THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME WHERE ACE IS?
Chapter 148MaxAce wouldn't have missed practice. Not this practice, not this close to the biggest game of his career. This match could determine his entire future in hockey—scouts were coming, coaches from professional teams were going to be watching.Unless..."Did something happen to his dad or Freya?" I asked, my voice tight with concern.Carter shrugged. "Don't know, dude. He just said family emergency. That's all we heard."I thanked them and turned away, already pulling out my phone with shaking hands. If it was a family emergency, why hadn't Ace called me? Why hadn't he told me what was going on?Unless it was so serious he couldn't.My fingers fumbled over the screen as I found Ace's dad's number and hit call. It rang only once before he picked up, his voice tense and worried."Max, have you seen Ace?"The question hit me like a punch to the gut. If his dad was asking me where Ace was, that meant..."No," I said, my voice coming out strangled. "I haven't seen him since this
THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME HE DIDN'T COME TO PRACTICE
Chapter 147MaxThe afternoon at Angelo's had been perfect.Sofia had practically bounced in her seat the entire time, chattering about everything from her new favorite cartoon to the "special pasta" she'd ordered that came with extra cheese. Olivia sat beside her, smiling warmly and occasionally wiping sauce from her face, while two of my other cousins—Marcus and Leila—filled the table with easy conversation and laughter. They didn't ask probing questions about my relationship with Ace or make me feel like I had to justify my choices. They just... included me. Made me feel like I belonged, like I was family regardless of who I loved."Max, are you listening?" Sofia tugged on my sleeve, her eyes wide with mock indignation."Sorry, what?" I pulled my attention back to her, forcing a smile even though my mind had started to wander."I said, can we get gelato after?" She clasped her hands together in exaggerated pleading, her lower lip jutting out in the most theatrical pout I'd ever
THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME LIVE WITH THAT
Chapter 146Ace The phone rang twice before Dad answered. "Ace? Hope all is good? This one you're calling...""Is it true?" My voice came out rough, barely above a whisper. "Dad, tell me it's not true."A long pause. Too long. "What are you talking about?""Max's kidnapping. Freya. Uncle Gab." I was gripping the phone so hard my knuckles had gone white. "Tell me Max's father is lying. Tell me our family had nothing to do with what happened to him."Another pause, and in that silence, I heard everything I needed to know."Ace, let me explain...""Just answer the question," I interrupted, my voice breaking. "Yes or no. Was Freya involved in Max's recent kidnapping?""It's complicated...""Yes or no!""...Yes." The word was quiet, almost gentle, as if that would somehow soften the blow. "But son, you have to understand the circumstances..."I ended the call.My hands were shaking so badly I nearly dropped the phone. The café around me seemed to blur, sounds becoming distant and muffled
THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME IT SHOULD ALL BE A LIE
Chapter 145AceThe Blue Haven Café sat on a quieter corner of Main Street, the kind of place that catered to serious conversations rather than casual hangouts. Through the large front windows, I could see Max's father already seated at a corner table, his posture rigid and formal even in the relaxed café setting.My hands were sweating as I pushed through the door, the small bell above chiming to announce my arrival. A few customers glanced up briefly before returning to their coffee and conversations, oblivious to the fact that my entire world might be about to shift on its axis.He looked up as I approached, his expression unreadable. He was an imposing man even sitting down—broad-shouldered with the kind of presence that commanded attention without effort. I could see where Max got his strong features, though Max's face held a warmth that his father's lacked."Thank you for coming," he said, gesturing to the seat across from him. His tone was formal, businesslike, as if we were
THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME FOR MAX, I'D FACE ANYTHING.
Chapter 144AceRelief flooded through me. "Thank you. Really, thank you.""Don't thank me yet," she said with a soft laugh. I'm sure his parents will come around. But you're right that Max deserves better than what they gave him the other night. I'll do what I can."After we hung up, I finished gathering my gear and headed for the door. Max was lying on his bed scrolling through his phone with a slightly bored expression that made me smile despite my worry.I made sure he didn't hear our conversations."I'll be back in a few hours," I said, leaning down to kiss him goodbye. "Try not to miss me too much.""No promises," he said, pulling me down for a deeper kiss that made me seriously consider skipping practice after all.But I forced myself to pull away and grab my hockey stick. "I love you. See you later.""Love you too," Max called after me as I headed out the door......I was almost to the athletics complex when my phone buzzed with a call from an unknown number.I almost didn't
THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME I'M IN
Chapter 143 AceThe morning light filtering through my dorm curtains felt too bright, too cheerful for the heaviness that still lingered between us from the night before.Max was already awake when I opened my eyes, lying on his side watching me with an expression that was equal parts tender and troubled."Morning," I said softly, reaching out to trace the line of his jaw with my fingers."Morning," he replied, catching my hand and pressing a kiss to my palm.We lay there for a few moments in comfortable silence before I couldn't hold back the question anymore. "What exactly did they say? Last night, I mean."Max's expression shuttered slightly and he looked away. "Ace...""Please," I interrupted gently. "I know it was bad. I can see it in your face. But I need to know what we're dealing with."He sighed heavily and rolled onto his back, staring at the ceiling. "They said a lot of things. Most of it doesn't matter.""Max...""My father and mother were very... insistent," he said fin
THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME MAX, YOU'RE SO OBVIOUS
Chapter 20MaxThe walk back to my dorm should have cleared my head. Instead, all I could think about was Ace's smile on the ice, the way he'd looked at me in the parking lot, the warmth in his voice when he'd said "thanks for coming."I was so lost in thought that I almost didn't notice them until

Chapter 11MaxThe pain was everywhere.It started in my knee but spread through my whole body like fire. I couldn't breathe right. Every time I tried to move, the pain got worse."Don't move him!" Coach Williams was shouting. "Get the trainer here now!"I heard footsteps running, voices talking fa

Chapter 15MaxI wanted to say something else.Something that would make him stop. Make him turn around and finally give me the answers I needed. But I didn't know what those words were.He stopped with his hand on the door handle but didn't turn around.The panic in my chest was getting worse. If

Chapter 16MaxI didn't move, I just stood there holding the clothes he'd thrown at me, trying to process what was happening."I told you last night not to come back," I said.He looked at me with those dark eyes and for a second I saw something flicker across his face, hurt maybe, but then it was
