because every time I try, he shuts me down and throws more hate
More than Rivals, Less than Mates Seventy
Monday morning arrived with complete chaos. Rovak was halfway through breakfast when Liam stormed into his apartment without knocking. "Emergency!" Rovak looked up lazily. "What is it now?." Liam shoved his phone into Rovak's face. "Look!" Rovak frowned at the screen. A sports gossip account had posted several photographs from the charity festival. The first showed him and Tanner laughing after the three legged race. The second showed Rovak fixing the knot around Tanner's ankle. The third... The final team photograph. Rovak and Tanner were standing shoulder to shoulder, smiling at each other instead of the camera. The caption read: 'Everglades' biggest rivals... or hockey's newest bromance? 👀' Below it... Thousands of comments. "Why are they always together lately?" "I thought they hated each other?" "This rivalry suddenly feels suspiciously friendly." "They're either secretly best friends or the greatest actors alive." "That smile doesn't look fake..." Rovak si

The next Saturday, the league organized a promotional event for children. Players from every Everglades Hockey League team had been invited to spend the afternoon coaching young fans. Rovak adjusted the sleeves of his training jersey as he stepped onto the ice. The arena buzzed with excitement. Children raced around in oversized helmets while parents filled the stands with cameras in hand. "This is chaos," Frank muttered. "I think it's cool" Liam said instead. "That's because you mentally the same age with them" Frank replied. Liam had an affronted look on his face, Rovak laughed, "I think it's adorable Liam, don't mind Frank." he told Liam. "It won't be adorable when one of them uses my stick as a sword." Frank replied. Almost immediately, a little boy grabbed Frank's hockey stick. "Told you," Frank sighed as he went after the squealing boy to retrieve his stick. ... On the opposite side of the rink, Tanner skated onto the ice with the Sparrows. The moment the c

The next morning, Rovak arrived at the Delta Eagles training facility earlier than usual. The atmosphere felt...different. Players who were usually joking around were instead gathered in small groups, talking quietly among themselves. Liam spotted him first. "There you are." "What happened?" Rovak asked. Liam shrugged. "No clue. Coach just said everyone had to be here an hour early." Frank walked over carrying two cups of coffee. "I have a feeling this isn't good news." "Why?" Rovak asked. "Because two emergency meetings back to back is worrying." Almost on cue, the coach walked into the locker room. "Hello, everyone. Sorry to bring you in here on such short notice again" The chatter in the room immediately died down and the players became serious. ... The coach stood at the front of the room with the team's assistant manager beside him. Neither of them looked particularly happy. The coach folded his arms. "I'll get straight to the point. The league has made an anno

Rovak and Tanner were busy watching movies, curled up in each other's arms. Rovak's phone vibrated repeatedly on the coffee table. He glanced at the screen and smiled. "Who is it?" Tanner asked. "Liam." Rovak answered the call and immediately pulled the phone away from his ear. "Rovak! Where are you? We have an emergency team meeting" Rovak frowned. "What happened?" "I don't know, Coach justs wants everyone at the arena." "When?" "Now." Rovak sighed dramatically. "Can't emergencies happen tomorrow?" "Just get here soon" Liam told him. Rovak ended the call and looked over at Tanner. "I have to go." Tanner stretched lazily across the couch. "Don't, stay with me darling." "I really have to go." Rovak told him. Tanner groaned. "If someone photographs me leaving your apartment, social media will have a field day." Rovak laughed. "Soon, there will be no need to hide." Tanner told him. "I hope so" For a brief moment, neither of them moved. Rovak cupped Tanner's

It was morning. Rovak had spent the night in Tanner's apartment. Tanner's arms were around him. Rovak smiled, he could get used to this. He turned and looked at the sleeping Tanner, he kissed him lightly. Tanner smiled in his sleep and held Rovak even more tightly. His arm was wrapped possessively around Rovak's waist, he buried his face against Rovak's chest. Rovak smiled. "You clingy wolf," he whispered. Tanner only hummed in response, tightening his hold. "You know I am not running away right?" Rovak asked. Tanner mumbled in his sleep. Rovak carefully brushed the messy strands of brown hair away from Tanner's forehead. The past few weeks had been one revelation after another, discovering pieces of their fathers past, his father's apology. Yet somehow, this moment felt bigger than all of those. It was... normal, no arguments, or issues, just the both of them in their own world. Just waking up beside the person he loved. He could get used to this, Tanner slowly ope

When a letter inviting Rovak to play for the Delta Eagles, he wasn't excited. Rather it reminded him of what he couldn't have.He hid the letter in his room, knowing River, he would snoop around in his room to cause mischief."Rovak! We are late" Alpha Perez called."I am coming father" he called b

Tanner sat nervously opposite his parents as they had dinner. But he couldn't even hear a word they were saying. All that ran through his mind was what had happened earlier in the shower. Usually Rovak looked unapproachable but back then in the shower, his face had looked so entrancing. Oh godde
