"Why the fuck does terrible thing often happen to us anytime you're here? Any time you're here on the rink!" Benett, Silas' assistant captain, yelled at the top of his lungs after the ambulance wheeled Silas out of the rink.

He had had a sudden heart attack, which was something scary and shocking. And I had tried my best to revive him, and in the process, I mistakenly pushed Janie to the side to attend to him which also had her fall on the slippery rink. Now, it was both of them b

  • Rejected By The Hockey Captain, Claimed By His Coach    Chapter 51– The Results

    Silas CraneTwo weeks had already gone by, and the elders and I had to assemble once more to hear the results of the DNA tests. Two weeks of me trying to remember who that woman really was because I still couldn't recognise her. No matter how drunk I had ever gotten, I always remembered every single detail."My wolf doesn't recognise her, Patrick." I told him quietly on our way towards the council room. "My wolf doesn't recognize her scent. And you should know what that means, Patrick. There's something terribly wrong somewhere."Even when drunk, I never went out of character. The worst I could do in that state was pick a fight with someone, and not sleep with some woman. Thinking back to that night, I was drunk, angry and frustrated after what Lori had done, and I hated every single woman at that point. I didn't even let Janie sleep in the same room with me that night. Why would I randomly fuck some woman?"You should know me by now, Patrick. About what I'm capable of doing..."Patri

    Janie CraneAfter the council meeting ended with the elders, I grabbed Rhea by her arm and grabbed her into an empty corridor after everyone had dispersed. Only one elder stayed back because they were waiting for the pack nurse or doctor to come and take the child's sample."What the hell was that?" I hissed, my voice just below a whisper. "They're going to make you Luna? That wasn't part of the plan."That was when Rhea's expression lifted into something smug, changing from the lonely fragile woman she had been some minutes ago, and I just realized coldly that I was dealing with a snake."You paid me to get Silas reinstated, didn't you?" She flipped her hair to the side with a slow smile pulling at the corners of her lips. "That is exactly what I'm doing. What? You don't like it? Just because the condition is becoming his Luna? Are you going to stand in the way of his re-coronation with your jealousy?""How would you feel if you were in my place and I was taking your position?" I sna

    Dante DominicThe drive back to the hospital was the longest thirty minutes of my life. "Can't you drive faster, Marcus?" I shouted at a car that was going too slow, at a light that was taking too long, at the entire world that seemed determined to keep me from getting to my son. "Marcus, run the damn light."Marcus stepped on the gas pedal and sped past the light, but the speed still wasn't enough for me. I wanted to be there in the hospital at this moment. "Marcus—""Dante, I need you to breathe." Marcus tried to calm me, which only pissed me off more. "The hospital has security on it. They've locked down the building. No one will get in or out without being checked. If someone took your son, they're still in that hospital."What if they weren't? What if they had gotten out before the lockdown? What if my son was still miles away in the back of some stranger's car? Who would have taken him? What motive did they have? I didn't have any enemies, and Lori's delivery had been kept as qu

    Silas CraneI balled my fists in anger when Dante disappeared into the tunnels with his phone pressed against his ear. How dare he think he could just leave after he hit me with that revelation. His wife? He made Lori his wife after what he did to her? How dark was his heart? How..."Coach!" I yelled after him, but he was already gone with Marcus at his heels, both of them moving so fast as if something terrible had happened. My mind raced with so many thoughts and most of them centred on Lori. ."He didn't even look at you." Benett's voice came from behind me, bitter and mocking. "None of us matter anymore. We're just the men who hurt his precious wife.""Shut up, Benett." I snapped and turned to him, remembering the part he played in hurting Lori, alongside other members of the team. All because he became the temporary captain of the team after I was hospitalised."It's true. He disbanded the team, Silas. Our careers are over. And for what? Some Omega who couldn't keep her legs clos

  • Rejected By The Hockey Captain, Claimed By His Coach    Chapter 47– The Disbanding

    Dante DominicRenee appeared the next morning with a woman beside her. She looked like an older nurse with silver-streaked hair. "Her name is Margaret," Renée said, smoothing an invisible wrinkle from the woman's collar. "She's worked with three billionaire families in the past decade. She's discreet, professional, and she was available immediately. I thought she could help with the twins while you... while we figure things out with Lori."I looked at the woman and she met my gaze without flinching, which made me understand that she wasn't human, but a werewolf like us. I felt slightly relieved."You understand the situation?" I asked."Your wife is in a coma. You have newborn twins. You need someone who can handle night feedings and other things." She said it as a matter-of-fact. "I've handled worse, Mr. Dominic. I'll take care of your children like they were my own."I felt myself steadily relaxing. "Alright" I looked up at Renee. "Since you're certain that she is good, I'll have t

  • Rejected By The Hockey Captain, Claimed By His Coach    Chapter 46– They Could Be Mine

    Dante Dominic"They look like her," Marcus said from the doorway, his arms folded across his chest. He has been coming and going all morning, handling the things I couldn't handle myself. "They have her mouth." I agreed as I traced my daughter's cheek with the back of my finger. "Her stubbornness, probably. She kicked the nurse during her first checkup."Marcus let out a little laugh, but his expression quickly morphed into concern, like always. "Are you sure you're alright, man?"I nodded without thinking about the question. I wasn't because I let Lori down, and I would never forgive myself for that. Marcus was about saying something else when my phone rang, interrupting us. I checked my phone and the fall was from my father.I sighed heavily, contemplating whether to answer it or not, but it wouldn't look good on me because he was the one currently sponsoring the hospital stay. Not like I couldn't do it myself with my own money, but he had insisted, saying that the money was still

    Lori's POVI couldn't stop thinking about him, even after practice was over and we went back home in separate cars. And every time his face came up at the back of my mind, I always felt my heart racing for no reason at all. Maybe there was a reason... Maybe it was because of the memory of his finge

    Lori's POV "You will be starting immediately as the team's medic. I will give you our training schedules." He paused and met my eyes from across the breakfast table. "I'm sure you're already well aware of it, but for formality sake." His cutlery barely made any noise on his plate. "Don't be late.

    Lori's POV "I'll need you to carefully read the terms and conditions of the contract before you sign it." He slipped the document on the hospital bed where I was having my breakfast. "I don't do second chances."His voice was hard and cold the same way it had been last night, and he towered over m

    Lori's POV "My children, oh my goodness. Are they... Are they...?" I sat up immediately, my hands moving around my belly, trying to see if I was feeling any pain there, if they were fine, if they were—"Your babies are fine, ma'am. Which is a miraculous thing after all your body has been through."
