Danny's POV

Laughter takes over me as I sit in my car, one hand on the steering wheel, the other pressed to my stomach. I can barely breathe.

Right in front of me…clear as day…is the most beautiful sight I’ve seen in a long time.

Clinton.

Frozen.

Staring at his best friend Richard, tied to a pole. Completely naked.

I lean back against my car, savoring it like fine wine. Money can’t buy this. This is earned joy. Pure art.

Richard looks like a sad statue. His shoulders slump. His face is red. Hi

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    127. Everybody Knew Except Me

    Catherine's POV I don’t know how long I stay unconscious, but when my eyes finally open again, the first thing I see is the ceiling above me.White.Still.Quiet.I lie there staring at it while my head throbs faintly and my body feels too heavy to move properly. My mouth is dry. My chest hurts in that strange, deep way it’s been hurting all day.Then my brain catches up.Danny.The wolf.Bones snapping.Golden eyes.My stomach twists instantly.“No,” I whisper under my breath, shaking my head slowly at the ceiling. “No, that can’t be real.”I swallow hard and sit there trying to force logic back into my head because people don’t turn into animals. That doesn’t happen. None of this makes sense.I probably hallucinated the whole thing.Stress does crazy things to people.Maybe I hit my head after fainting.Maybe Danny drugged me somehow.Yeah.That has to be it.But then my eyes start burning again, and tears slide quietly down the sides of my face before I even realize I’m crying.I

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    126. We’re Werewolves

    Catherine's POV My phone rests on my thigh while I stare at Clinton’s name glowing on the screen.Still no call.No text.Nothing.The silence keeps stretching and stretching until it starts feeling personal.He dropped me off at the hospital after I fainted, then disappeared completely. No checkup. No explanation. Not even one stupid message asking if I’m okay.Typical Clinton.Whenever things finally start feeling stable between us, he somehow finds a way to ruin it.I unlock my phone again and scroll through my contacts slowly even though I already know where his name is. My thumb stops over it.Clinton.One click.That’s all it takes.But my hand just stays there, frozen.I sigh sharply and throw the phone onto the bed instead.“Forget him.”The words sound weak even to me.I press a hand against my chest because something still feels wrong inside me. Ever since this morning, my heartbeat hasn’t settled properly. It keeps skipping strangely, hard enough to make me stop breathing

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    125. She Belongs to Me

    Danny's POV By the time I get outside, Natasha’s car is already disappearing.Unbelievable.She really thinks she can destroy everything and drive away peacefully afterward.My jaw tightens as I head toward my car. I’m already imagining dragging her back here by force just so she can explain what gave her the confidence to walk into Catherine’s apartment and ruin my morning.I yank the car door open and slide inside.The engine hasn’t even started before my phone begins ringing.I almost ignore it.Honestly, whoever’s calling right now has terrible timing.I pull the phone from my pocket anyway, ready to curse the idiot out, but the second I see the screen, I pause.Mom.Of course.A long sigh leaves my mouth before I answer.“Hello, Mom.”“Where are you?”Straight to interrogation as usual.I lean back against the seat and close my eyes briefly.“Why does everybody suddenly care where I am today?”“Danny.”That tone.Sharp enough to cut through irritation instantly.I rub the back o

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    124. Everything Fell Apart in Ten Minutes

    Danny's POV The second I reach Catherine’s apartment, I start pounding on the door hard enough to wake the entire building.My chest still hasn’t settled since seeing Clinton earlier. Blood all over him. Tears on his face. That broken look in his eyes when he whispered Catherine’s name.I keep hearing it over and over during the drive here.Please don’t be dead.Funny thing is, I didn’t even realize how badly I needed her alive until those thoughts started crawling into my head.The door finally unlocks.It opens slowly.And there she is.Relief hits me so hard it almost feels humiliating.Alive.Breathing.Standing right in front of me.She looks different. Pale. Exhausted. Her eyes are dull in a way I’ve never seen before, as if she hasn’t slept properly in days. Even the way she stands there feels heavy.My heart starts beating harder anyway.I almost pull her into my arms right there.Almost.Then somebody shoves past me from behind.I turn sharply.Natasha storms straight into t

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    123. The Day Clinton Broke

    Danny's POV It’s been two days since I told Catherine the truth about me and Clinton being brothers, and the silence since then has been almost funny.No screaming calls.No dramatic confrontation.Nothing.She hasn’t called me once, and as much as I hate admitting it, I’ve checked my phone more times than I should. Even Clinton disappeared too. I haven’t seen his face anywhere around the mansion.I pace around my room with both hands buried deep in my pockets, trying not to think too much about it because thinking too much always leads somewhere ugly.Did she forgive him already?The thought annoys me more than it should.I stop near the window and stare outside at the sky. Wolves move around the compound below, guards changing shifts, cars coming in and out through the gates, life moving normally while my head keeps circling the same thing over and over.No. Catherine can’t be that stupid.Then again, people in love become embarrassing sometimes.A scoff leaves my mouth.If she rea

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    122. Two Gunshots Too Late

    Clinton's POV Richard starts walking toward me through the silence, stepping around the blood spreading across the concrete floor as if the dead bodies mean nothing to him anymore.The gun hangs loose in his hand. Smoke still curls from the barrel. When he stops in front of me, he says nothing at first. His eyes stay on mine for a few seconds, searching my face carefully, before he crouches beside one of the wolves lying on the ground.Two more gunshots explode through the warehouse.The body jerks violently.Then the second one gets the same treatment. Another two bullets straight into the chest.I stare at him.“What the hell are you doing?”He ignores me completely.His claws snap out slowly, sharp silver catching the weak warehouse light, and before I can process what he’s about to do, he drives his hand into the dead wolf’s chest.Wet tearing fills the room.Blood spills across his arm as he rips the man’s heart out.Something twists hard in my stomach.Richard tosses the heart

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    115. Let Him Go

    Clinton's POV I open the door.“You’re not welcome here, Cody.”The words leave my mouth sharp and fast before I even fully see him.The cold night air carries the faint smell of alcohol and dust from the hallway. The light above the corridor flickers slightly, like it is struggling to stay steady

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    114. Stay Here

    Clinton's POV Honestly, I didn’t see that question coming.It hits me the moment it leaves her mouth, and everything inside me just stops. I try to find the right words, but they’re not coming.Because the truth is right there.All of it.Not just about my family.But everything… everything I’ve d

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    113. You’re Not Alone Anymore

    Catherine's POV The room feels smaller than before.Not because the walls have moved, but because everything inside it feels heavier now… like the air itself has thickened, pressing against my chest and making it harder to breathe. The ceiling fan spins slowly above us, its soft, repetitive clicki

  • My Ex's Brother Is the Hockey Alpha    112. Twenty Missed Calls Later

    Clinton's POV By the time I hit call again, I already know how this is going to end, but I do it anyway. I stand there, listening to the ringing stretch out in my ear until it finally dies off, leaving me staring at my phone…my thumb hovering over her name as if pressing it one more time will sudd
