Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 119 - Hearts Apart, Still Connected
Aya’s POVIt had been a whole week since Lily left..And somehow, the pack mansion still felt wrong. It was too quiet and empty. I hadn't realized how much noise Lily brought into a room until she wasn't there anymore.She used to laugh loudly.. Argue loudly. Walk into rooms without knocking. Steal food from other people's plates and then act offended when they complained.Now her chair remained empty. Her room was untouched.And every time I passed the hallway leading toward it, my chest tightened.I hadn't even gotten to say goodbye.. That was the part that hurt the most.I knew why she had left. I understood why she had to go.Brinn was her mate. Her dreams had given her a clue. Redburg might hold the answers to her mark, her curse, and perhaps even what happened to Brinn and Sari. I wanna know what happened to my friends too.I understood all of that. But understanding didn't make it hurt any less.I sat on the couch, staring at the cup of tea in my hands. It had gone cold. Again.
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 118 - Chasing Shadows
Johanis’ POVI should've known something was wrong the moment Lily asked me to meet her alone.Not because she looked scared. Lily Martin rarely looked scared. But instead, she looked determined.Which, honestly, was worse.I stood in the doorway of her room, arms crossed over my chest as I watched her shove another shirt into an already overflowing bag. “Where are you going?”She didn't look at me. “Out.”“That's not an answer.”“It is technically an answer.”“Lily..”She sighed and finally turned around. “I’m going to find Brinn.”My entire body went still. “No.”She blinked. I didn't even give myself time to think about it. “No.”Her eyebrows rose. “You didn't even ask where.”“I don't need to.”“Joha—”“No.”She stared at me for a few seconds. Then she crossed her arms. “You're being dramatic.”“You're packing a bag to go find someone who disappeared years ago.”“I know.”“Someone who could be dead.”She paused and I could only wince and want to smack myself as she closed her eyes
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 117 - Caps, Pucks and Promises
Aya’s POVFive months later…If someone had told me seven or eight months ago that I would be standing in a graduation gown inside Woodhill University's grand hall, surrounded by people I had once been terrified of losing, I probably would've laughed in their face.Yet here I was.Graduating.It is just so funny that somehow I made it…I looked down at the dark fabric of my gown and tugged at the sleeves. “Does this look crooked?”Johanis glanced at me. “No, love.”“You answered too quickly.”He looked at me with those soft eyes of his.“Because it isn't crooked.”I narrowed my eyes and then he just smiled. “It looks perfect.”My cheeks warmed. “You're only saying that because you're my mate.”“I'm saying it because you're beautiful.”“Johanis..”“What?”“We're in a crowded hallway!” I grumbled but he merely shrugged. “So?”I looked around. Students were everywhere, rushing toward the graduation hall. Some were taking pictures. Others were fixing their gowns, adjusting their caps, or f
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 116 - Where We Belong
Aya’s POVAn hour ago…“I don’t like this.”I looked at my father and sighed. “You’ve said that six times, dad.”“Seven,” he corrected immediately.I rolled my eyes. We stood at the edge of the Frost Court, just before the portal that would take Johanis and me back to Woodhill. The air was cold enough to make my breath mist, but for once, I barely noticed it.My mother stood beside Dad, her hands clasped together in front of her.The ritual was over. The corruption was gone. The ancient presence that had been hunting my blood had been driven back. The forest was no longer tearing at my soul every second I breathed.I was alive.And somehow, so was everyone else.That should have made saying goodbye easier.News flash. It didn't..Mom stepped toward me first. I immediately threw my arms around her. She caught me just as tightly.“I hate goodbyes,” I whispered into her shoulder.“I know.”“You're supposed to say something reassuring.”She laughed softly, but I could hear the emotion in
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 115 - Two Marks, One Heart
Aya’s POVMy breath caught hard. “Johanis…”He pulled back just enough to look me in the eyes, his golden gaze burning, molten, hungry. One hand slid slowly down my side, over my hip, fingers pressing firm and sure into my skin. “You think I’ve waited this long, gone through every second of Bloodbury, every mile of the road back, every moment I had to share you with everyone else…just to stop here?” He leaned closer, his voice dropping to a growl that vibrated straight through me. “I’m only getting started.”My heart hammered so hard I thought it might burst. “Johanis, I—I thought..”“Thought what?” He kissed my jaw, slow and open-mouthed, then my throat, then right over my pulse point, making me arch and gasp. “Thought I’d let you go after one? That I’d be satisfied until you know exactly what it feels like to be mine. Every part, every inch, every breath?”He pulled back just far enough to meet my eyes again, his expression intense, unyielding, utterly devoted. “We have all night, m
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 114 - Yours To Keep
Aya's POVDinner eventually ended. Mom hugged me before we left. It lasted longer than usual. I hugged her back just as tightly."One or two years," I whispered."At least.""You promise?" I pouted as she pulled back and touched my cheek. "I promise, my darling girl.”I smiled and turned around as Dad hugged me next. It was shorter than Mom's. Mostly because he immediately said, "Don't tell your mother, but I intend to steal her away for a few weeks once things settle."Mom turned around. "I heard that."Dad froze and I covered my mouth to stifle my chuckles. Johanis was already laughing. We quickly escaped before Mom could threaten us.By the time Johanis and I reached our room, the palace had become quiet. I closed the door behind us.A soft click.And suddenly...It was just us. Just Johanis and me. I leaned against the door and exhaled. "Finally."He turned toward me. His golden eyes slowly traveled over my face. I immediately became suspicious. "What?""Nothing.""That's a lie."
