Dirty Games Off Ice Chapter 162
Alex Mark gave the tiniest smile before letting out a tired sigh. It was weak, but hearing it felt like a miracle. His shoulders slowly relaxed, and the tight grip he had on my shirt loosened. Instead, his hand searched for mine. When our fingers touched, he held on gently, like he just wanted to make sure I was still there. I squeezed his hand back without saying anything. Words suddenly felt too small for everything I was feeling.For a while, neither of us spoke. The room became quiet again except for the sound of his slow breathing. I stared down at him, wondering how one person could make me so angry, so confused, and so terrified all at once. A few minutes ago, I had been ready to walk away from him forever. Now I could not even imagine leaving while he looked this broken. It made no sense, but feelings rarely did.I rested my head lightly against his and closed my eyes for a second. Maybe tomorrow we would fight again. Maybe tomorrow I would remember every reason I should hat

AlexMy hands would not stop shaking as I stared at that paper in the dim light coming through the window. I thought I had it all figured out. The dates looked off, the handwriting messy like someone faked it quick. This fake diagnosis had to be Mark applying for some experimental treatment under his brother’s name to jump the line faster. That was it. He lied about everything to keep me here. I felt this rush of anger and relief at the same time because finally I had proof and I could get out. My legs itched to run right then but I made myself look closer one more time before I did anything stupid.That is when it hit me. I flipped the pages again and my stomach dropped. The papers were real for Mark too. His brother Marcus had the tumor first, real scans, real doctor notes from months before he died. Mark’s own diagnosis came right after that, same type, same progression. The notes about copied symptoms were not some master plan. They were Mark scribbling in panic about his own g

Jax “We have a lead,” Lila said. This time her voice sounded much more serious. “Lily tracked a burner phone. It gave off one signal before it disappeared again. The signal came from an abandoned industrial area on the east side of town. It might not mean anything because those phones are hard to follow, but it’s the only real clue we have right now.”“I’m leaving now,” I told her without thinking twice. “Send me the address.”“Jax, wait,” she said quickly. “Don’t be stupid. Don’t go there by yourself. We don’t know who’s waiting for you. This could be dangerous. At least wait until we get there so you’re not alone.”I ended the call before she could say anything else. I knew she was trying to protect me, but I couldn’t waste another second standing around. If Alex was somewhere out there waiting for help, I wasn’t going to sit in my car waiting for permission. I started the engine and drove away as fast as I could.The drive felt much longer than it really was. Every red light felt

JaxI slammed my fist on the police station counter so hard the whole thing shook. Three days. Alex had been missing for three fucking days and this guy behind the desk acted like I was asking him to fix my Wi-Fi.“What do you mean I have to wait another twenty-four hours?” I snapped, leaning over the counter. “He’s been gone since the warehouse. No call, no text, nothing. That’s not like him.”The bored officer didn’t even look up from his paperwork. “I’m saying someone is saying they saw him less than 24 hours ago walking on the street. Adult male, no sign of foul play, history of volatility. Come back tomorrow.”“Volatility? That’s bullshit and you know it. How are they even sure it’s Alex?! What the fuck!!” My voice got louder. I could feel the heat rising in my face. “I already checked Mark’s place. Blood on the floor. Actual blood. Hospital said he never showed. Even went out to the ruins of his old house. Nothing. He’s gone.”The cop finally glanced at me, eyes flat. “ Watch yo

Alex I chose to stay at least for now because of the fear in Mark’s eyes when he looked up at me from the floor. My legs still wanted to carry me to that window and out into the night where I could finally breathe free but that look stopped me cold. The adrenaline from almost escaping made my hands shake and my heart race like I had just run miles yet the guilt slammed into me at the same time making my stomach twist because how could I leave him shaking and begging like that. This twisted affection I felt for him pulled me back down even though I knew it was messed up and I dropped to my knees pulling his head into my lap as I held him tight.“Mark I am here okay just hold on I got you,” I said fast my voice rough as his body jerked against me. He grabbed at my shirt his fingers digging in hard and gasped out “Alex please do not leave me it hurts so bad right now I cannot control it.” I talked right over him keeping my arms around his shoulders. “Breathe with me come on in and

Alex He kept going until we both finished. Then he pulled me into his arms so we could rest. His body felt warm against mine and his hand stroked my hair slowly. We breathed together for a while. I thought about how much he changed when the pain from the tumor hit him. His gentle touches turned desperate. His loving words turned into fearful cries.But then he woke up in panic when I tried to leave. The struggle started all over again. He pinned me down and we fought on the floor until the seizure came and made his body shake. He dropped the knife and whispered my name with so much pain in his voice.“Alex… do not leave me. I am sorry. It hurts so much. Please stay. I need you here with me,” he begged. His trembling hand touched my chest again. His fearful eyes locked on mine.Mark pulled me close after we finished. His heavy body rested right on top of mine as I felt his heart beating fast against my chest. His breathing slowed down bit by bit until it matched my own. His strong ha

Damien Alex threw his hands up but his voice stayed sharp. “Yeah well your own shit is currently trying to kill you from the inside. Sit down before you fall over genius.” I dropped onto the couch and immediately another cramp hit so I curled sideways clutching my stomach. “Fuck. Okay maybe I ate

Alex I didn’t even make it on time to the financial aid office on purpose. The coach had emailed the whole team some bullshit about “mandatory compliance checks” and attached a spreadsheet with our names and times like we were signing up for flu shots. Mine was 2:17 p.m. I showed up at 2:30 beca

AlexMy phone started vibrating at exactly 7:14 a.m. I slapped it quiet, rolled over, buried my face in the pillow. Two minutes later it went again. Then again. By the seventh buzz I was sitting up, cursing every rich-kid gene in his body, hair plastered to my forehead, sheets knotted around my ank

~Damien~I slammed Alex’s door so hard the shitty dorm frame rattled, but I didn’t walk away. Not even close. I stood there in the hallway like some creep, listening to him slide down the wall on the other side, that little thump-thump of his back hitting plaster, then nothing but his breathing fas
