Chapter 24 - Slipping Control

Author: Ruby
last update Last Updated: 2025-09-20 03:29:54

Timothy's POV:

The nightmares started three weeks ago. Dreams where Kael runs through endless forests, hunting for something I refuse to name. Tonight I wake up shifted in my bed, claws shredding thousand-dollar sheets, amber eyes reflecting in the mirror.

I stumble to the bathroom and splash cold water on my face. My hands are still partially shifted, claws slowly pulling back into regular fingernails. It takes five minutes before they look normal again.

"Get it together," I mutter to my reflection.

My phone shows twelve missed calls from Madison. Three voice messages asking if I want to get breakfast. The timestamp says 3:47 AM. She was probably drunk at some party, posting stories about her amazing night.

I walk back to my bedroom and look at the damage. The sheets are destroyed. Long tears run from the headboard to the foot of the bed. There are claw marks gouged into the wooden headboard itself. My father is going to ask questions if he sees this.

  • Rejected By My Hockey Alpha   Chapter 25 - The Backlash

    Timothy's POVThe comments section under my latest Instagram post is a wasteland. Where there used to be fire emojis and thirsty compliments, now there's nothing but hate. "Imagine rejecting the Ice Angel," someone writes. "Timothy Blackthorn is an idiot," says another.My thumb hovers over the delete button, but what's the point? There are thousands of them now."Dude, you need to see this," Ethan says, bursting into my apartment without knocking.He's holding his phone like it's radioactive. The screen shows that damn rejection video again, the view count climbing toward four million."The rejection video is everywhere," he continues, sinking into my couch uninvited. "It's got three million views on TikTok alone."I snatch the phone from him and watch myself destroy Penelope all over again. The comments are brutal. "She dodged a bullet." "Look how she glows up after leaving his toxic ass." "He doesn't deserve her."My jaw clenches as I scroll through endless variations of the same t

  • Rejected By My Hockey Alpha   Chapter 23 - Morning After Confessions

    Penelope's POV"So?" Isla bounces on her bed like an excited puppy, her coffee mug forgotten in her enthusiasm. "Details. Now. All of them."I curl up against my pillows, still processing everything from last night. My body aches in new ways, reminders of what happened with Liam. Part of me wants to share every detail with my best friend, but another part feels oddly protective of the experience."It was..." I pause, searching for the right words while heat creeps up my neck. "Good. Really good.""Good?" Isla throws a pillow at me, which I catch with a laugh. "That's all you're giving me? Girl, you disappeared with the hottest Alpha on campus and came back looking like you got thoroughly ravished, and all you can say is 'good'?"I laugh despite myself, tucking the pillow against my chest. "Fine. It was incredible. He was gentle and sweet and everything a first time should be."Isla's eyes go wide, her coffee mug nearly slipping from her fingers. "I knew it! I fucking knew you were sti

  • Rejected By My Hockey Alpha   Chapter 22: Fuck Me

    Penelope's POVLiam blushed as he pulled me close, his hands tentative on my body. "Penelope," he said softly, his voice barely a whisper. "If this is too much, we can stop. I don't want to rush you into anything you're not ready for."I smiled up at him, my hands reaching for the buttons on his shirt. "Liam, I want this," I said firmly. "I want you. And I don't want you to hold back, not even a little bit."He hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Are you sure?" he asked. "I don't have any protection with me. I wasn't planning on this happening tonight."I laughed, pulling him down for a kiss. "It's okay," I said against his lips. "I came prepared." I held up the condom I'd brought with me, a sly smile on my face.He arched a brow, a smirk playing on his lips. "Well, aren't you a naughty girl," he teased.I shrugged, pulling him back down for another kiss. "Maybe I am," I said, my voice low and husky. "But I want you to be naughty with me."He complied, his hands sliding up my body t

  • Rejected By My Hockey Alpha   Chapter 21: Date Scene

    Penelope's POVI stare at myself in the mirror, barely recognizing the girl looking back. Since my makeover, I've got this whole new wardrobe that actually fits me right. Tonight though, I decided to skip the heavy makeup. Natural feels better."Hold still," Isla says, tugging at the hem of the black dress she picked out for me. "This dress is absolutely perfect on you.""It's not too much?" I ask, smoothing down the fabric."Are you kidding?" She steps back to admire her work. "Liam's going to lose his mind when he sees you."Isla finishes fixing my hair, pulling it back in this loose style that somehow makes me look older, more confident. The knock on the door comes right at seven."He's punctual," Isla grins. "I like him already."I open the door to find Liam standing there in dark jeans and a button-down shirt. His eyes go wide when he sees me."Wow," he says, running a hand through his hair. "You look incredible.""Thanks," I say, grabbing my jacket. "You clean up pretty well you

  • Rejected By My Hockey Alpha   Chapter 20 - The Fool's Gift

    Liam's POVI'm heading back to my dorm after walking Penelope home when the secret I've been carrying hits me like a slap shot to the chest.I was the one who took the video. Hell, I was the one who posted it online.Not the rejection video. Everyone saw that disaster. I'm talking about the hockey video. The one of her skating at the community rink, pulling off moves that would make varsity players jealous. The one that somehow ended up in front of college scouts.She has no idea I'm the reason she got those scholarship offers.I'd been watching her practice for months at that rink back home. Every Tuesday and Thursday night, she'd show up alone with secondhand equipment and skate like her life depended on it. Better than half the guys on Timothy's precious team, and she was doing it with gear that should have been retired years ago.The night I filmed her, she scored three goals on an empty net from impossible angles, then practiced defensive moves until the rink manager kicked her
