Aya's POV

I want to cover for my mate.

I want to say something—anything—that will redirect Elder Odin’s attention away from Johanis, away from the impossible blue fire, away from the truth sitting in my chest like a live wire.

But I don’t know what on earth my response is supposed to be. So I just shake my head.

Once.

Twice.

A silent, helpless motion—back and forth—like a child who’s reached the edge of language and found nothing there. For a moment, the elder only watches me. Not impatient. N

  • Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate    96 - Resurfaced Pain

    Aya's POVPain hit my chest so hard I thought it would cave in. Then Eros flashed through my mind again so I had to pretend and force myself to stay awake. But my body betrayed me even before my mind could say no. My fingers tightened around my mother instantly. “M-mom…”She immediately pulled back enough to look at me. Concern flooded her expression instantly. “What is it?”I couldn’t breathe properly. The words came out fractured. I have to at least say his name..“Eros.”She stilled.“A friend swapped his life for me,” I whispered. “He’s stuck in the forest…”Shock crossed her face instantly. Real shock.“What did you say?”“E-eros,” I repeated desperately. “Mom save him please..”Her expression changed. It was not only fear. But more than that.. it was as if she recognized him even though it was only a name..My stomach dropped instantly.. So, she knows him. The realization hit like lightning.Mom gulped visibly before trying to steady herself.“He’ll be fine,” she said carefully.

  • Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate    95 - Finally In Your Arms

    Aya's POVWarmth.That was the first thing I felt.Not the violent heat of corruption burning through my veins. Not the suffocating pull of the forest trying to slowly drag me back underground.Just… warmth.Heavy. Protective. Wrapped so tightly around me that for a few blissfully disoriented seconds, I forgot everything. Then my body shifted slightly. Pain immediately followed.A sharp breath escaped me as consciousness crashed fully back in. My stomach twisted violently while exhaustion dragged at every inch of me. Something beneath me moved at the same time.It was of course.. my mate. His wolf form so broad and strong that I feel comfort and just want to stay here forever.I blinked slowly.nDark trees blurred past my vision. Wind brushed against my face in cold uneven bursts while shadows moved rapidly beneath us.Johanis.. I was on his back.Blue and gold energy flickered faintly around us both, weaving through the air like threads of light. In my sleepy state, I thought of it as

  • Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate    94 - The One Remaining

    Aya's POV“No.”The word tore out of me instantly. Raw. Broken. Violent enough that my throat burned around it.But it wasn't me who spoke that.. it was the forest..The clearing had become absolute chaos. Wind screamed through the shattered trees while corruption slammed against it from every direction like something alive and furious. Shadows twisted across the forest floor, writhing between roots and broken branches. The entire forest was shaking now.Not angry anymore.Panicking.Because I was slipping away from it.. And apparently, it would rather destroy everything than let me go.“NOW!” Eros shouted.Silver wind exploded outward from him again, forming a violent barrier between us and the corruption surging forward. Blood hit the ground beneath him immediately after.Too much blood.Way too much fucking blood.Johanis moved before I could even process it. One second he was beside me.The next—A massive white-silver wolf tore through the clearing with enough force to crack the

  • Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate    93 - Eye Of The Storm

    Johanis' POVThe entire north felt wrong. Not quiet. Not calm..Wrong.The moment we crossed the border back into Bloodbury territory, the bond in my chest twisted so violently I nearly lost control of the damn motorcycle.Pain.Not mine.. not Sora's..Aya’s pain.Raw. Sharp. Burning through the mate bond in uneven waves that made my wolf slam against my ribs like a mad beast.Sora was losing his fucking mind.‘Mine.”The growl rattled through my skull hard enough to blur my vision for half a second.“I KNOW,” I snarled back.Ahead of me, Alaric moved through the forest at terrifying speed, the shadows around him bending unnaturally as he tore through the trees. Even from here, I could feel his rage.Not the loud kind, but the dangerous kind.. it was the kind that promised death.We had been moving nonstop since leaving the Frost Court of the North. No breaks. No slowing down. The queen’s words still echoed inside my head like a curse.“They wanted my power. My blood… I realized they

  • Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate    92 - At Least Almost..

    Aya's POV“What the fuck do you mean by that?” I exhaled, trying to make sense of it.Same?Same as me?How is that even possible??!I had just learned I was a fairy. I even thought I’m the last.. or well, maybe there’s a few of us alive but meeting someone right at this very moment?Not to mention.. He had a fucking wolf too!So how is it possible that he had both wolf and half fairy blood??!“We have no time for stories and arguments, Aya.. They are on their way here.”“Who?”“You know who, Aya.” Eros had this annoying smile on his face. “Alaric..” He let my father’s name hang in the air before continuing, “..and your jealous and possessive mate of course.”Then a cheeky smile before—The bond snapped against my chest so hard I nearly staggered. My breath hitched.Johanis.Closer.Not close enough yet—but moving. Fast.The faint pulse I’d been clinging to for days suddenly felt stronger, warmer, alive in a way that made something deep inside me ache.The forest felt it too. As a res

  • Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate    91 - Something Equal

    Aya's POV“How??” I cannot help but ask him.Eros didn’t answer right away. And that— That silence?It made something cold crawl up my spine.Because he wasn’t struggling to find the words.He was deciding how much to say.. and that is much more dangerous.My eyes narrowed slightly. “…How do you know that?”The wind around him shifted. Not violently. Not sharply.But… knowingly.Like it was listening to the question too.Eros exhaled slowly, running a hand through his hair in a way that felt oddly… familiar. My chest tightened before I could even understand why.“I heard it,” he said.“Heard what?” I pressed.“The wind carries things, Aya,” he replied quietly. “Voices. Whispers. Pain.”My stomach dropped.“And yours…” His gaze lifted back to me, steady now. “Yours was loud enough to reach me.”Something in my chest twisted hard. Because that didn’t feel like a coincidence.“…doesn’t explain everything,” I said, my voice lower now. Sharper. “You’re talking like you understand what’s ha

  • Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate    42 - Smoke without Fire

    Aya's POV The principal arrives like a storm that doesn’t bother knocking. The clinic door opens with a sharp crack, and the air seems to change immediately—thicker, heavier, like every molecule is bracing itself. Principal Reed steps inside with his hands clasped behind his back, posture rigid, e
