And then Ace was standing there looking exactly like I remembered except maybe even more beautiful because I'd been starving for the sight of him for so long.

Before either of us could say anything I was moving forward and he was pulling me inside, the door was slamming shut behind us and we were crashing together like magnets that had been fighting against separation for too long.

His mouth found mine desperately and I kissed him back with everything I had, weeks of longing, mi

  • THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME   THEY SEE US. ALL OF THEM

    Chapter 170MaxI sat frozen, the glow of the phone screen illuminating the dimness of the dorm room. The quiet hum of Ace’s refrigerator was the only sound in the space for a long, heavy minute.I kept expecting the screen to refresh, expecting some new wave of backlash or another video, but the feed had stopped. My father's words hung in the air, echoing off the walls, refusing to dissipate."Max?"Ace’s voice was a soft, warm whisper against my ear. His arm tightened around my waist, pulling me flush against his chest. I could feel the steady, reassuring rhythm of his breathing, a stark contrast to the chaotic fluttering in my own ribcage.I slowly turned my head to look at him. His dark eyes were filled with an intense, unwavering devotion that made my throat tighten all over again."He actually said it," I breathed, my voice cracking slightly on the vowels. "My dad... he actually apologized. In public. For

  • THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME   MY SON HAS MY FULL SUPPORT

    Chapter 169MaxI had to put the phone down for a second, pressed the back of my hand against my mouth and stared up at the ceiling, fighting the rising panic in my throat. I breathed deeply through my nose until the tightness in my chest loosened enough that I trusted myself to keep going.Then, with trembling fingers, I picked the phone back up.My mother's video appeared on my feed next. It was the shortest of them all. I wasn't surprised, she wasn't someone who performed emotion for an audience. I had learned that about her during the months we'd found each other. She felt things deeply but kept most of it private, expressing love through action rather than words.She was sitting at the kitchen table of our family home, her hands folded neatly in front of her. She looked tired, yet profoundly composed. I wondered who had helped her set up the camera, likely Maria or Adrian."I don't know how to do these things," she said quietly, gesturing slightly as if the concept of the vide

  • THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME   I STAND BY MAX RIVERA

    Chapter 168MaxI woke up before Ace again. He was out cold beside me, one arm thrown over his face, his chest rising in a slow, steady rhythm.It made me wonder when he actually slept.After the meeting, we’d returned to his dorm and stayed indoors. We weren't hiding; we just needed each other’s company to stay grounded. We didn’t make love, we just held each other close until we drifted off. I lay there for a minute, just watching him the way I sometimes did when I needed to remind myself that this was real.Then, I reached for my phone.Bad habit. I knew it before I even touched the screen. But after yesterday, there was a compulsion I couldn’t shut off, like needing to check a wound to see if it had festered overnight.It had gotten worse. Obviously.Notifications had piled up while we slept, more tweets, more think pieces, more strangers with loud opinions about our lives. I scrolled past most of it without reading. I’d learned over the last twenty-four hours that reading the c

  • THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME   WE WERE DONE MOVING FOR OTHER PEOPLE

    Chapter 167AceThe athletic director's office smelled like coffee and polished wood. The kind of room designed to make you feel small before anyone said a word.Max and I sat side by side on the leather couch, shoulders touching, fingers locking. Our rings caught the light, I noticed it because the woman behind the desk noticed it.Her eyes dropped there for just a second before she looked back up, and that second told me everything I needed to know about how this meeting was going to go.Dr. Eleanor Drew sat behind a desk that was probably chosen for exactly this purpose. It was wide, dark and immovable. She was late fifties, sharp in the way that came from spending decades being underestimated and deciding to make everyone pay for it. Under different circumstances I might have respected that.She didn't waste time."Gentlemen," she said. "I'm going to be direct. The university is receiving hundreds of calls this morning. Donors. Alumni. Parents. The Board of Trustees is in an eme

  • THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME   WHATEVER CAME NEXT, I HELD ON.

    Chapter 166MaxHe pulled back just enough to look me in the eyes. His thumb brushed a tear off my cheek I hadn't realized had fallen."We knew this might happen," he said quietly. "We talked about it at the ranch. The world isn't ready for us yet. But we're ready for each other. That's what matters."I didn't say anything. I couldn't. The words were stuck somewhere behind my ribs, tangled up with everything I was trying not to feel all at once.My phone buzzed again.This time it was a text from my coach.*Emergency meeting with athletic director at 9 a.m. Don't be late. This is serious.*Ace's phone lit up at the same time. His hockey coach. We stared at the screens in silence. The blue light caught the side of his face and for a second he looked tired in a way I hadn't seen before. Not physically tired. Something deeper than that."I'm sorry," I whispered. "I should've waited. Let you have your moment on the ice without turning it into… this."He didn't answer right away. Just loo

  • THE HOCKEY ALPHA WANTS ME   NOT FOR ANYONE

    Chapter 165MaxThe first thing I felt when consciousness dragged me back was Ace’s arm heavy across my waist, his breath warm and steady against the back of my neck. The second thing was the buzzing. A constant, angry swarm of notifications that made the nightstand sound like it was trying to drill through the wood.I cracked one eye open. The dorm room was still dark, the digital clock glowing 6:47 a.m. Ace was dead asleep, face slack in that rare, peaceful way he only got after a championship win and a night of slow, thorough sex. His new platinum ring caught the faint light from the window and sent a little spark through my chest.Fiancé.The word should have felt warm. Instead, the buzzing grew louder.I reached for my phone with the hand that wasn’t pinned under Ace. The screen lit up like a explosion. 347 new notifications. Instagram. Twitter. TikTok. Group chats. Coach’s number. Mom. Sofia. Unknown numbers. News alerts.My stomach dropped before I even opened anything.The

    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

    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
