CASSAIN

I keep my hand lightly on her back as I guide her toward my car not because I don’t want to touch her but because if I do it the way I want to, I won’t stop at all.

“Aretha,” I say without turning, already opening the passenger door for Eve. “Give us some space.” She means well and she shares the same name with Evelessa’s wolf which is probably why they bonded straight away I can’t tell.

Aretha pauses. I can feel her eyes staring daggers behind me.

“Space,” she says slowly, like it lea

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 238: WEDDING

    CASSAIN "Shit..how do I survive everything at once today?""You can postpone the wedding you know?""No way. Do you want her to change her mind?""Ugh..if you weren’t both my parents I'd be concerned at your insane level of obsession with her but she is my mother so.."Game day. Wedding day. Somehow, the universe decided it was a great idea to cram both into the same twenty-four hours.I wake up before the sun. My muscles ache from practice yesterday, and my mind is buzzing with strategies, not just for the match but for the rest of the day—the ceremony, Evelessa’s face, her dress, the looks she’ll give me, the chaos inevitably waiting in the wings.The arena smells like leather, sweat, and anticipation.I take a deep breath, feeling the pulse of the crowd before I even step onto the field. My team is ready, eyes sharp, adrenaline primed. We all know what’s at stake—honor, pride, and yes, a wedding that’s waiting on the other side of victory.The whistle blows. The game starts.I mo

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 237: GIFT

    CASSAIN I have a rule when it comes to wedding preparations: keep it clean, precise, and dignified.Today, that rule is being tested.I’m in Maison D’Or, the finest tailor in the city, white marble floors, polished brass fixtures, mirrors everywhere you can see every angle of yourself, and soft classical music that whispers “wealth” without needing to shout it. I’ve been looking forward to this: the moment I finally choose the suit that will say to the world, I am marrying Evelessa, and yes, I own every second of this room.I’ve walked past racks of suits lined up like soldiers on parade, fabrics shining under the lights. My tailor, a man named François, has been hovering politely, making notes, asking questions. It’s perfect. Peaceful. Until my phone buzzes.I glance down.A text from one of my so-called “business partners,” the type of man who apparently thinks being rich also makes you creative in problem-solving.“Congrats on the engagement! Sending a little celebratory entertain

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 236: WEDDING DRESS

    EVELESSA “I hate this already,” I mutter.“You haven’t even tried anything on,” Alexis replies, completely unbothered as she flips through a rack like she owns the place.“She’s right,” Aretha adds, sitting down dramatically like she’s about to watch a live performance.“I’m here for entertainment.”“You’re pregnant,” I remind her.“And?”“And you’re supposed to be supportive.”“I am supportive, you were the one who got screwed into saying yes so just deal with it” she says.“I'm here for the drama.”Of course she is.I pinch the bridge of my nose.“This was a mistake.”“No,” Seraphina says calmly.“This is necessary.”I turn to her.“Why?”“Because you are getting married.”“I’m aware.”“And you need a dress.”“I also own dresses.”“Not this kind.”“She’s right,” Lira chimes in softly, her hand resting protectively over her babies.“You deserve something special.”I glance at her.At the quiet glow in her eyes.At the softness she’s carrying now.And I sigh.Because fine.Fine.I ca

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 235: EXPENSIVE APOLOGY

    ALEXIS“Say that again.”I don’t look up.I don’t blink.I don’t even pause the line I’m writing.Because if I do I might actually laugh.Or worse—Engage.And I’m not in the mood.“I said,” the voice repeats, louder this time, “this room is needed.”Still not looking.Still writing.Still unimpressed.“By who?” I ask.Calm.Flat.Bored.There’s a pause.The kind that expects recognition.The kind that assumes importance.The kind that usually works on people who care.I don’t.“By me.”I sigh.Set my pen down.And then I look up.Finally.Slowly.Deliberately.Because if someone is going to interrupt my class—They should at least earn my attention.He’s… polished.Expensive suit.Perfect posture.Confidence that borders on arrogance—No.Not borders.Lives there.Breathes there.Owns property there.And judging by the way he’s standing?He thinks this room is already his.“How unfortunate,” I say.He blinks.Just once.Because that wasn’t the response he expected.“Excuse me?” he as

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 234: ESCAPE

    EVELESSA “Again from the top!” the choreographer calls.I don’t respond.I don’t need to.My body already knows.Already moves.Already follows.Because this?This is the one place I don’t have to think.No war.No shadows.No power plays.No expectations.Just movement.Just rhythm.Just me.My feet glide across the floor.Precise.Sharp.Controlled.Every turn intentional.Every step exact.Every breath timed.Because dance isn’t just art.It’s discipline.It’s control.That’s something I refuse to lose.“Evelessa!”I barely hear it.A distant echo.Irrelevant.The music swells—And I follow.Spin.Dip.Rise.Again.Again.Again.“Evelessa!”Louder this time.Closer.Still ignored.Because I’m not here.Not really.I’m somewhere else.Somewhere quieter.Somewhere simpler.Somewhere I don’t have to think about everything waiting for me outside these walls.The song ends.But I don’t.I keep moving.Because stopping?Means returning.Means remembering.Means feeling.And I’m not read

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 233: WAR

    SERAPHINA The house has never felt like this before.Not even during war.Not even during loss.Not even when I hid my grandsons from things that wanted to devour them whole.This is different.Alive.Watching.Waiting.“She’s close,” I whisper.Michael looks up immediately.“How close?”I don’t answer right away.Because I’m listening.Not to sound.Not to movement.To something deeper.Something ancient.Something that doesn’t belong to this world yet, it is forcing its way into it.“Now,” I say.And everything changes.The walls pulse.Not crack.Not break.Pulse.Like the house itself has a heartbeat.And it’s syncing with hers.With Lira’s.With the child.“Everyone in position,” I command.No hesitation.No questions.Because when I sound like this isn’t practice.This isn’t caution.This is survival.Aristotle is already there.At her side.Of course he is.His hand wrapped around hers tightly, steady and unyielding.“Stay with me,” he murmurs.Lira doesn’t answer.She can’t.

  • THE TRIBID HOCKEY GOD & HIS OBSESSION   CHAPTER 24: JEALOUSY 2

    EVELESSA The music starts before I’m ready.Which is ironic, because I’ve been ready for this my whole life.The stage lights dim, then bloom into gold and shadow. The floor beneath my bare feet is cool, grounding. My body knows this space. Knows how to breathe here.My partner steps beside me.Ja

    EVELESSA I don’t realize how loud the world has become until I’m alone in the absence of Cassain, I'm hardly ever anywhere these days without him.My dorm room is quiet, but everything inside me hums. The mark at my neck isn’t burning. It’s not aching. It’s just… there. A steady reminder. Like a p

    CASSAIN The council chamber smells like old stone and arrogance.I walk in anyway.Mara’s father is already there—Lord Vaelor—draped in silk authority and practiced disappointment. The rest of the council sits in a half-circle, ancient beings pretending they are here not taking sides while choosin

    CASSAINThe first notification hits while I’m in a meeting.I ignore it.The second buzzes five seconds later.Then the third.I look down at my phone and see my name trending in a private campus forum.That never happens.I excuse myself without waiting for permission.The hallway outside is quiet
