CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOUR – Fifty Percent

Stella’s POV

He looked at Jaxon, then back at me.

“You really think you can come back here after everything and simply continue as if nothing happened?”

I opened my mouth, but before I could answer, Jaxon stepped slightly forward.

His hand was still close to mine, although he hadn’t touched me yet.

“She didn’t come here to pretend nothing happened.”

My father looked at him. “Then why is she here?”

“Because she earned her place here.”

    CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOUR – Fifty PercentStella’s POVHe looked at Jaxon, then back at me.“You really think you can come back here after everything and simply continue as if nothing happened?”I opened my mouth, but before I could answer, Jaxon stepped slightly forward.His hand was still close to mine, although he hadn’t touched me yet.“She didn’t come here to pretend nothing happened.”My father looked at him. “Then why is she here?”“Because she earned her place here.”My father’s expression hardened. “I am the one who decides who stays.”Jaxon remained calm. “You can make decisions about your side of the organization.”My father gave a cold smile. “My side?”I noticed several people looking at each other.My father folded his arms. “You seem to be forgetting who you are speaking to.”Jaxon looked at him without changing his expression. “No, I know exactly who I am speaking to.”There was something different about his voice now.He wasn’t angry, he wasn’t shouting.He didn’t need to.

  • My Plus-Sized Hockey Luna   Back

    CHAPTER EIGHTY-FOUR – BackStella’s POVI woke up the next morning in a room that still did not feel like mine.For a few seconds, I remained still beneath the blanket, staring at the ceiling while I tried to remember where I was, and then everything from the previous day slowly returned to me.The journey from my mother’s hometown.Jaxon’s house.The conversation outside the beautiful building.His promise that I would return to the rink because I had earned my place there.I slowly sat up and looked around the room.The curtains were slightly open, allowing the morning light to enter, while the room remained quiet enough for me to hear the faint sounds of birds outside.It was strange waking up somewhere so peaceful after spending so many days carrying anger, disappointment, and sadness everywhere I went.I got out of bed and walked toward the window.The garden looked beautiful in the morning light, and for a moment, I wondered how different my life would have been if I had been ab

  • My Plus-Sized Hockey Luna   A Place Of Her Own

    CHAPTER EIGHTY Three – A Place of Her OwnStella’s POVThe journey back was quieter than I expected.Jaxon drove without trying to fill every moment with conversation, and somehow I was grateful for that because my mind was already crowded with too many thoughts to deal with another long explanation.I watched the road through the window as the village slowly disappeared behind us, and with every mile that passed, I felt something inside me becoming heavier.I had spent so long trying to convince myself that I wanted to leave everything behind, yet now that I was actually leaving my mother’s hometown, I couldn’t stop thinking about the little wooden house, the old field, and the hockey goal that had been there since I was a child.That place had been my escape.It had been the place my mother had promised would always be there whenever I needed somewhere to call home.And now I was leaving it again.Jaxon glanced at me several times during the drive, but he didn’t ask what I was think

    CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE – One Last ChanceStella’s POVThe first thing I noticed was the warmth.For a moment, I thought I was still dreaming because I couldn’t hear the thunder anymore. The storm that had kept me awake with fear throughout the night was gone. Instead, I could hear birds singing somewhere outside the little house, and a gentle breeze brushed against the curtains.Slowly, I opened my eyes.The fire in the fireplace had burned down to glowing embers, but it was still warm enough to keep the room comfortable.I blinked a few times, trying to remember what had happened.The storm, the power outage, the fear.Jaxon breaking the door to get inside, the blanket he had wrapped around me.The fire he had started, then something felt… strange.My head wasn’t resting on my pillow, it was resting against something warm.My heart skipped a beat.Slowly, I looked down.My eyes widened immediately.I was leaning against Jaxon.Even worse… One of my hands was clutching the front of hi

  • My Plus-Sized Hockey Luna   I Am Not Leaving

    CHAPTER Eighty One – I Am Not LeavingJaxon’s POVThe words stayed between us long after Stella said them.“This is my home.”I looked at her, hoping she would say something else.Anything.Instead, she stood quietly with the hockey stick still in her hand as the wind moved gently through the open field.The silence was heavier than any argument we had ever had.I had imagined this moment so many times while searching for her.I thought I would find the right words, I thought I would know exactly what to say but now that she was standing in front of me, nothing felt enough.No apology could erase what I had done, no promise could return everything she had lost.Still, I couldn’t leave not now, nof after finally finding her.I took a slow step toward her. “Stella.”She looked at me without saying a word. “I’m not asking you to forgive me today.”Her eyes remained calm.“I know I don’t deserve that.” I took another breath before continuing. “But come back with me.”She frowned.I hur

    CHAPTER Eighty - This Is My HomeJaxon’s POVFor a long moment, neither of us moved.The breeze drifted across the open field, carrying the faint scent of grass and wildflowers. Somewhere in the distance, birds sang without a care in the world. It was peaceful here, so peaceful that it almost felt unreal.Stella stood a few steps away from me with the hockey stick still resting loosely in her hands.The old wooden goal stood behind her.Several worn pucks lay scattered across the grass where she had been playing before I arrived.I didn’t know why she was here.I didn’t know why she had chosen this place.All I knew was that, for the first time in days, I had finally found her.And now that she was standing in front of me, every word I had prepared during the long drive disappeared from my mind.She looked different, not because of her clothes, not because of her hair.There was something in her eyes that had changed.The sadness was still there was the pain.But there was also a qui
